Yusei Fudo's Top 10 Most Important Cards

[@Hugelag]

It sounds like he's not going fast enough to feel alive.

[@0mn0m15]

That, and his heart's not beating in hyperdrive :( 💔

[@ingetout]

He sounds distracted. Seems like he needs a more CLEE-AH MIND-O.

[@yummytea19]

Dude has no speed counters left

[@YamiYuseiGG]

That was my exact thought too haha. As if he was being held at gunpoint during these quotes.

[@genesisera8364]

i know people said they love watching his videos to sleep but this was NOT what i expected

[@juanpablouriascruz1411]

Junk Warrior is for Yusei what Elemental Hero Flame Wingman is for Jaden: their first iconic monster. Nice that it was both the first and last Synchro summoned monster.

[@WDinATX]

Couldn’t agree more. 👍

[@HuhJuhWuh]

Junk Warrior is actually even more significant. It's Yusei's true key card. At the very end its not any version of Stardust Dragon, it's Junk Warrior rocketing into RDAs face with over 5k atk and an ensemble of Yusei's classic "junk" level monsters. Stardust was never as important to Yusei as Junk Warrior was

[@Deathmare235]

@@HuhJuhWuhsad how junk warrior never got a retrain to make it competitive, the closest it gets is alt variants

[@HuhJuhWuh]

@Deathmare235 bro you have no idea. I want to see a return to form with synchro warriors if they get more support. Specific named tuners was one of the coolest parts of early 5Ds

[@michaeldavid1566]

​@@Deathmare235you could say junk speeder is the retrain

[@ivanbluecool]

Yu-Gi-Oh 5ds. The best series even on rewatches. Plus ending has characters grow up showing fans they can still love the game but have to grow as people with it. Og gx zexal arc v vrains feels like they just stop especially vrains.

[@kingscourge6031]

I'm personally huge fan of arc v but I will agree with you about 5ds rewatchablity (especially season 3 against zone and the timelords).

[@ivanbluecool]

@@kingscourge6031 honestly if arc v was on season one grind it would have been the best series but in synchro it really fell down with how little they did especially when having cameos

[@soma467]

I agree and 5ds could have gone better if not for IRL miss timing

[@petertran9416]

I like season 1 arc v

[@ivanbluecool]

@@petertran9416 yeah. Too bad it went down after that. Season 1 was basically Yu-Gi-Oh s attempt at making the anime as close to the card game as possible

[@OswaldVon]

Scrap Iron Scarecrow has saved yusei's duels many times

[@Infovorousness]

It shows Yusei’s skill as a duelist, taking advantage of the fact nobody ran MST in his time period

[@vaporterra]

@@InfovorousnessThat was one of the few things that bothered me about 5Ds’s. Even late Yugioh GX had some staple cards like MST remain in use so it felt disconnected without those key cards involved. That was probably by design though and it’s still a great series.

[@opearkillana5940]

The intro was legendary, brought back memories ❤

[@tonirasic1728]

watching the opening segment really reminded me of how special the first season is. I never really cared much about speed warrior but now that you mention it, being the first monster yusei brings out it really sets the tone going forward. There's something very dystopian about his design. It's not often that yugioh will explore social themes which makes me appreciate 5ds even more.

[@hikki3523]

I love you Junk Synchron

[@alexrazmus1798]

Don’t you mean Junk Synchro?

[@TheRecallBerserk]

Without a doubt my most enjoyable video you’ve ever made. 5D’s is a great show, you did it proud. Thank you

[@TLHGONZO]

Yugioh 5Ds is hands-down the best Yugioh anime with the best story. Fight me! Phenomenal video, BTW!

[@tarikkash4282]

Battle City and GX Dimension World also had the best story! So it's on par at least!

[@JosephHk743]

5D’s is one of my favorite Anime eras of all time and it’s nice to look back on Yusei’s key cards. Sure there wasn’t as much information on the TCG impact of Yusei’s cards than other top 10 Anime cards the Duel Logs covered, but I liked the information on the deeper connections within the Anime and to the highlighted character.

[@Player1Alpha]

I like how Shooting Star Dragons attack name "Stardust Mirage" is a nod to the trap card with the same name he used in the duel against Paradox alongside Yugi and Jaden in Bonds Beyond Time. Paradox does get mentioned by Z-One and it apparently takes place before the Crash Town arc as it shows he still wasn't over the Zero Reverse Incident at the start of the movie. I'm sure it means that he'll always remember Atem's and Jaden's words on how they have to keep moving forward as duelists to protect what is dear to them.

[@darklight1030]

Why does he go by Z-one? He was the last human in his timeline. Z is the last letter of the alphabet. He IS the LAST-ONE

[@RogerVenn]

Heck yeah, Yusei has the deck with the best overall aesthetic imo. It fits the cyberpunk setting so perfectly, and they look so cool when turbo dueling! Wish we had Turbo Dueling in Master Duel…

[@singyist]

Shooting Star Dragon has my favourite summon in the series. Hearing clear mind, as it descends from the sky clearing the clouds. Peak

[@CD-Gaming]

I was one of the few people seemingly willing to give the series a chance when it first started airing here in the UK! I still maintain that 5D's is the best Yu-Gi-Oh! series, standing alongside Tamers as the best Digimon! Pokémon never got to such heights as having one area that could be defined as its best in the Animé! A lot of people love the Unova games, but the Unova Animé was objectively terrible and for once it didn't solely come down to DuArt and their objectively horrible English dub! Which is somert, I guess...

[@magicalnewsmaneditsbumpers4374]

I played a game vs a college friend of mine, I was on speedroids, and I had the opportunity to summon stardust dragon, so I did, and the effect won me the game!

[@juanpablouriascruz1411]

Speed Spell Angel Baton, Formula Synchron, Quickdraw Synchron, Sonic Chick and Majestic Star Dragon are honorary mentions

[@ivanbluecool]

What about effect veiler? It's one of the first and best hand traps that can double as tuner material

[@gabrielamaya9086]

Crow: Am I a joke to you? (Yeah, veiler is cracked, yer right.)

[@shawnli4746]

He uses it *once*.

[@ivanbluecool]

@@shawnli4746 you only need to use it once to stop a combo.

[@veghesther3204]

Exactly but he only plays it once for the ENTIRE series which is Japan is 154 episodes while the English dub only lasted for like 125 Episodes I believe for that dub he never played it at all since it was shown in 1 of the Japanese episodes that got CUT from the English dubs.

[@mightaswell]

If we were talking about his best cards yeah maybe but there’s a reason Speed Warrior is on this list and Effect Veiler isn’t

[@ALittleMessi]

I think Yugi's story was way darker than admitted here. Almost every arc involved people losing their souls, being sent to the shadow realm, having their mind shattered, etc. Like yeah the general world background was lighter, but damn

[@veghesther3204]

About that like GX 5DS had a Least 25 to 30 Japanese episodes CUT from the ENGLISH dub including 1 whole season of it which sucks because the Paradox VS Yu Gi Jaden and Yusei takes place well AFTER Season 4 of GX which never had a English dub of GX season 4 despite that movie having a English dub with Paradox being voiced by Dragon Ball Z's current voice actor of Goku himself.

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

8:11 surprised we haven't gotten a card that shows debris dragon evolving into stardust dragon 8:23 what's stardust, but debris of the cosmos? 10:05 what's synchro summoning in the anime? 26:54 honorable mention 27:32 still sad draco equiste doesn't have junk warrior's or stardust dragon's elements

[@silentazn89]

I love this video no ghost appearing here just the spida voice and this is his favorite waifu era nothing but respect

[@rainbowdragon168]

My favourite card used by Yusei is definitely his dragon, Stardust Dragon.

[@StardustSynchron]

My favorite character and cards! No bias :D

[@Blizzardfire]

Road to Tomorrow is my favorite 5Ds opening, and one of the many things I like about it is that, at its climax, Yusei is shown summoning Junk Warrior for the final attack.

[@Yuusai]

As someone who plays this deck, Top 3 are not surprising, already assumed them.

[@HektorMD]

Been waiting for this one so long!

Love Yusei and his card. He is 90% of the reason why I play Duel Links.

[@jing4122]

Was really happy where Junk Warrior ended up on the list, awesome work man

[@HuhJuhWuh]

Junk Warrior absolutely deserves #1, its Yusei's true key/ace monster. Stardust never meant as much to Yusei as Junk Warrior, the final moments of the show are proof of that.

[@cubbycrv]

Love your videos. As someone who grew up and played Yugioh but got away from it. if you haven't already, I would love to see a video breaking down the competitive scene by year. Would love to see the history of Yugioh I missed out on

[@nathancondron1120]

Thank you for the opening monologue Mr logs. The mono-logs

[@CD-Gaming]

You don't say the "s" in Debris Dragon's name and also Z-One's name is pronounced singularly, the same way as "zone", as in the Sonic Levels, like Green Hill Zone or Scrap Fist Zone! It is not "Zee One", it is also not, to say it correctly, "Zed One", it is a single syllable! And yes, I named those two levels on purpose, you can probably guess why!

[@NovaBushido]

Yusei will always be the best to me.

[@speedroidterrortop5391]

I actually just finished the 5Ds manga yesterday. (I didn't like it as much as the manga series that came before it, but I like the 5Ds anime more than the anime series that came before it. Fun fact the GX and 5Ds manga were written after their anime counterparts.)

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

22:17 Idea for a “Stardust Dragon”/“Red Dragon Archfiend” Fusion Monster: _Star-Fiend Dragon of the Red Reign_ (WIND) Level 8 Dragon/Fusion/Tuner/Effect _1+ WIND Dragon Synchro Monsters + 1+ DARK Dragon Synchro Monsters_ _(This card is always treated as an "Stardust Dargon" and "Red Dragon Archfiend" card.)_ _After damage calculation, if this card attacked an opponent's monster: Destroy all monsters your opponent controls with a lower Total ATK/DEF than that Monster. When a card or effect is activated that would destroy or Banish a card(s) (Quick Effect): You can Tribute this card; negate the activation, and if you do, destroy it. During the End Phase, if this effect was activated this turn (and was not negated): You can Special Summon this card from your GY, and if you do; Add 1 Spell/Trap to your hand (From your Deck) that mentions “Syncrho” or “Tuner”._ ATK/3000 DEF/2500

[@BmanZeroBlank]

#1 Effect Veiler

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

28:05 Idea for a improved version of this card that leans into the Level 2 aspect: _Junk-ernaut_ (DARK) Level 5 Warrior/Synchro/Tuner/Effect 1+ “Junk Synchron” + 1+ Non-Tuner monsters _This card’s Level is unaffected by the effects of other cards. Gains ATK/DEF Equal to the Total ATK/DEF of all Level/Rank/Link 2 Monsters you control. Once per turn (Quick Effect), You can increase this card’s level by 2 for every Level/Rank/Link 2 Monster you control. This Synchro Summoned card gains the following effects based on it’s Level:_ _6+: This card, and all Level/Rank 2 Monsters you control, Gain ATK Equal to their Original DEF, and DEF equal to their Original ATK._ _8+: This card, and all Level/Rank/Link 2 Monsters you control, Cannot be Destroyed by Battle Or Card Effects._ _10+: This card, and all Level/Rank/Link 2 Monsters you control, can attack all monsters your Opponent Controls, once each._ _12+: During your Main Phase, While this card is Face-up on the field, You can Normal Summon Level 2 Monsters without Limit, in addition to your Normal Summon/Set._ ATK/2300 DEF/1300

[@ethanmacdonald8568]

"This monster's level can't be modulated by card effects except its own" Dunno what it is, but that just sounds like better wording

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

⁠@@ethanmacdonald8568 Oh I’m sure there’s A better way to word it… I just haven’t seen any yet. But you get the general concept, right? A Boss Monster for Level 2’s, that grows stronger from them and in turn empowers them back, eventually allowing you to flood the board with them as long as you can get enough of them into your hand to Normal Summon/Set. With Rank 2 support to compliment the Level 2 stuff. Although I’m thinking I should drop the Link 2 stuff, as Link Monsters offer on a different sorta kind of power scaling than Levels/Ranks.

[@ethanmacdonald8568]

@@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire should also limit the play to only able to summon link 2s, rank 2s, and synchro monsters using only itself as tuner or synchro using only lvl 2s as material

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

18:13 Idea for a “Scrap-Iron” Field Spell that focuses on getting out and supporting the “Scrap-Iron” Traps: _Scrap-Iron Junkyard_ Field Spell _Unaffected by Card Effects while you control a Face-up “Scrap-Iron” Trap. Facedown Cards in your Spell/Trap Zones cannot be Destroyed or Targeted by card effects while you control this Face-up Card. During Either Player’s turn, you can discard 2 cards: Set 1 “Scrap-Iron” Trap from your Hand or Deck. If a “Scrap-Iron” Trap you activated is set Facedown by it’s own effect; You can Apply 1 of the following effects._ _⚪️Special Summon 1 Level 4 or Lower Tuner Monster from your Hand._ _⚪️Add 1 Level 4 or lower Tuner Monster to your Hand from your Deck or GY._ _⚪️Shuffle 1 Syncrho Monster from the GY or Banishment back into the Extra Deck._

The Jack Atlas and Crow Hogan Top 10s are going to be interesting given there are two versions of the respective characters. Red Demon's Dragon, Scarlight Red Demon's Dragon, Dark Resonator, Red Resonator, and Red Nova Dragon are all definitely going to be on the Jack Top 10.

[@WDinATX]

You know, “taking the form of” is a *very* weird way to describe Z-One turning himself into a perfect clone of Yusei through science but I guess everyone makes mistakes. Even when it comes to the very point of the final boss’s character and why he’s such a good foil to the best Yu-Gi-Oh character. Why the heck was everyone disappointed that he wasn’t Yusei from thousands of years in the future? I was *worried* that there’d be a dumb explanation of why he became immortal and the scene where Z-One became a Yusei minus the Power of Fellows that Junk Warrior represents shows how no one person can change the future. If Z-One had found friends to form Illiaster with before the world was destroyed then they’d be no different from Team 5Ds. But he only found them after feeling such despair he ripped up Stardust Dragon… which served as the moment he was no longer “Yusei.” Because even Yusei can’t do everything on his own and the scientist who would become Z-One didn’t realize that when he made his plan. Fate isn’t so easily changed. I cannot stress enough that the procedure was about as close to successfully bringing a long dead legend back to life as you can possibly get without outright retrieving his soul from the afterlife.
