@TheLegendaryHungryWolf I meant more in long term. He did change for a while when he got Cyberdarks, but Zane fell back into his old habits in season 3. He was at his very best in season 2 where he utilized Cyber Dragons and Cyberdarks together. His heart problems were caused by Cyberdarks lashing out at him because he didn't want to use them and evolve even more. It is no coincidence that only cards Zane used when his heart attacks were at their very worst were solely Cyber Dragons. Throughout his duel with Yubel he only used his Cyber Dragons in a way that reminded Jaden of their graduation duel in season 1.

Zane is the most realistic depiction of a modern day Yugioh player. His journey can also help seen as an allegory for people trying to make it In the real world. When you don’t add on to your own perspective from what you see then you’ll never move forward nor prosper. He had a deck and strategy that he got away with for years. He had a slow strategy that was simple yet effective.Now when push comes to shove he learns all he believed in and his strategies was pointless. So he learned a new deck from the ground up and learn. A whole new strategy and seeing how you must advance quickly or you’ll get lost in the shuffle. Take whatever direction you can regardless if it’s good or bad to move forward(the GX eng sub does his character more Justice). He is in a way was the pioneer of the FTK/OTK along with Mill strategies.

@@LateNightStrawhat1 ok, so let me in short explain the scaling in Season 3 first, I will also include Johan.. Hell Kaiser>S3 Judai>=S3 Johan.. Judai fought Yubel three times and could never beat her. In the first duel Judai would have for sure lost if Johan didn't joined the duel. The two of them together barely managed to survive, Johan had to sacrifice himself to save Judai. In the 2nd duel, Judai had full knowledge about Yubel's advanced Crystal Beats and he still did worse than Kaiser (Kaiser knew nothing, especially because Yubel created her own op field spell, Kaiser also used his weakest deck). Judai even had Rainbow Dragon in his deck (Johan again basically had to help Judai). And yet, Yubel was playing with Judai, she predicted everything and easily achieved her goal (getting super polymerization). From that it is more than clear that S3 Kaiser is stronger than S3 Judai. And since S3 Johan is around S3 Judai level (arguably weaker), it is also clear that Kaiser is stronger than Johan.

@@LateNightStrawhat1 before the series, Z-ARC was the World Duel Champion, and he could hear the voices of his monsters, and other monsters. He cracked under the pressure and exploded, using his monsters to attack the audience that treated him like a circus animal. Because the audience wanted more brutal duels, and more violence, he gave it to them. But he was terrified of defeat. He was obsessed with victory. When all he wanted to be at first was a duelist who could connect with his opponents and their monsters, he became a world ending Calamity.

Prime Hell Kaiser is arguably the strongest in GX, many fans still don't understand how op he was while in prime (late S2 and early S3). Too bad they nerfed and ruined him by the end of S3 and in S4 so that Judai can shine. As I said, he is arguably the strongest in GX, he conquered the Dueling world in that era, only forced plot could beat him.
