[@samfivedot]

Let me set the scene: I had no board, almost no LP, and only one card in my hand. My opponent was using a deck based entirely around summoning Five Headed Dragon (this was back in the day). He had no monsters out, but he had a bunch of cards in his hand so I figured my loss is inevitable next turn. Hell, he might even get his boss monster out if he feels like showing off. The card in my hand is a spell that's completely useless in this situation, but having nothing else to play, I set it face down. Next turn, Five Headed Dragon hits the field. He stares at my facedown and I can tell he's thinking it over. Finally he just asks flat out, "god damn it what is that" and I put on my best poker face and say absolutely nothing. He passes his turn. He doesn't want to risk running into a Mirror Force. My turn comes around, and with a huge grin on my face I flip my card. It's Snatch Steal. I swing for game. He is in DISBELIEF. I have never felt more anime than in that moment.

I one time baited my opponent into attacking my Ash with Bye-Bye Damage in my back row. It was pretty much my only move, but the dude lost over 5000 in a single turn.

Satellite Warrior is the most protagonist card in the whole game. Variable results based on your enemy board, benefitting from an unrealistic turn amount of graveyard setup, Big Number, and floating into the pieces to assemble a second boss monster that will absolutely close out the game because you've already summoned Satellite Warrior.

Man, I remember having a moment like this once, and with a Yusei Fudo deck too, when 5Ds was current. My field was completely empty, had two monsters in my hand and nothing else. I drew into One for One, which led into my discarding one monster to summon a level 1 tuner from my deck, and I normal summoned the last card from my hand. With those I synchro'd into a Formula Synchron with no hand left. HOWEVER, Formula Synchron's draw effect let me top-deck into Stardust Shimmer, bringing back a dead Stardust Dragon. Synchro'd into Shooting Star Dragon from there and won the game. It felt SO COOL, and I've never had another moment that awesome again lol

[@deathsaidhello]

or, you can watch them summon junk speeder and use Ghost Mourner on it, with Ghost Belle to protect your mourner and Ghost Ogre to get rid of Junk Speeder. I havent had any issues with decks like this after getting 3 mourners into my deck. Junk Speeder special summoned, chain 1 junk speeder effect, chain 2 Ogres effect, chain 3 Mourners effect, then if you need it after someone chain 4 CBTG to your Mourner, you just chain 5 Belle to the CBTG... This specific play happens so often for me being that so many people like to use junk speeder. Also, this works on MOST big monsters, making it an easy way to watch someone FF a match they really shouldve won. Got diamond with the Mourner decks faster than any other deck, and its such a simple hand trap...

No more threat of Zarc! Of Yugi, Jaden, Yusei, and Yuma, Yusei would have been the best one to deal with literally every aspect of ARC-V. Yugo and Rin are obvious. Yuri has so many parallels to Akiza it's kinda nuts, and Yusei's charismatic and genuine enough to get through to Serena. Yusei could easily sympathize with and lend aid to Yuto and Ruri. Yuya and Yuzu are friendly right off the bat, so hardly a problem there.

My big turnaround was in Dual Links. I was playing an Aroma Deck, the opponent brought out Quintet Magician to wipe my board. I used the life gain Aroma hand trap to barely survive a direct attack, and from there I managed to rebuild my back row. Quintet Magician with the Wonder wand it had was to powerful for anything I had to beat over and none of the removal I had could effect it, so I focused on recovering life points, keeping a wall of defense position monsters, and putting Aromas back in the deck to go for a deck out. Eventually the opponent sacrificed Quintet Magician to draw for Wonder Wand, I guess looking for an answer, and didn't find one. So that is my biggest Turnaround.
