I saw you privated it, but I wanted to thank you for making that video on NEX. I believe the NEX fusions need retrains and the set of fusions need to be complete and I want the card to get more coverage so it'll be back on Komami's radar that it's something they can go back to fix. I really liked the NEX Neos fusions as they're the only contact fusions that don't return to the extra deck at the end of the turn. Even if they're never competitive, I'd like them to be complete enough to be useable in friendlies. A version of NEX that can use neospacians from the deck and a retrain that allows the fusions to be considered different cards to avoid the 3 total limit ruling issue alone would be enough for me, though slightly improving the power of the effects to have Marine Dolphin do more damage or adjusting the Twinkle Moss effects would be good. I also really want to see the advanced Neos fusions for the rest of the advanced forms, because the base neospacian-Neos fusions are so extreme in being good or bad, it'd be nice to get them modern, advanced improvements. I'm sure it had a negative response, cause it was a negative video about something HERO, but I really appreciate it

GX at least establishes that in-universe, topdecking is a skill that one can possess or train. Doesn't explain all the weird random techs they'd run, though. Dark Catapulter?
@@RazorusR3X777 Didn't episode 1 Jaden give the business to an elite professor, cooked any kind of villain en masse one after the other and regardless of available friendly help and either defeated or came through against the GX bosses and situations (both the hardest and most intense of the whole Yugioh animated series), and especially with the portion of own decks/cards created by him because they were the later-portion cards and monsters (not like the first part opponents were slouches either, just like the Elemental Heroes were almost as effective as his Neo Spacians)? All of that material and imagination as a kid too lol already by landing something like Grand Mole (imagine doing that as a 7 years old lol) the deal is closed on the quality. The use, relationship and mechanics of origins-created card concept in GX is particularly great too because, before the Jaden ones and flashbacls, I remember Chumley getting into it mid series and even giving Jaden Skyscraper 2 Hero City, before going through in becoming a professional about it, on top of all the loads (basically more characters than have it then not) of both friends and opponents that have a special relationship and link with their cards and decks.
@@RazorusR3X777 In a setting where the canon and standard are, aside the hearts of card and stuff, how much hearts and intensity and care you put in creating your deck (and that translating to actual success and ability, the reason why Dimitri couldn't beat Jaden even with the Yugi set and persona - according to Jaden/the episode final explanation - ), that's pretty elite for a character to do that and at that age, on top of the looming Yubel threat already/those cards coming back and becoming relevant to him and his either recovery or saving, before proceeding to beat even Yubel on top (which needed all the Neos/Neos ultimate fusions too to lead the proper neo spacians - and the elemental heroes too if I recall correctly - , and imagine creating a monster, base and engine like Elemental Hero Neos as a child lol). Plus, he would've been canonically done for if he hadn't created those cards and if those cards weren't at least all functional, synergetic and pretty good (instead they were, if used by his top duelling ability at least, elite and one of the best decks in the series). And when he retrieved the ability to use his deck, the neo spacians and elemental together were pretty great in combo and synergy too.
I find it hilarious that Jaden is largely known for Elemental Heroes and Neo-Spacians, which even at the time weren't even close to competitive, but whenever he went off theme, he used cards that dominated or heavily impacted the IRL game. I feel like there's some kind of metaphor here
@@muhisxv I think he's talking about Pepe (Performapals Performages), which was one of the competitive decks that reached tier 0 status. It's also the archetype that Yuya used in the Arc-V series.
His first deck was also Elemental Heroes except he also used the Omni Heroes (aka the actually good E Hero fusions). Then during the middle he switched to a Masked Hero deck which tbh is a lot worse than his initial deck.
When I was a kid, Jaden was my favorite yugioh character (he’s still up there) and it was so cool when I started the game and I got to play a bunch of cards Jaden used... and they were actually GOOD. I feel like not counting Yuma getting every Number monster or Yuya NOT resolving Pendulum Sorcerer’s effect the singular time he appears, Jaden is the protag with the most competitive deck followed by Yusei
It wasn't used until Season 4, which still hasn't been dubbed. So, I don't blame him for missing it. Really good card in Counter Fairies and Chaos decks.
@@strikingshadow0219 i personally still think the 3rd season is better. The 4th season could've been my favourite, if it didn't feel so rushed and gave the evnts that were happening a bit more time to develop.
i think Honest should make or be mentioned to this list. I mean i know it's not his original card, it's belong to someone else.. but not only Jaden play that card, it also had a counterpart in Neos form so technically you can count Honest as one of Jaden's monster card
I have fond memories of somehow beating my friend's fully powered Lightsworn deck back when they first came out with a "copy" of Jaden's deck. Mask Change doing WORK. Good times.
Bubbleman was kinda op. It got nerfed in real life lol. But Superpolmerisation is probably the most op card cuz it could defeat cards like quasar and other things like that. Something interesting about the anime is that it took the opponent’s monsters and made real fusion Yugioh cards on the spot. Like Rainbow Dragon was a newly invented card but Jaden made Rainbow Neos out of fine air. Don’t tell me Pegasus thought about designing this improbable fusion and Jaden had it. Same thing for Neos Wiseman.
The Neo Spacians were also like Pegasus' Toon cards. One of a kind that Jaden made and they got made. Pegasus may not have even known what Neo-Spacian were and he only just made Rainbow Dragon a card because he was show it existed in ancient ruins.
Sabatial’s actual effect only searches out a polymerization or fusion spell card while you have a winged Kuriboh in your graveyard. If it weren’t for that condition is probably would have seen play at some point but as is it’s not very good.
@@chompyzilla Yeah the things we'll do for a Pot card, paying half your LP to search anything from Deck or GY with the card itself returning to the Deck. Add a niche use of being searchable itself via Winged Kuriboh, which itself is searchable via Flute of Summoning Kuriboh, the card would've definitely seen play. Looking back, most of the Tag Force anime cards that were eventually released were actually buffed like Litmus Doom Swordsman and Ayers Rock Sunrise
It's kinda hilarious the list of cards he played that managed to be relevant at the time of release and even now. Mirror force, solemn judgement, dandylion, card trooper, super polymerization, grand mole, spell striker, mirage of nightmare etc.
This is a really cool analysis :) Something I would like to see at some point is a comparison between all (or an X number of) main character's ACTUAL decks (as far as you can piece them together, of course). It would be a challenge to analyze those decks I think, especially seen the fact the writers obviously don't think too much about how actual decks are constructed
Actually i want to add one card to this list: Elemental Hero Neos Allius. It actually saw competitive play and there was a deck dedicated to play allius. My friend went to europeen championship (wcq) with this deck. With E-emergency call u add allius and u use cards like gemini spark to gain advantage. Of course super poly and miracle fusion is used to have more obtions since allius is a hero monster and super poly can be used for any attribute to substitute. I like this type of control decks so i wanted to mention it :)
I actually laughed at 10:00; I love these new cuts that leave in the outtakes, they're really charming. I saw people in the twitter thread (where you were checking about Stratos) saying "oh this will be short" because people only remember the vanilla E HEROS for some reason, but man there's some crazy cards here.
He also played a spell called 'Take Over 5 " with text that reads Send the top 5 cards of your Deck to the Graveyard. During your next Standby Phase, if this card is in your Graveyard, you can select and remove from play 1 card with the same name as this card from your hand, Deck, or Graveyard to draw 1 card. While this card is in your Graveyard, any cards sent from the Deck to the Graveyard is negated by this card's effect. *Broken*
It's be cool if at the end of these anime character videos you attempt to make the most competitive deck possible with only the cards they played in the anime. I know it wouldn't be a good deck but interesting none the less!
I totally forgot that Card Trooper was in Jaden's deck. I just did some research and learned that it was actually the chase card in duelist pack Jaden 2! This was back when duelist packs had one ultra
I'd LOVE to see a Manga version of this video! I love Jaden and love Heroes. I have played Heroes for better part of 10 yrs now with my Jaden token at my side, every game!!!
manga elemental hero cards are some of my favourite decks when I play the Yugioh card games, it is so much fun comboing Super polymerization to steal whatever monster the opponent is using and fusing it to make one of them, I like to go for Absolute Zero since that is a hard one to deal with lol
I played aqua dolphin way ahead of the curve. Way before hand traps. Combo’ed great with atlanteans in water decks. Even in DL water neos was very good, I got kog at least 5x with it. Neos in general already used some water cards like gale lizard or nightmare penguin but with abyss solder it was even better as you could OTK them even faster not having to set a monster for a turn. Even aqua dolphins lame fusion was pretty darn good in DL once jaden got the skyscraper field spell skill.
@@BrokenSIMGlasses I mean sure but he had the omni heroes and he also ran Thunder King Rai-oh which has seen a lot of play in the past and for once, he actually played ROTA. I'm just convinced the manga jaden is just better at deck building. That being said the 5D's manga was a bit.... yikes lol
It's funny because even though you can rip a hand trap from your opponent's hand with Aqua Dolphin, if you want to summon dolphin from the deck with Connector, then your opponent can just use ash, veiler, ghost ogre on that connector
I'm surprised not to see Flame Wingman here just because that thing absolutely chews through its opponent's life points even with defense position monsters. But I guess it needed too much support to really take advantage of its effect.
Anime Jaden's cards are mostly trash but are fun and really showed what a fusion based archetype can do. I should know I used to run Elemental Heroes back then. Poly was still bad back then. Manga Jaden's cards are full of power and consistency. Especially once he moved to Masked Heroes as his particular style. Masked Heroes are the reason Heroes are still relevant to this day.
You know, for the amount of shitty specific Hero cards Jaden had like Feather Shot, he also managed to have a lot of really good cards in both the anime and the manga.
Talk about the Manga Jaden and the Masked Heros! Then again that video would probably just be all about Masked Heroes, but I don't see that as an issue
around 10:00 there seems to be some weird editing with Rainbow Neos. Otherwise great video! Would definitely be interested in manga decks in general, not just Jaden (very interested in Jaden's deck, however)! EDIT: Same weird editing around 13:20 for Spell Striker.
Think Grand Mole could still be teched in some rock decks, might even have some Adamancipator potential. I can't really say for that specific deck though since I'm still getting those cards right now. lol
For anyone curious what anime bubble man did, he had the same thing as normal bubble man being able to special summon himself if he was the only card in your hand. But unlike real life bubble man the draw 2 effect worked even if he was just normal summoned so if that was bubble man’s actual effect he would definitely be a good target for rota but maybe not the best for a hero lives
The past few weeks I've noticed some portions of audio repeating. Some new edeting program, or trying different techniques being used? Either way, figured I'd give a heads up.
Jaden's cards are the most unique and balanced cards . I main Jaden ,yuya,Joey,quattro,jack,soul burner. All of them are op and can make you summon op monsters easily except jaden's
Always put Jaden near the top of best main protagonist duelists mostly because I think he carried for most part of Bonds Beyond Time, but going back to anime, it’s rough with how many times he turn 1 summons Avian in ATK mode and sets 0-1 before saying go. Was always baffled how he had Mirror Force once but then went back to Negate Attack for the rest of the series. And yes please do the manga cards.
I was beginning to think towards the end there that you weren't going to mention Necro Gardna, but even I'd forgot about Dandylion and I'm watching Season 2 now... Quick point, mind but isn't Grand Mole still Limited? I know it was for a reet long time... I remember he played Mirror Force against Titan, the Archfiend player, but I don't remember him playing Solemn Judgment... I remember Demise of the Land, he used it to then beat Crowler's Ancient Gear Golem with Flame Wingman! Again!

My friend went to europeen championship (wcq) with this deck. With E-emergency call u add allius and u use cards like gemini spark to gain advantage. Of course super poly and miracle fusion is used to have more obtions since allius is a hero monster and super poly can be used for any attribute to substitute. I like this type of control decks so i wanted to mention it :)
He never actually uses that card.
I'd like a reverse of this series.
How bad were Jaden's cards? Where we talk about the really bad cards they played
I actually laughed at 10:00; I love these new cuts that leave in the outtakes, they're really charming.
I saw people in the twitter thread (where you were checking about Stratos) saying "oh this will be short" because people only remember the vanilla E HEROS for some reason, but man there's some crazy cards here.
Miracle Fusion still sees play as a 1 of in every HERO deck since we now have a reliable searcher for it
Neo Spacian Dark Pather and Graceful Charity also saw lots of competetive play
Jaden best protag
He also played a spell called 'Take Over 5 " with text that reads
Send the top 5 cards of your Deck to the Graveyard. During your next Standby Phase, if this card is in your Graveyard, you can select and remove from play 1 card with the same name as this card from your hand, Deck, or Graveyard to draw 1 card. While this card is in your Graveyard, any cards sent from the Deck to the Graveyard is negated by this card's effect. *Broken*
It's be cool if at the end of these anime character videos you attempt to make the most competitive deck possible with only the cards they played in the anime. I know it wouldn't be a good deck but interesting none the less!
I totally forgot that Card Trooper was in Jaden's deck. I just did some research and learned that it was actually the chase card in duelist pack Jaden 2! This was back when duelist packs had one ultra
when lost millinum came out i had no problems doing the e hero fusion it was all about rampart blaster and flame wing man spam
I'd LOVE to see a Manga version of this video! I love Jaden and love Heroes. I have played Heroes for better part of 10 yrs now with my Jaden token at my side, every game!!!
Love the video mostly because I’m a simp for jaden and GX. The editing was a bit off this video though I hope you didn’t rush it
manga elemental hero cards are some of my favourite decks when I play the Yugioh card games, it is so much fun comboing Super polymerization to steal whatever monster the opponent is using and fusing it to make one of them, I like to go for Absolute Zero since that is a hard one to deal with lol
Compared to other characters, not so much. GX era in general is the one with the least OP anime cards.
You mean lore wise?
What about Sub Racial Battle, Take Over 5, Double Fusion, Anime Version of Battle Fusion, Effect Shut?
Ah yes, my favourite hero of all time
Evil HERO ADJUSTED GOLD.
(12:02)
13:20 am i the only one who noticed the “Spell striker is another” repeat 3 times?
I played aqua dolphin way ahead of the curve. Way before hand traps. Combo’ed great with atlanteans in water decks. Even in DL water neos was very good, I got kog at least 5x with it. Neos in general already used some water cards like gale lizard or nightmare penguin but with abyss solder it was even better as you could OTK them even faster not having to set a monster for a turn. Even aqua dolphins lame fusion was pretty darn good in DL once jaden got the skyscraper field spell skill.
Definitely would be interested in a manga hero video, as well as dark E heroes and masked Heroes!
Yu-Gi-Oh mangas are always better than the animes, so count this as a vote for looking at Jaden's manga cards.
Jaden manga cards aren't as strong as the real life counterparts
like most fusion there are just vanillas or used as fodder for EHero Terra Firma
@@BrokenSIMGlasses I mean sure but he had the omni heroes and he also ran Thunder King Rai-oh which has seen a lot of play in the past and for once, he actually played ROTA. I'm just convinced the manga jaden is just better at deck building. That being said the 5D's manga was a bit.... yikes lol
I had Thunder King Rai-Oh once, but I sadly lost it.
It's funny because even though you can rip a hand trap from your opponent's hand with Aqua Dolphin, if you want to summon dolphin from the deck with Connector, then your opponent can just use ash, veiler, ghost ogre on that connector
Dzeef you missed one, Jaden also played Gallis the Star Beast.
I'm surprised not to see Flame Wingman here just because that thing absolutely chews through its opponent's life points even with defense position monsters. But I guess it needed too much support to really take advantage of its effect.
Gramps used mirage of nightmare the same way jaden did in...THE KC GRAND CHAMPIONSHIP! Which no one acknowledges as a mini arc for some reason.
Anime Jaden's cards are mostly trash but are fun and really showed what a fusion based archetype can do. I should know I used to run Elemental Heroes back then. Poly was still bad back then.
Manga Jaden's cards are full of power and consistency. Especially once he moved to Masked Heroes as his particular style. Masked Heroes are the reason Heroes are still relevant to this day.
Every time i hear someone say dzeef i keep thinking they're gonna say deez nuts
You know, for the amount of shitty specific Hero cards Jaden had like Feather Shot, he also managed to have a lot of really good cards in both the anime and the manga.
Talk about the Manga Jaden and the Masked Heros! Then again that video would probably just be all about Masked Heroes, but I don't see that as an issue
Don't forget the Omni Heroes like Absolute Zero or The Shining.
around 10:00 there seems to be some weird editing with Rainbow Neos. Otherwise great video! Would definitely be interested in manga decks in general, not just Jaden (very interested in Jaden's deck, however)!
EDIT: Same weird editing around 13:20 for Spell Striker.
I honestly really like spell striker I think if another good rank 3 comes out it could be useful again
Think Grand Mole could still be teched in some rock decks, might even have some Adamancipator potential. I can't really say for that specific deck though since I'm still getting those cards right now. lol
13:26 Dzeeff struggling 💀
Finally a mention to gladiator beast in one of your videos. I can die in peace now
He had so many anime specific cards, was surprise by how many
99% of Jaden’s deck is useless unless you have an “Elemental Hero” in your deck.
Alright I wasn't sold the first time, but the third spell striker really got to me
For anyone curious what anime bubble man did, he had the same thing as normal bubble man being able to special summon himself if he was the only card in your hand. But unlike real life bubble man the draw 2 effect worked even if he was just normal summoned so if that was bubble man’s actual effect he would definitely be a good target for rota but maybe not the best for a hero lives
Well yes, but Jaden used this very specific card that I'm pretty confused about
*Anyone know what Pot of Greed does?*
Would love the manga video, dark law is the king of heroes
The past few weeks I've noticed some portions of audio repeating. Some new edeting program, or trying different techniques being used? Either way, figured I'd give a heads up.
It's just stuff I miss during editing
Jaden's cards are the most unique and balanced cards .
I main Jaden ,yuya,Joey,quattro,jack,soul burner. All of them are op and can make you summon op monsters easily except jaden's
Yes a Manga Jaden video would be great.
Always put Jaden near the top of best main protagonist duelists mostly because I think he carried for most part of Bonds Beyond Time, but going back to anime, it’s rough with how many times he turn 1 summons Avian in ATK mode and sets 0-1 before saying go.
Was always baffled how he had Mirror Force once but then went back to Negate Attack for the rest of the series.
And yes please do the manga cards.
Crazy how good so many of Jaden's cards are
Grandmole is also fun for adamamtia decks.
Awwww gx this is where Yu-Gi-Oh died for me I enjoyed everything up to the end of it truly was the golden age of cartoons and video games 💯
Anime*
Why?
I’d love to see a video on jaden’a manga heroes!
In Duel links I would use elemental grand merge to summon elemental hero electrum.
I was beginning to think towards the end there that you weren't going to mention Necro Gardna, but even I'd forgot about Dandylion and I'm watching Season 2 now... Quick point, mind but isn't Grand Mole still Limited? I know it was for a reet long time... I remember he played Mirror Force against Titan, the Archfiend player, but I don't remember him playing Solemn Judgment... I remember Demise of the Land, he used it to then beat Crowler's Ancient Gear Golem with Flame Wingman! Again!
He used solemn judgement against jinzo
@@yugiohfan7906 Okay, I shall have to go back and rewatch it then, from the sounds of it... I can't remember a fair bit...
@@CD-Gaming it is okay haha
Also for another character, I recommend Chazz or Zane
I always loved Jadens manga deck
I’ve used a lot of different cons and everyone I’ve used has cut my speed by 2/MB I usually get 8 MB so yeah kind of annoying if I have too download a large file this is why I’ve never used nord but thanks for advertising it
Elemental Heroes is my favourite archetype
I remember Jaden used that Solemn Judgement card in that duel against Jinzo
I mean come on Douglass he definitely without any doubt did play a lot of broken cards
10:00 yes Dzeeff rainbow neos does in fact, have a few different ways
I LOVE Grand Mole... Probably my fav card ever
Wasn’t the original bubble man how the anime was?and Konami had to reprint it with its current ability. I’m almost 100% certain
Hey let me use honest
Super polymerization
And elemental hero neos
Rainbow neos,pot of greed,solemn judgment,mirage of nightmare and grand mole in its days. Oh and trooper too
Super poly my dude
@@Darkerooz Didnt the supreme king use that?
10:04 you doing okay?? 😂😂
