@residentgrey

Жыл бұрын

I would also like to learn more about the signers.

As for why Supreme King revealed Hell Snipers immunity to Spells... Well, this might seem weird but it's actually implying that Haou respects O'Brien. This is more notable in the Sub version but when O'Brien returns to face Haou he's actually curious about why he came back to face him despite running away before and is actually more willing to argue with him than he ever was with Jim, obviously he dismissed him but that was more a "put your money where your mouth is" And this is shown during the duel, after Wild Cyclone does it's first attack, Haou tells O'Brien to get up and "show me that power that you have" after he is attacked by Volcanic Hammerer he is smirking, do note that Haou never smiles up til that point which means he was enjoying himself and later on he even tells O'Brien "For a person that has run away before you're actually pretty strong" and again, he's far nore willing to talk and argue with him than hr ever was with Jim, who he mostly ignored. So him telling him about Hell Snipers effect could be his own way to show his respect and keep having fun by not making him waste a move on something that won't work.

I wonder if they screened out KENN's acting to see if he could play the Supreme King prior to making it an arc or if his skill at voicing a character so different from the one he was initially cast as was a beneficial coincidence. Like for real, Judai was his first voice acting gig EVER, it's insane to see how talented he was (Yugioh actually has a pretty good track record with rookie VAs, Yuamu's is also someone who acts like someone with a few years of experience despite it being her only role at this point). Also it's neat to have Supreme King discard Fake Hero in the first Super Poly activation and Vicious Claw in the second. Like it's not as hugely symbolic but it's got a little bit of it. Probably helps that Fake Hero is a card pretty much made to turbo out Neos for a Contact Fusion.

I never actually considered the implications of Axel not holding back (beyond the standard 'he actually could've beat Jaden definitively in their first duel') but come to think of it yeah - if, back then, when Wildheart attacked, he'd activated Volcanic Force instead of Wild Fire, he'd have won this time. Good spot! Edit: It did just occur to me though, Axel would have been in a better position if the Supreme King _did_ know about Doomfire's effect. Malicious Edge doesn't attack Hammerer so Doomfire can't redirect it, Vicious Claw doesn't return to his hand so Hammerer doesn't get destroyed & Axel doesn't lose 600LP and to top it all off the Supreme King no longer has a card in hand to discard for Super Polymerization. Axel draws Volcanic Counter & uses Volcanic Cyclone to destroy Vicious Claw so Malicious Edge can now be destroyed in battle (which also sidesteps all the above since that stuff only applies when Vicious Claw is returned to hand to save a monster), then Axel enters his BP and wins because both cards the Supreme King had facedown, Super Polymerization & Evil Blast, are dead.

I would even like a trap card similar to D-Fusion for the Evil Heroes and a Signature Move card would be cool too for Malicious Fiend and Bane. I read a forum a while back where someone mentioned the idea of a Super Dark Fusion card that would be a Quick Play spell card. As for fusions, it would be cool to get an Evil Hero version of Mudball Man, which would have an effect that causes the opponent to only attack it, similar to Amazoness Tiger and if attacked, but not destroyed, the opponent takes some effect damage. I can go on and on with this. Most of the cards I can think of would just be Evil Hero counterparts to the current spell and traps cards we have for the HERO monsters.

This two duels are the most I've ever wanted to see, I love every aspect of the Supreme King and I thought his deck was so strong back then when I watched the anime. I find a bit bs that he draws the duel like that in the end, but I can see it as a plot scheme to bring Jaden back.

I just realized that the Supreme King could have won against Axel. Instead of using Evil Blast, he could have used Super Poly with Malicious Edge and the Evil Token during his last battle phase, and then attack Volcanic Doom Fire with Malicious Fiend. During which, Axel hasn’t discarded Volcanic Counter, so no tie

Man, that was actually pretty amazing. Your commentary about the duels made them even better. I'll always remember now how badass Axel was.

If Jim had a Level 6 Fossil Dragon Fusion monster in his Fusion deck, what name would you called it and what effect will you give it? Fossil Dragon Skullgoon (Level 6/Earth/Rock/Fusion Effect) ATK: 2700/DEF: 2100 Material(s): Rock-type + Level 5 or 6 monster from the opponent's GY Effect: - When this card attacks a monster(s), it gains 300 ATK points and also deals piercing damage to the opponent. - While this card is in the GY, banish it and select one face-up card on the field, negate its effect. If "Fossil Fusion" is in the GY, uses it effect twice. You can only use this card's effect once per turn.

Damn Jim's deck in that first duel is exactly what it feels like to try and play a deck in it's early days before Konami made any proper support for it. ie, playing toons before toon dark magician girl came out. Like he was playing such a nerfed version of the irl fossil deck holy cow.

i love these videos so much, the concentration and effort it must take to trace all the cards are extremely impressive!

This is still my absolute favourite segment in all of Yu-Gi-Oh, the entire Dark World arc is the best story the franchise has ever told and the Supreme King mini-arc is the best part of it.

Was I the only one expecting Jim to activate the Seal of Orichalcos out of nowhere during this arc? Given the lore, I'm pretty sure he technically could due to his eye if he had the card. That would be one insane twist.

I noticed that during the duel between axol and the supreme king, that the supreme king has Evil Hero Malicious Edge in his hand, but wasn't revealed from the card in his hand, and/or draw from the deck.

The Supreme King was such an awesome character and Evil Heroes such a fantastic archetype. Its a shame we didn't really see either beyond these two duels (Supreme King sort of came back in the Yubel duel but it didn't feel as cool as here)

I absolutely love the Evil Hero archetype. It's my favourite sub-archetype of the Heroes. I really wish Konami would make more support for it.

Know what I think I know why supreme king didn’t keep sniper’s immunity secret supreme king is the embodiment of order and control pushed to perfection so of course when he’s able to predict what his opponent will do he will tell them early it is futile.

Not necessarily related to the video but when i was watching GX for the first time ever the tonal whiplash that occurred during season 3 was so jarring for me. Like i was legitimately shook when bodies began dropping half way through and the match where jaidens friends were sacrificed had me contemplating whether this was ever a kids show to begin with. Shit was dope though looking back. Its the type of feeling you rarely get from shows these days with the by the book nature of everything.

I mean, Season 3 had some brutal stuff even before the halfway mark.

Jim and Axel were two amazing charachters that I loved watching as much as Jessie. Season 3 is sadly the most guilty of sideling pretty much everyone who's not Jaden for the new charachters and I actually do think Syrus should've been involved in this attempt to save Jayden but I still loved it from the writing to all the stuff we learn about Jaden and Yubel. Plus their duels with the supereme king were tension filled and made for a unique challenge. After all Jaden's the protagnist who rarely loses in the show, to save him they had to beat him and so it's fitting it was'nt an easy task to do.

2 of my favorite duels of the entire Yugioh franchise ❤

Great video, so glad you are covering these duels. These are some of my favourites. It also gives some much needed shine on the side characters.

15:52 Weeeeeeeeell technically super poly can be negated by floating negations, like imperial order, or negates that do not get added onto the chain, like magician’s right hand.

I wish we got to see more of the supreme king. He should have had his own season as the villain not a mini arc as good as it was.

I see it as basically the same thing as how bastion briefly returns to help Jaden speedrun his way through his depression. It was certainly very rushed because they were working with very limited time(Which wouldn't have been the case if they didn't make the desert world-arc take longer than it really needed to, but whatever), but they did very well with those limitations.

This episode is why I have trust issues with irl yugioh rulings. You can't activate volcanic counter to draw irl :c

I must thank you for these videos. There are many Seasons that I wasn't able to see if it was because of not being released in my country, not shown or I just did not have time to watch them. So these videos are not just a throwback to my childhood, but it shows a lot more that I never saw before. Thanks for that.

The most unrealsitic thing in all of Yu-Gi-Oh is seeing Jaden able to pick up his unsleaved cards whilst wearing armoured gauntlets

Hell yeah! best ygo content on yt is back for more! Great job as usual Sam.

Ain't nothing better than playing yugioh and getting a tgc anime video

1) We needs more main deck Evil Heroes (evil version of the vanilla heroes with effects themed after their support cards) 2) We need Evil counterpart to the HERO cards 3) We need Cyrus to bite the dust so Darkness Super Polymerization can be a thing. And while we're at it, other Dark Gaia like fusion monsters that use Machines, Dragon, Plant, Thunder, Psychic, Cyberse, Spellcaster, Zombie, Beast, Dinosaur, Beast-Warrior, Winged Beast, Fire and Water. 4) More Volcanics (let them be a/the defacto main deck fire archtype - more fire monsters in general are needed) 5) Yubel , the Hero Kids, Winged Kuriboh, Wroughtweiler, Dark Blade, Sonic Duck, Guardian Baou, Garma Sword, King of Yamimakai, Vampire Lord should become a Link support for the Evil Heroes; And see what can be done with the rest of the Supreme Kings army.

Boy Konami REALLY buffed Fossil Dino irl. If it had the anime effects, it probably never would have seen the light of day.

Yay, I always thought these duels should be analyzed

You could make the argument for The Supreme King going for Infernal Wing due to Jaiden being part of him as he'd normally go for Flame Wingman when the materials are available.

I really wish we had seen more of the supreme king, even though I like Jaden’s character more, just because he was such a strong villain. Wish it would have taken a few more duels to bring him down

I wish literally anyone except one of the new characters was the one to beat him. And a level further, Axel was probably the most obnoxious of the new characters because it was obvious how hard the writers were trying to force him.

Jim vs the Supreme King is one of my all-time favorite Duels from the Yu-Gi-Oh series in general. Both Decks are ones I enjoy so seeing them go back and forth like this was epic. Axel's Duel with the Supreme King was also pretty fun too, once again the back and forth was pretty good between the two Duelists. I feel most of the last season 3 GX Duels had some really good back and forth showing all the Duelists as close to each other and very competently skilled. However, I do wish we got to see what happened in those two Off-Screen Duels that happened during Axel vs the Supreme King, that being Zane vs Chaos Sorcerer, and Aster vs Skilled Dark Magician and Skilled White Magician. I always like to imagine how those Duels went to get to where we were at the end when we saw them finish. Also, on a side note, I've used both Jim's and Axel's Decks on YGOPRO and EDOPRO before and I can tell you Half Life and Volcanic Counter don't work like they did in the anime. Half Life's effect activates before damage calculation, so if it worked this way in this Duel then Infernal Wing would have lost points before the first attack hit, thus with two attacks Jim would have dealt 2700 damage and dropped the Supreme King to just 800 LP, so if that did happen then when Giga attacks on the second to last turn Jim would have won. As for Volcanic Counter, I tried to use it for a Shay(Shun) vs Axel Duel once to end it in a draw, but it didn't work, because its effect can't activate when you're LP drops to zero for some reason. So I guess you could consider the way these two cards work in these Duels as illegal moves.

I think that it was a shame that they didn't give the supreme king even more episodes then they gave him. Acutely, the supreme king could have had his own awesome arc.

Could team Taiyo have beaten Team 5d's? a duel that sadly didnt get a translation, but its handsdown a personal favorite. the opponents mostly have old era vanilla monsters and really cheap trap cards. however they they pull off a ridiculous summoning which makes it very entertaining. Id love if you could cover this duel, but i understand if its a low priority, sinceits a long 3 vs 3 duel.

I would love to see that as well

I remember that bloody Solo Gate in SP Challenge 2 where you had to take on the Supreme King with a combined Jim & Axel Deck, what a pain in the arse that was, let me tell you! He seemed to be able to get two Malicious Bane out every time! I did it, though, I persevered and bloody well did it! Funnily enough, thanks to those Legendary Duelist Season 3 boxes, in my course to get all the Promo Cards, I now have nearly a playset of all Evil HERO cards! And I think it worked as well, with Supreme King Jaden, that cold indifference, a stark contrast to the psychotic and seemingly increasingly twisted Melvin at Battle City! Jaden IS the Supreme King! There is no other! Nobody else carries that title! That poser? He's an imposter, he is NOT the Supreme King, he has no right to call himself such! Also, I wonder how long it's been since Volcanics got some support...? If only someone could tell us...

Not having watched this part of GX proper, and only having tertiary experience with these features characters, these were for sure some interesting duels. I especially note how the one with Jim does that thing a “side character vs. villain” duel does, where by when backed into a corner the villain whips out/top decks their ace card and basically gives us a preview of it before its big showing next duel. We see this later in the season with Yubel using herself to stop Adrien winning with Exodia (and also Grinder Golem, whose effect is three threatened against Jaden later even if it doesn’t end up being used). Here, it’s extra impactful because of the plot significance and intensity Super Polymerization has already had, what with being made by sacrificing Jaden’s friends and bringing out the Supreme King in the first place. Intense, plot-driven stuff. I like it! Though, as great as the Axel duel was, that “Clayman in grave now instead of Avian or Wildheart” error… yessh. Even weirder in that we hardly ever get errors like that this deep into the various Yugioh animes. Very odd!

I wished we could off seen what Neos looked like if he was evil but at least it gives Bladedege screen time for Season 3 unlike Season 2. Yeah I know he is Malicious Edge but still and the return off Rampart Blaster Infernal Sniper last time used was against Zane Season 1 Finale. But Honestly I wished it was Syrus who saved Jaden and made him lose. as it would mark how much respect Syrus has for Jaden and see how much they were building for this big showdown.

Great video! Two of my fav duels from GX with 2 of some of my fav side characters in all yugioh, cant wait for whatever duel comes next!

KEEP THESE UP, Me and My girl literally look forward to binge these.

What I think you made a mistake, when did the Supreme King draw malicious edge. His opening hand had Avian, Wildheart, Clayman, dark fusion, dark calling, and evil blast. Next turn draws vicious claw, then burstinatrix, then evil hero internal prodigy. 23:20

Bruh the idea of the Fossil monsters having their era in their name is such a cool idea for design space Theres type based support for Rock/Dino, then you can have "Fossil" support that works for all the monsters, then more specific support for the different eras. It could sort of be like the LV monsters since theres "upgrading" the monsters

12:33 , Funnily, in the English Dub, Jim really loudly says 'It's your Choice!' as for who to summon

YES MORE SUPREME KING CONTENT I LOVE HIM

7:45 Fun fact: in the Tag Force games, where Jim's Deck did actually exist (not the same effects as what got eventually printed in the TCG), the names of the Fusions actually do follow the [Cenozoic/Mesozoic/Paleozoic] naming convention, even outside of Japan. Edit: 21:42 he explains Infernal Sniper's immunity because he wants to crush Axel's hope & fill him with panic & terror like he did with Jim before killing him. He basically said 'you know your go-to out to powerful monsters, the cornerstone of your whole strategy? Yeah that's completely useless against this card so I hope you've got a backup plan or you'll (ironically) burn to death lmao'

20:19 that was pretty cool that the card was getting made as you made this video! Pyro recovery!

We know ya love the Supreme King, Sam. It's just like your Zane Truesdale crush lol

Axel is most underrated character in GX

Amazing

OMG Yes! I'v been posting for this duel for like the last 8 videos! So happy to see it! Awesome my dude!

I would say the Supreme King not going for Lightning Golem first is still kind of a misplay. It could’ve popped shell knight and then attacked. Overall more damage and clears the shell knight in case the backrow would’ve stopped him.

Do yusi vs zone please

Was Axel about to win? What made him lose was a battle-counter when he could have just not attacked and won to his opponent self-burning with the boss monster. So I'd say yes.

Also that duel disk needs to be inspected since the Supreme King started with Avian in his hand twice in a row.

Ooh another GX what if duel! They might be my favorite! Thanks for making this!

I think I know why the Supreme King told Axel the protection effect. Its one part "fair play" since this is while Jaden was begining to come out, the other the supreme king's villainous MO, basically crushing an opponent and backing them into a corner, showing that no matter what they do, they will fail. So by telling Axel this, he is basically saying, "I am so powerful I can counter literally everyplay you make"

The supreme king should be thanking the gods dark fusion unbricked his hand.

The Supreme King duels are so good. Gentle Darkness is the best way to describe how he acts as well, so calm yet so terrifying. Loving these videos, Would be interested to see a Duel Analysis on Kite vs Vetrix from Zexal. Since that's the only duel that Kite fully lost in Zexal, curious if there was a way he could've kept that loss count at 0.

This kinda reminded me of a scene in the gx manga. Where we see that duelists can use duel disks to see the effects of their opponents monsters and spells freely, and ironically when jaden tries to use it on the main villains boss monster it’s directly blurred out from view so he can’t see it anyways

The only reason The Supreme King could summon Dark Gaia was because he & jim were dueling infront of his castle, otherwise Super Poly couldn't bring out Dark Gaia (i choose to believe this is the case)
