The Egyptian Gods Explained in 39 Minutes [Yu-Gi-Oh! Archetype Analysis]

[@randymarshislorde]

The Egyptian God Cards legit singlehandedly ignited my imagination in regards to Yu-Gi-Oh. Those 3 creatures are imo some of the coolest and most epic entities in anime history imo

[@Anthintendo]

So, GoldenNova didn’t point this out, by I noticed this a while ago: All of the EGs have a blue sphere on its head. Even Obelisk, though it’s a little hard to notice since it’s the same color as the rest of him.

[@maximefourton7155]

Yes ! Horus, Nephtys and The Creator also have them, its a pretty neat thing to tie the "gods" together. Not anubis sadly.

to add to that: slifer's eyes are yellow, ra's and obelisk's are both red. also in the alternate art that is signed by Kazuki Takahashi, obelisk's head orb is actually red/purple

[@Magna_Dragon]

25:47 Wicked Ball is a reference to sphere mode, since in the manga art it changes into a monster (and some artworks of it includes some small dragonhead below)

[@pokeperson1000]

To be honest, when god card support was announced a few years back, I was really hoping that there would be cards like Slifer’s Disciple and Obelisk’s Disciple that had modernized effects functionally similar but slightly different from Ra’s Disciple. Like perhaps Slifer’s Disciple could add 2 more copies of itself to hand, or maybe even copies of the other Disciples, and Obelisk’s could… I dunno, recycle or revive other disciples from grave on summon? Look, I don’t know what would be thematically appropriate effects, I just know that I wanted god disciple cards. X(

[@Gerjoker94]

Or one of the Disciple Counts as 3 Tributes and you can do an additional normal Summon of a Divine Beast and in the Grave you can Banish it to get the Feld spell. Something like the sacred beasts got.

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

So from what I see, the biggest hang ups of a god card deck are You need to build your entire deck around them You need to be able to pump out the tributes and/or make use of their limited usefulness in being special summoned You need to be able to search them out to summon in the first place AND you need to be able to shrug off any opponents disruption at least one So let me try to come up with a card that can do all of this well enough, critique me if you have anything to say: _Chosen Of Truest Divinity_ Equip spell _The monster this card is equipped to deals piercing battle damage, and cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects of monsters with the same type and attribute as it. The monster equipped with this card can be treated as two or three tributes for a tribute summon, but you cannot summon extra deck monsters while this card you control is out on the field. Once per turn (quick effect) you may banish three monsters from your extra deck with a matching level/rank facedown; add one monster from your deck or GY who’s level is equal to the level/rank of the monsters banished. Once per turn (quick effect) when you have a level 10 or higher monster in your hand, you may reveal it to your opponent; until the end phase of the turn you activate this effect, you can negate one card effect. When you tribute the monster this card is equipped to for a tribute summon, equip this card to the monster tribute summoned, and it gains original ATK/DEF equal to the combined ATK/DEF of the monster tributed. If you would tribute summon a Divine-Beast or “Wicked God” monster while using the monster equipped with this card as tribute, cards and effects cannot be activated, and your opponent flips all cards on their side of the field facedown._

[@xCorvus7x]

Since Ra is above them, Slifer/Osiris and Obelisk do not strike me as gods with prominent religious following and the Musketeers of Face have basically become Osiris's pendant to Ra's Disciples by now, so only Obelisk is lacking similar support (curiously Obelisk is the only on of the three who has actually seen tournament play; memelords who side deck Ra to counter an opponent's Sphere Mode don't count).

[@m4y013]

@@Gerjoker94 the pharaoh right hand Normal monster 500 atk 1500 def Can't be special summoned When tributed to summon any Egyptian god card it'll count as three copies of itself When send to the gy you can banished it to add 1 copy of any Egyptian god card to hand

[@Miguelon88888]

That's actually pretty good, I feel there should be specific equip spells like divine evolution where it gives obelisk 1500 attack and it's unaffected by monsters with same level or lower or 4k or lower original attack. That would make the gods so good. Also another continuous spell to protect mound of the bound. Or make the god cards immune to destruction or targeting. Even better, make the the gods that also cannot be tributed.

[@mayday2237]

a couple frustrations with slifer and ra aside, the egyptian gods have stuck with me as a set of cards astoundingly well balanced... for a simpler time than their current support came out

[@yusheitslv100]

8:25 Something I noticed when Thunderspeed Summon was first revealed, you're supposed to get Slifer off of it because it searches a ? ATK monster, which Slifer is, and the Three Musketeers of Face Cards is a Yugi archetype…like Slifer.

[@TheJcjonesacp]

It basically is now a slifer tribute engine in addition to their level 4 warrior gimmicks with a lot of recycle into hand and the ? Search as well as the symbolism of each of the three knights taking something from being around a god card (arcana homer, the new queens knight upgrade has that card in hand power for instance)

@@dans780 yeah in dsod Kaiba straight up ignores Cubics against Aigami because “This is no monster! It’s a GOD!”

[@xCorvus7x]

@@dans780 It's interesting how the story handled that. There basically were special rules to the game that established a hierarchy among the monsters/cards: Ra was at the very top, Osiris/Slifer and Obelisk were right below him, and all other monsters were below them. If I recall correctly, except for some special cases the Gods were immune to effects of monsters below them and were only affected by (targetting?) spells and traps for a single turn. This means that Ra was immune to Obelisk and Osiris, while Obelisk and Osiris were only affected for a single turn by each other's effects, and is what gave us their suicide after being special summoned: during that part of the story the only way to special summons the gods was by using spell/trap cards (notice how this immunity is active everywhere including the graveyard).

I wish more cards for the Gods said “this card cannot be negated.” It doesn’t matter as much as you think: negation isn’t the only way to deal with cards, destruction, being bugger attack, etc. but ignoring negation is such a rare effect and makes such good flavor on the Gods, or even just Obelisk.

[@MilenAnessar]

At this point of the game, I think giving Osiris(Slifer) and Obelisk their full Anime/Manga effects ain't even too broken anymore. They'd be just right amount of power and protection for mega boss monsters nowadays. Unaffected by S/T but still a little bit hard to summon and have no negates shouldn't be too much. Not Ra tho, there's no way to fit all those original effects into one card. XD

[@MasterSwo]

They couldn't even fit all of Ras effects in the anime! So they definitely had no chance of pulling it off in the tcg!

[@carpedm9846]

They could put a link on the ra's card text that sends you to an article titled "Hubris."

If the card design of the god cards are like that of the pendulum monsters then they could possibly put those effects just like the Endymion pendulum monster. 😅😅😅

10:09 I just wanna point out, Effect 5 has been misinterpreted by GoldenNova. Effect 5 is only the tribute thing. You can very much tribute 2 monster and attack for 4k the same turn. 29:50 Reactor Slime does not tribute itself to make tokens. You have three monsters, not two

[@SSBBPOKEFAN]

I just have to ask: If Timaeus the Knight of Destiny on the field at the same time as The Wicked Avatar, go both of their ATKs go up forever like a Super Saiyan parody clip?

[@CarDaMax1770]

I am not 100% sure about this ruling, but I believe that the Wicked Avatar wins that battle. This is because Timaeus' effect is a quick ignition effect that changes it's ATK to match the highest ATK on the field, while the Avatar's effect is continuous. What this means is that once Timaeus' effect has finished resolving, it's ATK will be "set", and it will not recalculate itself again. Meanwhile, since the Avatar's effect is continuous, it automatically recalculates whenever there's a new highest ATK on the field so that it's always 100 higher. Thus, if Timaeus and the Avatar battle, the former will activate it's effect to match the highest ATK, then it will inmediatly be surpassed by the latter by 100 points... but it will remain on the field since it can't be destroyed by battle anyways.

[@carpedm9846]

@@CarDaMax1770 yeah this is correct. There is no way for any monster to beat The Wicked Avatar. Even if you have 50 battle traps and attack modifiers, Avatar's effect overrides them all, as a result, its attack "technically" can not be reduced unless the monster with the highest attack has left the field. Question is, how does Wicked Dreadroot interact with such effects? It is also a continious effect, so if you for example had a monster with 1000 attack(used to be 2000), and then used Honest while battling Dreadroot, does it get to 5000 or 2500?

Without taking my Jewish heritage into account, I think Yu-Gi-Oh has played the biggest role in why Egyptian mythology is my favorite ancient mythology. The symbolism, the God Cards, Egypt-themed archetypes (some of which I like playing). Hell, a good chunk of season 5 takes place in Egypt. (There is a reason why I want Hieratic to get support beyond just a decent retrain of its boss monster that fits Egyptian mythology and a bad Rank-Up spell that can't be searched.)

ngl I didn't think much of Ultimate Divine-Beast when it was announced, but when playing Master Duel the solo mode duel with Poker Knights Slifer vs "Bakura" w/ Necrofear & Destiny Board, I managed to put both Slifer & UDB on board by the second turn before Destiny Board got set up and they basically won the game for me. It still took something like 20 turns because they played Dark Door turn 1 and I didn't draw S/T removal for ages and because Slifer was out they kept setting their monsters to keep them from just dying to it's effect. They could stall but they couldn't establish the wincon because Destiny Board has to activate to make any progress which makes it nukable by UDB. It's amusing to me how the support that features Slifer in it's art hard countered Bakura's battle city strategy.

[@stephenmalvar1169]

In the YGO Arc V tag force I tried once experimenting Slifer with 1. Black Garden - it's token generation for tribute summon - attack decreasing effect when monsters are summoned (excluding flip summon and Slifer's tribute summon) 2. Monarch support cards - effects advantageous to and for tribute summoned monsters 3. Wicked Dreadroot - all face up monsters' attack are halved 4. Generic support and effect negation cards included in the game. It's kinda tedious, and the deck is not going to have synergy but it was just one of those gimmicks I wanted to try for an iconic YGO card. 😅😅😅

In master duel, I have an ojama deck that runs three slifer and two soul crossing as a tech option. Ever since I saw the duel logs play a deck like that, it was apparent that ojamas could spam out card advantage thru ojamagic and could get a lot of tribute fodder on the field thru ojamassimilation, plus thinning out the deck w things like the ojamatch and ojamassimilation vanish effects to cycle thru cards in deck to draw slifer and crossing. The end boards I can put out tends to look like an abc dragon buster for quick play banish disruption, four negate appoloussa, and attack mode slifer w usually 3-4k attack, having a really powerful floodgate effect to really make enemies pull their hair out. Super satisfying to pull off but the whole board dies to a dark ruler no more or forbidden droplet unfortunately, or even the sphere mode ra lol

Also once I managed to bait out Dragoon's negates, so I could summon Ra using god slime and the anchient chant to get it to 3K, then pay my lifepoints to boost it higher, and attack over it for victory.

11:05 Only if the game has to succeed economically. If it was just a means of recreation, as well as an artistic enterprise that could be managed more leniently thanks to official funding, new cards wouldn't have to outclass older ones.

Horakhty or holactie? If i did remember yugi say Horakhty not holactie

[@yusheitslv100]

Either way, it references Re-Horakhty, one of the most powerful gods in Egyptian mythology. Basically, make Ra and Horus do the Fusion Dance. You get a being whose name means "Re, Hur of the Two Horizons". (Re and Hur are Ra and Horus's names in ancient Egyptian, respectively.) It exists because Ra/Re is the sun god, the sun is in the sky, Horus is *a* sky god, and Horus's eyes were said to be the sun and the moon. I personally go with Horakhty because of the cultural connections, but I'm not sure what it is officially because it never got a TCG printing 😭

Card advance for true name

[@venexo1434]

2:56 sneaky tfs reference

[@yusheitslv100]

What?

[@spsfitnessstrudley7718]

Every is going to say blue eyes or dm they are the ogs the gods where massive but wouldn’t say they where most iconic

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

0:43 YES! Kuriboh third most iconic card let's go! Eat your heart out Dark Magician Girl. The horny fans couldn't compete with the fans of the furball

[@literallygrass1328]

Egyptian god card!

I'm sorry that I'm not that good with cards but "The bigger the hand gets, the bigger he gets." THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID

[@maximillianleaf5997]

question would monster reborn reborn be a viable option to discard?

[@lovingthepastpresentandfuture]

It would need to say “a “monster reborn” card” for that

[@john5511]

Video deserves a small update I'd say

[@carolynbossom2297]

Couldn't Convusion of Nature help with The True Name?

[@skeletonwar4445]

It technically would, but then you'd be playing an otherwise completely dead card that's also unsearchable just to boost it

[@598019001]

Honestly, I would have said blue eyes or kuriboh

[@thecowboyofoklahoma5866]

I wonder if they'll ever (not likely) fix their effects to make them stronger since they're now some of the most mediocre cards. Beside Ra, he's been nerfed to crap since his debut...

[@williamseim7206]

I woulda said kuriboh but I thought exodia would be up there

[@JC.AEP2]

For slifer just infinite cards and maxx c

[@davidchung2203]

Geez the Egyptian god cards are still powerful 😅

[@Uglier.]

I remember I got a Xbox Yugioh game cuz it came with a Winged Dragon of Ra😅

[@Creon692]

"It's not a monster, it's a god" ~ Seto Kaiba. The creators intended the God cards to not be counted as monsters, yet ya'll let MTG players muck it up. It went from always having a God card to never playing it.

[@23gameoverlord]

Okay real talk the real cards feel like a very hard down grade from their anime counterparts, cause I personally believe that...the Sacred Beast are better. MOSTLY because the Sacred Beasts have unified support cards, personalized supports, and main deck & extra monsters that side them in their game plans even with assorted tech picks.
