It's also a good twist on the brainwashing trope Yugioh does in every series. Zane isn't being controlled by anyone, he willingly chose to become more brutal because he wanted more power
I really loved Sheperd's deck. The idea of constantly using your opponents cards against them is both fun and interesting to play. Kinda like Ditto in Pokemon
Best deck I had in this era involved a lot of dummy golem , creature swap, and return to the hand cards. It would also prey upon their desperation to attack my facedowns by having a few booby traps. My favorite was giant rat who could go for either a sentry golem or enraged muka muka.
Seeing Zane straight-up say "I don't want it!" to Cyber-End Dragon is just so... wrong! It really sells just how far gone he truly is at this point. Props to Shepard to almost winning, though. The old man has some pretty good tricks!
Sometimes i wonder what they teach them in DA considering the fact sacrificing your boss if it allow to win the duel is... something pretty common to do in Yu-Gi-Oh.
So, I want to take a look at what would have happened had he gone for Cyber Barrier Dragon instead and putting Zane's life points at 800. Since he would have been below 1000 points, he wouldn't be able to use Lost Pride to get a spell from the opponent's graveyard. That puts his field as Cyber Laser Dragon and an unsuable face-down of Lost Pride, with his hand ultimately being Creature Swap, Ruthless Denial, and Limiter Removal. Ruthless Denial sending Cyber Ogre to the graveyard would be pointless since he can't get Scrap Fusion with Lost Pride. So that leaves him with Creature Swap and Limiter Removal. If he uses Creature Swap to get Cyber End Dragon, Sheppard uses Trojan Blast to win. So the only option he has is killing Cyber End Dragon with Cyber Laser Dragon's effect and attacking Cyber Ester with Cyber Laser Dragon to deal 1200 points of damage, putting Sheppard at 2800 life points. If he used Limiter Removal he could put Sheppard at 400 points instead, but that would destroy Cyber Laser Dragon at the end of the turn and leave him wide open to attack and Zane only has 1000 life points. So more than likely Limiter Removal would get set face-down, and Sheppard only has to work around that on his turn since Creature Swap is not a quick-play spell. And the duel would continue on with Sheppard having 2800 life points and Cyber Ogre in his hand, versus Zane's 1000 life points, Cyber Laser Dragon on the field, face-down Limiter Removal and Lost Pride, and in hand Creature Swap and Ruthless Denial. Or Zane could just use Ruthless Denial to force the discard of Cyber Ogre regardless and leave Sheppard's hand completely empty, but then he runs the risk of a potential Overload Fusion like Zane used against that underground duelist for a severely overpowered Chimeratech Overdragon. Since Zane had the card, and Cyber End Dragon was given to him by Sheppard, there's no reason not to expect that Sheppard could possibly have that card as well, or some form of graveyard fusion since Sheppard had Scrap Fusion. So I think it would be more plausible Zane doesn't use Ruthless Denial if he couldn't use Sheppard's Scrap Fusion. Since Sheppard thought Zane cared for his bonds though, he tunnel visioned on that Trojan Blast strategy and didn't consider any other possibility.
Was about to comment on an error, but as it turns out, the dub is the one with the error, describing Laser Dragon's effect as needing the monster to have fewer ATK, when really, CLD needs a monster to have higher ATK/DEF than CLD's ATK
Well I guess the student schooled the teacher 🙄 judging Zane's analysis through his former masters strategy also Zane had Zane wanted to use Cyber End Dragon again he would've wanted too guess he adapted through it and found a loophole by taking cyber ogre 2 and figured what Shepard was trying to do however Zane is clearly the better duelist after all he did manage to defeat the protagonist of the series Jaden Yuki who never lost a duel besides three people including Zane himself.
9:35 at least the ATK points were clear and correct here (4600 -> 9200) When I saw the duel in Dailymotion, it was an error showing 8200 ATK since it was low quality and obscured.
@@Alibaba-id1csOnly Zane's Machines double. "Double the ATK of the Machine-type Monsters YOU currently control until the end of this turn. During the End Phase of this turn, destroy those Monsters."
@@alster724 How does Limiter Removal behave if you Quick Play it during Damage Calculation (since that's the only time in which Cyber Ogre 2's buff applies, at least in the RL Card release while the Anime just makes it a flat buff apparently)? Mentally my thought is you'd have to Chain/Activate LR in response to Damage Calculation, in which case since effects resolve in reverse, wouldn't it double CO to 5200, THEN apply the 2000 increase from its own effect for battling Cyber End Dragon? If the 2000 increase had applied at a different time and not been part of the 2x, that would leave the attack survivable for Sheppard and then blown up Cyber Ogre, or required Zane to skip the card to retain a monster and not leave himself in 1400 Direct Attack KO range.
also double spell discards a spell to steal a spell, without the lifepoint costs. toons also have mimicat, but thats not generic. lost prides artwork makes it look more like a battletrap, like half counter tbh.
The Trap Lost Pride represents Zane himself. Zane is the boxer Boxing gloves - Zane's respect for his opponents Brass knuckles - His ruthlessness and obsession for victory. The 1000 LP cost - The pain he endured in his underground match.
@@alster724 yeah, but its still weird, that this card has a spell stealing-effect. graverobber and double spell both have names regarding their function: stealing cards and duplicating opponents spells. its just blatantly a card, that was created for the anime: having perfect symbolism for the anime, and the perfect effect for the situation, but without a in-universe reason, why the symbolism and effect would be put together like that

I''m Even a PRO at using them for the last 10 years, yet i Agree with You. Btw, that Logic of people just asking for support for everything (instead of actually using their brains for strategy) is rather Childish Spoiled logic, not a Fair Enough one 👑
Something to know about Dragonball Kai is that they only edited things that were either considered too much like filler that interrupted the story with a bit of hindsight. The flashback sequences within this battle were not really filler it was just exposition made since this was a tv show and at this point of theories no one was expecting a backstory of Zane getting advance training up in a mountain.
Yo everyone in this show sacks Future Fusion on turn 1 lmao. Even the creators of the show knew it was the most busted starter in Yu Gi Oh history at that point.
It's so funny seeing Pot of Greed in the anime. It's like, they know the game is kind of crap when it comes to being able to get stuff into your hand so in order to keep these duels interesting everyone needs to draw a couple more cards to make their hands work for the thing they want the characters to do.
It's even funnier to me when the really bad archetypes have even heavier draw power, like Guardian Treasure going -4 initially but then just giving you 2 draws every Phase, or Zigfried's Nibelung Treasure which is "play a debilitating Spell on the opponent's field where it's arguably harder to remove and then draw 5 cards." Like the latter one's literally a +5 to play a card that is ostensibly a bad thing for the opponent (even if OCG/TCG it'd be absurdly lopsided for GY focused decks unless you just pop it immediately). Considering how powerful extra draws are in YGO, it's funny seeing how ven back then they had to give such absurd Draw Power just for some characters' decks to function even WITH Anime power dictating the outcomes.
5:16 could this card be broken in the real world? It's anime effect is that you can fusion summon a fusion monster from your opponent's extra deck to your side by banishing materials from your opponent's graveyard. Maybe you have to control no monsters to be able to activate this as a quick play effect.
@@thanoseid2883Some people use Super Poly with generic materials like Garura or Mudragon, Scrap fusion Monsters to summon a garura would be cool... But you need a loooooooot of text, because, how do you even write that without being too broken? You are looking to your opponent's extra deck after all...
@@thanoseid2883you could use scrap fusion against a tears or branded duelist to banish fusion materials and summon Kaledo-heart or that ice jade fusion monster to use against them
@@hellkaiser64or better yet. If you're fighting a blue eyes duelist, banish fusion materials in their GY and summon their magia from their extra deck to your side
I think it would be playable for machine fusion types, and maybe you should carry the fusion card in your deck. Good for mirror Matches. Plus there are already quick-play spells that conduct fusion already.
Future Fusion Continuous Spell: During your 1st Standby Phase after this card's activation: Show 1 Fusion Monster in your Extra Deck and send the Fusion Materials listed on it from your Main Deck to the GY. During your 2nd Standby Phase after this card's activation: Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck with the same name as the monster you showed, and target it with this card. When this card leaves the field, destroy that target. When that target is destroyed, destroy this card.
thats the current effect after a few erratas, but some anime effects are different like how in the anime card of demise let u draw until u had 5 cards in hand
Anime Future Fusion is an equip spell. It sends both fusion material monsters from the deck to the graveyard, then you special summon the fusion monster and equip it with the card. It can not attack the turn it's summoned (Summon sickness), and it can not be tributed (that rarely matters besides Kaiju hate) When the card is destroyed, destroy the monster. The card was nerfed from the anime for good reason lol
GX had some of the more interesting plot concepts and threads in any of the yugioh animes. There's something about the wackiness that keeps things interesting, even if GX is just "Jojo's Bizarre Adventures except the stands are cards from decks".
Scrap Fusion gotta be the most bizarre card I've seen cause what happens if you play the card, bring the materials out, and then realize they don't have a fusion target? Like don't get me wrong this duel was great but that card rly throws me off every time
Apparently the Japanese version (which prints the text on the cards) lists Scrap Fusion as being able to summon a Fusion Monster from either player's Extra Deck, so I guess besides stealing their Fusions as it is here, you could use it to Banish from their GY for a Generic you have yourself as a weird side-deck option? My first thought is if your opponent has Dragons with Floating or GY Trigger effects you could banish them for something like Five-Headed, or maybe DARKs to put out something like "Starving Venom Dragon" as a Nuke threat being run over if they don't have Destruction Immune monsters? I don't know if many Generic monsters even have Quick Effects that would benefit from being brought out on the opponent's turn with the Quick Play aspect. I'm grasping at Straws I know but I guess on Paper I see application for it even if it doesn't really apply often.
@@hunterhq295 yeah. remember the underworld deck was causing zane to have heart attacks and did those on syrus when he took up the deck at first. plus in this universe card spirits are a thing.
Couldn’t Sheppard have prolonged the duel by attacking Cyber Barrier Dragon rather than Laser Dragon? This would mean Zane couldn’t use the 1000 cost for his final attack.
I wish they'd done more to explore other Cyber Archetypes like Ogre & Esper. Looking back, Shepherd's deck was pretty weak. Don't get me wrong, I love the way he uses it, but he's playing Cyber Dragons without actual Cyber Dragons.
CThinking about it you're right even strategically. Cyber Esper baits Barrier Dragon, Twin double attacks and destroys both for 2400 damage (vs the 1600 of End destroying Laser). Zane's not only down more LP but doesn't have his Barrier Dragon to tribute for Ruthless Denial to set up the Cyber Ogre 2 fusion (and if I was following didn't have any other monster he could put out for it or for Creature Swap), which mans Sheppard just attacks for game next turn. I wonder if the writers considered that option or forgot about it, since Sheppard's Cyber End play was mentioned as trying to play to Zane's favoritism/bond with the monster but also wasn't an outright bad play, just sub-optimal with Twin as an option.
Future Fusion Continuous Spell During your 1st Standby Phase after this card's activation: Show 1 Fusion Monster in your Extra Deck and send the Fusion Materials listed on it from your Main Deck to the GY. During your 2nd Standby Phase after this card's activation: Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck with the same name as the monster you showed, and target it with this card. When this card leaves the field, destroy that target. When that target is destroyed, destroy this card.
10 years ago, future fusion allows you to ditch mosnters from grave to deck the moment it's activated which made it extremely broken. Konami had to banned it then errata it to the one we have now.
Honor Student in school realizing they were just a regular fish in a small pond, then stressed out when everyone around them is as good or better. Actually a surprisingly real/believable trajectory through that lens. The electric shock cage fighting probably didn't help the mental state either.
Zane was a prodigy and never lost a duel, when he went pro he actually had a winstreak going but he faced Aster and lost. You can argue it for plot reasons on why he lost but Zane went on a losing streak and became depressed. So he went into underground dueling where his life was on the line when dueling and he finally snapped and became edgy
Zane is aiming for OTK, if he use Creature Swap directly, Shepard will have chosen cyber esper instead, or If Zane do like what Shepard said "He use limiter removal to increase Cyber Barrier Dragon to attack Cyber Esper, then use Creature Swap", Zane will not be able to OTK in that turn
@@ifeanyiduruaku1244 Shepard had Cyber Esper and End Dragon during Zane's turn (Esper being why he was shown Zane's Draws and thus assumed that strat would work), though Zane attacking into Cyber End made for a more explosive finale since the exact same "Cyber Ogre 2 -> Limiter Removal" attack would have OTK'd on Cyber Esper (2600 + 600 = 3200 x 2 = 6400 -1200 = 5200) the same as it did Cyber End.
And Sheppard has Trojan Blast face down. So most likely he knows that he will get Cyber End Dragon back. Should that happen, Zane will take 4000 LP also destroying Cyber End Dragon.
He does after nearly dying from a heart attack. His heart gives out after abusing the shock collars so much that he physically can't duel any more and gives the Cyber deck to Syrus.
@@KingofDragons actually it was the cyberdarks themselves that were killing him. I just wish he actually lost a duel besides the Yubel Jesse one where he knew he was going to die (although he didn't which is good) so he just wanted to go out with a blaze of glory. Like have Syrus or Jaden beat him to make him get back his respectful self. It never happens sadly but I suppose that was part of the show's message, the harsh reality of growing up.
@@VixXstazosJOB While true, it is funny to imagine a player then or now giving up a Cyber Dragon deck for a Cyberdark one if the express goal is to win harder, unless up against a very specific opponent. Even back then, Cyber Dragons almost codified easy-access Special Summoning that would become necessary for a lot of Swarm Heavy decks, while Cyberdarks took 2-3 waves of support to become playable against anything with more cohesion than Roids or Crystal Beasts (prior to Generic Extra Deck Toolboxes for them to actually go into rather than just sit there).
*Sheppard:* “Now get your game on! Um, you kids are still using that phrase right?”
Even back in 2006, no
Hahahaha, He was trying his best to be hip, and one of the cool kids
Zane: that was Jaden.......
Would have been a good shout out if he said, it's time to duel! Instead
Why do that when we can Chazz it up?
@@syntheticbean6235 No today they say "Rizz it up"-- much worse in every way possible.
Love how everybody this season that duels Zane is like “this isn’t like you” and Zane is like “yeah it is” and just beats them all anyways 🤣

It's also a good twist on the brainwashing trope Yugioh does in every series. Zane isn't being controlled by anyone, he willingly chose to become more brutal because he wanted more power

GX had some of the more interesting plot concepts and threads in any of the yugioh animes. There's something about the wackiness that keeps things interesting, even if GX is just "Jojo's Bizarre Adventures except the stands are cards from decks".
8:04 Ryo's (Zane) Creature Swap turns into Pot of Greed for a frame
Wahahahaha I paused and saw it coming
Is this different from the original at all? I'm not noticing any real differences
It's not really a Kai just edited to cut out dialogue
I wonder if Sheppard had the other non-Zane Cyber cards
If dark Zane was a WWE character, he will be the perfect heel
Shouldn't have shepherds shadow gardna remained with the stats of cyber end dragon but I guess the anime rules might apply differently
Yeah apparently cards effect are different in anime
I have to ask is Kai just the duels?
This is peak yu-gi-oh
I don’t remember this???
It’s few episodes after he lost against aster phoenix
Scrap Fusion gotta be the most bizarre card I've seen cause what happens if you play the card, bring the materials out, and then realize they don't have a fusion target? Like don't get me wrong this duel was great but that card rly throws me off every time
Apparently the Japanese version (which prints the text on the cards) lists Scrap Fusion as being able to summon a Fusion Monster from either player's Extra Deck, so I guess besides stealing their Fusions as it is here, you could use it to Banish from their GY for a Generic you have yourself as a weird side-deck option?
My first thought is if your opponent has Dragons with Floating or GY Trigger effects you could banish them for something like Five-Headed, or maybe DARKs to put out something like "Starving Venom Dragon" as a Nuke threat being run over if they don't have Destruction Immune monsters? I don't know if many Generic monsters even have Quick Effects that would benefit from being brought out on the opponent's turn with the Quick Play aspect.
I'm grasping at Straws I know but I guess on Paper I see application for it even if it doesn't really apply often.
Shepherd could have destroyed the underworld deck right?
maybe. but it's later shown the deck is alive in a sense so it might have killed him had he tried it.
@@thanoseid2883 true,and shepherd probably knew this so he kept them stashed instead
@@thanoseid2883 Even if he tried to toss them in a fire?
@@hunterhq295 yeah. remember the underworld deck was causing zane to have heart attacks and did those on syrus when he took up the deck at first. plus in this universe card spirits are a thing.
@@thanoseid2883 Only when he respected the cards he stopped feeling pain, though wonder why the cyberdarks didn't hurt Zane sooner
Kane's coat reminds me of Zaiba's
Couldn’t Sheppard have prolonged the duel by attacking Cyber Barrier Dragon rather than Laser Dragon? This would mean Zane couldn’t use the 1000 cost for his final attack.
Shepard is bald?! I bet he waxes daily 😲
I wish they'd done more to explore other Cyber Archetypes like Ogre & Esper. Looking back, Shepherd's deck was pretty weak. Don't get me wrong, I love the way he uses it, but he's playing Cyber Dragons without actual Cyber Dragons.
Sheppherd should have summon Cyber twin Dragon instead (that’s my opinion)
CThinking about it you're right even strategically. Cyber Esper baits Barrier Dragon, Twin double attacks and destroys both for 2400 damage (vs the 1600 of End destroying Laser). Zane's not only down more LP but doesn't have his Barrier Dragon to tribute for Ruthless Denial to set up the Cyber Ogre 2 fusion (and if I was following didn't have any other monster he could put out for it or for Creature Swap), which mans Sheppard just attacks for game next turn.
I wonder if the writers considered that option or forgot about it, since Sheppard's Cyber End play was mentioned as trying to play to Zane's favoritism/bond with the monster but also wasn't an outright bad play, just sub-optimal with Twin as an option.
Cyber End Dragon retrain please
Future fusion first effect different from current
ikr takes 2 turns to summon. according to current card version
Future Fusion
Continuous Spell
During your 1st Standby Phase after this card's activation: Show 1 Fusion Monster in your Extra Deck and send the Fusion Materials listed on it from your Main Deck to the GY. During your 2nd Standby Phase after this card's activation: Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck with the same name as the monster you showed, and target it with this card. When this card leaves the field, destroy that target. When that target is destroyed, destroy this card.
10 years ago, future fusion allows you to ditch mosnters from grave to deck the moment it's activated which made it extremely broken. Konami had to banned it then errata it to the one we have now.
@@nathanshelman bruh,read the anime version
Yeah, it’s gotten a _bunch_ of erratas over the years for some reason
he is more ruthless than Seto Kiaba!!!
Der spielt auch wirklich die lahmsten Cyber Karten 😂
They created a whole ass hidden cult Temple for a difficult to summon mediocre fusion Monster. Gx was awesome.
The archetype is so terrible it gives the user heart attack
Zane should summon Cyberdark End Dragon
Shepherd casually playing the most broken fusion spell there is "Scrap fusion" and thought zane would target cyber end? Goofy😂😂😂
First of all that was Cyber Barrier Dragon you sacrificed for ruthless denial but I'ma let you cook tho zane. 😹😹
Dub error
Pot of greed. End of story.
I never understood why Zane became dark
Because of the Underground Duel, he become obsessed of winning
emo phase, happens to a lot of honors kids
Honor Student in school realizing they were just a regular fish in a small pond, then stressed out when everyone around them is as good or better. Actually a surprisingly real/believable trajectory through that lens.
The electric shock cage fighting probably didn't help the mental state either.
Zane was a prodigy and never lost a duel, when he went pro he actually had a winstreak going but he faced Aster and lost. You can argue it for plot reasons on why he lost but Zane went on a losing streak and became depressed. So he went into underground dueling where his life was on the line when dueling and he finally snapped and became edgy
Zane cant have 4 cyber dragons un his deck
Theres no reason for zane not to play creature swap unless he knows Shepard is playing the trojan card.
Thats too ridiculous 😂😂😂
Zane is aiming for OTK, if he use Creature Swap directly, Shepard will have chosen cyber esper instead, or If Zane do like what Shepard said "He use limiter removal to increase Cyber Barrier Dragon to attack Cyber Esper, then use Creature Swap", Zane will not be able to OTK in that turn
@kamuishiro3565 wait wasn't it only fusion cyber Shepard had on the field ?
@@ifeanyiduruaku1244 watch again, shepard had summon cyber esper
@@ifeanyiduruaku1244 Shepard had Cyber Esper and End Dragon during Zane's turn (Esper being why he was shown Zane's Draws and thus assumed that strat would work), though Zane attacking into Cyber End made for a more explosive finale since the exact same "Cyber Ogre 2 -> Limiter Removal" attack would have OTK'd on Cyber Esper (2600 + 600 = 3200 x 2 = 6400 -1200 = 5200) the same as it did Cyber End.
And Sheppard has Trojan Blast face down. So most likely he knows that he will get Cyber End Dragon back.
Should that happen, Zane will take 4000 LP also destroying Cyber End Dragon.
How did he win
Cyber Ogre 2's effect + Limiter Removal raised his ATK
It always upset me that Zane never returned back to being nice again. He should have lost at least once before Yubel beat him to humble him.
Season 4
He does after nearly dying from a heart attack. His heart gives out after abusing the shock collars so much that he physically can't duel any more and gives the Cyber deck to Syrus.
he is semi nice in seasons 3-4,but never truly back to his old self
@@KingofDragons actually it was the cyberdarks themselves that were killing him.
I just wish he actually lost a duel besides the Yubel Jesse one where he knew he was going to die (although he didn't which is good) so he just wanted to go out with a blaze of glory.
Like have Syrus or Jaden beat him to make him get back his respectful self.
It never happens sadly but I suppose that was part of the show's message, the harsh reality of growing up.
SEASON 4...
And no, i''m not mistaken.
"be happy i spared you" . What do you wanna do ? after winning the duel start punch him ??? bro is that cringe hahahah
Too bad the cyber darks aren't that great
You clearly have not seen them played irl by actual good players...
@@VixXstazosJOB While true, it is funny to imagine a player then or now giving up a Cyber Dragon deck for a Cyberdark one if the express goal is to win harder, unless up against a very specific opponent. Even back then, Cyber Dragons almost codified easy-access Special Summoning that would become necessary for a lot of Swarm Heavy decks, while Cyberdarks took 2-3 waves of support to become playable against anything with more cohesion than Roids or Crystal Beasts (prior to Generic Extra Deck Toolboxes for them to actually go into rather than just sit there).
I actually like Zane
He Does remind me of Kaiba. With that attitude
They ruine zen and now chad who has remplace him as kaiba gx
Zane wins again easily
Anyone else hate Zane? Better yet, I hate his whole deck. It’s the living definition of busted, especially in duel links.
Zane's deck is so boring. All of his monsters look the same.
