Fun Fact: The Wicked Gods are all based on different depictions of the Devil. Eraser is based on the Dragon of the Apocalypse. In some versions of Christianity, this Dragon is also a form of the Devil. Dreadroot is based on the Baphomet inspired depiction of Satan, as a muscular demon with the legs of a goat. This is the mot common depiction of the Devil in modern literature. Avatar is based on the fallen angel Lucifer, the light bringer. It has a halo-like effect in it's card artwork despite being a massive sphere of darkness, meaning it's giving off light.
I guess that's what makes them weaker. Relying on your opponent inherently makes their use unpredictable since you can't control your own monster's power levels.
the wicked gods for the longest time have been shelved. And I hope they get erratas that make their special summon like Kaijus along with extra effects and give em a 4th combined member with a win condition.
The Wicked Avatar is one of those cards that’s just waiting for someone to break it and make it banlist material A lingering, one sided floodgate like that is incredibly broken even today Once it becomes easier to summon you’ll see people calling for it to go in exactly the same fashion as King Calamity
The Wicked Avatar has always been my favourite god card of all the line ups of "Gods". It's effect is simple, but brutally effecient, and it's the only god type card that truly lets you bend the rules of the game, making you feel like you are weilding the power to bend things to your will. Is it good? No. Is it a fun card? Of course. Also its design being a dark sphere is weirdly cool as an inversion of Ra, since it is basically what I'd imagine seeing from a sun heralding the apocalypse, which it is meant to be.
Turn one: activate numeron network, summon 4 xyz dudes, tribute 3 of them, opponent quits because they think i can kill them next turn and they cant defend themselves without spells.
These guys definitely deserve some support. I’m honestly surprised they don’t have a sub-archetype to help summon these guys more easier like the Sacred Beasts or Aesirs.
I remember being gifted a copy of Yugioh R a while I was young, and inside it had a copy of the Wicked Avatar. I had always tried to throw it into my deck as it seemed like a fun card to play.
The wicked gods should get more support besides the one spell card that mentions them. Maybe also adding a combined version of them like the Gods and Sacred Beasts do.
yeah we'll call it "the wicked god" lmao. but ido agree that they have only one support card and its not that good. they need to make the wicked gods easier to summon or make a equivalent to soul crossing but for wicked gods
@@elmental56 They honestly need Sacred Beast levels of support cards with monsters, spells and maybe strong traps. Fallen Paradise alone improves it by being a free pot of greed every turn if you have one of the Sacred Beasts on the board.
@@KyoryuDiabolos anything that makes wicked gods at least fun to play its not even to play lmao. or do retrains of the wicked gods make dreadroot do more than just half attack
I have built and played a wicked god deck in yugioh master duel. Its tough but not impossible. You can easily summon any of the 3 in turn one if you use numeron network. You can search any of the three wicked gods with three eye ghost and you can get extra tribute summons with ancient chant. One of the best parts of the deck is how you can tribute your opponents monsters thanks to the newly released [spell card: "soul exchange"].
@@elmental56 Fait enough but if they released retrains, their effect will have to include the original names on the field or graveyard, be searchable and punish your opponent on summon. Avatar already has a pseudo floodgate effect on summon but the attack gain isn’t really doing much for it on its own. All three need targeting and non target protection as well.
Really nice and interesting video! The Wicked Avatar was one of my favourite cards when i was playing in as a proffesional in official tournaments (before synchros were released). I comboed it with Gran Maju Garzett to have two beasticks in battle.
Egyptian Gods in the anime: 💀💀💀😈😈😈🔴🔵🟡 Epyotian Gods in the real game: 🔴🤡 🔵💀 🟡🐥 (Obelisk is still fairly good irl) 4000 base stat, can’t target, if you have fodder he can raigeki. But, all the Egyptian gods PALE in comparison to the ULTIMATE CONDUCTOR TYRANNO!!!!! Lvl10, 35k attack, super op ability, can attack every monster at once. Bro is basically a God Card.
Slifer: "My attack is equal to the cards in my owner's hand x1000" Wicked Eraser: "Your attack is equal to the cards in your owner's hand? My attack is equal to the cards in your owner's hand."
The Jashin are my favourite God cards. YUGIOH R was my favourite manga series, and Yako Tennma is my favourite character from the manga cannon (from duel monsters at least, Kyuji Yagumo is my favourite from Zexal). Love Keiths arc in the manga too!
The wicked dreadroot is the one that needs an errata or retrain the most. And since the wicked can canonnicaly be replicated it makes sense that they could be artificially improved with makes them technically the only "god" cards that can circunvent their own original description without affecting the lore in are retroactive way.
Yugioh R is great!! I recommend it to everyone! Just to pique your interest: opponents are named after US brands of food (ie Tilla Mook), Kaiba slams the f**k out of Yako with his metallic briefcase, and Tristan and Joey do an ORA! to punch someone. 10/10 manga.
I would have loved to see what the fusion of the 3 would look like. But maybe they should get a special treatment like 3 fusions of 2 of them, it would make them more unique when compared to the other 2 god trios. Maybe fusing them by ritual summon by banishing them from the graveyard or something. Honestly, making anything related to ritual summon involving them would be fitting
I'll raise the hierarchy subject for dreadroot's stats manipulation, since it's a higher hierarchy than normal cards, that means, it's applied last since it's the most beneficial equation from the effects, well, just imo
Dreadroot kinda failing to counter Obelisk given that Obelisk can have infinite attack for a solid punch. Halving doesn't really mean shit in that instance.
There's an equip spell card that is very useful for the Wicked Eraser and perfect for the Wicked Dreadroot called (SOLITARY SWORD OF POISON). Hears how it works. Equip only to a monster you control. If the equipped monster battles an opponent's monster, the equipped monster's ATK/DEF is doubled during damage calculation only. If you control a monster other, than the equipped monster, send this card to the GY. You can only control 1 Solitary Sword of Poison".
The wicked gods interestingly enough have actually really good effects and one is one of the best beaters in the game the problem is too much input for not enough output
YGOPRO has an alternate version of Eraser that translates the card's fluff text into its actual effect. Instead of destruction based removal, it sends all cards on the field to the GY and can be activated whenever it is sent GY, even from the deck. Imagine having a one card raigeki feather duster that can be activated with foolish or used as discard fodder 💀
I do cpu vs cpu tournaments on my channel and for my reduel series i have if someone collects the 3 wicked gods, they release the dark god Reshef. Sol (yami pegasus) and Alexander (from capsule monsters are both looking to resurrect the Reshef.
The thing that really kills the fact that they won’t get any support is that a lot of Tenmas cards have been printed (Leraje, Votis, Cassimolar,) and none of them have any effect that correlate with the Gods. So yeah, outside of cards like Divine Evolution and Angel 01, they’re not getting any support anytime soon
I play wicked gods in master duel, and there are some cards that help the archetype immensly: Three eye ghost lets you search any of the three wicked gods. Spell card: "soul exchange" (the new one) lets you tribute summon (you tribute summon when the effect resolves without using your normal summon) any card using your oponents monsters. Egyptian god slime can summon any of the gods similarly to the egyptian counterparts. Using numeron is a quick and easy way to get enough tributes for the gods, and i did win more games than youd expect in gold rank.
I would love to see these cards get some new support, but I feel after the manga artist who created them left to make another vanguard I doubt Konami wants to acknowledge them anymore.
Okay this video is all well and good but can you think of somebody who can make a video based off of something special happening out of Yu-Gi-Oh Vrains?
So dumb question what about the 3 beast from Gx. A lot too their designs look closer to them especially matching their typings and kinda how they acted in the anime
3:34 True Eraser sucks. At least Osiris can be buffed with draw spells and cycle decks. Card of sanctity being an example, or any card that gives hand advantage, like dugares or literally any dark world combo. Eraser relie on your enemy having a fat combo board and not just negating your ass to the stone age
Though there is some interesting modern traps you can use to bolster its offensive abilities while simultaneously locking down your opponents board, such as Ojama trio or Nightmare Archfiends (though you run into the issue of Link monsters being means of getting rid of those nowadays.)
What about Exodia? I’m a yugioh newb but doesn’t he just win? Like even if your opponent had every negate active, Exodia is a ruling win, not an effect. So…he just wins everything
You are right that exodia can’t be negated (I have a video about that actually th-cam.com/video/Xqo2tM3h910/w-d-xo.html ) but the issue is how inconsistent it is to make him. 5 cards that do nothing by themselves in a 40 card deck means that you will have less possible cards to play with. It’s also that in modern day, playing exodia is just too inconsistent, it’s either win or bust.

The thing about the wicked gods is they gain their power from your opponent but the Egyptian gods they gain power from their owners

@@Monoanalysis or they were purposely "Disavowed" like how pegasus banned them in the manga

Avatar is a better counter since it still has 1 more attack.
@TheWhiteyOfDarkness Didn't Yugi use the fact that you can't above infinity to his advantage by having Obelisk and Avatar destroy each other.
Dreadroot could easily not have an effect and just be a 8k vanilla
