Feels like a lot of the cards that end up being "worsts" of almost any subject are always some of the very obscure anime cards that when translated to the TCG were made completely useless from the start.

[@MarioMastar]

Duel links kind of mitigates that a bit since it's based on the anime and usually has skills that help cover the weaknesses in some way, so if your favorite card is Javelin Beetle, you don't have to just suck it up as everyone mocks you for using it, I'm sure Weavil has some effect that boosts insect monsters in a way to make it stronger and maybe win a game for you. That's the nice thing about Duel Links.... there's always a way to make your favorite monster work, even if you win like 1 out of 100 games with it.

[@bigdaddyjh2002]

Best level 1 is probably Magical Scientist.

[@MarioMastar]

I think there are over 10,000 cards in the game, not including alternate card art. Though many have similar effects in a vacuum except with "works with this archetype instead of that archetype" there's always something to talk about when it comes to certain sets, and sometimes lists can change over time. like "Yeah back then this card was awful and unplayable, but Konami updated the banlist and now you can FINALLY play this card and it's actually pretty good thanks to modern support." or like "This card USED to be awful, but pendulums made it so much easier to put on the field, it's actually worth playing in a good pendulum deck." Hence a stronger emphasis on the summoning restrictions lately. cards locked into the past that will never be unlocked because you simply can't play them without choosing to use a rock club with rope over a chain mace.

[@uuh4yj43]

[@Pepperknight341]

When a Level 8 vanilla with 0 ATK/DEF has more utility than these.

[@MarioMastar]

Hehe that's kind of why in "Worst ofs" you can't realy just list all normal monsters cause the immense normal support always makes them somewhat more useful. and similar for 0 attack/def since a lot of effects out there can easily summon monsters with lower than generally 1500 attack and particularly 0 attack and defense if you find the right card. So the criteria generally is: - must be an effect monster - the effect has a summoning restriction or is a net negative - can't be special summoned through any means but the summoning restriction - must have above 1500 attack if level 5 or above so it can't be cheated by Mystic Tomato. - must have ZERO protection. - must not be part of an archetype that uses it or is part of an archetype that can't make use of it's name (had to throw that in because simply BEING a Blue eyes/Red Eyes/Gladiator beast make those normal monsters way stronger). All those traits are something Normal monsters have... even by default, they recur quite easily.

[@trentonalbers3981]

Actually, Chaos Goddess was not the first Synchro to require specific kinds of monsters as material. Avenging Knight Parshath was released with the first Synchros in The Duelist Genesis and it took 1 tuner + 1 or more non-tuner Light monsters.

[@brianaguilar8283]

She’s the first to predetermine what type of tuner she requires

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

3:46 Idea for a Chaos Goddess retrain to make it more convenient, BUT rewarding players for using specific materials: _Chaos Divinity_ (DARK) Level 8 Fairy/Synchro/Tuner/Effect 1+ Tuner Monsters + 1+ Non-Tuner Monsters _While face-up on the field, this card is also LIGHT-Attribute. If this card was Synchro Summoned using a LIGHT Material; You can Special Summon 1 Level 5 or Higher LIGHT Monster from your GY or Banishment. If this card was Synchro Summoned using a DARK Material; You can Special Summon 1 Level 5 or Higher DARK Monster from your GY or Banishment. You can Send 1 Level 5 or Higher LIGHT or DARK Monster you control to the GY; Special Summon 1 Level 4 or Lower LIGHT or Dark Monster from your Hand.

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

0:30 So if the Non-Effect Ritual Monster HUNGRY BURGER of all Monsters can get some modern support (WITHOUT even a personal retrain on top of that), then Javelin Beetle should get itself something: _Javelin Scarab_ (EARTH) Level 8 _Insect/Ritual/Flip/Effect_ _FLIP: Normal Set 1 EARTH or Insect Flip Monster from your Hand, Deck or GY._ _You can Ritual Summon this card with "Javelin Scarabs Pact". This card's name becomes "Javelin Beetle" while in the hand, Deck, GY, or on the field. If an Insect Monster you control attacks and destroys a Monster by battle, it can attack again in a row. If an Insect Monster you control attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage. If an Insect Monster you control destroys a Monster by battle: You can add 1 Insect Monster who’s Level is equal to or less than that Destroyed Monster’s Original Level/Rank/Link to your hand (From your Deck.)_ ATK/2550 DEF/2450 _Javelin Scarabs Pact_ Ritual Spell _This card's name becomes "Javelin Beetle Pact" while in the hand, Deck, GY, or on the field. This card can be used to Ritual Summon (From your Hand or GY) “Javelin Beetle”, or, if you already control a Face-up “Javelin Beetle”, any number of EARTH or Insect Ritual Monsters, either face-up or in face-down Defense Position.. You must also pay LP equal to the Level of the Ritual Summoned monster(s) x500 (when this card resolves). During your End Phase: You can banish this card from your Graveyard; Ritual Summon 1 EARTH or Insect Ritual Monster from your Deck or Banishment. You must also Tribute monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels exactly equal the Level of the Ritual Monster you Ritual Summon._

-Why is it a Flip Monster? How are you getting it face-down?- EDIT: Ignore this comment. Leaving it for context at least.

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

@@hiimemily THERE, made an adjustment to the Ritual Spell to allow for Facedown summoning.

4:28 Not really. There's some monsters that require somewhat specific materials, most notably that weird synchro that requires a dark tuner then a beast. 7:00 I agree with that statement. That didn't prevent Bubbleman from seeing competitive play though, due to the power of absolute zero, future/miracle fusion, and being a level 4 water warrior that could special summon itself; in short, the same reason people used Neos Allius, but water instead of light and special summon instead of normal support.

8:20 Ideas to Retrain this card and the Fusion Monster needed to bring it out: _Blue Flare Dark Knight_ (DARK) Level 6 Warrior/Fusion/Effect 1+ “Flame Swordsman” Monsters + 1+ “Dark Magician” Monsters _This card is always also FIRE-Attribute. You take no battle damage from battles involving this card. If you would take any effect damage, you can lower this cards ATK or DEF (Your choice) by an equal amount instead. If this card’s ATK or DEF become 0 by this effect, banish it. This card gains ATK/DEF equal to any battle/effect damage you inflict on your opponent. If your opponent destroys this card by battle or card effect, or if this card is banished by its own effect(s): You can special summon 1 level 8 LIGHT, DARK, or FIRE monster from your hand, deck or GY, ignoring its summoning conditions, but it’s banished at the end of the turn._ ATK/2200 DEF/800 _Mirage Knight of the Glassed Desert_ (FIRE) Level 8 Warrior/Effect _Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must first be Special Summoned by the effects of a Fusion Monster. While in the hand, Deck, GY, or on the field, this card is also LIGHT-Attribute. Can attack all Monsters your Opponent controls, once each. During damage calculation only, this card gains ATK equal to the original Total ATK/DEF of the opponent's monster it is battling. During the End Phase of a turn this card attacked or was attacked: Banish this card. You can pay half your LP, then take this Banished card (Quick Effect); Either Add it to your Hand, Shuffle it into your Deck or Send it to your GY._ ATK/2800 DEF/2000

I actually play a fun goat format deck that uses Mirage Knight. The deck utilizes Soul of Purity and Light as an easy Level 6 Main Deck summon alongside Metamorphosis into DFK or any of the "better" Level 6 goat-era Fusions. For added shenanigans, Dimensionhole and a few other cards are actually capable of keeping Mirage Knight going, along with still being useful for some other shenanigans. It's not the best goat deck by any stretch, but it's still quite fun, especially when it gets going the way it wants.

Digimon......... why are most of the Ultimates and Megas either humans or robots in armor?.... heck even Patamon and Gatomon just turn into humans with armor. though at least Gatomon eventually turns into a dragon so that's cool.)

[@nicolaistuhlmuller8718]

Still pretty awful honestly. You're still using resources to cheat out dfk and all mirage knight does is destroy one monster, then selfdestruct. It's basically Exiled Force with thousands of extra steps, and that's not worth the potential 2800 damage (also opponents would just use their Sakuretsu Armors on Mirage Knight instead).

[@cloudstrife532220]

Tyrant Burst Dragon also enabled Drill Barnacle 0TK in Duel Links

[@MarioMastar]

Yeah, the fact that the card to summon is unsearchable doesn't necessarily make it bad. Being able to attack multiple times with any monster equipped and on it's own is pretty useful with the right cards. You just build your deck around pulling off the effect. I'd have personally put this one at number 10 instead of where it was, cause even though Javelin Beetle is easier to search, it's a vanilla ritual card with rather middling stats for the effort put into summoning it. The only real benefit it has is if you have the ritual card, a level 8 and the card itself and really want to facilitate a rank 8 xyz play, Javelin beetle IS easier than Tyrant Burst dragon..... but a card really isn't bad because "you didn't draw the perfect hand first draw" imo..... that's just...part of the game.

[@youwayo]

I remember play duel links and my opponent had a 5000+ attack Red Eyes Slash Dragon. I then otked him with Tyrant Burst Dragon.

[@TheTaintedWisdom]

8:42 - The fact that the ATK increase happens during damage calc is fantastic but that one word in it's effect is *VERY* important: "ORIGINAL". Since it doesn't take boosts into account, it will be worse than any vanilla 2800+ LIGHT monster that just uses Honest. Even worse than you might initially think in fact, because, since Mirage Knight can only be summoned during the Battle Phase, you can't use anything other than Quick Effects, so you can forget about equipping it with Phoenix Gearblade or Twin Swords of Flashing Light Tryce for multiple attacks without something like Swords at Dawn. The only way I was able to pull off a win with it in Master Duel was by abusing Cyber Stein before it got banned to summon a playset of Dark Flare Knights and attack with all 3 for game. 12:45 - Ironically, despite having a playset of both Mirage Knight and Berserk Dragon in Master Duel for years, I have yet to pull more than *ONE* copy of this card to this day. I don't know if it was short printed IRL, but it most definitely was *NOT* a Rare or higher when it came out.

[@alekrhoton6407]

While I do find it interesting to learn just how bad the rabbit hole is, I think it’d be more interesting to see something along the lines of “Hey, here are 10 random cards that are kinda funky. Go try something with them.”

[@MarioMastar]

Well part of what makes the "Worst of" videos a great learning tool is knowing WHY they are bad and how to play around them. He used to have a segment like "how would I fix this card?" a long long time ago (though more so for how to nerf overpowered or banworthy cards since fixing bad ones could literally be anything), but as a creative deckbuilder, sometimes part of the fun is learning how to make the most of a bad card. Like believe it or not, there ARE ways to make cards like Dark Artist actually have SOME positive effect, or like how Yusei made those cards that only damage you into some of the strongest effect damage. Sure 99 times out of 100 you'll lose the duel.... but there's NOTHING more satisfying than pulling off a legitimate Flying Elephant win because the opponent, a legitimate opponent played right into your win condition. (I say legitimate because you could always duel the easy NPCs in Duel links or have an opponent purposefully play a weak deck just to pull it off, but I've had some Flying elephant tier wins against real opponents trying to win. a lucky brick or misplay was all it took).

They're so weird with the cards they play. we do clearly see characters buying booster packs but I guess mirroring the real world, they are middle/high schoolers and probably don't have much money to keep buying cards.

Yusei also mostly made use of cards that were thrown away for being too weak, hence the "Junk archetype".

When I was a kid, I bought tons of packs of 'rare' YGO cards at the hobby shop at the mall. This included cards like the 5 Exodia pieces, the Egyptian God cards, and Japanese cards that hadn't been released in the TCG yet. They were all counterfeit Chinese cards that I couldn't use in tournaments. Now that's in the real world, where Yugioh is a casual hobby and there are countless hundreds of thousands of every card in the game in circulation. Imagine what it's like in the anime Universe, where there are only 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragons in existence and the card game is midway between being a game that's thousands of years old and a massive public spectacle on par with major league sports. Every toy store on Earth has to be utterly rife with bootleg cards that KaibaCorp Duel Disks probably refuse to recognize. That's probably why everybody's deck sucked so much back then and contained so many random cards: That shit was literally the best that the protagonists could do. Even Kaiba, who had more money than God, *willingly* made use of Saggi the Dark Clown and Hitotsu-Me Giant. What does that tell you?

Second of all the materials are extremely easy to search and/or foolish to then use miracle fusion. He can be used with miracle fusion to summon Shining so he's not useless in the graveyard, in fact he's very useful in the graveyard since cards like Legacy of a Hero can use him to draw 3 cards, also Core can bring him back, especially since you can summon him by banishing the materials you used for Tempest.

At least you could summon mirage knight from your deck or hand. I hate cards that you can only summon from your deck

[@KatWorld69-420]

Of course the first two vampires my man shows are Vamp and Sucker. Truly, a man of culture!

[@the1magageneral323]

Tyrant Burst Dragon is not bad.

[@scorpio2841]

I run vwxyz deck before , 😢 sadly when I'm came back to play this year I never thought it'd didn't have new support or remake cards : ( well now I'm playing cyber dragon deck and it's pretty good

[@dannyvalido7408]

Unpopular opinion here: I think the Vanilla Elemental heroes should be retrained as pendulum monsters. Considering how most pendulum monster pairs look, they’d fit perfectly into it. On top of that, these retrained monsters should have effects and while I’m thinking that their effects should be based off of their spell and trap specific cards, making it based around fusion/contact fusion could work too. Or, maybe add both? Idk, just throwing out ideas at this point

[@AlexanderEVtrainer]

It's heartbreaking to me how bad Chaos Goddess is. Her art is so beautiful, and her effect *seems* usable at a glance, especially with how much chaos support there is. But for the life of me, I haven't found a single way to use her in all the years since she was released. Maybe someday she'll find a niche combo to fit in or something.

[@akiradkcn]

It isn't even that bad nowdays, it has a underwhelming effect but its much easier to summon nowdays The bad restrictions Logs talk about are only bad at the time she was released, she got a load of whole chaos synchro support themed around her original version and its piss easy to summon nowdays, people just dont because again, her effect is pretty meh if you are playing competitively Weak but nowhere near bad enough to land on a top 10 worst level 8s

[@jaynajuly2140]

the Mirage Knight concept could be a fun retrain as an extra deck card

[@MarioMastar]

I still think they would've fixed ALL ritual monsters by simply letting them go in the extra deck.

[@jaynajuly2140]

@MarioMastar I'm honestly shocked they kept them as main deck monsters after adding Synchros

[@KenanVonKaiser]

Vampire Vamp 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵!

[@mdudegamer]

I never made the Tempest and Gate Guardian connection. That's neat.

[@TingandWal]

It was a Semi Final Match @32:21 The Winner of those Top 4 Duelists got the shot to face the creator of the game.

[@JWZRD23]

Seeing too many cards i used to use as a kid on this list 😅

[@theazuredemon4854]

Here's my idea for the next video: Flame Swordsman. As for the list in the video itselfFirst up is Chaos Goddess, that one ACTUALLY makes senses though I would put it higher personally. Next is E-HERO Tempest, as somone who made a E-HERO deck in the 2006 GBA game, it's at least SOMEWHAT good on YOUR turn in older formats. though DEFINITELY a 1 of in most cases as toolbox card... at least it was good in SOME Time Wizard formats, video games, and most importantly, Duel Links... As some on who is literally trying to build a for fun Red-Eyes Flame Swordsman deck IRL... Yeah... Dark Flare Knight and Mirage Knight at least 1 ofs each NO MATTER WHICH Time Wizard Format your playing at best and at worst can swap both out for something else if you really can't stand them... Though Mirage Knight CAN stack with Honest as a chain link if I read both Honest and Mirage Knight's effects correctly... And Mirage Knight you can us Imperial Iron Wall to counter the negative effect of Mirage Knight since Imperial Iron Wall locks BOTH players out of banishing cards, albeit inconsistent... even after the Dark Magician AND Flame Swordsman support, Dark Flare Knight and Mirage Knight are probably never going to see competitive play... not without Konami going full scorched earth with the Forbidden/Limited List... which is NEVER going to happen... Hopefully it will be good in Duel Links... Tyrant Burst Dragon... I mean... you can make a funny endboard featuring Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight equipped with both Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword AND Tyrant Burst Dragon... that's about it... I don't recommend it unless trying to play for fun... in which case, yeah you kinda deserve that win... and yes I did try to do this in Master Duel and it was as annoying as you would expect on JUST the AI opponents... Though it's probably at least good enough in Duel Links... Vampire Genesis is actually deserved on this list, but then again, early day Structure Decks boss monsters kinda suck, and even in for fun games, I would pick something else to play over Vampire Genesis... VWXYZ Dragon Catapult Cannon is an interesting case, since Frontline Base DOES make it easier to bring it out and is NOT a hard once per turn, making LIGHT Machine Union THE earliest combo deck that many combo decks today can trace their roots to... oh, and it can play Honest just for funsies... at least it was good in Duel Links... Water Dragon is at best a side deck engine, and at worst LITERALLY ANYTHING ELSE IS BETTER, like some of the aforementioned monsters... I don't even think it's good in Duel Links though... The Number 1, 2, and 10 spot suffer from what what some people call 90's card design, meaning you can put whatever you want on the card, within reason, and much like Vampire Genesis, I would rather play cards that aren't COMPLETE Bricks in my hand... though Cocoon of Ultra Evolution is capable of making the Great Moths good in Duel Links...

[@AASS-jm5ne]

Cmiiw, but you can cheat chaos goddess using 1 or 2 spell that summon light monster with same lvl and type as target

[@Alb410]

Tyant burst dragon was funny in duellinks, By equipping it to a direct attacker that gains atk per attack.

[@karisasani7006]

12:43 This is a good time to mention the game exclusive version of dark flare knight and mirage knight from reshef of destruction. There the two cards are much better since they are more based on their anime counterpart

[@daosxion776]

At least you can cheat chaos goddess with any level 8 dark fairy using duality or shadow's light.

[@SheruMuko]

Or using the effect of one other Chaos synchro

[@daosxion776]

@SheruMuko good point, almost forgot the archfiend has that effect.

[@Lootmothgaming]

I liked the part where he said Tyrant Dragon (a Fire attribute monster) was a Light attribute monster.

[@CombatFan134]

Alt video title: Monsters only the power of plot would summon.

[@nicoofthenight8403]

Will there be a HERO on the list? Or how many? Let's find out

[@kevindame3757]

Lol 🤣🤣🤣 you broke my funny bone when you said Goo goo ga ga giggitty lol 🤣🤣🤣

[@apptron9276]

Can you do a video on the top 10 monsters that can attack more than twice

[@MayIHoldThem]

Time to hop on duelingbook and make Javelin Beetle a whole deck, same with Garma Sword

[@dylanogg347]

Of course, #02 is on this list. It's one of Haga's monsters!

[@DeadmanPauli]

Chaos goddess hurts tbh. She has such a cool artwork, but summoning her is so hard...

[@Million97]

The shame that Metalzoa etc could neither be special summoned from the deck nor had metalmorph’s battle effect😢

[@Therake2602]

metal red eyes could be used like part of Cyberdark deck becuase you have a dragon or machine monster and new fusion of cyberdark can target both . In the case of Metalzoa is true. He never got a support and the only reason to use Metalzoa would be make a basic combo like use chamman geminis and bring back Zoa of graveyard and keep a Metalzoa in the field like a extra summon or monster but is too expensive use 2 cards only for that. Other reason would be maybe a change of level in the monster because all Metamorph monster are 1 extra level of their normal monsters so syncro or XYZ strategy with those could be posible but is so situational and dont worth the risk. Even in tag force i found more useful red eyes metal dragon because could be used dragon and machinea at same time to summon F.G.D dragon and Quimeratech banishing materials from graveyard or send red eyes to graceyard and summon metal dragon and use dragon mirror to banish red eyes and other monster and summon Meteor red eyes or skull red eyes dragon fusion monsters and have 2 monsters with good attack. Metalzoa unfortunelly dont have that posibility by 0 suport for that monster. Actually could be posible with too many generic materials for fusion monsters but that old combo dont worth anymore.

[@j.d.104]

Still can't believe they didn't give Metalzoa (& Red Eyes Black Metal) the Metalmorph effect built in. 🤦‍♂️

[@HiddenMis7]

Cant believe you actually disrespected Gogiga Gagagigo like that

[@LittleTilde]

16:50 Oh that hurts. I loved this guy when I was a kid :(

[@dylanogg347]

00:28 - 00:33: "I see what you did there!"

[@johnbakasmoothhotchocolate]

I honestly agree with all of these cards. Especially Elemental Hero Tempest.

[@saigaryuu7565]

Its funny to see Tyrant Burst Dragon so usefull in raid even Duel Links

[@KaibamanYT]

I don’t care what people say about MetalZoa because I have the ultimate rare and it looks beautiful. Edit: Went through my cards and it was the false bound kingdom printing

[@lightdragoon88]

Top 10 Archetypes with the most support. I really want to see who places where.
