Top Ten Weirdest Yu-Gi-Oh Fusion Monsters

I tend to put Yugioh cards on my more general lists, so it’s probably time for a video completely centered around the card game. As with normal Yugioh entries, I’m barely looking at the card from a competitive standpoint and focusing on aesthetics, lore, names, and anime appearances. On tap for this video are the fusion monsters that don’t make much sense when looking at the material monsters. Joining me in this video are A.T. from SoftwareAgentsCorp (who also provided the Yugioh video game footage) and Judgment Meter.

In the Japanese dub, Mystical Sand’s name translates to “Sand Witch” which is a pun on “sandwich” and in some of Yugioh video games where Mystical Sand is not a fusion monster, she’s said to be a witch who turns her enemies into sand.

[@LegitMan335]

[@Ryanmanification]

They already use the name Sand Witch for the other fusion monster sanwitch with Sangan and Witch of the black forest

[@anonymousoff-brand7538]

@@Ryanmanification mystical sand is 5 years older, and sanwitch only has this pun in english(just being a portmanteau without the pun in japanese).

[@OmnicidalClown1992]

And yet strangely enough, there's another Fusion Monster by the name of Sanwitch, which was a fusion between Sangan and Witch of the Black Forest.

[@Indy-the-soup]

I guess since Sanwitch already existed they didn't want to make it confusing.

[@Kuronosa]

Witch of the Black Forest and Lady of Faith are Musician King's Groupies....

[@MrTopTenList]

That's the kind of creativity I like to hear!

[@Kuronosa]

That's always been my opinion....

[@MrTopTenList]

I like it. I enjoy hearing how others interpret the fusion and that's my favorite explanation for the Musician King so far.

[@Kuronosa]

Back in high school, i was working on a fanfiction that had him as the centerpiece of a music-based deck.

[@Skullkid20999]

Kuronosa can u still make a music themed deck that involves him nowadays??

[@metroidfannumber1234]

in the old yugioh cards the fusion materials are usually connected with the story of the fusion monster rather than actually being the material of the fusion. for example time wizard doesnt actaully fuse with baby dragon in the lore he just fast forwards time to make him old.

[@SwoleTommyPickles]

I'm pretty sure he gets that considering for #1 he tried to say maybe snake hair turned Zombie dragon to stone which was then revived as a fossil

[@seki108]

But none of these really appeared in the anime or manga (unless before Duel Monsters took over) with that kind of explanation, so why bring it up???

[@VixXstazosJOB]

cause why not lol

[@brianaguilar8283]

That applies to St. Joan as well. Thematically, The Forgiving Maiden forgives Darklord Marie for all of her sins and she becomes a saint (not that it makes much sense for a card based on Joan of Arc, but at least her materials are appropriate).

[@alchemicalvapour8950]

the baby dragon + time wizard thing is a rare example of fusions making sense in old school yugioh, most other fusions from that time period are kind just really random.

[@AnimaniacZero]

I ran a lot of these pointless fusions in a Fusion Gate/Gren Maju da Eiza deck. T’was one of the best decisions I ever made.

[@Yata-Garasu]

I think the "Another Planet" in Last warrior from another planet's name, is intended to be the extra deck because, once you summon it, technically both players become unable to summon monsters from the extra deck (the "another planet") or monsters in general

[@coyraig8332]

Kind of like the Banish zone being the different dimension

[@lack_of_reality]

In Yugioh: Forbidden Memories for the PS1, you have to combine Mammoth Graveyard with another Zombie to make Great Mammoth of Goldfine so atleast they fixed that

[@bunnyboyking5215]

Flareknight79 But they also screwed up fusion in that game by making it overly complicated. I mean SERIOUSLY if you need to use a walkthrough in order to avoid a lot of trial & error they it's too complicated for its own good.

[@PaDDy7389]

Mine were the different dragons, like Thunder Dragon, Stone Dragon and B. Dragon Jungle King and later in Duelists of the Roses, The Great Mamoth of Goldfine and Pumpink, the King of Ghost were my favorite combo.

[@ramus93]

lol for real

[@grammysworld5449]

Mystical Sand and flame Cerberus carried me a long way in forbidden memories.. duelist of the roses was basically :set mirror wall, wait for enemy to keep attacking, win , repeat

[@D-Havoc]

I was waiting on Musician King. That one stumped me for years. And then years later, Vergil, Rock Star of the Burning Abyss overshadows the theme. Metal Raiders had some crazy fusion monsters. One of them being Roaring Ocean Snake. Its fused from Mystic Lamp and Hyosube... A lamp fused with a kappa makes a giant sea serpent. With Kamionwizard, its hands closely resembles Curtain of the Dark Ones. So that monster is likely the base of the fusion and Mystical Elf's powers went into strengthening it to its Kamionwizard form.

[@masked-feraligatr1094]

Rare fish is actually useful. Its a level 4 water monster that can be summoned by instant fusion. With another level 4 water monster it turns into bahamut shark and then toadally awesome.

[@ShockUzer]

When I started playing Yu-Gi Oh! as a kid, fusion monsters seemed so cool and fascinating, yet it took me little time to realize they were not only garbage, but also the fusions made no sense most of the time. On top of that, Polymerization was almost impossible to get before the Joey deck came out. As a kid, I had never seen anyone other than me that had Polymerization, not even as a bootleg card.

[@iara0]

In Yugioh Forbidden Memories, if you turn animations on in battle and have Mystical Sand destroyed, she will die by turning into sand.

[@Wyatt_Sumner_Musician]

I agree with you on these being some of the weirdest fusions. However, there is one that blows them all out of the water: This monster is called "Yasushi The Skull Knight". This monster's fusion materials are the reason why it's so weird. These materials consist of "Witch of the Black Forest," and "Ultimate Offering," which is a Continuous Trap Card that gives you unlimited Normal Summons for the cost of 500 Life Points each.

[@realzachfluke1]

I had to look that one up, because I’d never heard of it. And to (not) my surprise, it was a Japanese OCG exclusive card hahaha.

[@LegitMan335]

If I had that card, I would just play that at home only for fun . For card game science

[@thewanderingmistnull2451]

Also not legal to play. It's a card they made for a tournament winner or as a Make a Wish.

[@LordProteus]

Tainted Wisdom and Ancient Brain had their names switched. Their names were intended for the other.

[@Slayerthecrow]

Is interesting how the game has evolved since the early years, I guess that one of these days you could make a top 10 weirdest old school OCG monsters, there are some weird monsters that never came to the TCG for some good reasons

[@MrTopTenList]

I hope to cover more weird, old Yugioh card designs in the future, like I do with the Pokémon Sprite "analysis" videos, so maybe the OCG or other early TCG monsters will be the next Yugioh topic

+MrTopTenList, maybe you can do top ten lists involving cats considering that there are many different types of top 10 list that you could do I could be anime video games there's a lot of things you can do, and I'm thinking that doesn't have to be just like top 10 cats of all times you could do top 10 coolest you could do top 10 cutest there's just a lot of different options no I am not a crazy cat person but I just know that there's a lot of different categories that deal with these furry felines, then again robonyan isn't made of fur but some kind of medal...(now that I think about it, your one co-host would lose it on the top 10 cutest cat list)

For many of the inital monsters, they used exiisting designs from the manga -- or other monsters -- and haphazardly assigned materials for them. You can see that with Great Mammoth of Goldfine and Barox (who is a normal monster in the manga and anime). Sometimes it kind of made sense (Flame swordsman)... other times you'd have a Great Mammoth from the non-existent land of Lloyd Goldfine.

[@suddenllybah]

StrangebuttsPHD It does seem so weird that they did that. It's like the worst fusion design process.

[@SakuraAvalon]

I think they did it because Fusion's were pretty scarce in the manga/anime.

[@matthewkuscienko4616]

I'm honestly a bit surprised that Charubin the Fire Knight didn't make the list. Not only does one of the monsters you need (namely Monster Egg) not really make any sense, but it's a warrior type monster at that; kind of like how Hungry Burger was randomly made a "warrior" as well.

[@brianaguilar8283]

Matthew Kuscienko Hungry Burger is a Warrior type because he fights hunger.

Mystical sand had a special place in my heart because in early part of Forbidden Memories game it was easy to fuse and also super powerful. So many early duels won thanks to that card

[@kevins.4185]

PErsonally I think the "Skull Knight" fusion is more akin to this Tainted Wisdom WAS the original knight's brain, and Ancient used some old magic to revive it and become the Skull Knight. Or they are two parts of the Skull Knights one body.

[@CarmsCelestia]

In the first season of the anime, Yami etc. gave a 30% bonus to ATK and DEF. Paniks Monsters had stats, that when increased by 30%, roughly equal rather strong monsters. (E.g. 930*1,3= 1209 ~ 1200, 1380*1,3= 1794 ~ 1800. 1530*1,3~2000 etc.)

[@OmnicidalClown1992]

So, if you ever decided to combine both lists of the weirdest Yu-Gi-Oh Fusion Monsters, where do you think they would be ranked?

[@HelloItsMikkan]

10:32 actually that fusion makes sense a bit since Raijuu are beast that is being attacked by Raijin who is the Thunder God. These Raijuu usually has the ability to reside on the navel of humans and is usually the Raijin targets for a lightning strike. Meaning it has to be small and can conduct electricity. However I do wonder why the creators depicted the Fusion Monster as a scene of A Thunder god hitting the Raijuu rather than depicting the beast itself? Wait...I think the English name of the card makes sense now..

[@s.iyeserin6955]

all what mattered for old fusion cards is the type of the fused monsters: * Fusionist: Beast + Angel = Angel Beast * Kaminkari Attack: Angel + Thunder = Thunder God *Mystical Sand = Rock + Spellcaster = Rock Witch fusion in most early yugioh video games (Duelists of the Roses, Forbidden Memories etc) was like this.

Theory on all Fusion monsters based on this video Fusionist: Petite Angel grew tired of being weak so it was hypnotized by Mystical Sheep #2 thus the Polymerization portal was open for both monsters and Fusionist was Born Barox: Frienzied Panda and Ryukishin got into a huge fight as both monsters being ones to not give up and then the Polymerization Portal was opened fusing them together to become Barox Kamion Wizard: Curtain of The Dark Ones trapped Mystical Elf with its dark powers seeing that Mystical Elf is not much of the fighting type so a Polymerization Portal was triggered for them and Kamion Wizard was born Marine Beast: Water Magician was practicing her magic when Behegon saw her in the Water Realm and ate her thus triggering the Polymerization portal for the two creating Marine Beast Mystical Sand : Ancient Elf was defeated by an unknown warrior and then Giant Soldier of Stone had protected Ancient Elf from a huge attack thus creating a Polymerization portal fusing both monsters and Mystical Sand was born Skull Knight: Ancient Brain had wanted more dark knowledge for himself so he went to Magical Scientist for more information but instead Ancient Brain was tied down to an experimental chair and his original brain had been removed and was replaced by Tainted Wisdom thus triggering the Polymerization Portal for the two and Skull Knight was born Musician King: Lady of Faith was in the Forest Realm when she was confronted by Witch of the Black Forest demanding her gift and when Lady of Faith refused a Polymerization portal was created for both of them resulting in Musician King being born. Last Warrior From Another Planet: Zombrya the Dark was transferred by Interdimensional Transporter thus confronting Maryokutai for his power thus creating a Polymerization Portal however this portal transfer them into an empty planet in space and the Last Warrior from Another Planet was born Kaminari Attack: Ocubeam wanted to have the ability to control Thunder so it sees Mega Thunderball and wanted to absorb its energy and the Polymerization Portal was created and Kaminari Attack came out through lightning. Great Mammoth of Goldfine: Snake Hair was confronted by Dragon Zombie and she used her stare to turn Dragon Zombie to stone and then the stone statue fell upon Snake Hair and the Polymerization Portal was created and the Mammoth of Goldfine was born

[@DasAlternativeEnde]

Witch of the black Forest and Lady of Faith should fuse into Cosmo Queen. That would make more sense.

[@Yet_another_placeholder]

Maybe the reasoning behind those weird early Fusion Monsters was that they were supposed to be like more recent ones, like Great Mammoth actually just requiring 2 DARK monsters, but when the cards were printed in real life, they put the cards used in the anime as the Fusion requirements? That could actually make sense, given how loose the requirements on a lot of the latest Fusion Monsters are...

From a competitive standpoint, Rare Beast is actually really good, seeing as you just use instant fusion and plop it on the field.

[@matthewvelazquez2056]

For kaminari attack, I always took it that Ocubeam would pick Mega Thunderball and drop him down like a Continues thunder attack and sense kuriboh can attack a player directly and not be sent to the graveyard it could be that this monster is just Ocubeam dropping Mega Thunderball again and again.

[@Nymphonomicon]

It hadn't really occurred to me before, but I noticed a mark of laziness when you spoke of the Mammoth of Goldfine. Its ATK and DEF are identical to Mammoth Graveyard's, just with a 1000 boost to each.

I thought I should mention Mystical Sand actually does have a name that makes sense. In the spinoff miniseries Yu-Gi-Oh Capsule Monsters she's a minor antagonist for one episode. She's shown to be a desert witch with powers over sand, so this actually fits to an extent. Though her name really should have been Sand Witch in that case.

[@MrTopTenList]

I forgot about Capsule Monsters! I watched that all the way through about 10 years ago. I forgot Mystical Sand was in there, but at least her anime powers makes up for her artwork not explaining her powers.

I'm surprised you didn't see the ironic joke about the nun and a witch who turns into a rock star. Christians hate Rock music usually

[@Paladin585]

Maybe like 30-40 years ago. It's the biggest genre in Christian music nowadays.

Dude. Creed and Evanescence were things back in the day. You can't get more christian than that with all their songs about salvation and stuff.

Player Killer of Darkeness (or Panik) had weird stats because of the manga. In that, his monsters did not gain a Field Power Bonus, but simply prevented other players from gaining it. But when they made the anime, they decided that they wanted to add the 30% FPB, so they just fudged numbers that got it closest to the original ATK and DEF of the manga cards.

mystical sand is a monster from the capsule monster movies, her "field spell" is a desert, she is protected by a moving sand storm "tornado", she turns everyone to stone & when destroys crumbles to dust herself.

Musician King does makes sense due to its fusion material. WOTBF (which is a DARK attribute) and the Lady of FAITH. hence, the band, Black Sabbath. Thus, the card, Musician King

I did not grow up with the Yu-Gi-Oh card game in my home country. The cartoon series dub was fairly popular. And I emulated the GBA games which were fun but full of glitches.

I think many fusions are "event" related, like how a clock and a baby don't make a old dragon when merged but ..more the wizard uses his magic to age the dragon. This would explain a few of these cards. The mystical Elf could corrode the statue and use his sand as a weapon.. assuming a new identity.. flying on the winds of a sandstorm etc. As for Ocubeam and Thunderball, Thunderball could be Zeus his weapon, and Ocubeam can use his large eye to track any movement.. even at lighting speed. He could use this to track down the "god" and send him down to the duel he is needed in. As for the Last Warrior, I can see Zombyra coming from another planet, his ability lets him only attack other monsters, so I can see why he is a warrior, he weakens a bit everytime though, with Maryokutai being his final opponent, it being a skull maybe symbolising death, blocking escape from it by magical means and possibly Z's magic as well, the latter would have no chance but to seek his hail in technology As for the Musician King, I can see the two girls being a form of groupies when combined coming to preform for his fans. Lady of Faith is the devout follower.. the adoring fangirl and witch of the black forest, dorning black and purple hair has a somewhat gothy look to her. He's not them..he's there for them. As for the Skull Knight that one is easy: Both brain of the fusion materials are lacking an actual scalp/full skull As brains tend to be inside a skull, Skull Night could simply be a warrior who claimed the bones from both of these..and made them into his suit of armor The Mammoth one as well as the other's I can't really give any context though.

[@Fallen-Saint]

this is too tru about the old fusions i think that most of these cards should be re done like this "1 monster type + 1 monster type" and "monster name + 1 monster type" i think that would make more sense and they should redo all there att/def

[@FIRE-LOTUS]

Can we all agree that B. Skull Dragon followed by Meteor B. Dragon are one of the coolest and best designs for YGO fusion monsters? The materials for those monsters actually make sense, it's as if Konami wants Red-Eyes to have all the coolest monster designs.

[@MrTopTenList]

I wish B. Skull Dragon had more support like Red Eyes and Summoned Skull eventually received.

[@chaosgallade2331]

Mystical Sand has flavor text in The Sacred Cards and that text states that she turns opponents to stone to attack; those opponents then crumble into sand.

[@dizzydial8081]

One thing I can point out. With fusion monsters, it doesn't necessarily mean the two monsters mush together in a blob to form a new monster. It is possible that the monsters combine their powers or use their power in tandem to either transform one or the other or create a brand new monster. If you look at Baby Dragon and Time Wizard, Time Wizard would clearly use his influence over time to accelerate Baby Dragon's aging to power up Baby Dragon into maturity.
