"Mai was one of the strongest duelists I've ever known! She defeated Jean Claude Magnum! ... and then no one else after that. But she defeated Jean Claude Magnum, man!" ~Abridged Yami Yugi
The funniest thing is, the reason that they never printed the Armor cards is that they were afraid that players would use them as an excuse to punch their opponents like Valon did.
Honeslty i think it what stops it from being made even more then it referencing abuse is that its not even really a archtype just 5 cards with vague synergy
I'm gonna be perfectly honest. Blair's appearance is the difference between "playing duels in the school yard" and "existential crisis for card games" for the plot. Young love in a nutshell 😅
Alice's Dolls from GX and Cathy's Cats from Zexal are the two anime-exclusive archetypes i most want to see printed. there's also the series of LV monsters used by the knight guy in 5ds Fortune Cup arc which all had burn effects, the WIND airship things from Vrains, Titan's Matador Ritual monster from GX, the "Dark Tuner" monsters used by the Dark Signers in 5ds, The soccer cards from Zexal, The cards used by Zuzu's father in Arc-V season 1, Riley Akaba's C/C cards, and Barret's Beastborgs
They could easily print the Armor cards as an OTK deck with either a monster that looks like Valon as the boss monster or have a token that all the Armor monsters could equip to that can only be summoned while you have at least one Armor monster on the field
they really don't need to. the attaching thing was just for visuals. maybe alter a few of their effect's but that's honestly all. besides they have a restriction where only one can attack per turn so they can't otk.
Actually we know that we will never get the armor monsters because Konomi stated it wouldn’t make them because of kids trying to use them like the anime.
Alice apparently shocked me the most out of all the underrated Yu-Gi-Oh characters I've ever get to know from time to time... and speaking of goth/witch characters like the aforementioned Alice, can you please make a list about fighting game witches around Halloween?
I would so play Cat if it got released as a proper archetype. I don't care if it's bad, I would play it. Cathy is my fav member of Yuma's squad and I love cats. I could see Alice the Wandering Doll getting a retrain... but as a Gimmick Puppet monster, since she has several effects she shares with that archetype (putting stuff on your opponent's field and direct damage.) In fact the anime dolls seem like they may have aesthetically inspired Gimmick Puppet, though it could just be a coincidence. And yeah... as a Paleo player I know the pain of lab searching out EEV
I want to note that Jayden beats Alice by churning through all the Doll Parts so as to render the boss monster's resurrection effect unusable. Out of nowhere, it is a pretty slick duel.
Alchemy beast could be like the Horus monsters, but instead of being summoned from the graveyard once per turn, they can be summoned from banishment once per turn. And then give them some new support and retrains and it could be pretty cool.
it would be cool. plus making them fit the helios archetype would strengthen them and make the deck as complete as banner's was in the anime. and actual viable banish archetype would be great.
Seriously, you would be surprised how powerful things like apathy are. There have been actual studies that if you just walk around with a ladder and a high-vis vest, most people won't question why you are there or trying to get into a building. You literally use Occam's Razor against them: Which is more likely, that they are a real professional doing a job or a thief breaking in? Like yeah, its not an exact solution, but if you just need to break into a dorm one night it would work. Most of the faculty who would even question it aren't going to do it right then and there, and I doubt every Obelisk Blue teacher has memorized the names and faces of every Slypher Red. The actual more interesting part is that she has to disguise herself as a boy, because (and I found this out from a MangaKamen video) the actual school admin had some seriously weird gender equality issues.
@@WildDancer101 It part of his Girls of YuGiOh series, that covered GX. Apparently it is canon that Obelisk Blue is the only dorm that has the facilities for both boys and girls dorms, so if you are a girl you just get an auto-in to the best dorm regardless of your skill level.
To anyone who watched Arc V during the episodes that featured the Cook Pals... Did anyone hear the 4Kids dub of Fighting Foodons theme song play in their heads?
Chimera doll is one of the most interesting archetypes, because they have a boss monster that becomes more powerful every time it is beaten, and it does so by attaching new creepy doll parts to it. There are a lot of bricks (which can be a big problem I hope they would solve), but if you manage to summon the chimera, you end-up with a very strong and cool boss monster.
@@pokemontwu doubtful. the way they print meklords recently looks like they won't. that said they could do equip spells or union monsters with those. honestly that would also bring usage to 2 types of cards that are underutilised recently.
All the Meklord parts were in Tag Force 5 and 6 as are plenty of other anime only cards. It was super fun to have them swarm the field especially as the core gained the attack of all the parts so adding stuff like solidarity REALLY pumped up the attack
This video just shows how smooth brained I am when it comes to actually playing yugioh. Every time they talk about game mechanics, there is nothing but question marks in my head.
I feel ya. Before I got back in the game beyond Duel Links, everything seemed so foreign, which is why we try to tie our descriptions back to the classic mechanics so older players or people who just watched the anime can follow as best they can!
I'm picturing a spell card that lets you sacrifice Maiden in Love to summon Yubel or something. She already matches the "attack me and you have problems" aesthetic Renaming the Guardian monsters as Relic Guardian would clean up the archetype a bit. You could then tag the equipment as Relic cards. All you'd need, after that, is Relic and Relic Guardian support and retrains. You could even cross-synergize with Artifact cards to make it fun
I’m fairly certain the Armor cards and the Meklord core cards were in some of the Tag Force games. I miss those games, they used to include anime only cards, it was always fun to try them out.
I will always remember 5Ds clock monsters. Apparently no one has seen the episode but it always stayed with me. Its a nice one given its a crow episode and no motorbike dueling
That duel with the Maiden in love cards also amusingly had a Hero card mention we've never seen Sparkman, in the dub anyway, mentions that Sparkwoman would be furious with him I dunno about you all But I would love to see female counterparts of the main guy heroes, and a guy counterpart for Burstinatrix Real life superheroes have opposite gendered counterparts Why not these guys
7:59 Thank you! Heavy Metal King definitely needs to be part of the second wave for the Metalmorph archetype. One idea I think they could have his second effect be is basically one that is capable of reviving a monster that mentions Enhanced Metalmorph it’s text from the GY and if said trap is in the GY equip it to the revived monster. Also with Blair’s Maiden in love deck and Mystic deck I feel that for the irl archetype Konami could remake and combine the two into a Mystic Maiden archetype which could be a powerful medieval fairy tale archetype with the Maiden being the main ace of the deck.
or make it like the older metalmorphed monsters but have metalmorphs effect and maybe something extra like 2 attacks (encore) or a sort of piercing effect (ear splitting chords)
@@rednovastrum2475 Yeah but I just figured the new Metalmorph engine would need a second revival card that wasn’t a trap and re equips the enhanced Metalmorph to the revived monster but I guess it could also have a piercing damage effect.
Honestly a thought I had while watching this was to make an Xyz as a reference to Valon (call it something like Indomitable Fighter Valon) where each of the armor pieces essentially have zoodiac style effects that give the main guy specific effects. Or give them ritual Djinn style effects limited to a select number of extra deck monsters that are all references to popular anime characters, that way they could make a Joey & even potentially more character references. Also to keep them from being broken they can simply have an effect like "A (boss archetype) monster that uses this card as material gains the following effect: _" or simple summon restrictions like Mayakashis (I know there are more archetypes w/ summon restrictions like them but that was the 1st one I thought of)
Top of my list is the Red Demon Archetype from 5D's where Atlas fought the namesake of Red Dragon Archfiend to unlock more power or something, it involved burn power from the Graveyard. Also, I remember there was another food archetype in GX where they fought the school chef. It was mostly seasonings and curry.
so really fun fact about the armor cards. back in the 2000's on the beyond servers it was fully playable. there was a tournament and my brother played a deck focused on them but mainly a really silly combo using psychic head and buster pyle. long story short the deck leaned more into the "your opponent cant play the game" mode. he won the tourney and got a target gift card. i would like to see them made in RL but fix psychic head and buster pyle please. oh after the tournament they were limited to 1 on the server. cards were too good.
Maiden in love cards that I came up with Maiden’s prince-level 4 1600 attack and 1800 defence when this card is summoned you can special summon one maiden in love from your hand deck or graveyard and than you can add one card from your deck too your hand that specifically mentions maiden in love in it’s text. you can put a maiden counter on one monster your opponent controls you cannot special summon monsters from the extra deck the turn you activate any of these effects you can only use each effect of maidens prince once per turn
Maiden heartbreaker burstinitrix Level 4 same stats as burstinitrix Effect- If you control maiden in love you can special this card in your hand. Once per turn you can return all monsters with maiden counters to your hand and then inflict 200 damage too your opponent for each card returned to your hand And no it wasn’t an accident that I put return to your hand I just thought that would make the effect better than if the cards were destroyed plus this card is a reference too when Jaiden used burst return with burstinitrix against Blair in there first duel
I LOVE the Dark Mummy cards. Not only do they look cool, but they could have a lot of potential. I also like the Helixx and Motor Worm decks (mainly because I really love the Knights of Hanoi in general) Though, like you said, a lot of anime Vrains decks seem really cool. Storm Riders, Armatos Legios (I think I'm spelling that right) and Drones, just to name a few that weren't mentioned in this video. Sure, some of these archetypes need reworks (looking at Drones specifically), but they're still really cool and unique. Too bad Konami decided to give us Allure Queen support for this years Animation Chronicles (something that no one was asking for)
Tag Force 3, Blair has Lightsworn. At that point make her Lightsworn user. And Konomi refuses to give her Lightsworn ever since. I don't know why, since Blair's anime decks are comically bad and every other deck they gave her in later video games is random unplayable DM/GX era trash
@@soukenmarufwt5224 That's a simple answer Anime,Game,Manga, are different from each other good examples of this Managa Jaden Masked Heros as Elemental heros was never his deck as a friend of his leant them to him but the anime and game passed them off as his actual deck . Chaz had a pure Light and Darkness Dragon deck in the manga that has finally been printed and Manga Aster had a exclusive deck as well in Vision Hero. So Lightsworn is a exclusive for Tag Force Blair
Blair’s Mystic deck actually was not really a dragon deck that was just the monsters that were shown in the anime. There was also a magician and knight that would have upgrade forms like the dragon but unfortunately they were never shown.
@@traigongames Yeah. Though honestly when Konami gets around to printing Blair’s cards I now think instead of putting em into a side set like animation chronicles they should do combine the two into a medieval fairy tail archetype called something like Mystic Fairy Tale with the Maiden being the ace monster and decks strategy being producing mystic counters or keep as being called maiden counters on the opponent’s monsters that can negate their effects and take control of em then use the counters on the eggs to get out the baby monsters as well as help evolve em into their adult form with Mystic Revolution being able to summon out the adult forms without the baby forms and there also being a spell that allows Maiden to gain the combine atk of the Mystic monsters on the field. But that is just an idea I have been thinking of with those cards for quite some time.
@@thanoseid2883 did they ever print the old guy Yusei met in prisons cards yet? I forget his name, but it's when he needed to borrow his deck that eventually made a burn otk when the monsters where destroyed? Because that would be another set.
I requested her at some point during one of those player surveys. I feel if she was ever included, it would be once they cover all the major villains of season 2 and they're just looking for event filler, like how they put Sherry in after covering all the 5Ds final villains and Paradox.
For Amnael, I think you could make a deck full of spells that summon themselves as monsters, or make tokens, so that you don’t need to have a monster that can only be summoned by a spell. Then they could make retrains of Helios and allow you to search macro cosmos, but with some restriction or prerequisite that keeps it from just being a floodgate engine for other decks. Maybe you can find macro cosmos with a boss fusion monster that requires alchemy beasts to summon. Also, Amnael could use Eldlich in the modern game. Eldlich is based on alchemy. Eldlich himself is an embodiment of the Philisopher’s Stone, and the Eldlixir cards reference the same colored Processes that Amnael used on his cards (Scarlet Sanguine = Red Process Rubedo, for example). So even if Bannner’s alchemy beasts didn’t exist, he could use another golden alchemy archetype.
I would say the anime only archetype I would like to see really printed would have to be Vivian Wong’s martial arts deck. It would give master monk and chu-ske the mouse fighter support they need.
Blair's appearance is the difference between "playing duels in the school yard" and "existential crisis for card games" for the plot. Young love in a nutshell 😅
I still want judgment arrows though I'd put a few conditions on it to print it. 1 requires a link monster pointing to the spell zone you want to activate this card in. 2 upon playing this card all other copies of judgement arrows in your hand, deck or graveyard are banished face down. 3, "judgment arrows" effect can only be applied once to a monster pointed to by judgement arrows. 4 only one face up Judgment arrows can exist on your Field or in your Graveyard/banish zone if another judgement arrows is activated the other judgement arrows is banished face down. And the final effect to make it harder to play, banish face down all duplicate Cards in your extra deck until each card only one copy with that name in the extra deck (deck building constraints and effectively making extra deck banishment a nuke to consistency since you can't play dupes)
Instead of banishing all other copeis face-down can't you just put a "You can only activate this card once per Duel" like the Seal of Orichalcos? It would be simpler and doesn't make your deck thinner / helps banishing stuff decks
@@MrTopTenList Yaa I get why the doll monsters were on here but man those things where scarry to me. I'm afrade of dolls, besides Monster High, and Ever After High.
36:20 speaking of Union monsters, I wish they would print the rest of Chazz's union cards. He had 3 that looked like bugs and could combine just like ABC and VWXYZ.
Hoping they eventually make Solomon's Ancient cards (could be called "Ancient Expedition" so it doesn't screw around with Gear support), and the New Orders cards.
judgment arrows could be printed if it had a restriction to only allow monsters from the decks that need it from the show to be special summoned to the zone it points to
I love my silly cat deck in DL. Stopping all attacks, 4000 atk boss monster with the field spell, and the low life points means the direct attacks are a real threat. ProTip, the best Rank 1 to throw in (for the moment) is the pair "Crime" and "Punishment", Numbers, 13 and 31
I have a feeling if the Mekklord part monsters were made a reality, they would have to be slightly nerfed by including the text "This card cannot be used for a Link Summon" just to prevent having five Link Material immediately at any point in the duel.
Do it like Obliterate!!! Blaze, have the pieces attach directly from the Deck to the Meklord Emperor so they never touch the Monster Zone and get Linked away, or the ultimate insult in their cold, metallic eyes-used as Synchro Material!
For the ninja archetype I'd rename it to super star ninja and have the have synergy with the kaiju You know iv always wondered are thes in show archetype costumes made like there the only ine to have them or are they building there personality around there archetype
I feel like if heart tokens do anything, they should feel like a gift. Giving monsters extra attack, defense, or something like that. Only for it to be used against the owner of those monsters in some way. Like her taking control or forcing those monsters to switch with her when attacked. Or even using those monsters to direct attack the owner.
12:23 This is completely wrong: Nekogal #2 isn't even part of the Neko archetype because the Nekogals' names are spelled "Kyatto Redi" and "Kyattsu Fearī" as you can see, "cat" is spelled differently with each of them and they do not have Neko in the name. Also, all of her Neko cards were localized as Cat cards but she does have Nekos in her deck. Monster Cat for example is Bake Neko. Also Duel Links and ZEXAL World Duel Carnival changed the effect of Inviting cat to only search Cat Girl monsters and Stray Cat monsters just to avoid the logistical issues of the neko and cat archetypes in the TCG outright.
The armor archetype was my favourite from the original anime. It was basically Iron Man armor pieces before Iron Man became mainstream in the public eye.
I could easily see Alchemy Beasts being reworked to be somewhat similar to the Gold Sarcophagus of Light or King's Sarcophagus archetypes. Doll Chimera could keep the normal monsters and just have link or fusion monsters that either combo like World Chalice or have a mix of effects that work fill the grave with the normal monsters as cost or require and/or scale with having more of them in the grave.
Funny thing about Cats: when theiy were first announced for that crappy 3DS game and their effect texts were published, Monster Cat was mis-translated in its announcement as just destroying all monsters, rather than only lvl 4 and below. Which would've made it bonkers broken for that time: destroyed in battle was actually still very common back then, and combined with Monster Cat returning Stray Cat from the GY to your hand you'd have a constant loop of field wiping + burning (a very respectable 800 per monster, not 400 like in Duel Links), with minimal card investment (you'd just build a normal 36 card deck and add 3x Stray Cat + 1x Monster Cat). But then the game released and the mistranslation became apparant, showing the card only works on lvl 4 and below, and well... [insert noise of someone spraying fecal gunk all over his toilet]
Part of me wishes I was into all those Yugioh games from the DS/3DS era since there were so many hidden "gems" of cards that we got in those. Monster Cat actually be broken (potentially) is super funny.
I got my wish with the main archetype I wanted to see printed with the news that we'd be getting the rest of the Performage cards that were never printed... seriously the amount of Performage cards that just didn't get printed was nuts, and I'm glad we are finally getting the missing ones... and a few new ones!
Glad you liked it! Since I like capping off fighting game entries in other videos with a super move or KO screen, I've been looking for the thing like that for Yugioh videos, so Duel Links victory lines fit that the most. I wish I did it a bit more in this video and the boss monster list, but I'll be keeping it in mind for the future.
Doll of demise is real, it’s just made into an effect monster and it’s got a slight name change of malice doll of demise. Unless you want a normal monster version?
The Doll of Demise comment was a reference to our video on the "weirdest retrains" where we talk about how Malice Doll of Demise is a retrain of original Doll of Demise, and we discussed how it may be the only retrain of a card that doesn't exist irl. We were just referring to how the OG Doll never got printed in any form since Malice is technically a different monster.
21:31 I mean Revolver not only had Mirror Force and Magic Cylinder, he had _support_ for them. Mirror force had appeared the least in Zexal and Arc-V and then here comes the rival character Revolver with freaking Mirror Force _Launcher_ Too bad that in spite of being the main rival, he barely even dueled in VRAINS and Mirror Force only appeared one more time than Zexal (not counting the post-series non-canon specials)...
The decks here I'd like to see get printed are Ninjas (but only the effect monsters and the kite), Cats, Doll Parts, Dark Mummy, Motor Worms, Maiden in Love, and Armor.
23:30 that’s why I created a brand new type of card based around judgment arrows called Link pendulum monsters where they have links that point up whether it’s 1, 2 or 3 arrows so if you managed to get them in the pendulum zone since they moved the Pendulum Zones to the back rows of the ends of the spell & trap card zones, this is a perfect way to summon out more monsters from the extra deck, whether they are Link monsters or Pendulum monsters! Also, if you have a Pendulum scale, that’s between zero and nine, you’ll be able to summon the special link pendulum monsters depending on what link pendulum card are face up in the extra deck!
Dude, Armatos Legio is the archetype everyone wants bc its the most fleshed out in modern ygo anime besides Hydradrive but i tested Hydradrive on Edopro and its not just good like they have one main deck monster to normal summon and if you dont start with it you can pass turn. Armatos Legio aint great either but it has a game plan, cool cards and there are enough cards for this archetype to build a deck without mixing it with another deck.
Armatos Legio is definitely going on Volume 2. We were discussing with of the 2 Judgment Arrow archetypes was going on this list when making it and Hydradrive won simply because we suggested it first, but we already started planning out our thoughts for Armatos Legio.
8:43 Strike Ninja started out as a Dungeon Dice Monster who wasn't released until three years later (the year after Duke used him in Duel Monsters) though, _Armed_ Ninja was the old staple in the card game, being the spell card equivalent of Trap Master and released as early as Legend of Blue-Eyes White Dragon, the first TCG set (but _not_ the first OCG set). Also Armed Ninja even appeared in the anime before Strike Ninja as part of the Legendary Heroes arc.
37:39 principug doesn’t even work with Rafael’s guardians. Most of them can be normal summoned (if the right card is out). This guy supports Gate Guardian and Voiceless Voice (Skull Guardian) more than it does Rafael’s stuff
We were specifically thinking of Eatos and Dreadscythe since they have that clause. It's not much, but it's the smallest crumb of support for some of his Guardians.
I wouldn't mind some of Joey's luck cards too. I know they're gimmicky, nobody's gonna play cards where you have to let Lady Luck take the wheel, but the point of gimmicks is that they're silly fun to use.
Here's my take on the Armor Cards: Once you have all pieces assembled, two things happen: - They become untargetable by attacks (and maybe spell / traps as well) - You can only attack with one piece per turn, that piece gets attack equal to your Life Points until the end of the turn / the start of your next turn Basically, once you have the armor, YOU become the boss monster instead, and the individual effects of the pieces could be altered to facilitate extra protection / bonus effects like effect damage protection or piercing attack
The "armor" deck could actually be really interesting as a sort of stall/burn continuous spell deck based on making the duelist effectively a monster, where the pieces that successfully hit the board are almost impossible to remove *by either player* making your decision of how to build your armor extremely important, and they provide passive benefits that make you harder to kill and allow you (the duelist) to attack via a hybrid target destruction/burn damage effect. Like one makes it so that you take X less damage (percent or flat, both have up and downsides), one lets you destroy monsters or - if no valid monster target exists - deal burn damage to your opponent (something like "activate this effect; target and destroy one opponent monster. If you cannot, your opponent takes X damage."), one lets you spam-negate things (whether 1/turn or as long as you can pay a cost), etc. etc. I think the key to having it be balanced is to either have each variant have an incredibly specific niche that it handles and have 10+ niches so that you have to choose what niches you need filled in this particular duel and maybe settle for what you have available instead of waiting for the exact card you want, OR the cards are broader but weaker and you're expected to play multiple copies of one of the parts to bulk up that particular set of effects. Taking the "damage reduction" I touched on earlier to demonstrate the difference and using random numbers cuz I'm not balancing the cards I'm giving an example to give the gist, you could have either a pair of cards - "reduce battle damage taken by 2000" and "reduce effect damage taken by 2000" - or one card that has "reduce all instances of damage taken by 1000". Same total effect for two card slots, but one expects you to pick and choose which damage type is more concerning while the other expects you to play extra copies if you're THAT concerned about getting hit.
I am right there with you, with the Armor and the Hydradrives... we needs them. I would also love the roman inspired archetype that the Light ignis used _can't remember names_ or Riley's C/C/C archetype granted that relies too heavily on your opponents playing specific things based off of anime design, but if you tweaked it to allow for the tokens to be used as the materials no matter what then I think it would be fixed.
YES!!!! The armor! I've been wanting to see that for years!!!! It's so cool. I know it would be hard to balance, but they balanced Six Sams so they can balance that. Bring it out!!!
Thank you! The pug supports Guardian monsters that can't be normal summoned/set, which are restrictions on the 2 Guardian bosses, Eatos and Dreadscythe, so they can technically be helped by the pug. It's not good support for the whole archetype, but it was the last crumb of support some of Raphael's Guardians were related to.
25:05 I actually came up with an equip card involving the magma diver plugsuit from evangelion that basically protects the equipped monster from all fire attribute monsters effects so I’m totally on board with having an archetype being able to be immune to monsters of certain attributes
How they could work: Cook Pals - play into the burn traps, like an overly spicy meal, the more spices added to the pot (more traps in the graveyard or under food cemetery) the damage is dealt. For example; "Inflict 300 damage to your opponent, double this damage for every "Cookpal" card with a different name underneath "Food Cemetary"" Meklord - Add support that targets all extra deck monsters. A line of Meklord for Fusion, XYZ, Link, and the originals for Synchro Stunt Ninjas - Magnum is a stunt performer, so have these card based off famous stunt actors (For example, Jackie Chan) Their effects could play into the idea of them being a stunt team. Idea for an archetypal effect; "Once per turn, you can banish this monster until the end phase and special summon one "Stunt Ninja" Synchro monster from your extra deck with the same attribute and level as this monster. When this card is special summed from the banish zone, return all monsters to the extra with the same level/rank/link as this monster." Basically creating an archetype that can synchro summon with just one monster. Doll Chimera - Similar to Skull Servant decks, only give it the clause to banish doll monsters from the graveyard to negate effects Dark Mummy - Field and hand control with the virus traps, plus have the Dark Mummy monsters inflict burn damage for every card sent to the graveyard due to the effect of a virus trap. For example, Crush Card Virus gives the opponent the choice of sending 3 monsters from their deck to the graveyard, an effect that helps the opponent in the modern game. If you had 2 monsters who inflicted 500 damage for each card sent, then the opponent needs to be willing to spend 3000 lifepoints to stack their graveyard. This would also make up for the Dark Mummy monsters low attack stat. Hydradrive - Shown off really well in the anime. It provides great field control and lets you have the advantage over any opponent who predominately uses only one attribute if their deck. Maden in Love - Cover the monster's low attack with an effect that saves you from OTK. A spell with the effect "As long as this card remains face up on the field, your life points cannot be reduced lower than 100 with battles involving "Maden in Love."" And another spell card that reads, "As long as this card and Maden in Love are face up on the field, your opponent must attack Maden in Love with their highest Attack point monster at the start of the battle phase." These clauses save the owner from being OTK'd, and gives them control of the opponent's strongest monster to use against them next turn. Pair this with Dark Door and you've got a mean combo. Alchemy Beasts - Good field spam and can play into cards like Gren Maju really well. Also, similar to Hydradrive, it helps you control the field based on the attributes of the opponent's deck. Armor - The anime showcased it perfectly. Good field spam. Lot's of negates. Gives you the excuse to literally punch your opponent in the face. What's not to love?
37:30 - I actually came up with an idea for how to make Guardians playable, while giving some love to that most neglected method, Ritual. Simply make the Guardians Ritual monsters, with their signature Equips instead being the corresponding Ritual Spells. Have them be able to Ritual Summon the given monster from hand or gy and then equip themselves as the equip spells once that happens. Still needs a bit more fleshing out, probably in the realm of non-specific Ritual Summon effects and conditions for being able to use the 'Ritual Spells' as regular Equips without the RS to increase their flexibility, but I feel pretty confident about this.
Alchemy Beast would be so interesting as its whole archtype based around spell cards bringing out monsters and attacking directly...so cool. Fits my style of play nicely.
I'm surprised the Doll Part cards haven't been printed yet. They were in a voting contest of cards to be printed and were in the top 5. That was the contest Fossils won and were printed. But I really want the Cookpal, Doll Part, Spice/Curry, and Maiden In Love cards printed! They can update their effects, but if they were a normal monster in the anime they need to stay that way!
Fossils winning does make sense since Jim was the only major protagonist from season 3 not to have his cards printed at the time, and he definitely more deserving than a one-off villain, but I really would've liked another poll that gave Doll Parts a chance.
@MrTopTenList It would be amazing if they brought back voting for archetypes to be printed. An entire set that's just the top 5/10 archetypes we want printed!🤞
Not gonna lie, I got super hyped at the Doll Parts section. I _adore_ the Princess Cologne pseudo-archetype and would love to be able to expand their gameplan in new directions while maintaining aesthetic similarity. And as a fan of Madolches, Nemleria, Nouvelles, _and_ Suships, I agree that food-themed archetypes are always fun. For other anime-only archetypes... Well, most of them have already been made in some capacity or another (though a lot of them could certainly do with retrains by this point), but one of the first that comes to mind is the Yomi archetype; the one used by the Crimson Devil's Familiar, who Jack dueled to gain his Red Nova Dragon. It was kind of a... stall-burn strategy, based around repeatedly destroying your own monsters to inflict burn damage and prevent your opponent from attacking. Being DARK Fiends with 0/0 stats, I feel like they could make for some interesting Yubel or Unchained hybrids with a bit of tweaking, though realistically speaking I imagine they'd be more likely to be adjusted to support Red Dragon Archfiend or Earthbound Immortal decks instead.
For me, I wish Judgement Arrows and Gatling Orge got officially printed. But I also hope the Fairy Tail archetype gets fully grown. The Fairy Tails are a neat concept and having their own archetype with more spells and add traps and extra deck monsters for them could make the archetype very appealing and fun.
I think the Alchemy cards have the potential to be some of the most interesting archetype cards out there, just going off of what would happen if you were to fuse a certain number of elements together and what that would create IRL it would make for an interesting kind of deck where sometimes you'd want copies of one monster more than the other which runs the risk of someone ruining your whole plan but the counter payoff is that you end up with a stronger monster or a monster that is statistically weaker but has a really strong ability that may be bored wipes or banishes every monster from the graveyards and gets points from the banished
Vira is one of the best filler episode characters in all of YGO imo because she plays cards from DM and maybe very very early GX that were never really seen much if at all, and apparently does so to decent effect even if she didn't win
So I actually been working on custom card re-trains of 2 of the archetypes mentioned in this video: Jean Claude's ninja (which I named Ninja Army since they seem to like to be summoned in large numbers like an army) and the Alchemy Beast. Ninja Army: [Main play style spam the field with smaller ninja warriors and either play into the 3 main deck Ninja Army Masters or Go into the Extra Deck Ninja Army Shadows] I kept their swarming, but limited to the Ninja Army cards, gave Soldier and Kunoichi effects, 5 more main deck monster including 3 Tuners, and 2 lvl-5, 5 different Synchros (The Synchros having a Flood Gate effect), and lastly the few spell & traps i designed (6 in total) effects vary depending on how many Ninja Army you control. Alchemy Beast: [Main play style still revolve direct battle and banishing, while adding additional fire power with new fusion monsters, locking out counter attacks outside the battle phase, and giving additional benefits for banishing cards] I added a fusion effect to Chaos Distill, made 5 more alchemy beast and spells to go with them, turned the process cards into continuous spell (some effects scaled back, and others with new effects entirely), created 8 fusion monsters (Alchemic Chimeras), made a field spell, and lastly made a bunch of Battle Lock related spells & traps for extra protection/advantage.
List of anime/manga archetypes/series I want to be printed: New order Orichalcos Beetron Armatos legio Stormrider Hydradrive Curry Cookpal Drone Doll part Dizzy Dart Clock knight D-scale Topologina Gutsmasters Kabuki stage Statue Pendulumstatue Heart monster Beastborg Landstar
Reira's C/C archetype was absolutely one of the coolest anime-onlys. I don't even care that it would only ever be rogue at best, I want the deck that just copies elements of opponents' monsters to access a cool extra deck toolbox.
With the Maiden in Love card add a extra deck monster with a very high attack and effect that it can only be summed if a monster with a “Maiden Counter” on it is removed from the field, then sacrifice the Maiden in Love to summon it. And call it “Widowed Maiden”
Remember when Sparkman and Avian "fell in love" with a princess card and Burstinarix "snapped them out" b/c she was a "girl" card ? lol

She beat Joey in the second Orichalcos duel. Some strange duelist from a tournament flashback.
The funniest thing is, the reason that they never printed the Armor cards is that they were afraid that players would use them as an excuse to punch their opponents like Valon did.
Well, now we have the new Exodia cards for that. 😈
We got to make the "hot sauce" archetype and totally not a drunk archetype that references domestic violence
honestly that was a fun archetype. pity people reduce it because of the hot sauce thing.
Honeslty i think it what stops it from being made even more then it referencing abuse is that its not even really a archtype just 5 cards with vague synergy

Alice's Dolls from GX and Cathy's Cats from Zexal are the two anime-exclusive archetypes i most want to see printed. there's also the series of LV monsters used by the knight guy in 5ds Fortune Cup arc which all had burn effects, the WIND airship things from Vrains, Titan's Matador Ritual monster from GX, the "Dark Tuner" monsters used by the Dark Signers in 5ds, The soccer cards from Zexal, The cards used by Zuzu's father in Arc-V season 1, Riley Akaba's C/C cards, and Barret's Beastborgs
I can see Storm Riders being imported in next year’s Animation Chronicle since that archetype doesn’t involve the big hurdle being *Judgement Arrows.*
Do Cat Shark and Mannequin Cat count? Probably not, that would be like if the only gimmick puppets we got were the number xyzs
the matador is in DL.
They could easily print the Armor cards as an OTK deck with either a monster that looks like Valon as the boss monster or have a token that all the Armor monsters could equip to that can only be summoned while you have at least one Armor monster on the field
they really don't need to. the attaching thing was just for visuals. maybe alter a few of their effect's but that's honestly all. besides they have a restriction where only one can attack per turn so they can't otk.
Actually we know that we will never get the armor monsters because Konomi stated it wouldn’t make them because of kids trying to use them like the anime.
@@CardfightRanger if anyone did they would get booted from their locals or get in trouble.
YGO stop stealing ideas from MTG Challenge: "Kaldra Edition"
Noble warriors
The archetypes I most want:
- Doll Chimera
- Beastborg
- Armor
Good stuff! I suspect that they never made the Armor cards to prevent a lawsuit when kids would declare an attack and then swing a mean right hook. xD
Alice apparently shocked me the most out of all the underrated Yu-Gi-Oh characters I've ever get to know from time to time... and speaking of goth/witch characters like the aforementioned Alice, can you please make a list about fighting game witches around Halloween?
I would so play Cat if it got released as a proper archetype. I don't care if it's bad, I would play it. Cathy is my fav member of Yuma's squad and I love cats.
I could see Alice the Wandering Doll getting a retrain... but as a Gimmick Puppet monster, since she has several effects she shares with that archetype (putting stuff on your opponent's field and direct damage.) In fact the anime dolls seem like they may have aesthetically inspired Gimmick Puppet, though it could just be a coincidence.
And yeah... as a Paleo player I know the pain of lab searching out EEV
They should also make Joey's Aura Armor and Big Bang Dragon Blow if they make Valon's Armor archetype.
I want to note that Jayden beats Alice by churning through all the Doll Parts so as to render the boss monster's resurrection effect unusable. Out of nowhere, it is a pretty slick duel.
I need a part two and three of this topic now
It's on the docket!
Alchemy beast could be like the Horus monsters, but instead of being summoned from the graveyard once per turn, they can be summoned from banishment once per turn. And then give them some new support and retrains and it could be pretty cool.
it would be cool. plus making them fit the helios archetype would strengthen them and make the deck as complete as banner's was in the anime. and actual viable banish archetype would be great.

hmm just realised that Hydradrive's true weakness is The Three Egyptian God Cards
but Divine is an attribute that Hydradrive can target for effects

It'll never make sense that a random kid shows up, says "I'm a transfer student" and ABSOLUTELY NO FACULTY MEMBER QUESTIONS IT
Seriously, you would be surprised how powerful things like apathy are. There have been actual studies that if you just walk around with a ladder and a high-vis vest, most people won't question why you are there or trying to get into a building. You literally use Occam's Razor against them: Which is more likely, that they are a real professional doing a job or a thief breaking in?
Like yeah, its not an exact solution, but if you just need to break into a dorm one night it would work. Most of the faculty who would even question it aren't going to do it right then and there, and I doubt every Obelisk Blue teacher has memorized the names and faces of every Slypher Red.
The actual more interesting part is that she has to disguise herself as a boy, because (and I found this out from a MangaKamen video) the actual school admin had some seriously weird gender equality issues.
@@RoxxieRaeVA Yeah, girls get automatically sent to Obelisk Blue, even when they suck at dueling like Mindy and Jasmine, it's really weird

Speaking of food decks only in the anime, there's a curry deck in GX
1) Yes
2) Same for Nouvelles 🍔
Chimera doll is one of the most interesting archetypes, because they have a boss monster that becomes more powerful every time it is beaten, and it does so by attaching new creepy doll parts to it. There are a lot of bricks (which can be a big problem I hope they would solve), but if you manage to summon the chimera, you end-up with a very strong and cool boss monster.
The first card that introduced me to Meklord archetype is Meklord emperor Wisel. Never used it, but the artwork is cool
It’d be very interesting if we got Meklord Emperor cards as actual pieces like in the anime compared to the single entity we got here.
@@pokemontwu doubtful. the way they print meklords recently looks like they won't. that said they could do equip spells or union monsters with those. honestly that would also bring usage to 2 types of cards that are underutilised recently.
All the Meklord parts were in Tag Force 5 and 6 as are plenty of other anime only cards. It was super fun to have them swarm the field especially as the core gained the attack of all the parts so adding stuff like solidarity REALLY pumped up the attack
This video just shows how smooth brained I am when it comes to actually playing yugioh. Every time they talk about game mechanics, there is nothing but question marks in my head.
I feel ya. Before I got back in the game beyond Duel Links, everything seemed so foreign, which is why we try to tie our descriptions back to the classic mechanics so older players or people who just watched the anime can follow as best they can!
I'm picturing a spell card that lets you sacrifice Maiden in Love to summon Yubel or something. She already matches the "attack me and you have problems" aesthetic
Renaming the Guardian monsters as Relic Guardian would clean up the archetype a bit. You could then tag the equipment as Relic cards. All you'd need, after that, is Relic and Relic Guardian support and retrains. You could even cross-synergize with Artifact cards to make it fun
Top 10 disturbing archetypes in Yu-Gi-Oh
heck yeah. that would be cool. gimmick puppet's would be up there.
They actually did a John Claude Magnum duel that an event he used new cards but I haven’t seen the whole duel so I wouldn’t know what he was using.
I’m fairly certain the Armor cards and the Meklord core cards were in some of the Tag Force games.
I miss those games, they used to include anime only cards, it was always fun to try them out.
Are you telling me the core monsters have not been released yet? I played the hell out of tag force.
Nonjas, thank you for that Speed Racer reference 😂
I will always remember 5Ds clock monsters. Apparently no one has seen the episode but it always stayed with me. Its a nice one given its a crow episode and no motorbike dueling
That duel with the Maiden in love cards also amusingly had a Hero card mention we've never seen
Sparkman, in the dub anyway, mentions that Sparkwoman would be furious with him
I dunno about you all
But I would love to see female counterparts of the main guy heroes, and a guy counterpart for Burstinatrix
Real life superheroes have opposite gendered counterparts
Why not these guys
elemental hero lady heat is the only counterpart for a hero monster so far sadly
7:59 Thank you! Heavy Metal King definitely needs to be part of the second wave for the Metalmorph archetype. One idea I think they could have his second effect be is basically one that is capable of reviving a monster that mentions Enhanced Metalmorph it’s text from the GY and if said trap is in the GY equip it to the revived monster.
Also with Blair’s Maiden in love deck and Mystic deck I feel that for the irl archetype Konami could remake and combine the two into a Mystic Maiden archetype which could be a powerful medieval fairy tale archetype with the Maiden being the main ace of the deck.
or make it like the older metalmorphed monsters but have metalmorphs effect and maybe something extra like 2 attacks (encore) or a sort of piercing effect (ear splitting chords)
@@rednovastrum2475 Yeah but I just figured the new Metalmorph engine would need a second revival card that wasn’t a trap and re equips the enhanced Metalmorph to the revived monster but I guess it could also have a piercing damage effect.
Honestly a thought I had while watching this was to make an Xyz as a reference to Valon (call it something like Indomitable Fighter Valon) where each of the armor pieces essentially have zoodiac style effects that give the main guy specific effects. Or give them ritual Djinn style effects limited to a select number of extra deck monsters that are all references to popular anime characters, that way they could make a Joey & even potentially more character references. Also to keep them from being broken they can simply have an effect like "A (boss archetype) monster that uses this card as material gains the following effect: _" or simple summon restrictions like Mayakashis (I know there are more archetypes w/ summon restrictions like them but that was the 1st one I thought of)
Top of my list is the Red Demon Archetype from 5D's where Atlas fought the namesake of Red Dragon Archfiend to unlock more power or something, it involved burn power from the Graveyard. Also, I remember there was another food archetype in GX where they fought the school chef. It was mostly seasonings and curry.
so really fun fact about the armor cards. back in the 2000's on the beyond servers it was fully playable. there was a tournament and my brother played a deck focused on them but mainly a really silly combo using psychic head and buster pyle. long story short the deck leaned more into the "your opponent cant play the game" mode. he won the tourney and got a target gift card. i would like to see them made in RL but fix psychic head and buster pyle please. oh after the tournament they were limited to 1 on the server. cards were too good.
Maiden in love cards that I came up with
Maiden’s prince-level 4 1600 attack and 1800 defence
when this card is summoned you can special summon one maiden in love from your hand deck or graveyard and than you can add one card from your deck too your hand that specifically mentions maiden in love in it’s text. you can put a maiden counter on one monster your opponent controls you cannot special summon monsters from the extra deck the turn you activate any of these effects you can only use each effect of maidens prince once per turn
Maiden heartbreaker burstinitrix
Level 4 same stats as burstinitrix
Effect- If you control maiden in love you can special this card in your hand. Once per turn you can return all monsters with maiden counters to your hand and then inflict 200 damage too your opponent for each card returned to your hand
And no it wasn’t an accident that I put return to your hand I just thought that would make the effect better than if the cards were destroyed plus this card is a reference too when Jaiden used burst return with burstinitrix against Blair in there first duel
I’ll probably make a avian card and a sparkman card
I LOVE the Dark Mummy cards. Not only do they look cool, but they could have a lot of potential. I also like the Helixx and Motor Worm decks (mainly because I really love the Knights of Hanoi in general)
Though, like you said, a lot of anime Vrains decks seem really cool. Storm Riders, Armatos Legios (I think I'm spelling that right) and Drones, just to name a few that weren't mentioned in this video. Sure, some of these archetypes need reworks (looking at Drones specifically), but they're still really cool and unique. Too bad Konami decided to give us Allure Queen support for this years Animation Chronicles (something that no one was asking for)
I honestly forgot Blair had her own Dragon deck XD
Tag Force 3, Blair has Lightsworn. At that point make her Lightsworn user.
And Konomi refuses to give her Lightsworn ever since. I don't know why, since Blair's anime decks are comically bad and every other deck they gave her in later video games is random unplayable DM/GX era trash
@@soukenmarufwt5224 That's a simple answer Anime,Game,Manga, are different from each other good examples of this Managa Jaden Masked Heros as Elemental heros was never his deck as a friend of his leant them to him but the anime and game passed them off as his actual deck . Chaz had a pure Light and Darkness Dragon deck in the manga that has finally been printed and Manga Aster had a exclusive deck as well in Vision Hero. So Lightsworn is a exclusive for Tag Force Blair
Blair’s Mystic deck actually was not really a dragon deck that was just the monsters that were shown in the anime. There was also a magician and knight that would have upgrade forms like the dragon but unfortunately they were never shown.
@@kish45 Ya which is why I consider it a Dragon Deck even though that wasn't the case
@@traigongames Yeah. Though honestly when Konami gets around to printing Blair’s cards I now think instead of putting em into a side set like animation chronicles they should do combine the two into a medieval fairy tail archetype called something like Mystic Fairy Tale with the Maiden being the ace monster and decks strategy being producing mystic counters or keep as being called maiden counters on the opponent’s monsters that can negate their effects and take control of em then use the counters on the eggs to get out the baby monsters as well as help evolve em into their adult form with Mystic Revolution being able to summon out the adult forms without the baby forms and there also being a spell that allows Maiden to gain the combine atk of the Mystic monsters on the field. But that is just an idea I have been thinking of with those cards for quite some time.

12:56 No way Konami put Cathy's cards in Duel Links and still haven't put her in yet. It's just not fair.
I requested her at some point during one of those player surveys. I feel if she was ever included, it would be once they cover all the major villains of season 2 and they're just looking for event filler, like how they put Sherry in after covering all the 5Ds final villains and Paradox.
It's a Cat-astrophy. Absolutely hair brained. Shiver me whiskers, how have they not added her in yet? It's a Purr-fect fit!
For Amnael, I think you could make a deck full of spells that summon themselves as monsters, or make tokens, so that you don’t need to have a monster that can only be summoned by a spell.
Then they could make retrains of Helios and allow you to search macro cosmos, but with some restriction or prerequisite that keeps it from just being a floodgate engine for other decks. Maybe you can find macro cosmos with a boss fusion monster that requires alchemy beasts to summon.
Also, Amnael could use Eldlich in the modern game. Eldlich is based on alchemy. Eldlich himself is an embodiment of the Philisopher’s Stone, and the Eldlixir cards reference the same colored Processes that Amnael used on his cards (Scarlet Sanguine = Red Process Rubedo, for example). So even if Bannner’s alchemy beasts didn’t exist, he could use another golden alchemy archetype.
I would say the anime only archetype I would like to see really printed would have to be Vivian Wong’s martial arts deck. It would give master monk and chu-ske the mouse fighter support they need.

I still want judgment arrows though I'd put a few conditions on it to print it.
1 requires a link monster pointing to the spell zone you want to activate this card in.
2 upon playing this card all other copies of judgement arrows in your hand, deck or graveyard are banished face down.
3, "judgment arrows" effect can only be applied once to a monster pointed to by judgement arrows.
4 only one face up Judgment arrows can exist on your Field or in your Graveyard/banish zone if another judgement arrows is activated the other judgement arrows is banished face down.
And the final effect to make it harder to play, banish face down all duplicate Cards in your extra deck until each card only one copy with that name in the extra deck (deck building constraints and effectively making extra deck banishment a nuke to consistency since you can't play dupes)
Instead of banishing all other copeis face-down can't you just put a "You can only activate this card once per Duel" like the Seal of Orichalcos? It would be simpler and doesn't make your deck thinner / helps banishing stuff decks

I love my silly cat deck in DL. Stopping all attacks, 4000 atk boss monster with the field spell, and the low life points means the direct attacks are a real threat. ProTip, the best Rank 1 to throw in (for the moment) is the pair "Crime" and "Punishment", Numbers, 13 and 31
I have a feeling if the Mekklord part monsters were made a reality, they would have to be slightly nerfed by including the text "This card cannot be used for a Link Summon" just to prevent having five Link Material immediately at any point in the duel.
Do it like Obliterate!!! Blaze, have the pieces attach directly from the Deck to the Meklord Emperor so they never touch the Monster Zone and get Linked away, or the ultimate insult in their cold, metallic eyes-used as Synchro Material!

I feel like if heart tokens do anything, they should feel like a gift. Giving monsters extra attack, defense, or something like that.
Only for it to be used against the owner of those monsters in some way. Like her taking control or forcing those monsters to switch with her when attacked. Or even using those monsters to direct attack the owner.
12:23 This is completely wrong: Nekogal #2 isn't even part of the Neko archetype because the Nekogals' names are spelled "Kyatto Redi" and "Kyattsu Fearī" as you can see, "cat" is spelled differently with each of them and they do not have Neko in the name.
Also, all of her Neko cards were localized as Cat cards but she does have Nekos in her deck. Monster Cat for example is Bake Neko. Also Duel Links and ZEXAL World Duel Carnival changed the effect of Inviting cat to only search Cat Girl monsters and Stray Cat monsters just to avoid the logistical issues of the neko and cat archetypes in the TCG outright.
The armor archetype was my favourite from the original anime. It was basically Iron Man armor pieces before Iron Man became mainstream in the public eye.
please do the part two , i am very enjoy your content
I could easily see Alchemy Beasts being reworked to be somewhat similar to the Gold Sarcophagus of Light or King's Sarcophagus archetypes.
Doll Chimera could keep the normal monsters and just have link or fusion monsters that either combo like World Chalice or have a mix of effects that work fill the grave with the normal monsters as cost or require and/or scale with having more of them in the grave.
Funny thing about Cats: when theiy were first announced for that crappy 3DS game and their effect texts were published, Monster Cat was mis-translated in its announcement as just destroying all monsters, rather than only lvl 4 and below. Which would've made it bonkers broken for that time: destroyed in battle was actually still very common back then, and combined with Monster Cat returning Stray Cat from the GY to your hand you'd have a constant loop of field wiping + burning (a very respectable 800 per monster, not 400 like in Duel Links), with minimal card investment (you'd just build a normal 36 card deck and add 3x Stray Cat + 1x Monster Cat). But then the game released and the mistranslation became apparant, showing the card only works on lvl 4 and below, and well... [insert noise of someone spraying fecal gunk all over his toilet]
Part of me wishes I was into all those Yugioh games from the DS/3DS era since there were so many hidden "gems" of cards that we got in those. Monster Cat actually be broken (potentially) is super funny.
I got my wish with the main archetype I wanted to see printed with the news that we'd be getting the rest of the Performage cards that were never printed... seriously the amount of Performage cards that just didn't get printed was nuts, and I'm glad we are finally getting the missing ones... and a few new ones!

@@MrTopTenList it flows really well but it always catches me off guard.
Doll of demise is real, it’s just made into an effect monster and it’s got a slight name change of malice doll of demise. Unless you want a normal monster version?
The Doll of Demise comment was a reference to our video on the "weirdest retrains" where we talk about how Malice Doll of Demise is a retrain of original Doll of Demise, and we discussed how it may be the only retrain of a card that doesn't exist irl. We were just referring to how the OG Doll never got printed in any form since Malice is technically a different monster.
21:31 I mean Revolver not only had Mirror Force and Magic Cylinder, he had _support_ for them. Mirror force had appeared the least in Zexal and Arc-V and then here comes the rival character Revolver with freaking Mirror Force _Launcher_
Too bad that in spite of being the main rival, he barely even dueled in VRAINS and Mirror Force only appeared one more time than Zexal (not counting the post-series non-canon specials)...
The decks here I'd like to see get printed are Ninjas (but only the effect monsters and the kite), Cats, Doll Parts, Dark Mummy, Motor Worms, Maiden in Love, and Armor.
23:30 that’s why I created a brand new type of card based around judgment arrows called Link pendulum monsters where they have links that point up whether it’s 1, 2 or 3 arrows so if you managed to get them in the pendulum zone since they moved the Pendulum Zones to the back rows of the ends of the spell & trap card zones, this is a perfect way to summon out more monsters from the extra deck, whether they are Link monsters or Pendulum monsters! Also, if you have a Pendulum scale, that’s between zero and nine, you’ll be able to summon the special link pendulum monsters depending on what link pendulum card are face up in the extra deck!
Dude, Armatos Legio is the archetype everyone wants bc its the most fleshed out in modern ygo anime besides Hydradrive but i tested Hydradrive on Edopro and its not just good like they have one main deck monster to normal summon and if you dont start with it you can pass turn. Armatos Legio aint great either but it has a game plan, cool cards and there are enough cards for this archetype to build a deck without mixing it with another deck.
Armatos Legio is definitely going on Volume 2. We were discussing with of the 2 Judgment Arrow archetypes was going on this list when making it and Hydradrive won simply because we suggested it first, but we already started planning out our thoughts for Armatos Legio.

8:43 Strike Ninja started out as a Dungeon Dice Monster who wasn't released until three years later (the year after Duke used him in Duel Monsters) though, _Armed_ Ninja was the old staple in the card game, being the spell card equivalent of Trap Master and released as early as Legend of Blue-Eyes White Dragon, the first TCG set (but _not_ the first OCG set). Also Armed Ninja even appeared in the anime before Strike Ninja as part of the Legendary Heroes arc.
37:39 principug doesn’t even work with Rafael’s guardians. Most of them can be normal summoned (if the right card is out). This guy supports Gate Guardian and Voiceless Voice (Skull Guardian) more than it does Rafael’s stuff
i wish rafael's deck got a boost.
We were specifically thinking of Eatos and Dreadscythe since they have that clause. It's not much, but it's the smallest crumb of support for some of his Guardians.
I wouldn't mind some of Joey's luck cards too. I know they're gimmicky, nobody's gonna play cards where you have to let Lady Luck take the wheel, but the point of gimmicks is that they're silly fun to use.
How about the opposite lesser known anime archetypes ranked
I always liked the ancient deck Arthur Hawkins used
Here's my take on the Armor Cards: Once you have all pieces assembled, two things happen:
- They become untargetable by attacks (and maybe spell / traps as well)
- You can only attack with one piece per turn, that piece gets attack equal to your Life Points until the end of the turn / the start of your next turn
Basically, once you have the armor, YOU become the boss monster instead, and the individual effects of the pieces could be altered to facilitate extra protection / bonus effects like effect damage protection or piercing attack
The "armor" deck could actually be really interesting as a sort of stall/burn continuous spell deck based on making the duelist effectively a monster, where the pieces that successfully hit the board are almost impossible to remove *by either player* making your decision of how to build your armor extremely important, and they provide passive benefits that make you harder to kill and allow you (the duelist) to attack via a hybrid target destruction/burn damage effect. Like one makes it so that you take X less damage (percent or flat, both have up and downsides), one lets you destroy monsters or - if no valid monster target exists - deal burn damage to your opponent (something like "activate this effect; target and destroy one opponent monster. If you cannot, your opponent takes X damage."), one lets you spam-negate things (whether 1/turn or as long as you can pay a cost), etc. etc.
I think the key to having it be balanced is to either have each variant have an incredibly specific niche that it handles and have 10+ niches so that you have to choose what niches you need filled in this particular duel and maybe settle for what you have available instead of waiting for the exact card you want, OR the cards are broader but weaker and you're expected to play multiple copies of one of the parts to bulk up that particular set of effects. Taking the "damage reduction" I touched on earlier to demonstrate the difference and using random numbers cuz I'm not balancing the cards I'm giving an example to give the gist, you could have either a pair of cards - "reduce battle damage taken by 2000" and "reduce effect damage taken by 2000" - or one card that has "reduce all instances of damage taken by 1000". Same total effect for two card slots, but one expects you to pick and choose which damage type is more concerning while the other expects you to play extra copies if you're THAT concerned about getting hit.
I loved playing Cats using Rex Goodwin, spamming menacing One-liners while playing adorable fluffy kitty.
I am right there with you, with the Armor and the Hydradrives... we needs them. I would also love the roman inspired archetype that the Light ignis used _can't remember names_ or Riley's C/C/C archetype granted that relies too heavily on your opponents playing specific things based off of anime design, but if you tweaked it to allow for the tokens to be used as the materials no matter what then I think it would be fixed.
YES!!!! The armor! I've been wanting to see that for years!!!! It's so cool. I know it would be hard to balance, but they balanced Six Sams so they can balance that. Bring it out!!!
Banger vid guys, I’d love to see Lightning’s deck.
Also I still don’t get the pug thing, how it relates to guardians I cannot hazard a guess.
Thank you! The pug supports Guardian monsters that can't be normal summoned/set, which are restrictions on the 2 Guardian bosses, Eatos and Dreadscythe, so they can technically be helped by the pug. It's not good support for the whole archetype, but it was the last crumb of support some of Raphael's Guardians were related to.
@@MrTopTenList I more so mean how does a pug connect to any of that?
25:05 I actually came up with an equip card involving the magma diver plugsuit from evangelion that basically protects the equipped monster from all fire attribute monsters effects so I’m totally on board with having an archetype being able to be immune to monsters of certain attributes
I would want to see Bonaparte's Toy Army cards.
How they could work:
Cook Pals - play into the burn traps, like an overly spicy meal, the more spices added to the pot (more traps in the graveyard or under food cemetery) the damage is dealt. For example; "Inflict 300 damage to your opponent, double this damage for every "Cookpal" card with a different name underneath "Food Cemetary""
Meklord - Add support that targets all extra deck monsters. A line of Meklord for Fusion, XYZ, Link, and the originals for Synchro
Stunt Ninjas - Magnum is a stunt performer, so have these card based off famous stunt actors (For example, Jackie Chan) Their effects could play into the idea of them being a stunt team. Idea for an archetypal effect; "Once per turn, you can banish this monster until the end phase and special summon one "Stunt Ninja" Synchro monster from your extra deck with the same attribute and level as this monster. When this card is special summed from the banish zone, return all monsters to the extra with the same level/rank/link as this monster." Basically creating an archetype that can synchro summon with just one monster.
Doll Chimera - Similar to Skull Servant decks, only give it the clause to banish doll monsters from the graveyard to negate effects
Dark Mummy - Field and hand control with the virus traps, plus have the Dark Mummy monsters inflict burn damage for every card sent to the graveyard due to the effect of a virus trap. For example, Crush Card Virus gives the opponent the choice of sending 3 monsters from their deck to the graveyard, an effect that helps the opponent in the modern game. If you had 2 monsters who inflicted 500 damage for each card sent, then the opponent needs to be willing to spend 3000 lifepoints to stack their graveyard. This would also make up for the Dark Mummy monsters low attack stat.
Hydradrive - Shown off really well in the anime. It provides great field control and lets you have the advantage over any opponent who predominately uses only one attribute if their deck.
Maden in Love - Cover the monster's low attack with an effect that saves you from OTK. A spell with the effect "As long as this card remains face up on the field, your life points cannot be reduced lower than 100 with battles involving "Maden in Love."" And another spell card that reads, "As long as this card and Maden in Love are face up on the field, your opponent must attack Maden in Love with their highest Attack point monster at the start of the battle phase." These clauses save the owner from being OTK'd, and gives them control of the opponent's strongest monster to use against them next turn. Pair this with Dark Door and you've got a mean combo.
Alchemy Beasts - Good field spam and can play into cards like Gren Maju really well. Also, similar to Hydradrive, it helps you control the field based on the attributes of the opponent's deck.
Armor - The anime showcased it perfectly. Good field spam. Lot's of negates. Gives you the excuse to literally punch your opponent in the face. What's not to love?
37:30 - I actually came up with an idea for how to make Guardians playable, while giving some love to that most neglected method, Ritual.
Simply make the Guardians Ritual monsters, with their signature Equips instead being the corresponding Ritual Spells. Have them be able to Ritual Summon the given monster from hand or gy and then equip themselves as the equip spells once that happens. Still needs a bit more fleshing out, probably in the realm of non-specific Ritual Summon effects and conditions for being able to use the 'Ritual Spells' as regular Equips without the RS to increase their flexibility, but I feel pretty confident about this.
Alchemy Beast would be so interesting as its whole archtype based around spell cards bringing out monsters and attacking directly...so cool. Fits my style of play nicely.
I'm surprised the Doll Part cards haven't been printed yet. They were in a voting contest of cards to be printed and were in the top 5. That was the contest Fossils won and were printed. But I really want the Cookpal, Doll Part, Spice/Curry, and Maiden In Love cards printed! They can update their effects, but if they were a normal monster in the anime they need to stay that way!
Fossils winning does make sense since Jim was the only major protagonist from season 3 not to have his cards printed at the time, and he definitely more deserving than a one-off villain, but I really would've liked another poll that gave Doll Parts a chance.
@MrTopTenList It would be amazing if they brought back voting for archetypes to be printed. An entire set that's just the top 5/10 archetypes we want printed!🤞
Not gonna lie, I got super hyped at the Doll Parts section. I _adore_ the Princess Cologne pseudo-archetype and would love to be able to expand their gameplan in new directions while maintaining aesthetic similarity.
And as a fan of Madolches, Nemleria, Nouvelles, _and_ Suships, I agree that food-themed archetypes are always fun.
For other anime-only archetypes... Well, most of them have already been made in some capacity or another (though a lot of them could certainly do with retrains by this point), but one of the first that comes to mind is the Yomi archetype; the one used by the Crimson Devil's Familiar, who Jack dueled to gain his Red Nova Dragon. It was kind of a... stall-burn strategy, based around repeatedly destroying your own monsters to inflict burn damage and prevent your opponent from attacking. Being DARK Fiends with 0/0 stats, I feel like they could make for some interesting Yubel or Unchained hybrids with a bit of tweaking, though realistically speaking I imagine they'd be more likely to be adjusted to support Red Dragon Archfiend or Earthbound Immortal decks instead.
It was a good concept since I never noticed how both dolls utilized normal counterparts
For me, I wish Judgement Arrows and Gatling Orge got officially printed. But I also hope the Fairy Tail archetype gets fully grown. The Fairy Tails are a neat concept and having their own archetype with more spells and add traps and extra deck monsters for them could make the archetype very appealing and fun.
34:10 Pretty sure MBT has been around for a while.
I think the Alchemy cards have the potential to be some of the most interesting archetype cards out there, just going off of what would happen if you were to fuse a certain number of elements together and what that would create IRL it would make for an interesting kind of deck where sometimes you'd want copies of one monster more than the other which runs the risk of someone ruining your whole plan but the counter payoff is that you end up with a stronger monster or a monster that is statistically weaker but has a really strong ability that may be bored wipes or banishes every monster from the graveyards and gets points from the banished
Vira is one of the best filler episode characters in all of YGO imo because she plays cards from DM and maybe very very early GX that were never really seen much if at all, and apparently does so to decent effect even if she didn't win
So I actually been working on custom card re-trains of 2 of the archetypes mentioned in this video: Jean Claude's ninja (which I named Ninja Army since they seem to like to be summoned in large numbers like an army) and the Alchemy Beast.
Ninja Army: [Main play style spam the field with smaller ninja warriors and either play into the 3 main deck Ninja Army Masters or Go into the Extra Deck Ninja Army Shadows] I kept their swarming, but limited to the Ninja Army cards, gave Soldier and Kunoichi effects, 5 more main deck monster including 3 Tuners, and 2 lvl-5, 5 different Synchros (The Synchros having a Flood Gate effect), and lastly the few spell & traps i designed (6 in total) effects vary depending on how many Ninja Army you control.
Alchemy Beast: [Main play style still revolve direct battle and banishing, while adding additional fire power with new fusion monsters, locking out counter attacks outside the battle phase, and giving additional benefits for banishing cards] I added a fusion effect to Chaos Distill, made 5 more alchemy beast and spells to go with them, turned the process cards into continuous spell (some effects scaled back, and others with new effects entirely), created 8 fusion monsters (Alchemic Chimeras), made a field spell, and lastly made a bunch of Battle Lock related spells & traps for extra protection/advantage.
They also havnt released Rebeccas dragons.

Reira's C/C archetype was absolutely one of the coolest anime-onlys. I don't even care that it would only ever be rogue at best, I want the deck that just copies elements of opponents' monsters to access a cool extra deck toolbox.
11:42 Ah yes, the frog that's actually a toad.
With the Maiden in Love card add a extra deck monster with a very high attack and effect that it can only be summed if a monster with a “Maiden Counter” on it is removed from the field, then sacrifice the Maiden in Love to summon it. And call it “Widowed Maiden”
