Vespacius, being a Sea Serpent, more so implies a relation to prehistoric marine reptiles like Mosasaurus, given the fins.

[@dracoblizzard7944]

Perhaps because it is a lv 7 and a new card it is a combination of a croc and a plesiosaur

[@VanishEclipse4867]

I just realized something, Gladiators in history were warriors battling in the Colosseum for glory and to entertain the audience. They are basically back in the day, entertainers who brings excitement to the masses through combat. Not only that, the Gladiator Beasts were brought into the anime in Arc-V through the duelist Battle Beast using a deck based on warriors whose sole purpose is to entertain people and revel in their achievements through violent means. He was put up against Yuya who is an entertainer and uses the Entermate Deck which is based on circus entertainment that along with Yuya's philosophy of entertaining people without using violent means. If Battle Beast knew what the idea of the Gladiator Beasts were, he could have became a major foil towards Yuya where basically both are different kinds of entertainers using decks based on entertainment with philosophies that clashes with one another. Also it's a clash between a practitioner of old-style entertainment vs practitioner of modern entertainment.

[@lukesadler8151]

17:46 in my opinion I think gladiator beast Augustus is based on the cockatrice a mythical wyvern like creature with a head of a chicken his red side Finn things could be a reference to red things seen on chicken heads and maybe it's effect to special summon other gladiator beasts monsters in defense position could be a subtle reference on how like medusa the cockatrice can turn people to stone it would make sense giving some of the gladiator beasts are based on other mythological animals from Greek mythology

[@nintenx1235]

I play GBs and got 4th at my locals where a lot of people play meta Extremely underrated since they can set up at least 1 negate and can control your opponent’s battle phase consistently turn 1 They are best going second though since they have cards like gyzarus and bestiari to break boards and can play a fair amount of hand traps They also have really easy access to rank 4s and by extension the utopia double OTK They are also just super fun

[@thaddperkins]

6:45 CRIXUS!!! If you like gladiators I HIGHLY recommend Spartacus. It’s a STARZ original but it’s also on Netflix

[@yugioht42]

Gladius is actually a certain type of curved short sword that was common in Rome and Italy. It was designed to dismember not kill but it could be used for that. It was a sort of a machete with a slight outward curve but straight in the back.

[@danielramsey6141]

Really wanted to make this deck back in the day. I loved their designs and how incredibly versatile they're effects and powers were. But I never could get the full deck back then, it was just too frustrating to pick up the cards, either from packs, trade, and/or buy. Thankfully I didn't need to, once I got my Summer job and got paid, I got enough money to buy myself the Best Set: Light of Destruction! And feel in love with Lightsworns! That Deck was Soo Good! It was fun, strong as hell and really pushed the game! With Judgement Dragon being on of the Best Boss Monsters I've Ever played with (at the time).

[@blackwingBF]

My cousin's main deck back in the day. It was so strong... I could only win him IF he had 5 face down traps(which uses to protect the in battle) and I destroy them with giant storm or something(back in the day it wasn't on the ban list).

[@graylienz8317]

I found this video looking for a Gladiator Beast deck list after ten years of not playing and found this... I really enjoyed it.

[@willnack5315]

1) 11:39: Veggietales song from “Daniel in the Lion’s Den” found in the first movie, “Where’s God When I’m Scared”: “I am King Darius, I had a dreeeeaaaamm! And now I’m feeling rather frightened and I wish someone would tell me what it means!” 2) 12:30 one would expect that one to be a hippopotamus! 3) 13:42 what, no Tommy reference?! He’s my mom’s favorite Power Ranger! 4) 16:10 and in the anime, he was a victim of Zorc and the Millennium Ring 5) 17:16 should’ve been an octopus, both because of the Oct in the name and in reference to Doc Ock 6) 19:27 we do thanks to Phineus and Ferb! 7) thank goodness there’s no Gladiator Beast based on Caligula, we don’t need that creep anywhere near this game!

[@chaosrex1487]

I can see it now: Gladiator Beast Caligulus. He'd be an octopus because..you know why. While we're at it, why not throw in Gladiator Beast Commodon. Commodus was very famously fond of gladiatorial combat so it's actually pretty surprising he's not in here. If we can have a reference to as terrible an emperor as Nero then I don't see why not the emperor that literally died in gladiatorial combat. He'd be a peacock because Commodus was fond of very flashy displays while not being a very great fighter.

Impressive video and TGS Anime if I’m remembering my history right, though I’m more than likely wrong so please take this with a grain of salt, gladiators who fought with nets along with other weapons was so that the nets were used to target an opponent’s legs in some fashion to immobilize them to then go in for the kill

[@acwolf92]

I was just recently imagining you doing a video on the Utopia series.

[@lauraking8577]

Me (Chris King):Here is what I think Rank10yugioh would say about the Gladiator archetype: "They're neo spacians but cooler and better". And in a way........they sort of are. Since the Gladiators can special summon their fusion monsters fusion materials unlike neo spacians (which is a missed opertunity in my opinion) when said fusion monster returns to the extra deck. It's weird how the neo spacians - the archetype that created the contract fusion macanic - fails to make it effective where as Gladiator does what neo spacians do but better. Dispite that this archetype is really cool.

[@TheKpa11]

That sounds right, I also wonder what gags he would include with other monster cards popping up or anime clips showing up

[@theroyalt-rex7664]

Great video man! I'm kinda new to this channel so idk if you've already done the archetypes that I'm recommending but I really love it if you did the qliphorts, artifacts, and dinomists archetypes! They're a few of my personal favorites! Thanks!

[@cario5265]

**Duel Links Meta intensifies**

[@TheKpa11]

Laquari stood out the most to me in the anime and when compared to its other beasts, that flame ring made me think it was a bigger deal like a boss monster, but it also looks like if that Tiger were to move even the slightest bit, it would be burned by its own ring, a little too easily, maybe if that thing could be launched and of course be turned to act like a defensive type of object, I could get behind that, but then again that's something that only the anime and maybe an artwork would have to show

[@TheSandwhichman108]

I like the theme of working together as there gimmick of contact fusion also plays into it as well. For example how normally you need a fusion spell and two or more monsters for a fusion summon so while cooperation it’s not true cooperation as they require a fusion spell to merge together how ever gladiator beasts use contact fusion which could be as the truest form of fusion summon true cooperation.

[@nightmare0931]

something I give TGS Anime big cred is 1: not only make a archetypes interesting but also show cards i never know was in that archetype 2: all the details on some cards you never put in minds (like colors) 3: the story of some cards (like some has history behind them) 4: and the biggest one all the investigation he put in every card (what the name means, what it's inspirations is baste on and so on) sure 3 and 4 you can say is the same thing but still

Probably the one of the strongest and easiest to understand free Structure decks you can get in Master Duel, It doesn't have spell&trap removal by default though, but for start doing the challenges and getting CB points for cards and winning duels serves quite well.

[@harryf9885]

Great video! Given that Vespasius is sea serpent type I think that it is either based on the salt water crocodile or a plesiosaur. Plesiosaurs are prehistoric animals that could sometimes look similar to crocs but are usually distinguished by their very long necks, something that vespasius has which isn’t very croc-like along with the orientation of his teeth. Plesiosaurs didn’t really have back spines though so idk

Best archetype. Before my deck was stolen I made a Glad-Beast deck that has only ever lost to Dragon Rulers, Turbo Lightsworns and Chainburn decks (The deck of cowards).
