Top Ten Terrible "Final Boss" Archetypes in Yu-Gi-Oh

It’s always a big deal in the Yugioh anime when we get to that final boss of an arc. All season, we see them commanding their minions or getting in a duel where they dominate, and when we finally get to them, they have monsters with unstoppable effects. However, when they get put in the real life card game, they either get nerfed where they’re nowhere near their anime dominance level, or you need like a dozen cards to set up their busted effects. Or maybe they’re completely unchanged, but the powercreep of the game is too much for them. Regardless, we want to look at their “final boss’ archetypes that didn’t quite cut the mustard when they made it into the card game. Perhaps they’re pretty good when you get everything set up, but they don’t match the meta enough to be as overwhelming as they were in the anime. Sam from Dungeon Dive Bar and Professor Oats join me for this one.

I still have no idea why they gave Ra the monster destruction effect (from his phoenix form), and not the absolute basic effect of gaining the attack of the tributed monsters. The god cards were supposed to reflect a specific play style: beatdown (Obelisk), control (Slifer) and OTK (Ra). Ra is only on the field for a turn at a time because he only needed to be on the field for a turn. You'd gain the attack of all the tributed creatures and then put all your life into him to get his attack to skyrocket.

Master Duel's solo mode has a fairly creative Timelord strategy. Using them as support in a Lightsworn deck. Since Lightsworn's gimmick is sending your cards from deck to graveyard, you can definitely pull off Sephylon's summoning gimmick a bit easier.

[@Metalseadraking]

I disagree with anti archetypes. It is possible to maske them somewhat decent while also being hyper fixated on killing a certain kind of opponent. Best example is Buster Blader who can use Buster Dragon to turn every monster into a dragon. The problem with Meklords or Ally of justice for that matter is that they try to be an "anti" archetype, but are at most a nuisance to those kind of decks. Like all Absorb effects of Meklords are spell speed 1 and so if its your opponents turn, your so called anti machine monsters can just watch helplessly as clear mind plays in the background. The Monster that has absorbtion in its name, can't even absorb a monster, has a weaker version of a generic synchro monsters effect and is the only card with a notable negation effect in the entire archetype next to Wisel Speaking of Wisel, why is he the only special child in the Emperor family who throws a tamper tantrum and doesnt let anyone else attack? So what is the key difference between Meklord and Buster Blader and how could Meklord be improved? Buster Blader is a lot faster, its key monsters are easier to bring out AND even if your opponent doesnt fullfill the dragon criteria, Buster Blader has ways to either use other kinds of floodgates or Synchro into Buster Blader to create that Criteria Meklord not only lacks a way to create their own criteria, but also just have lackluster Anti Effects in general. Even if you got the entire Archetype together on a field against a sychnro deck, A Dragon Deck would have much less chances for a comback against a Single Buster Blader fusion. If I could do something about Meklords, I would just allow them to use their owners Extra Deck for Synchro Equipments. Maybe let them use the effects of their equipped monsters like how Synchro Absorbtion Wisel is using a worse version of Stardust Dragon for example

Also I hated what they did to the Machine Emperors in the real game, the anime had each one as it's own sub-archetype that felt like an update to Valon's armour deck, multiple cards that came together to create a boss monster with interchangeable parts each with their own unique and upgradeable effect. It was such a cool and different idea but they were completely neutered when printed, not that they would have been good in their original form of course.

My theory is next time they want to give Meklords support in the card game, it'll be in an animation chronicle set and they'll print the emperor pieces with much better effect than they had in the anime, similar to how more recent cards from 5Ds and earlier got better effects than their anime counterparts, like Ashoka Pillar being able to search equip spells.

Sacred beasts were a deck before the support They had a field spell and a fusion

Remember how Shooting quasar was theorized that it was either gonna be nerfed when printed or given a frustratingly overly hard summoning condition? Then it was printed pretty much exactly the same as the anime version,

And then for a time everyone hated it because it was a monster pain to out

@@DarkSymphony777 at least it was balanced out by being hard to summon. You had to put in a fair amount of work in order to summon the damn thing.

@TheSandwhichman108 yeah that was fair Boss monster to end boss monster And then blazar came out which was just a sidegrade of quazar
