RA vs DARK NECROFEAR (Marik vs Bakura) Yu-Gi-Oh Theme Duel!

[@TeamAPS]

*WHICH OF THESE TWO YU-GI-OH VILLAINS IS YOUR FAVORITE?* 👀 Edit: Also sorry for lack of music! It got overlooked in editing. Might try to edit in some battle ambience with KZbin's editor, though!

[@gothicfemboy428]

Bakura he is so cool. He just don't care and he knows he will win

[@FlyingPhoenix813]

Bakura, and Bandit Keith. Both didn't give af. Bakura goes all out, and throws all his humanity away while Bandit Keith is literally up to shoot someone, lol. May I add Bakura actually kills Pegasus, and takes his millenium eye. As for Bandit Keith he would of for sure shot Pegasus.

[@gothicfemboy428]

@@FlyingPhoenix813 they should do bakura vs bandit keith.

[@FlyingPhoenix813]

@@gothicfemboy428 Definitely. That would be epic.

[@nicbentulan]

As duelists, probably Bakura since Bakura has more alternative ways to win eg destiny board. But then again Marik does really tame the winged dragon of Ra in such a beautiful way. Maybe slightly Bakura. As villains hmmm...maybe about the same.

[@justanothermichigander4683]

Paul: cool as a cucumber, just here for a good time Alec: unabashedly living out his dream of being a yugioh villain

[@whatiskensworth]

Yeah the way Alec lays on the anime cheesiness gets me every time, lol. Living his best life forreal

LMAO "That's only game 1, Marik" "What do you mean?!" Imagine them doing this in the anime

[@LonShevu]

"And now Winged Dragon of Ra! Banish him to the shadow realm!" "Wait a second, it's best-out-of-3." "But... but I already awkwardly fused with this god monster..." "And now you come back down here and we start the next round." "This is... BULLSH*T!"

[@lashedsuns4529]

I love how he totally channeled his inner Marik for this duel.

[@omegamysterio3701]

We're just missing the insane bootleg Yami yugi hair, crazy eyes, the constant maniacal laughing after every move, using his demonic powers to create a shadow game, and of course that psychotic face with his tongue sticking out! 😂 He had too much fun being the villain in this duel 😂

[@xCorvus7x]

including the luck

[@elsavic]

Make a 4 way duel with Marik, Kaiba, Yugi and Joey modern themed decks!

[@spierball]

I lover the part where Marik attacks Vorse Raider with his (weaker) Newdoria. And then when Newdoria dies he says something in the lines of "you fell for my trap, by destroying Newdoria i can destroy youre Vorse Raider" I found it realy funny because Marik himself attacked...

This was absolutely one of the most entertaining duels on this channel especially with the three tails flip in the first duel.

[@kissfreak21]

I just absolutely love Alec's personality, he brings these duels to life, and Paul is just an absolute treasure of a person

[@jollytosty]

Paul has that knowledge. Alec has the showmanship. Good duel

[@orangetuxedoman]

Big Agree, these guys just wanna have fun, and they do, and then we have fun too, fun is infectious

[@th5154]

Wow this was actually insanely entertaining!! You guys should do more anime-themed duels with self-built decks! It was very balanced and fun!

[@SamTrollazo]

That second game was sooooo intense!

[@Duelists-Den]

That last one was CLOSE!! I love Alec’s charisma when he duels He had me cracking up there at the end lmao

[@patcrawford8840]

Good to see people evolving. You’re on these character duels. Alex has his series. I’m just happy yugitube isn’t just deck profiles like it used to be

Alec or Alex Cimo?

[@JoshTheHod]

@@DemonFox369 dear god please, anything but cimo

[@mr2oxking]

I’m thinking of getting into the yugituber game where the focus is character deck building based on how the characters would actually build their decks with the real life TCG card pool and explain why I think that plus working towards creating a character deck larping format

Arise chicken, chicken arise.

[@sheldonmatthews4807]

You ever watch the abridged series?

[@steved2510]

The Dark Necrofear deck definitely held its ground pretty well against the Ra deck for sure. That’s pretty impressive to do. I feel Bakura’s deck could wipe out pretty much everyone with no problem with a couple more dark sanctuary’s added to make sure it gets on the field.

[@FNS941]

and if he had dark door it would have been better since he didnt attack that many times

[@Afxtey]

Alec is really in his element with these, love it

[@cupidaquarian]

he's a cool dork

[@SparkSJH1]

I was hoping for this after the character starter decks and now we're here, WOO! GO BAKURA GO

[@FantoSunbae]

Bakura: "I link summon a monster!" Marik: "...We playing the same game right?"

[@markopolo9936]

These two were always my all time favourite villains. The bit where bakura says: ‘I AM the darkness! You’ve not seen the last of me…’ That’s when I knew he was part of something bigger than everyone that we had seen so far.

[@Max_Haus]

I love to see theme duels of old characters/cards in a new and modern way!

[@nicbentulan]

Genius way of putting it: 'modern way'. It's not just old decks but also with some new stuff like a little links or xyz. Best of both worlds.

[@geraldbantolino3475]

Thanks, for also putting the card on screen + description. I really love it when i understand what is the whole effect of a card rather than explanation.

[@PirateFeZ]

It's really fun to update the old decks with new cards! Alec is always entertaining, perfect to pilot the Marik deck, and I always enjoy how formal Paul duels.

[@drewtoya8015]

“I can’t read!” Has me in stitches. That was great improv! This has me loving yugioh again

[@arnice2570]

Alec is such a treat. He's unapologetically having a good time with his pal and I love it.

[@DarkSymphony777]

Like the touch of no music, really brings the idea that Marik and bakura would prefer there be nothing but the sound of the opponent screaming

[@mickyrourke2890]

Somehow, Dark Sanctuary is even more broken in theme decks than in the anime. With no cards to remove traps and spells, the fact that Alec pulled off that game 1 victory is crazy

[@alecfields1153]

It doesn't matter who wins the duel! I'm clearly more evil than Paul 😈

[@Crabby.1]

Lol

[@Giru]

Well, he also illegally took control of your card-inmune Ra ;)

[@thegameguardian7812]

I play Mystic mine

[@Borchert97]

How is your Ra deck looking since they came out with the new support? I hope you added 3 copies of “The True Sun God” and also 3 copies of “Pot of Prosperity” just for the consistency boost you get from it. Loved the deck you used in the duel, I have a Ra deck myself I’ve been working on.

[@Billy-ot8mk]

Always loved Bakura's Occult deck. Great job guys.

[@renatofurquimvry]

This was my absolute favorite episode! Bakura’s deck is sick, I also enjoyed the deck improvements so it wasn’t just a bunch of vanillas beating each other lol. Great duel!

[@c1gomez19]

Man... yugioh would be so much cooler if all decks had just about this amount of "power level". Enough to have good sinergy and combos but still modest enough for you and your opponent to actually play the game and not have every turn be a game of negates

[@Sanguivore]

Yeah, that'd certainly be nice. Hopefully they start moving in that direction again someday, somehow.

[@mateuszsm8568]

Just throw away all link monsters and make errata to xyz monsters - they should not use monsters which can't be tributed/used for synchro summon. This would remove some staple moves. Plus maybe we should restrict number of hand traps?

[@ashharkausar413]

Great duel and I liked that you guys put a more modern spin on the decks. It was great to see WDOR come out so consistently!

[@Luna02VGC]

Absolutely love this! Marik’s deck was my favorite as a kid. It’s what made me love the gravekeeper cards.

[@steviewylde]

These types of decks are fun to watch not meant to be meta but not completely terrible. Keep it up guys.

[@SickleFlix]

This was my favorite duel out of all your videos. I love how much you get into character. I hope you guys keep making more of these perhaps Mai Valentine v.s. Joey Wheeler?

[@teamyodaygo]

I love it No one scooped or raged quite or said you got it Both Duelist took their losses like Champs

[@WeDogsHowl]

My favorite thing in these duels is when Alec get shocked by a play and momentarily breaks out of character to question what happened. His reactions are just the best!

[@Rayquaza911]

11:19 idk why it's so funny how Alec chuckles "good" then makes a serious face while yelling "DRAW" lool

[@renaldyhaen]

Usually RL YGO looks boring, but you guys can make it interesting. I love how you explain all of the card's effects in a very effective way. So, I can understand what happened and what you guys are doing. Especially when you play with "unpopular" cards, your explanations are very helpful.

[@RealTeamTeamTeam]

"This card will spell your demise!" "I can't read!" I fucking laughed. This was quite possibly my favorite duel in the anime. Love to see it!

[@theoldone7070]

Dude i dont watch yugio, i dont play, yugioh, i know only basic rules, but im enjoying watching this two men play the game

the fact that this man won off of Destiny Board is awesome

Only just started watching the video but damn, Alec’s really getting into character. I get the feeling that he loves playing ‘anime bad guy’.

The triple coin flip gamble was great. Ever consider doing a Jaden VS Aster Phoenix duel? Elemental Hero vs Destiny Hero!

[@avenguard9503]

You know, never seen this channel before, and I find everyone that duels uses a PC game for the matches, and I got to say, I really enjoyed watching just an old school battle with actual cards. Somehow, this just feels more satisfying. No stupid ass OTK decks where someone takes 10hrs for their turn and then just wins. This was just some straight up dueling and I loved every second.

[@Khaliando]

Paul: “an L for your L!!!” Alec: “NOOOoooooo” 😂😂😂🤣😂

[@Lostinsanity4]

Bro that was a great duel! Had me into it the whole time! Out of the 2 I'd definitely have to say marik because he was way more ruthless on sacrificing people to get where he wanted to be.

Man I love watching you guys duel IRL Feels like I'm watching a IRL Yugioh show (that I always dream of)

[@driftingswordsmanzer]

I always liked Bakura in the series, his shadow games were unique. Also there is a video by mercury falcon, state that basically Bakura is a walking devil man reference, which is a awesome reference. Plus Bakura came back during the last arc cementing his importance in the series. I’ve always thought that bakura made a great villain mirroring Yugi and his bond with Atem, but built the opposite through fear on Ryou as Thief King/Zorc where Yugi and Atem had trust.

[@shonaestrada6993]

that first duel was the best, you both got your boss monsters out quick

[@kye615]

Paul is a really good duellist Alec goes this deck isn’t just about ra but when Paul done the combo to stop the monster reborn of ra Alec says I can’t win Bkux that deck is all about ra ..!!!

[@Mt.Berry-o7]

This was an awesome match, I really like how you built the theme decks to really facilitate the gameplan of each strategy while keeping it pretty balanced. On a small side note, knightmare cerberus can only target special summoned monsters, so it shouldn't have worked on the 1900 atk volcanic monster.

At 38:13 Necrofear takes control of Ra, but earlier that turn, at 37:02, Alec had used Blaze Canon, so Ra was still unaffected by card effects that turn, meaning Paul shouldn't have been able to steal him :) Great duel, love the personality!
