So, I decided to rework this list with the new rules from the Best Female Protagonist video (Duel Score is now -1 point for each loss, not 0). I did this with the Best Protagonist video as well; however, the final results for this video don't actually change. I'm still going to post the updated scores because I already did the work.
The new duel scores are as follows:
1st. Jack Atlas: 509 (Minus 7 points from 516)
2nd. Chazz Princeton: 221 (Minus 12 points from 233)
3rd. Reginald Kastle: 69 (Minus 6 points from 75)
4th. Seto Kaiba: 56 (Minus 5 points from 61)
5th. Declan Akaba: 21 (Minus 3 points from 24)
6th. Ryoken Kogami: 18 (Minus 3 points from 21)
As I stated before, this does not change the final scores from what they were in the video, since the updated scoring doesn't even have an affect on the duel scores for the rivals. I had actually expected some change, but the losses were just too few. Though I guess you could make 69 jokes about Shark's new duel score.
Honestly, I think this new way of ranking duel scores is quite fair. The -1 for loses actually does punish those who duel more and lose more but quite a bit, whilst not being too harsh on those with less duels but less losses.
Yeah, he said the 0 "punished characters with lots of duels and lots of losses", but it basically just made those duels not count. I think he should divide the characters total points by their total possible points so it's out of 100%, and then give a curve for number of duels, maybe add 0.1 points for each duel (I would personally use square root to kinda balance out fodder matches), so willingness to duel still plays a factor but wouldn't give an absurd advantage
That's a little better
@@shadowpyre I fully agree with this update.
Shark blames Merag and Durbe
Chaz was stat grinding at north academy, he knew what he was doing.
and by defeating all of obelisk dorm (twice), however that feat was not mentioned in this video
Then there's Jackie with 90 more duels.
he chazed up his stats
He needed to make sure he was the best and also it was a hazing ritual at North Academy. He had no choice there. He had a ton of growing to do after losing to Jaden and Sebastion. There's nothing wrong with making sure you are the best by challenging everyone you see. I do it all the time in Dynasty warriors style games. If I see even one dot, I'm going out of my way to fight them and see if I'm the best!
And Kaiba was grinding too against NPC's with literally Obelisk. 🌚
Seto: as president of Kaiba Corp I declare this invalid !
Lmao 😂
Jack:Bullshit!
JACK ATLAS: Fool! You dare defy the king?
Screw the stats I have money!
@@LordTyph kaiba: what is a king to a god
Kaiba broke through dimensions and into the afterlife just to get the salty run back with Atem. He has to be the best rival.
His rivalry whith Yugi is the best in all of Anime
I totally agree.
@DeadMemes NeedToStayDead he is striving to be the best but Kaiba just want to surpass Yugi and i like Yugioh more so maybe thats my bs
that was manga kaiba, not anime kaiba
@DeadMemes NeedToStayDead thats a whole different story😂
Fun fact: Jack's entire loss record comes from turbo duels.
🤔
N since the others dont turbo duel
We can just take those losses n put em in the bin
Fun fact: Yusei's entire loss record comes from standing duels. (opposite of Jack)
Euclidean Space He one once in a standing duel against Leo
Euclidean Space cough Kalin
@@Deathmare235 that was a dnf not a lost
These Statistics videos should become a recurring video series! Like 1 that I would watch is the Best Sidekicks!
And I do want to see more armed dragon and red archfiend dragon and more sharks cards and raiji cards to
The title will be "Statistically The Best Yu-bro"
Don’t you mean best friend
What would be awesome is a statistics video on all the girl protagonists.
So, we're choosing from:
Joey
Syrus
Crow
Bronk I guess?
IDK

Dude even if chazz doesnt win he had the best Catch phrase: "CHAZZ IT UP CHAZZ IT UP"
LONG LIVE THE CHAZZ!!!
CHAZ IT UP BOIIII
MANJOUME SANDA!
And when he does, the opponent goes bye bye
Chaz it up hell yeah
Yugi: Kaiba you won't survive this!
Kaiba: Screw living I've got money!
SCREW THE RULES I HAVE MONEY!!!!!

Chazz defeated 50 consecutive Duellists in North Academy, beat his siblings using a deck with 500ATK monsters or less, whiped the Society of light after regaining his memories and beat Aster in season 4! Chazz it up!
1
10
100
1000
THUNDER THUNDER MANJOUME THUNDER!
God damn he beat Aster? I've never been able to watch season 4, that's kinda cracked
CHAZZ IT UP!!! CHAZZ IT UP!!! CHAZZ IT UUUUPP!!!!!!!
Chazz also wiped the floor of the entirety of Obelisk dorm to start the White dorm. He literally wiped them twice over. Once to get them in, once to get them out.
Don’t forget, Chazz beat those 50 consecutive duelists with a mismatched deck of 40 cards he randomly picked up
How about a 3rd Episode - Statistically The Best Main Female Companion, what do we think?
DO IT! :)
Yup
TGS Anime i expect us to be severely underwhelmed in contrast to the protagonists and even the rivals
The best best friends duelist
Yeah I like that idea!
Kaiba: *You're a third rate duelist with a fourth rate deck.*
Me: *Hey at least i'm third rate 😂*
*lolololol get rekt*
He only brings this up, if he wins the duel. So your comebackline would never work ;)
"You're a fourth rate rival."
Me:*plays sacred beasts* F$#?! YOU KAIBA
I mean if Kaiba called me third rate I take it as a compliment.
Small Error in the video. Revolvers Win Ratio is 66.67%
Luckily it doesn’t effect the overall score but thought I’d amend the mistake here
Mathematical tip:
You are literally NOT punishing people for lots of duels with lots of losses
You may be aware of the math test like a special test people can be in if they are really good at their school. It's *necessary* to give negative points for mistakes or else you can just do whatever you like with no punishment.
So yeah your counting method already has problems. Your duel score is just broken and not good.
It makes sense to give 0 points in a tournament because there you necessarly need them to go onwards.
Every system still values a loss as a negative performence and hence substracts points.
Maybe you will correct this but I don't know. You would need to redo a lot of math. Maybe someone told you before.
Anyways yeah you actually didn't do what you think you did and said ypu did. Which is why having many duels in your system is like the cheapest and best thing possible. Not win ratio. Not anything else. You have 2 categories dedicated to number of games and both of them only truely focus on "get a lot of games together and win a good amount."
Welp that's unfortunate.
And this isn't even an opinion this a mathematical flaw in your system.
Oh and best systems are systems like chess. You may want to look them up. No not the tournament system but the ranking system.
I think offline duels should not be counted
@@lizardbyheart2817 So true. At least he should have devided the duel score by the number of duels. That way draws would actually be affecting the ranking and a lot of losses would be punished (sort of).
@@Just1Pho yes agreed that is also a good idea. Basically shows the effectiveness or points won oer duel as you suggested :)
revovler loses four times i believe not including his ties 3/4 were due to playmakers and soulburner ass pulls
the other one is cause lightning forced his hand
I remember chazz had that handicapped duel when he dueled 10 guys all at once and still won that was pretty beast chazz it up chazz it up chazz it up!!!!
@Devil Kazuya Dude would have legit won against Jaden in the final season and even defeated Aster who beat Jaden, who also beat Zane.
Chazz. It. Up.
Chazz it up CHAZZ IT UP
CHAZZ IT UP CHAZZ IT UP CHAZZ IT UP!!!!! 💪🏾🗣️💪🏾🗣️💪🏾🗣️
Those dudes must have had to pretty terrible decks lol.
@@depressedcorn37 To clarify, the only reason he lost to Jaden in the final season is that he was instructed to throw the duel, and also he beat Aster Phoenix even after Aster got his super mega ultra ace boss monster back.
Kaiba visited the AFTERLIFE for that salty run back, you dont get more rival than that.
Either that or he made a time machine for it which is equally salty and insane.
Nah. Afterlife is a new realm of a run back. Like really really freaking salty.
@@UnifiedEntity I think the term you're looking for is transcendent saltiness and yes, it's describes kaiba to a T
Yuma did have a final duel against Kite.
He just lost
Kite was the main rival ffs
Not really a final duel since they never had s game that decided whose the best at their prime. Yuma gets stronger throughout the series and probably would have won at the end of season 4. Guess what kite dies.
Kite also gets a new dragon
You could always say that kite should have numeron dragon since he unlocked it
Kite was totally the main rival. An actual challenge for Astral
For anyone wondering, Jack Atlas has an onscreen win rate of 86.1 % in 5Ds.
Still very impressive.
The Master of Faster, the Sultan of Speed deserves to be number one to me. He's always been my favorite rival.
Hell yeah.
People literally unsubbing for such idiotic reasons is just....
Oof
No one unsubbing for idiotic reasons.. I think.. it's all in your head.. seriously
@@xavierprince4811 Van is just referring to the posts i showed from a guy on Twitter, he said he was going to Unsub from me because Yusaku should of had a 100% win rate on my last video. 😅 Which is quite a petty thing to unsub over lol
@@TGSAnime well you got my sub so he can go be pretty somewhere else
TGS Anime I see haha.. my bad hahaha!
That's just stupid. Talk about your over zealous fan boy
When you realize that jack was the rival for two protagonists
M- God damn really? Please elaborate, I’ve only watched season one of 5ds and zexal so had no idea...
It sucks how he never duelled crow
Archie Campbell in arc v jack was more of a rival than Declan
Whoa that’s cool that they made him a reoccurring character
@@reepi6250 Well, yes and no. 5D's Jack is somewhat different partially because Yusei was in his life along with everyone else. Arc-V Jack is somewhat different because Yusei wasn't really ever apart of his life, and Crow doesn't like him. Also it's generally accepted that 5D's Jack is a better duelist
While *THE CHAZZ* has a lot of duels in this, you still forgot to mention that in season 2 he defeated basically the ENTIRE obelisk dorm (the best students in duel acadmey) to convert them to the society of light, then after he got turned back because of jaden, he then did it AGAIN and went on to win the GX tournament.
Ah yes, remember when Reiji essentially did a 1v20 in the synchro dimension?
You're supposed to refer to JACK as JACK ATLAS. In all caps.
Exactly
THE MASTER OF FASTER
@@g3mkn1ght60 I never thought I would say this but the new dub is even worse than the 4kids one
There only one king, and that's him
@@aliastheabnormal new dub?
Jack was so good he was the rival for two series, Yusei and Yuya.
Yep . 😂
I consider Arc-V to be a lie, it never happened, they butchered Jack in that series because main character plot armor is a thing, also the duel against zarc was bs, it was filler, everyone doing stuff even though we know they're going to lose, it was a pity to watch
KKurro Cas he beat both once too
@@ganjalfilverde7064 That's because the Jack in arc V isn't the Jack in 5Ds
@@ganjalfilverde7064 What do you mean it was filler? Zarc is the MAIN ANTAGONIST! How was the only duel the villain had filler?
We gotta all admit 5ds has the most skill duelest period
Technically Zarc is the best duelist out of all, he litteraly flexed on top rated duelists by beating two at a time and only using one summoning method on each two and he beat a huge protagonist using that same guys cards, not to mention how he even beat Jack with a litteral extra deck boost even Crow in fact
@@lecherousfish can Atem litteraly duel the best duelists in his universe 2 by 2 and only lose against 1, srsly, yugi needs luck but Zarc is a beast who hardly needs any luck, I've tested his deck out myself with some of the unseen cards on ygo pro and his deck broken af and he used it in a way that took me 7 duels just to acquire
I’m watching 5d’s right now and I don’t find much skill in the duelists. Yusei is like if I draw a trap card I can activate it then draws a trap card. How convenient. I don’t think 5ds duelist are anymore skilled than other series duelists.
Jean Michel Teub so, the same thing that applies to pretty much every other character, convenience?
and then theres zexal........
we wont talk about that
Nobody:
Kaiba: Suicide is badass

@@Zerato lmao
Sidekicks: Joey, Syrus, etc.
Leading Ladies: Mai, Alexis, etc.
Isn't Téa Gardner
/Anzu Mazaki the leading lady for the first series? (OK. Apparently Téa Gardner
/Anzu Mazaki had only 3 duels in the entire series and won all of them, so maybe having Mai there instead is a better choice.)
Connor Bredall Exactly what I was thinking.
Tèa ftw! undefeated champ!
Connor Bredall what about Tori?
@@Deathmare235 Tori only dueled once with Katie vs Yuma and Girag, and she lost. She dueled other times off camera, but
I don't remember if she won those off-camera duels, btw.
Jack is really incredible. He was a weasel and selfish for sure but he did also come from nothing to get where he was. He was also never evil about what he did. Also, his catchphrase was awesome
Indeed
All that's missing is the 3rd main duelist and "the girl"
Yeah I was thinking of the Best Friend character but they kinda don't exist after 5Ds. Maybe something like Joey, Aster or Syrus, Crow, Kaito, and... No idea for Arc V. Shun? The Fluffal or Superheavy Samurai guy? Yuzu maybe? White, Black, or Purple Yuya? Crow again???
What about the villain? Maybe Marik, Darkness, Z-ONE, etc?
@@ray_0frain villains barely duel so they all either have 0% to 50% win ratios unless they Dueled the entire time
@@MegaMachiOnline Oh I didn't think about that...
@@wyomingptt Not sure about the ones between 5D's and Vrains, but I think Vrains would have to be Takeru Homura, aka Soulburner. While yes, he wasn't there since the beginning, but when he did showed up, he became pretty much a good buddy to Yusaku real quick. Would say Ai, but we know what happens to him in season 3.
Best Third Trio Character:
Joey
Syrus
Crow
Kite (Again)
Gongenzaka
Soulburner

JACK ATLAS
If jack was watching this he would say "THAT'S WHY IM THE KING" though he probably wouldn't actually say that seeing how he lost his title to yuesi
I think we can all agree the stats don't do the characters ANY justice XD
Will you do a video on the best "Joeys" statistically?
All hail Starscream!
"Screw the Stats i have money"
I'm really impressed with Jack Atlas' stats. He is my favorite rival character, and it felt like he had a sturdier appearance than even Seto Kaiba. Jack didn't seem to use his money as much as Kaiba did, and that really resonates with me. Prove you're a rival with your own power, not with money. I feel like Kaiba was too showy.
What about brainpower
Gx, Dm and kite stans need to get off the KING.
That's facts
@@ryogaiisharkiikamishiroiin2682 Chazz it up
The trash talk in a match between Kaiba and Jack would be legendary! Also totally agree with you!
I personally like Varis because I find it interesting how he pushes his opponents to their limits. To me it’s like he’s trying to help his opponent become stronger by giving them extremely tough challenges to face. He was also the first person on screen to make an extra link and that alone is really hard to beat. And although he still lost that duel, I also just like the Duelists that are excellent strategists and have a really cool and fun deck.
A lot of people can be a millionaire, A lot of people can be a king. Hell some people can be an emperor But there will always gonna be one Chazz. Chazz It Up Chazz It Up Chazz It Up!
Maybe I lost, but I'm still the Chazz
@Devil Kazuya Chazz actually close on defeating Jaden in Season 4. If only he didn't get blackmail he will definitely win. Also, keep in mind that Zane lose to Aster Phoenix and Aster didn't even use his real deck when he defeat Zane. SO who actually capable of defeating Aster? There is 4 duelist. Sartorius, Jaden, Adrian and guess who's the last duelist? It's Chazz. So no Zane probably lose when he duel the current Chazz.
Jack for sure? This is my prediction before watching.
Edit: Whoop.
Is that a fake spoiler? 😂
I thought the exact same thing like yea the king finna stomp these chumps 😂
the favorite part about the thunder is that he's literally a one man army. He challenges fools in droves and beats them all at the same time. How freakin badass is that?
Declan’s multiple duelist thing was when he beat down an entire room of sector security when they attacked the high council
We know that *The Chazz* despite being most dashing of all of them still sucks as a rival.
Crimson Hero he could've beat jaden but he was deleted by the only thing stronger than him
The plot
Chazz was a good duelist, it's just that Jaden was better.
@@cyberend1863 no legit he could have beat Jaden at the end of the series bit threw the game as that's what the producers for the pro duelist circuit wanted.
He was also gonna lose his other duel but he went fuck it and tried
@@cyberend1863 Chad is trash, be fair, he is the same as that character in Arc V who was playing some pendulum abyssal actors. Not comparable to Zane, or Kaiba nor Jack
Chazz is the top duelist in north academy and won the gx tournament by beating everyone in the blue dorm and was good enough to be a pro duelist. Y’all just sleeping on him
Favourite- Revolver.
Duelist- Reiji.
Development- Jack.
Rival- Shark or Nasch.
I gotta say, even though i kinda hated zexal (mainly Yuma), i liked shark. I also liked Kite and Astral, but just not Yuma
for me the same but Kaiba instead of Revolver. Good point btw. Statistics are fun and can start discussions, without that use they would be total trash
You missed Chazz in development
@CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES !!!
Agreed Yuma is probably my least favorite YuGiOh MC so far in terms of design and personality he’s just alright to me
In fact he’s the main reason I didn’t watch ZeXal when it originally aired
Then finally in 2018 I decided to give it another chance as I wanted to watch/rewatch all the YuGiOh series for the 20th anniversary
I ended up liking ZeXal in general but still wasn’t a big fan of Yuma in the end
I thinks it’s fair to point out that some of jacks duels were rigged for him without his knowledge
hockeycrafter608 that’s fair but from what I understand, the vast majority of his duels in that list game from during the time skip at the end of the series, before he fueled Yusei at the end... but also fun fact- Jack never lost a duel in the manga 🤷🏻♂️ so I mean he’s number 1 based on either canon 🤣
@@quickclutch332 He wouldve lost to Yusei if he didnt jump for his friend in their first battle in the manga
Actually in the mangas true final chapters he did lose to Yusei
Not on his way to the job, maybe during the fortune 500
Revolver wins on style points alone, gun dragons are awesome
Despite not having made it so high on the list, the rival that I would consider my favourite is Akaba Reiji. I recently watched some of his duels and really loved how he displayed himself being able to manipulate so easily the multiple summoning techniques. Great video Sam! I find fascinating the use of a method (be it accurate or not) for comparing characters across the various series, keep it up!
I think offscreen duels shouldn't count TBH: since in cases like Jack Atlas, getting like over 100 duels because of offscreen shinanigans is.. a bit much. It doesn't accurately show us the dueles they actually dueled against somewhat relevant people.
I just think it favors offscreen duels way too much, maybe add some more catagorys if you can think of any (Its 3 AM I'd try but ma brain.)
Agreed. I'd be interested in videos dealing with only on-screen wins, and maybe breaking rating each win or loss on a scale (close wins and losses count less than bigger ones.) But I suppose that could introduce some bias...
Yes this is all duels. However, an onscreen duel count would be interesting
Yeah but think about it this way, how many duels have protagonists had that were against random bums. Protagonists get that shield to win against random of the week, while rivals are made to be beaten. So counting all their "bum fights" beforehand is fair.
Chazz should have alot more though due to the GX tournament and the whole society of light thing. He only counted like 1/3 AT MOST of Chazz's offscreen duels.
That would automatically boost up yuma’s win/loss ratio.
The correct answer is: who has the biggest ego?
Answer: we all know who it is, as it sniffs his 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragons

After watching: I gotta kick my opinion into overdrive...
"COMING THROUGH, COMING THROUGH, COMING THROUGH NOW

Uhmmmmm, revolver had a win ratio of 66.6% not 50. He won twice as many duels as he lost but he won 6/9, in other words 66.6 recurring%

@@AceTrainerLupi I was really confused when he said 50%, I was like wait, can I do maths?
Right? I thought so as well

Number 32: Shark Drake
Vypazcute yeah but he also had N101 Silent Honor Dark.
@@cirrocumulus1948 welp that would've been his skills xD
Yugioh 101
Well shark did lose number 17 leviathan dragon to yuma
Griffin Gower That’s true
Devil Kazuya Shark has a better deck than joey and besides tbh he was yugi’s friend and all he did was go YUGIOOOOHHH and atem just did all the work, plus it’s not like some time wizard bull could defeat don thousand because it’s an ass pull that only worked in that series if he tried to use it it would be unaffected because of it’s effect. The only good characters in that series were Bakura, Marik and Kaiba. Even yuya could beat that loser.
For Reiji’s unspecified wins he beat 25+ members of sector security all at once in Arc V episode 95. Pretty impressive and would definitely bring up his score, though the exact amount would be hard to quantify since we aren’t shown the exact number of people he’s dueling.
With Revolver having 6 w and 3 Ls shouldn’t he have a 66.6% w/l ratio since he won 2/3 of the time, since you discount draws and dnfs
He kinda explained it in the vid but I'll try and help, when he's doing the percentage for the duels he's only calculating the wins v losses. The number of total duels as well as the draws and DNF's are not taken into consideration for the final calculation. Hope this helps.
Jonathan Blake yeah. That’s what I’m saying. 6 w and 3 L doesnt equate to 50% w/l ratio. You’d need an equal amount of w and l to have a 50% w/l ratio, but this is obviously not the case here
@@literallynoone9923 yeah i think he did his maths wrong there and with kaiba he won 20 lost 8 so how does the math make it 75% its actually 80%
@@Lizard4upgrade
He counts draws and dnfs as loses what the hell(have not watched the vid)
ye kinda thought the same tho... :D
To this day, I really can't tell if Jaden's rival was Chazz, Zane or Aster. He wanted to surpass Zane as the top student. He had to get a new deck to defeat Aster after that loss. And Chazz was always around to challenge Jaden to a duel, but it looked like he didn't really care after throwing away that Obelisk uniform. It looked like Jaden had that bond with all of them.
It's more about the Rival's view of the protag as well as their skill in relation to them. Vegeta is still Goku's rival even after Jiren and Broly. Sasuke is still Naruto's rival even after Gaara and Neji.
Despite Astor and Zane, both respecting Jaden, neither had a constant desire to surpass him
@@Malthizar Chazz didn't have the desire either. His biggest and final duel was against Aster, when he proved himself worthy of being a pro duelist. He didn't really care about Jaden after the first season. I would agree that he was Jaden's main rival if he was like his counterpart in the manga. But he's not passionate enough about beating him in the anime. They don't have that Yugi-Kaiba relationship in the tv series. Chazz is more of a snobby Joey in the anime.
@@kaossilator8545 he "beat" jaden in the same episode he was so upset they had him throw
Declan Akaba has an infinite loop against a guy in the synchro dimension who kept respawning and dueling him. It counted as multiple people coming in late to the duel. That would mean he has infinite wins, infinite duels, and an infinite win/loss ratio.
yeah but thats bs so itll count as 1 also the win loss ratio would be 100%
@@bigbang8739it wouldn't be 100%. It would be more like 99.99999%
Unique duels would have been an interesting addition, rewarding dueling lots of different opponents and punishing only dueling the same people
I still can't get over the fact that Kite is not the main rival :(
I agree with you, Creech
He is, imho.
People reaaally dont get the "statistical" part of this, my god
@DJ Akademiks Supreme Hoodie im guessing they think fish is wet when its in the water.
Its moreso that it shouldn't be fair that a throwaway line can change a stat from 50% to 98%.
@@Malthizar I mean. You have to look at everything. If they wanted to win the duel and didn't care about the outcome they would. That's why some of them did better than others.
@@deathknight133 I mean the inclusions of off screen duels mucks with the stats. If a character says "Oh wow, that's Rex Raptor. He's beaten over 1000 Duelist!" That same Rex Raptor, who has lost every on screen duel, shouldn't have a 99.9% win rate
@@Malthizar off screen duels should count. Tbh if you look a lot of the Mcs or SCs most of them had children/flashback duels. Even if one did 100 plus off screen duels. Good for them. Just means they did more to prove something lol
To be fair to Declan Akaba, he had dozens and dozens of off screen wins, probably hundreds most of them at the same time, and one of his wins was a perma lock that could never be won by his opponent, so by far the most impressive in my opinion
...there can only be one winner, and you're saying this in his voice, let's go!
I really don't like giving the characters L when they were clearly going to win, but something unethical (like having to kill Mokuba) stops them from finishing it. They are heroes if the "went through with it" then they would no longer be protagonists . I really wish that these were under DNFs, saying they are losses rubs me the wrong way :(
Sorry that quickly turned into a mini rant. Love the rest of everything in this video series. Keep killing it!
The issue with not counting them as losses is that it can potentially get murky. Ex. Yes, Yugi losing to suicidal Kaiba would be agreed to fall under DNF, but would Yugi losing to Rebecca? How about Yugi losing to Pegasus? In both of these duels, a case can be made for why they should be considered DNFs or normal losses
I understand your main point and I overall agree with you, but just so you know for future your discussions, protagonist doesn't actually mean being a hero. Don't feel bad though, this is a common misconception caused by the fact that most protagonists are what people usually consider to be heroes. However, protagonists are simply the main characters and focal point of a story. (And antagonists are any characters that are opposing the protagonists.) So protagonists can be heroes and/or villains. That applies with antagonists as well. One of the best examples for this would be Death Note. Characters can also switch between the two throughout a series. The rivals in Yugioh started out as antagonists and then they became protagonists themselves by allying with the current protagonists of the series.
Please note I'm not trying to be a know it all or "grammar Nazis". Just trying to spread wisdom. "The more you know" kind of thing.
I mean this is just comparing their W/L ratios as duelists not protagonists. A loss is a loss even if the other person cheats.
"Better than yuma tsukumo." It doesnt take much to be better than yuma imo
I tried hard to watch Zexal but Yuma constantly making misplays and forgetting cards he plays just got old. I got up to Shark VS Quatro before getting bored
Yuma is easily the worst protagonist to me
I like yuma, he's like every new yugioh player, annoying and bad at the game, but that's the part i like, he becomes better gradually, he's not an instant expert
Did people forgotten about the episode after episode 20, or people just assumed Yuma is still a weak duelist even after Zexal is finished?
@@matts5164 Yuma still sucked at that point, Astral did all the work.
@@elin111 Yeah, keep in mind if Yuma had listened to Astral, he would have lost to Shark in the very first on-screen duel of the series, and yeah let's forget all the time Yuma won without Astral and whole of Zexal II :/
I know this is way too late to matter, but to clarify Akaba Reiji's duels, it was mentioned that he was the youngest person ever to become a professional duelist, and to do that he'd have to the low and mid tier qualifiers. To get into them you need a win percentage that's over fifty I think, then win the tournament, so you could add 36 wins at least from that. There was also the time he effectively wiped out a small army of sector security, and then their leader who used holograms which made an endless stream of duelists. He did lose those three, but to be fair, one was just plot convenience, one was against an immortal super duelist that basically ignored damage (still came the closest to winning).
Sorry, rambled a bit. Even with those three losses, I'd still count him way higher, Second at least.
1:57 😂 how truly mediocre, this person talks like the queen of England for gods sake, if anyone spoke like that in day to day life they’d never hear the end of it, he/she’s just trying to sound clever
They were mad salty.
Next Up: Statistically Best Side Characters or Statistically Best Female
Statistically the best yugioh Best friend of the main protanganist or the best girl of the main protagonist.
How would you quantify best girl in yugioh? Bust size? Fan service stats?
A little bit of Column A and a little bit of Column B.
Rally wins, hands down.
@@quasi-stellarcatastrophe4555 That's a side character not the main character.
Red that was a joke.
Jack Atlas literally my favorite rival and probably my favorite YuGiOh character throughout all of the YuGiOh series
Completely agree. My favorite character in Yugioh is Jack Atlas followed by Chazz Princeton. Quality video! :)
Who thinks he should also do all the joey wheeler esc charcters of all the series?.
Well, Syrus is the Joey of GX, and Crow can be one for 5ds, but I'm not too sure on Zexal or Arc-V. Soulburner for sure in VRAINS, but I can see an argument or two for Blue Angel/Girl/Maiden.
Definitely. Although I'm not too sure on who all the Joeys would be.
@@dudebladeX Bronk Stone seems kinda go-to for a best friend type character in Zexal if that's what we're aiming for.
@@dudebladeX zexal should have been shark and kite is the rival for zexal
@@dudebladeX for zexal is shark but he already did shark and for arc v idk
Seto Kaiba is still the greatest in my heart!
You should do the best friend character next like Joey and Cyrus and Crow
Your wish has been granted
I would like to see stats of every rival as how many wins/loses against each respective protagonist
HEY GUYS
TEA IS THE BEST CHARACTER IN YUGIOH BECAUSE SHE HAS 100% WINS IN TOTAL
Personally the one with Noah against Kaiba should count either as a Win or an DNF because kaiba's life points never hit zero in that duel the moment he was turned to stone Yugi took his place with his ammount of life points
I'm definitely biased but I loved Zane as a rival, he was always seen as this unstoppable duelist that Jaden has to overcome rather than someone on even footing or even worse than the protagonist. He forced Jaden to be better instead of being along for the ride.
These are really interesting and informative would love to see a villain video.
I am definitely happy to see Jack get this recognition. He’s my favorite 5D’s character and one of, if not my number 1, my favorite characters in all of Yu-Gi-Oh! I do think he had the advantage of being more than just a rival, but actually a real deuteragonist (secondary protagonist) for 5D’s
I thought he already was the second protagonist. Everytime Yusei got a new card, Jack was soon got something equal to it
Night Rise Yeah, that was what I was trying to get across
The Red Demon Noodle Arc cemented his status as one of the best
also, i alwasy saw Kite as Yuma's Rival rather than Shark.. Thanks for the Bonus ;)
For those wondering Declan Akaba was undefeated when he 1st met yuya.
Revolver still my favorite I wish he got more duels in season 3
Alayna Heart no
*Reads title*
Me: Jack wins
*After video*
Me: Called it
Plz do side characters or villains
Honestly Chazz isnt a rival to Jaden. He became a comedy act after the first season. Zane was more of Jaden's rival because he pushed Jaden to his limits and has never beaten Zane at all
Plus Zane's outfit is a total polar opposite to Kaiba's
Jonathan Camacho Zane respected jaden but he never had a desire to be better than jaden unlike Chazz that’s why. After season 1 they barely interact except for one duel in season 3 where Zane tried to get Jaden’s mind right
The “multiple duelists” one for Declan was probably referring to the time he dueled 50+ sector security officers at once in the Synchro arc and beat them all...that would prooooooobably affect his score just a bit 😂😂
Declan skill wise was a fucking monster as a duelist, probably the strongest rival in the series using the rules shown in the series
I think deklans multiple wins are mostly when he steamrolled through sector security in season 2
I like declan the most
He's one of the few characters if not the only one that just seems to be absolutly flawless and perfect. Something we didn't really have before. He was calm calculated and a genius. Also i really love DDD.
Reji is definitely a dope character. Where most rivals before him were brash and focused mostly on pure power, he (kinda along with Kaito but more so) focused more on tactics and speed.
It's not DDD it's D/D/D
This was a very interesting video though a few things to highlight:
- sample size is a powerful thing, as it meant that each category had the same order
- Chazz should have 24 points (3 lots of 8 points for 2nd in each category)
- the duel score should be divided by the total number of duels as larger sample size will always come out with a greater score otherwise.
Overall great video, and I think they will continue to get even better :)
"Glad to hear" you're a living legend lmfao
Are Jack's stats coming just from 5Ds or is Arc-V included as well
Jack's accent in the English dub is horrendous, but he is King for a reason.
Jonathan Her it is Bakura’s voice actor so it wasn’t so bad. Deeper voice would have been nice
I love it
I love British Jack Atlas
@@QU4DLIFE Yeah, British Jack Atlas is so overtop with the one liners. The only character lines I can deal with in duel links. I lie... I also play voice lines with Yami Yugi. That eng dubbed voice is just James Earl Jones epic.
I guess they were going for a pompous, English rock star from the UK with a Cockney accent for the dub for Jack. 🤷♂️
Jack atlas is one of my faves, glad he's the master of faster
an easy way is 1 point for every turn in an onscreen duel and 1 point for each off screen duel. this way you can quantify quality of duels.
I would say that shark is more like a joey to yugi as he is to yuma not kaiba. Kite and Kaiba even have powerful dragons (Blue-eyes and Galaxy-eyes) I would say the main rivals in the first five shows are Kaiba, Zane, Kite, Jack, and Declan
old silly ol'koiba he think he's some kinda of big deal nyaaah.
Even though Jack is my favourite yugioh character I didn't expect him to be that high.
But I think kaito is the best in terms of duelling IMO
Agree
Reiji would Beat kaito in a heart beat
TheSupremeKing27 he probably would but..........I personally think kaito would pull in the win or at least put up a good fight. In my opinion.
Jack is awesome and probably my favorite of all the rivals , even though Reiji is a close second for me .
Ashely Gordon yeah Jack is just the best and I love his story with Carly.
And reiji is pretty cool too.
this was an interesting video to watch, minor gripe would be just the fact I'd like to know who the loses were for each character but I could just look up them up so it's not a big deal. personally i just like seeing how well each duelist fares against the others and its astonishing to see how good/bad some due sometimes
Subbed! love the first one JADEN FTW! This is such a great series.
2 of my fav rivals
Seto Kaiba
Chazz Princeton
The real question is how did you count the Revolver v. Lightning duel? Even the wiki has changed how they counted that duel from what I recall. Has to be one of the most controversial endings in terms of whether it would be called a draw or loss for Revolver.
Lightnings LP were supposed to be 0 but he cheated to make it 1 and then reduced Revolvers to 0 so he lost instead so that doesn't count as a loss to me but a win
Now we need a statistically yugioh best friend video
I believe Kite is more of a rival than Shark. Just saying.
It’s Shark. Kite has the 3000 attack dragon but both story wise and in relation to Yuma, Shark is the rival.
Lmao the thing is the rival shouldn’t be supposed to win like every time
Tbh, it might be Vector and I'm just saying, he might not have had as many duels and wins as Rejonald but he and Yuma did play quite alot and he isn't that character that can force his opponent to just give up their joy of the game and then decide to start helping the "enemy" quote on quote
@Devil Kazuya what do you mean by "noob Chazz"?
Edit: btw that means how is he classified as a noob unless u couldn't process that part
Agreed. He has the typical rival monster stats too. Plus, I don't care that Yuma never beat him. Yuma sucked as a protagonist.
