Yugi: but this isn't fair! Paradox: I'm glad you understand

[@phoenixgemini42]

It seemed fair to me. If they played this way, yugi would have removed his monsters all the same and jaden and yusei would just both attack directly for game.

[@josegregorio4135]

3 turns vs 1 turn is equally unfair unless the boss have incredible broken cards (not the case of paradox who have an incredible mediocre deck even compared with the neo hero unga bunga salad of jaden)

[@Silverdragon83X]

Paradox: You remember Season 1 and that you simply played how you wanted?

[@rwg6357]

Its like he is the villain or something setting the rules in his favor

[@N12015]

@@josegregorio4135 Or Yugi's overreliance on other vanilla level 7 with other Salad of easily disruptable combos. Still better than Paradox, but Yusei is the only one with a somewhat serious deck there... No wonder why he was asked to play first.

Mark Welch Raid duels is not the same. Raid duels is still 1v1 but you work with other players. This could be a good one for Duel Links because since it’s speed duels and no field sharing, this means the boss has 12k life points.

[@ff10fire666]

This sounds like a pretty cool idea. Konami can we have a proper yugioh story base rpgs. Where we have boss battles with bullshit advantages. Give us the tag force elements of levelling up and cash to earn and buy boosters. With a compelling story. Hell make it a time compression story where you can play/fight with your favourite main characters.

I would absolutely love to team up with Yuma and Astral, or Yugi and Atem! Even Joey would be a blast to hang with. But if they ruined it with too many gacha elements, I wouldn’t touch it.

[@bluemew22]

Play the Nintendo DS 5Ds WC games. The storyline bosses have conditions like • 2009 - Defeat Safe Return Zombies, Ice Barriers, Lightsworns, and TeleDad all in a row on 1 set of LP. • 2010 - Let the Earthbound Immortal be Summoned or you have to do the Duel over, no Spells allowed because Aki's psionics are going berserk, and both players start with 0 hand • 2011 - Face a burn Deck that starts with 10 cards in hand while chained down by the tag system with Infernities as your partner.

[@roguerebel66]

Actually, if you think about BBT, its actually a variation of a tag duel against a boss, the three duelists just swap out after every turn, which explains how they are able to use eachothers cards (IE: jaden fusing neos with junk Gardena to make neos knight)

[@z-one5941]

If we get Boss battles for Arc-V and Vrains, they'll probably be Zarc and Bohman.

[@wyrmshogun5245]

Zarc maybe, but instead Bohman it may be Ai

[@majorBearsky]

@@wyrmshogun5245 boss duels primarily use anime exclusive cards so it'd most likely be Bohman or Light

[@demonfigs3309]

It would have to be someone other than Z-ARC since practically all his cards exist. Bohman I'm fine with but they need to print his damn cards already

[@GiftOfKnowledge-np9vg]

@@demonfigs3309 Most of Pegasus' cards exist too. It's mainly about what you can make the most broken kind of challenge withing the boss duel rules. With Z-ARC for example, that would probably involve a 4000 ATK ace that's just normal summoned, which summons 2500+ ATK monsters when it destroys something, and maybe the hidden effect is it can also do that in response to an Extra deck summon. Add in that Trap that destroys 4 cards in the opponent's hand and you've got a boss Duel I don't think anything else in Arc-V could beat.

[@dracoblizzard7944]

Bohmans deck is too weak and also has WAY too many cards. Probably would be light or Ai with the anime arival cyberse and some other stuff they come up with. Most likley light cause he's easiest to make.

[@MattTheHer0]

So the three players play master rules and the boss plays rush duels boom thats the rules

[@afish2281]

Boss duelist: *does anything The 3 challenger duelists: *each revealing hand traps, preventing the boss duelist from doing anything.

[@StarGazerTom1991]

I used to be a TO a few years back, and found out about these and used them a few times. For such small decks, they're really fun to use aswell as play against, as it's a damn near constant struggle against one another (though the boss usually wins). Wish there was more stuff like this for the game.

[@alexdhroso9022]

The fact that the Don Thousand deck contains the two Numbers with 10.000 and 100.000 ATK is pretty dope. P.S: A good boss deck would be an Orichalcos Deck with Shunoros and Divine Serpent.

[@U1TR4F0RCE]

I think for 5ds and especially for don thousand you probably want to at least know the whole 10 000 and 100 000 atk situation and build a deck based partially around that.

[@QuanBrown27]

@@U1TR4F0RCE Exactly! 👍

[@GiftOfKnowledge-np9vg]

@@U1TR4F0RCE Hmm, that kind of makes we wonder, are you told which deck you face before the boss duel? I'd kinda hope not because that lack of knowledge is a whole other disadvantage for the players that they'd need to overcome with balanced decks and a variety of strategies, especially given the unique strategies and disruption methods each Boss Deck has. Man if they had only made a few more Boss decks, I could've seen this be a really fun, challenging, & popular game at events.

Boss Duels always reminded me of the Archenemy decks in MTG, where one player plays an overpowered villain deck with special rules VS multiple opponents. I wish they sold Boss Duel decks, or maybe included cards from them in booster packs at random.

YES I 100% agree with that, those archenemy battles are really fun....when you play the vilain lol

[@surgeofgaming6405]

They should make an official commercial ruleset for the current TCG/OCG for Boss Duels. Since it was very clear that both Konami and the Consumers wanted to keep finding different ways to play this game. Something that a lot of other TCG’s don’t seem to do at all from what I noticed.

I was trying to implement something like this on my city, but instead of anime cards I was thinking on banned cards or pre-nerfed cards while wearing a costume of a Yugioh Monster, sadly I didn't have the budget for the costume and covid-19 killed the rest of the idea.

[@matthewwilliams8267]

You should use this time to perfect the Boss Duel. Your idea, combined with official Boss Duel Rules, could make for an interesting Tourney like duel match. Like, you play one match (3 duels with 3 different duelists) then fight a Mini Boss (which'll be a Monster Boss, most likely the dueter- antagonist's Ace. Then the next 3 rounds, with the final duel being against a Boss. So, D1>D2>D3>MB>D1>D2>D3>Bss

[@oresti9271]

0:12 yes Pegasus made it to smash bros 😂

[@soulburner8095]

As DLC Character xD

[@pikagammerpluspizza7478]

I feel like a special version of this event could be done with a Zarc themed event with a few extra additions: *For the Duelists* Any of the defeated duelist can rejoin the duel during the Boss' End Phase, as long as they rejoin with a completely different deck & at least one of the other duelists is still alive before the end of the boss' turn-- BUT the duelist rejoins the duel with only 2000 LP. *For the Boss(Zarc)* The Deck has 13 cards instead of 8 & will have an Extra Deck. Start with Supreme King Gate Zero, Supreme King Gate Infinity, 2 Supreme King Dragon Darkwurms & Astrograph Sorcerer (With a changed effect to use the supreme King Dragons versions of the Dimensional Dragons instead of the original 4). Its 1st deck card will be Supreme Face-off, the 2nd deck card will be Supreme Disdain, the 3rd deck card will be Supreme King Dragon Odd-Eyes, & the 4th deck card will be Supreme Rage. Zarc's Extra Deck will have Supreme King Dragon Starving Venom, Supreme King Dragon Clear Wing, Supreme King Dragon Dark Rebellion & Supreme King Z-ARC. Z-ARC will have this secret (Quick) effect: Once per rotation, Destroy all cards in the duelist's Spell and Trap Card Zones. And I don't even what to think of what an AI's version of a boss deck would be.

[@jonathanmasters8895]

Anyone actually want a series of bioncle boss duels on the channel?

[@NinjaPieceLOL]

One of my favorite duels in the whole franchise is Yuma vs Nistro and Dextra. I love it since the villain is always the boss, but here it's the hero as the boss. Is this the only time this happens? I haven't seen anything past Zexal. Also, Astral isn't there until the end, so we get to see how much Yuma's skills have grown. It's exciting watching Yuma hold his own when he's outnumbered like this. He only needed Astral's help to deal the final blow.

[@joshuaponder1775]

After watching this video I immediately came up with an Earthbound Immortal boss deck that I thought was pretty decent. For those who are interested, the cards are as follows: Start 1.Earthbound Geoglyph 2. Call of the Earthbound 3. Offerings to the Immortals 4. Roar of the Earthbound 5. Ultimate Earthbound Immortal Card 1: Earthbound Whirlwind Card 2: Earthbound Wave Card 3: Earthbound Immortal Aslla Piscu Edit: I think any Earthbound Immortal could work for this deck, but I chose Aslla Piscu because It was the only I have and is my personal Favorite.

[@sigmaenjoyer7020]

Might as well put Wiraqocha Rasca in there with it's anime effect which is unaffected by spell/trap card and can put their life point to measly 1 point by skipping battle phase. I remember in Earthbound Immortal arc in 5ds, Yusei and the others form 3 team to fight Godwin which is perfectly fit this format.

[@darkstone_official_2427]

I feel like bosses should use a boss deck that uses cards from the anime. Like Don-Thousand plays the exact way he would from the show, with each card in order stacked to his liking. Granted they already do this with the 8 cards and they are allowed to use said 8 cards infinitely in loop, but I feel like having more varied and separated effects would make the duel more interesting. So you know, that when the boss throws down 3 face downs in a single turn, that they're not screwing around anymore and if you dare attack, you'll pay a heavy price. And I'm also sure that each boss has their own difficulty level. Like Don-Thousand being the biggest and baddest of them all, while Pegasus is more annoying than threatening. (PS. I didn't pause to read all the card effect text on screen, so I don't actually know who has the most op abilities or if they're all balanced. Don't eat my head off.)

[@MvpNew]

1:12 ... I love the bionicles you've used here!! I'm geeking out lol

The Enforcers vs Goodwin is a much better example of Boss Duels, since it went Crow, Jack, Yusei, then Rex, in that order

[@gameramaproductions]

at my uni locals we did a long running boss deck event going on, but we actually had to ban some decks or cards that could easily beat some of the bosses one of them was graydle! 3 players made quick, cheap graydle decks specifically to fight bosses. the boss decks are very small but they can't deck out and they just recycle their deck, however as you saw some decks have very low monster counts. the 3 graydle players stole all the monsters from the bosses deck so they couldn't just recycle them as usual and then they won attacking the boss with their own op anime effect monsters :P

[@J_BYYX]

2:41 Well, that was unexpected :D

[@n.henzler50]

Sounds like it's time to print up some proxies. I always loved the concept of Archenemy in Magic (okay, so I really just loved hamming it up as a cackling villain), and this is basically that, but in Yu-Gi-Oh.

[@supremekingend8644]

I actually played boss duel with my friends but with a little different We used anime exclusive and custom cards but only the boss can use them You can't use alternative win conditions And it's more like zarks battle and the turns are like Paradoxs duel And each player has a special custom skill it could be whatever as long it's not a alternative win or inflicting over 4000 damage And the boss gets a second skill And if a challenger losses their cards wouldn't leave the field

[@dustinlocke7693]

i did something like this a few months back, at the fairly small local's i go to where i was the said "boss" with only a life point boost (setting me up with 14,000), with a blue eyes chaos max deck. my one of my two friends ran a masked hero deck (which was probably the harder one of the two) and a the other ran a pretty generic dragon deck, lets say, i probably made Kiaba proud

[@AyaanThe0ne]

I would like this at tournaments. For example, 1st, 2nd and 3rd place goes up and do a boss duel to the person in charge.

[@mishtamoose8308]

I actually used to play this with my friends back in the day before covid. It was really fun. We'd get one guy with a super meta deck, and we'd use our fun rogue decks. They'd get a ton of LP (Usualy 30 thousand) and we'd get 8000. It was the best before covid happened.

[@elijahtrent21]

You know things have gotten serious if a Boss Duel starts.

[@babysinclairfan]

Boss duel sounds cool on paper but it wasn't that great in practice due to the odd rules. The bosses are a little too broken for what is supposed to be a casual format geared toward kids. Beating the boss depends less on skill and more on knowing its weaknesses going in, which kind of defeats the purpose.

[@willropa4226]

This is more like the final duel of 5Ds season 1, Yusei, Jack, and Crow vs Goodwin.

[@archmagemc3561]

It seems like toon decks would own a lot of these bosses besides boss #2, with boss 2 being weak to meta decks. But I think chain burn would be also fairly strong, since dimension wall bypasses basically every effect in the game that isn't a blanket negate.
