  • We all know the ace monsters of our favorite Yugioh series, whether it’s Dark Magician, Neos, Stardust Dragon, etc, but what about those monsters that fall right under them? We want to take a look at the best secondary signature monsters in Yugioh’s history. Sometimes, these are simply the number 2 guys that get used about as much as the ace monsters, while others may have even been the ace before a stronger monster came along. Helping me go through this robust array of monsters are Judgment Meter, Corgian, Sam from DungeonDiveBar, ProfOats, and SyzygySolo.

    I’d like to give Summoned Skull an honorable mention as one of Yugi’s secondary aces. This thing took out Weevil, helped take down Rare Hunter, was used to bring out Black Skull Dragon and for Spellbinding Circle baits, and almost took down Pegasus in EPISODE 2 (if it wasn’t for the lousy timer). It also was a part of his deck against the Pharaoh in their final duel so that Yugi would have a 2500 ATK point monster.

    • @Trekkie46
      @Trekkie46 ปีที่แล้ว +28

      ​@@dudono1744 Yes. He was meta because 1 tribute 2500 attack was good and unique for a while. All the other 1 tributes were 2400 like Jinzo and Luster Dragon. Moreso (if you played at school and such) the most common non-tributes were 1800 and the easiest equip was Malevolent Nuzzler which pushed up to 2500 meaning they would have to trade 2 cards for your 1 beatstick. So no matter how you look at it, Summoned Skull was good until the game got faster, roughly when Cyber Dragon came out.

    The best thing about Junk Warrior was also that Yusei ended the series with it. Not quasar dragon, shooting star dragon or any of the cards he got because he was a chosen one.
    It was Junk Warrior his dependable first Ace that also perfectly symbolizes his philosophy of using every card to its fullest extend.
    Not even weak cards are without purpose which is why Junk Warrior gets a power Boost from level 2 or less monsters
    It was so awesome to see Junk Warrior defeat Jacks Red Dragon Archfiend with a final Scrap Fist which not only won Yusei the duel but also inspired Scarlight Dragon Archfiends design of having his arm scarred. It was the same Arm that Junk Warrior busted up in their last confrontation

    you now, i never thought of Gearfried the Iron Knight as being even so much as Joey's tertiary ace monster, but thinking about it now, it seems to be his perfect secondary ace. He actually owned the card himself originally rather than taking from someone else, and he used him in major moments of the show. I recall him having a big role against weevil and finishing him off, and he was the monster that would have defeated Marik if not for the shadow realm.

      Joey's entire deck is about putting together a scappy mix of monsters he likes, usually warriors, and cards he's earned through his long journey as a duelist. I consider all the Battle City cards to be his secondary aces because they represent his character arc throughout the series.

      Tbf his deck was hot garbage. He lost Red Eyes and then in my headcanon I'd like to believe that Kaiba told him he couldn't keep using a fusion monsters (Flame Swordsman and Giltia the Knight) as a regular monsters. Basically he was the one character that desperately needed to improve his deck.
      Also I haven't watched the anime in a long time, BUT I do remember that Kaiba did show us a monster he won even though he didn't use it a duel. Basically they never showed him take it, but apparently Kaiba did grab Des Gardius from the rare hunters. He used it so he could go first in the 4 way duel vs Yugi, Joey and Marik, but then had to remove it from his deck since that was the rule... I confident I'm remembering that right, but not 100%.

    Honestly, it's a real shame that Jaden's "Flame Wingman" started appearing less and less by seasons 3 and 4, because that was the monster that got me into Yugioh personally. Even to this day I will still try to incorporate "Flame Wingman" in a HERO deck and I'll always find myself watching a duel with Flame Wingman over duels with Neos (not that I hated Neos at all, because I do find uses for him in non-Neos related HERO decks too).
    Though in terms of Jaden's second ace, you could make the argument that "Winged Kuriboh" could also have been counted as a secondary ace for Jaden alongside "Flame Wingman", similar to how Yugi had "Dark Magician Girl" and "Kuriboh", since Jaden used "Winged Kuriboh" a lot as well, and sadly suffered the same fate usage wise like "Flame Wingman" in the anime when it came to duels.

    In spite of having a higher attack power than Neos and Flame wingman, I'd say Edgeman (Blade Edge) was rather Jaden's secret ace that he never uses in pinched situations unless he has Wildman at the same time. That piercing damage effect of Edgeman can do a game changer in early times. So sad that the story didn't go much using him before Neos appeared and is only limited to fusing with Wildman (correct me if I'm wrong here)

    Yeah it sucks how Firewall Dragon was supposed to be Yusaku's primary ace monster but due to the fact that it got limited and later banned, Konami had no choice but to upgrade Decode Talker, which was Yusaku's secondary ace, into the main ace. But ironically enough now that Firewall got unbanned Konami started advertising it his ace monster again, so I guess he has 2 aces?

    Ironically, from what I've heard, crow wasn't even *supposed* to be a signer (or get black-winged dragon by extension); originally he was supposed to be a dark signer, but due to the popularity of the blackwing deck in the card game (partially due to crow), they changed the story to put a spotlight on the signature blackwing user

    Junk Warrior is the best secondary ace for me and in my mind is Yusei’s true ace. Stardust always felt a bit tacked on to me but JW represented him and his deck I feel, showed off Yusei’s strengths and just fit into his deck more naturally. It was also more unique to him and way more fun to watch. With Stardust, all he did with it (from what I remember) is either just boost it’s atk or upgrade it; he never did any cool strats with it or even use it’s effect that much. Watching him boost JW’s atk to like 4000 or something will never not be cooler and is something not just anyone can do. Anyone can put Stardust in their deck and have success with it: offensive decks, defensive decks, good duelists and bad duelists can all use it as effectively as Yusei, but not everyone can use JW like him.
    Plus it won him his very 1st duel in the series and was the last card in the series he played, which further cements it as being his ace to me

    With Shinning Neos Wingman released this year, you can get the best of both monsters. It feels a natural fusion to happen.
    With Vrains, I saw a very compelling argument on Tumblr, that Transcode Talker would be a good card to associate with Playmaker. He got it at the end of season 1 and used it at every season end in his duels.

      Jinzo and Gilford the Lightning more so than the other 2 if you ask me. Joey only played Insect Queen and Legendary Fisherman once when he dueled against Odion, most likely because they are meant to synergize with certain combos to get the most out of them, whereas Jinzo was much more splashable and had a much stronger effect for the time and got used a little even after Battle City as a result

    To me flame wingman will always be the main ace. Jaden didn't even get neos (back) until season 2. He wasn't using him for most of his life. Wingman looks cooler, sounds cooler, is a fusion monster which was the mechanic which Jaden focused on and they revamped during those years, it shows the strength in friends as you take two weak monsters and it becomes a great monster just like with the power of friendship you can do anything troupe that Jaden talks about all the time. Yeah neos can do that for a turn. We learned the heros as well learned about Jaden. Yeah neos and friends came in not even halfway through the series, but we already knew judai for so long at that point. Same way how it felt kinda weird how yugi out of nowhere starts using different cards than atem would have used. Like okay it makes sense and they are cool and all, but the entire time we knew you, you didn't use these

    I disagree with Kuriboh being Yugi's, it's definitely DMG or Slifer. Kuriboh is what we refer to as his "spirit monster", like Winged Kuriboh for Jaden. Not an ace, but a spirit.
