I would love an archetype based on 5 headed. Each head could be a main deck monster add some spells and traps that generally work with dragons and get cumulative effects for different attributes.

Would a Five-Headed Blue-Eyes White Dragon fit in this category? Like, it could be a fusion monster and its materials could be five blue-eyes dragon monsters.

[@s.plissken_91]

Although a cool concept, I don't think blue eyes would fit with Kaiba's business rivals. I can see a new master of dragon knight though. Maybe any blue-eyes monster + any chaos monster.

Five-Headed Dragon: Only a Light Knight can kill me. Magical Musketeers: Hold my beer.

[@JTK_XXL]

In our childhood, we used to believe that you must use Darkfire Dragon, Metal Dragon, Serpent Night Dragon/Red-Eyes and two other dragons like Curse of Dragon, Tri-Horned, Seiyaryu, Hyozanryu, Tyrant Dragon, Luster Dragon, Thousand Dragon etc. in order to summon it. We argued why a certain dragon can or can't be used lol

[@StonedHunter]

Honestly the more I've gotten into DnD, the more I'm noticing all the references and inspirations in YGO, especially in the earlier years. Kind of surprised no one has made a TTRPG based on Duelist Kingdom or the game talked about here yet.

[@aaronwishard7093]

Because Konami, in all of their infinite greed, hasn't realized the lowest hanging fruit that people have been begging for. And yes I genuinely have heard people say they'd want some variant of Monster Quest to be made into a real game.

[@StonedHunter]

It's always stupid, short sighted greed that keeps us from having nice things... >:( Screw it, I'm gonna jot this down and see if I can't homebrew something unofficial when I get time lol

[@TheBeardedCaveman884]

Another major issue is, in the U.S. at least, DnD is the largest and only reasonably respected TTRPG 'of the mind', and it's also owned by Wizards of the Coast, who own Magic: The Gathering. As much as I know we would all love to see an official yugioh module for DnD, it's like saying you want to see Kratos in Smash bros., it's just not happening. If Konami did strike a deal with another company to simulate ygo in ttrpg, it would be a massive risk on their part, as not only would it require development of a whole new system, which would take years, but it would *need* to be supported for multiple years afterward to see any profitable returns. At least, if we're being honest. While it sounds like greed, it's business basics, especially for a large corporation like Konami, a few bad moves and a failed risk could put the whole company on edge. Now, if somebody wanted to develop a basic system for the ttrpg, and then bring it up to konami executives, if they'll even listen to you, that would be the best way to go about it. You see, corporations require something tangible most of the time, before they're willing to put any of their own effort into it. Boards don't like fantasies, and that's what this would ultimately be for them. And now I have some ideas involving GURPS and my massive collection of cards...

[@lilsunny7399]

i mean, the original concept by Takahashi himself in the Manga was a card game called like, Magic and Wizards or something. I forget the exact translation. But suffice to say i don't doubt there's some kind of DnD/MtG inspiration behind it. MtG did debut in 1993 after all, 3 years before the Yu-Gi-Oh! Manga.

[@aaronwishard7093]

@@lethalButters You're aware that figure you're quoting isn't annual revenue, but total revenue correct? Otherwise you're absolutely right. I make the same argument with Pokemon all the time. They can afford to make mistakes and misteps, because they have so much money that a normal person would be set for their entire life if they had that kind of cash. Even then being in the top 25 highest grossing IPs of all time, the vast majority above them being Disney, and Nintendo. Konami could easily splurge.

[@jasperjavillo686]

Ideally, the Link Monster would be used as a final push to deal with all the opponent’s remaining cards on the field. It could work in something like Dragonmaids or Dragon Link, assuming the latter has enough dragons of various Attributes. Ideally, the maintenance cost wouldn’t come into play as the duel would end the same turn it is summoned.

[@TheSparkray]

Dragon Link usually only runs dark and light attribute dragons

[@austinsmith6014]

This could be used in a Fur Hire deck. They can get all these Attributes out relatively quickly with their summoning effects and trigger effects.

Five-Headed Link Dragon's summoning condition is very easy to meet, since it just requires any five monsters at minimum, so you can abuse token strats with him. He's the main monster on my kuriboh deck and I've had the chance to play two on the same turn on Master Duel. It's crazy seeing opponents try to remove it by any means and failing due to being unnafected.

Looking at a video on Five Headed Dragon, it makes me think there’s potential for a “Was The Big Five about to defeat Yugi and Joey?”. One instance is when Nezbitt takes over from Johnson; had Johnson got another turn, used his deck master’s effect to banish all of their monster’s, destroy Mirror Force with Heavy Storm and attack Joey directly with Machine King defeating him. Yugi would be at a huge disadvantage at this point and would likely loss.

[@phtuber5469]

Yugi would definitely lose in that scenario, because he would not be able to summon the mirage knight or the dark magician knight without Joeys help, and he doesnt have Slifer in this duel, so I really dont know what he could possibly do against Five headed dragon on his own.

I realized something, if Arc-V had a ritual dimension we could have had a new version of the 5-headed Dragon using the 5 dimensional dragons (Pendulum, Syncro, Xyz, Fusion and Ritual) as material, in fact, the Dragon of the Supreme King Z-Arc could have been a 5-headed dimensional dragon. Actually, even without the 5th, the Z-Arc Supreme King's Dragon could have been a 4-headed dimensional dragon and it would still be very interesting.

[@BrothaJdogg]

I’ve loved this series for a while now, but this is Egyptian God level of Divine timing. Yesterday my D&D group had our 4th to last session of what’s been a four-year long campaign where Tiamat was revealed as the final boss. Edit / Update: We defeated her!!! And fittingly enough, one of the contributing factors to our win was the arrival of a sorcerer / paladin of Bahamut NPC we’d befriended halfway through the campaign who happened to be a young platinum dragon in disguise!!!

[@andrewng5167]

5-Headed Dragon was an incredibly strong monster when it first came out, but as the years followed, monsters evolved with crazy skills and other cards and archetypes also evolved. Some players can special summon 20 monsters on just 1 turn with no problem. Certainly, 5-Headed Dragon can’t compete with that.

[@ngoyette94]

Due to the massive summoning requirement and lack of protection for spell/traps it wasn’t really strong at all when it came out. It was too much investment for a card that could be stopped by mirror force, fissure, dark hole ect

[@MasterArchfiend]

Back in the day I used to include FHD and Dragon’s Mirror in basically all of my Dragon decks as a sort of emergency ace. As time has gone on I use it less and less, even in decks where I could conceivably use it with ease. I should make a deck for it, if for nothing else than for casual nostalgia.

Great video overall. By the way, can you please do archetype videos for the Nekroz and D/D/D's as well please.

I wish there was a supporting archetype for five headed dragon, that would be "dragon of elements" like Singe, dragon of elements, Noir, dragon of elements, or other dragon of elements which if you use them for a monster that mentions at least two attributes on it with at least one being their attribute and the other being any other attribute besides light or devine, they give an additional effect to that monster with there being baby and adult versions of the "dragon of elements" and there wouldn't be a light one or a devine one to prevent unnecessary chaos support, and their spell and traps are similar to the Charmers but only can be used on cards that mention at least two non light or devine attributes, and they give the pseudo archetype element a boost as well as desert twister. That would be a fun deck to experiment with in my opinion

[@vinnythewebsurfer]

Funny thing about Blue eyes and Bahamut is that Bahamut is the father the metallic dragons of dnd which are typically order aligned and benevolent monsters as opposed to their chromatic brethren that are varying degrees of chaos/evil. Blue eyes often gets joked about looking more and more metallic/robotic over the years in new artworks but really it just cause that’s how the metal dragons of DnD are like with the platinum white dragon, Bahumut standing above all others; gold silver, bronze and copper (amongst many others)

[@neildamonjones2956]

The following text is from the Yu-Gi-Oh! wiki page, "Card Storylines" Petit Dragon began his journey becoming the familiar of Wynn, gaining more power as they both grew stronger. One day he decided he wanted to be able to breath fire, so he sought out a plant to give him this power. However, once he ate the plant his body ignited, and he was turned into a vicious dragon. Bent on becoming a more threatening force, he combined powers with four other dragons, making them all become nearly invincible, until the day when they were defeated by a powerful foe. The knight sealed Darkfire Dragon's soul inside a sword. This sword was then wielded by the Flame Swordsman.

Fun fact, for those that don't know, the dragons that were used in Duel Monster Quest are: -Red Eyes Black Dragon -Curse of Dragon -Harpie's Pet Dragon .....and of course, the Big 5s Mythic Dragon. (Yes, Blue Eyes was also used, but it was later tributed for the fusion summon of Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon) Making these 8 dragons the perfect power boost for Dragon Master Knight, since it has base 5000 attack point, each of those dragons gave 500 additional attack points to the ultimate beast. 4000 points worth, giving Dragon Master Knight 9000 attack. Yes, Mythic Dragon is a combination of different types of dragons, each with their attributes, however their individual head forms had their power sucked into DMK, 500 points for each. Finally, its worth noting that although Curse of Dragon, along with Gaia the Fierece Knight, was used to Ritual Summon the OG Black Luster Soldier, it also had its power added to DMK.

The Mythic Dragon

[@exclusiveextremo5799]

i know it would a hell of long video, but i would love to see one about the blackwing archetype, it's my main archetype

[@MrDarksol]

So FHD was a reference to Tiamat while Blue Eyes may be a reference to Bahamut. That sounds really cool but now I am imaging what would happened if Kaiba met Bahamut and HE became his ace or Taimat. What am I talking about Kaiba's soul would never allow any other dragon to steal his heart other then Kisara I mean Blue Eyes lol. Still very interesting trivia TGS!

5:11 is really dope, because I was wondering if I would be able to use DNA surgery and Super Poly to fusion summon 5 headed dragon in master duel

[@rexorchid9745]

Ah Elemental HERO Neos. He just loves charging in to punch his enemies, even if they are a sky scraper in size comparison to him.

[@holydiver4988]

well on the topic of elemental dragons, it'd be cool if you covered the dragon rulers & true kings and the parallels between them as well as lore

[@tradingplague2]

I will admit I remember this dragon from the Capsule Monsters arc being the 2nd to last big bad before the final villain battle

[@tajadoleternal5514]

I would like to have a fusion dragon base from blue and red eyes I will call it the duality dragon maybe.

[@TotalEvo7]

There were actually 3 warriors that defeated the 5 Headed Dragon in the Virtual World Arc between Yugi and Joey: -Dark Flare Knight -Mirage Knight -Dark Magician Knight

[@jdturnier8539]

I had no idea It was inspired by anything related to Dungeons & Dragons as well as Blue Eyes White Dragon. Insane!

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Sacred Cards...JESUS! How addicting the classic Game Boy game was, and inserting the 8 (9?) code numbers of the old school Yu-Gi-Oh! irl cards into the game by a Gameshop machine.

[@johnweber80]

I remember owning the sacred cards, and having to use Slifer and trap cards in order to beat it. I even made Slifer an unstoppable beat stick using mountains and having as many cards as possible b4 summoning it. The next turn is was flipped as a 9000+ atk and def wall.

I feel like 5 headed link dragon is like a "I need something to be stronger than there boss monster" and probably for late game plays
