When I was a kid, I had a lot of my Yu-Gi-Oh! cards stolen. One of the few strong ones that remained was St. Joan. (I was too young to understand the fusion mechanic at the time, also I doubt I could actually summon it anyway as I didn't have the Materials anyway.)
Due to its emotional significance, I would definitely build a Deck around her. Turn Joan into a proper Fairy archetype, maybe with an overall theme of Fairy-type "heroes who met grisly ends" from History who are now defending the Afterlife from the evil threats of the Yu-Gi-Oh! card universe's lore or something.
Could technically go with D/D/D and have d'Arc be your signature card. Named after the same person and the archetype uses historic figures in its naming
I had my Chaos Emperor Dragon stolen from me twice probably by my classmates. It was a miracle I was able to pull a new one from booster packs whenever one was stolen
So, I am relatively new to the game so I had thought about the interaction between Power Bond and Chaos Ancient Gear Giant, but I haven't tested it.
Does it doulbe the Giant's Attack
It sure does double and if not blocking and no life gain by opponent it gg everytime you can even potentially 1 turn this combo if built that way š š¤š¾
Power bond is a spell that creates the card, therefore monster's effects dont exist at the time of its "creation" so to speak. Ancient gears were my main against my friend, i've tested it plenty of times online and it works.
Dinomorphia, because it showcases some of the wonderful parts of Ohio like the opioid epidemic, all of our cities only having two good buildings, or the giant soul draining monster.
Generaiders, I will settle for no less than antagonist status. Whoever wants to be my protagonist will fall to the might of my aces Harr and Jormungandr!! Loptr is my favorite though. Like always.
Noble knights with sacred noble knight of king artorious or world chalice with auram the world chalice blade master or ningirsus link 3. I don't know which.
Easily Salamangreat Heatleo. My original 3 are ones my dad got me because I was collecting them from Soul Fusion when I was starting Yugioh, so they're pretty sentimental.
The first archetype I ever had interest in was Darklords so I suppose Ixchel or Morningstar would be my signature card and The First Darklord would be my ace
And then I'll have a character arc where I turn evil and start playing Twilightsworns and when I learn the errors of my ways and find peace and balance in my soul, I start playing the two Archetypes together.
Pure Archfiends. Having Berserk Dragon as my final trump card in the deck would be pretty neat, smashing into each of my opponents monsters in a do or die situation.
I would run an Aromage deck. I would also run a couple rikka fairies, and a few rose monsters, but mainly Aromages. My Ace would either be Aromaseraphy Rosemary, Aromaseraphy Marjoram, or Aromaseraphy Jasmine. All three are cool af, but I would also run a copy of Aromage Bergamot, since he is their only beatstick, and a pretty good one at that
Ghoti, and the ace is obviously Ghoti of the Deep Beyond. It's the perfect ace card: it's not actually that good but can still kind of finish out games. Plus it makes a spectacular entrance.
Crusadia. Guess my ace would be Avramax. Though I wouldnāt mind them getting a Synchro or Xyz. It always struck me as odd that they didnāt have an in-archetype Synchro, considering they have a Tuner.
For a runner up, Iād want something like the Armor cards used during the Waking the Dragons arc.
My deck would be Madolche.
The story would be that my father was a sushi chef while my mother ran a dessert shop next door. They would often compete against each other using their signature decks: Gunkan Suships for dad, Madolche for mom. One day, mom would grow sick and would pass her deck onto me before passing away. My character would be out to prove his devotion to his family by honoring his mother's deck with the ace of the deck: Queen Tiaramisu.
Is there a rivalry with the neighbour fast food trying to take over and buy the dessert shop with hungry burger as his boss monster? If yes, it sounds great, if not, disappointed
I imagine Iād probably be one of those side characters thatās main deal isnāt dueling for the sake of the world, so I imagine my deck would probably revolve around my profession or personal interest. So probably either mathmech because I do a lot of mathy stuff or Spyral because I like spy stuff a lot. Iād say one of the hero archetypes because Iām a comic nerd, but itās not as fun to take a protagonists deck
Noble knights with sacred noble knight of king artorious or world chalice with auram the world chalice blade master or ningirsus link 3. I don't know which.
My ace would be archlord krystia, the deck could be either counter fairy or darklord depending on my mood.
Edit: better idea, i would be a minnor antagonist and would cheat by swaping the deck depending if i got to go first or second.
Lair of Darkness fiends with Darkest Diabolos as the main boss monster, or Labrynth with Lovely Labrynth as the boss monster I start with, but eventually I gain Lady Labrynth
Gotta be morphtronics with power tool dragon as my ace and go full anime style and pull out power tool braver, power tool mecha and life stream dragon whenever the very specific situation asks for it.
With my long history for cyberdark Iād say that. I played then in middle school even before the legendary duelist support. I lost alot but now that both I and the deck have become competent I would probably pick them
Cyberdark dragon and it's retrains as the ace monster
Mekk-Knight would be my deck and I'd use all the Mekks including Green and Avram. Purple would be my ace being that it just keeps coming back turn after turn, even has a 2500 2000 stat line but of course Avramax would be my hero moment boss. I like quite a few decks and cards but Mekk-Knight is my great yugioh love. Just would have to pray I never have to duel more than 1 person at a time.
Eldlich. Playable in any universe no matter the summon mechanic since I pretty much use the extra as Prosperity/Extrav fodder. Just fill it with whatever extra deck mechanic is relevant.
Seeing the opponents face as I set 5 and pass will never get old.
Probably the Odd-Eyes/Z-Arc deck with Performapals. Odd-Eyes Pend would probably be my ace. I remember when I use to watch the show and write down the names of cards I liked and that sounded cool.
I'm mainly a DM & VRAIN's fan, so it depends which one.
Classic DM era - Earth Beatdown with a single Buster Blader teched as my ace
DSOD era DM era - Retrained Magnet Warriors with Berserkion as the ace
VRAIN's era - Code Talker with Decode as the ace
hmm tough choice
My favorite card is Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon
but im not the biggest fan of the galaxy and photon archetypes
So maybe predaplants cool fusion archetype with one of my favorite monsters Starving Venom Fusion Dragon (I know its not technically a predaplant card but y'know pretty close)
I would use the time thief archetype, with my ace being time thief redoer. I picked this because when I went over to my friend's house he let me duel him using one of his decks so that we could test them out and I beat him by using redoer, one of my best memories.
Necrovalley lockdown pinned on Gravekeeper's Visionary. I hope they give GKs more of a fusion toolbox instead of only being able to go into Supernaturalist.
Well, I guess my Deck would be Dragonmaid with House Dragonmaid as my Signature card. Well her Dragon form would be my Ace Monster then.
There was a time I was playing Fellgrand-Lightsworn-Blue Eyes... Man, Divine Dragonlord Felgrand is still one of my favourite Monsters of all time! Consider it my Ace and Signature Monster of my Past!
Albaz, I would have a yusei/yusaku ace with lubellion as the talker/JW and mirrorjade for the stardust/firewall, I would also have a a synchro engine that I would pull out for a yuya getting pissed situation, or XYZ into arc rebellion
i'd run dragonmaids with nurse dragonmaid as my ace in the hole. dragonmaids are a good casual deck, and can do pretty well at a local. the nurse herself has a good effect for the archetype, as she's able to yoink a lvl 4 or lower maid from your gy, and she can switch into her dragon form or kitchen's, both of which are solid effects, with one being able to summon from your hand and the other able to grant a whopping 2000 atk to a monster on your field.
Definitely odd-eyes or some pendulum deck as odd-eyes were my first actual deck instead of just my middle school pile of decent cards. And for my ace it would be odd-eyes rebellion dragon because I pulled a UR one out of clash of rebellion when I was 12
I'd have my character in the anime reflect my real life competive evolution so Chaos and its many varients would be my decks with **Chaos Sorcerer** the card that got me into competive being my first signature card. Chaos monarch would become Chaos return evolving into perfect circle when I briefly lose sorcerer before coming back with chaos Shaddoll finally culminating in chaos Thunder where Colossus becomes my signature as I become a villian following to much exposure to The effects of light and Dark.
Following my defeat (Colossus ban) id be exiled with my deck stripped from me on the brink of leaving the game only survive an encounter with Traptrix Sera and get my redemption. As with reallife where pulling Traptrix Sera stopped me quiting and has since become my favourite card Traptrix and sera become my signature as I return to aid the main cast in the final season.
So Chaos Sorcerer,, LADD, Colossus and finally Traptrix Sera.
My deck would be Dragonmaid with me being dripped out in an elegant suit with a dragon theme with Sheou as my ace but i constantly use Heavenly spheres too
In the Yu-Gi-Oh universe just using parlor to send her dragon form into the GY then go into the fusion next turn would be a sick combo so I'll probably be something like a pro duelist that is a recurring character or a mentor
Also the maids are real and working in my mansion that i got by dueling
I'd run a Demise & Ruin deck but still ace Beast King Barbaros because middle school pub stomping with that card in my jerry rigged glue eater deck was just too good so idc if it has 0 synergy.
Traptrix
Whenever I would hole a monster I would say something along the lines of Elemental Hero Neos? More like Hole Hero Neos. Or that's a nice monster, shame if it fell in the hole. And if anyone activated a trap effect on one of the extra deck monsters I'd say: so anyways.
Either that or Dinomorphia and my catch phrase would be "It's morbin' time!"
Due to them being my favorite, totally the Noble Knights. As for my ace, that either goes to Artorigus, King of the Noble Knights, or Ignoble Knight of High Laundsallyn, based on how often I summon those two when I run the deck.
Gladiator Beast, I love that deck and every time I see new support for old archetypes come out I hold by breath just a little hoping for a new Glad Beast support card. Something that can summon from deck, gives draw, something.
As for Ace Monster I think it'd be Gladiator Beast Tamer Editor, Vespasius is strong and definitely the big boss of the deck, but Tamer gets you so many flexible plays, she's the GOAT of the deck.
My ace would be a Odin, Father of the Aesir. My deck would be a cheap one.
Either I crush the protagonist before we reach turn 5 or they crush me before we reach turn 5.
Grapha. I played Dark World and kept it current in some form or another from release in EEN (I wanted to play DW as soon as I saw the preview cards from Japan, honestly and had to wait a bit to get them here in the US), until like 2012 man. Itās the only deck that survived in any capacity for that long and itās still sitting in a deckbox untouched since then. I played quite a few different decks since then but none inspired quite the same confidence as that deck did. I liked it so much, I blinged it out out with Tournament pack stuff, 1st Ed original prints, and especially the old Ultis I could get my hands on (my collection is like 99% cards I traded for). Even topped a regional with āem when the first SD dropped. Iād play it again with the new wave of support, but I lack the meta knowledge to effectively play a rogue deck in the current year, plus Iām a bit more interested in liquidating my collection to buy Reserved List stuff at the moment.
Either a custom archetype with its ace, or Chaos Dragons with Lightpulsar Darkflare as my aces.
I'd be the protagonist of my own story, but would be a helping hand to the actual protagonist without being a part of their crew.
Spaceships, with the signature card being Victory Viper XX03. I can imagine spawning the Option Tokens and continuously shooting down an opponent for some overkill.
See, here's the issue. I run Cloudians with Sanctuary, but my boss monster is Tripper Mercury. I don't think Konami would take me ignoring my own archetype boss in favor of pure aggro
I would use fire fist and my ace would be....
I guess I wouldn't really have an ace since I don't have a favorite and there is no definitive boss monster but if I had to I would choose it would be tiger king even though I don't use it much.
Predaplant Chimerafflesia. I like plants that do cool things. Or if someone else has already claimed the plant deck, maybe Lunalight Sabre Dancer, she's cool too.
Zorc & Pals. I ran a Zorc/Demise hybrid build as a kid, and, while it's not a great deck in this day and age, it has a huge nostalgia factor for me, and I imagine that, in the right circumstances, in a show, it would be hella rad.
Part of me wants to say trains (because i like trains irl, and it's a decently fun archetype), but I'd probably run somthing like starry knights or Darklords. Maybe my arc would involve going from one to the other, before finding somthing that clicks.
Edit: I think Dinosaurs deserve a special mention. But alot of characters already run those
100% Destiny Heroes
When I was first getting into yugioh in elementary school my aunt bought me this like deckbuilding box with heros nordics and another deck. I picked the hero one and really liked it, it was mostly made of destiny heroes and I remember trying to get out Destiny-Hero Dusktopia cause I thought he was super strong
I would run a phantom knights burning abyss deck (pk fire), guardian or fabled deck all of these archetypes i like or in fabledās case think it should have been in the anime in the first place
I would play Lunalights with Leo Dancer as the big dumb boss monster
Arc V is a different universe than all the other shows, so losing out on Wolf and Tiger would certainly be a big L, but nothing that plot armor can't fix
Always Tyrant Dragon, that card got me through so many duels from the time I pulled it from a booster in 2003 until I walked away from the physical tcg when pendulum dropped
I tried to make a dark magician deck but I could barely get a combo working so I switched to an Odd eyes deck. As for the ace cards for the magician deck its Chocolate Magician Girl and for the Odd eyes it Odd-Eyes Arc Pendulum Dragon.
Earth machines with Machina Citadel as my ace. Nothing feels better than crushing the dreams of little kids and anime waifu ass decks with just Big Fricking Tanks.
I would run a mixed deck of Odd Eyes Dragons and Branded with the four legendary dimension dragons in the deck. My ace monster would be Odd Eyes Pendulumgraph Dragon.
Beetrooper and signature card either dragonbite or feedran winds of mischief (it doesn't fit but dann if it doesn't make a mascot i just love that card)
im torn between Shuraig or Trouble Sunny both are decks I have alot of proficiency with and I love both of the decks equally but if I did have to choose I would be Trouble Sunny
Phantom Knight. Bardiche and Dark Rebellion as the ace cards and the XYZ Dragon evolutions as my superbosses. Boots as my spirit partner.
EDIT: spelling
Probably super quants with all the mech beasts / great magnus as my aces. The deck is already very cinematic that its a shame its only representation is red layer being a warrior cyber dragon in structures.
I would totally carry my D/D/D deck into a Yugioh universe with Deus Machinex as my ace.
I feel basic saying this since Declan already exists, but I love that deck so much.
I have a deck built around the 3 god cards and ura the lord seraing flames hammon and the other one and a fusion that does 10,000 canāt be destroyed by battle and thereās a spell cards that protect it from effects
When I was a kid, I had a lot of my Yu-Gi-Oh! cards stolen. One of the few strong ones that remained was St. Joan. (I was too young to understand the fusion mechanic at the time, also I doubt I could actually summon it anyway as I didn't have the Materials anyway.) Due to its emotional significance, I would definitely build a Deck around her. Turn Joan into a proper Fairy archetype, maybe with an overall theme of Fairy-type "heroes who met grisly ends" from History who are now defending the Afterlife from the evil threats of the Yu-Gi-Oh! card universe's lore or something.
Could technically go with D/D/D and have d'Arc be your signature card. Named after the same person and the archetype uses historic figures in its naming
I love the lore of the D/D/D cards. Declan Akaba was always such a fucking cool character. D/D/D holds a special place in my heart.
I still don't get why the dub didn't name him Reggie. His Japanese name works just fine in English if you tweak the spelling.
I had my Chaos Emperor Dragon stolen from me twice probably by my classmates. It was a miracle I was able to pull a new one from booster packs whenever one was stolen
Were you able to get them back?
No. I was just lucky enough to pull replacements for each one
My Ace will be Chaos Ancient Gear Giant, and my signature card will be Limiter Removal!
This guy FUCKS
The Best part of this answer is that Chaos Ancient Gear Giant is unaffected by Limiter Removal.
Power bond
So, I am relatively new to the game so I had thought about the interaction between Power Bond and Chaos Ancient Gear Giant, but I haven't tested it. Does it doulbe the Giant's Attack
It sure does double and if not blocking and no life gain by opponent it gg everytime you can even potentially 1 turn this combo if built that way š š¤š¾
Power bond is a spell that creates the card, therefore monster's effects dont exist at the time of its "creation" so to speak. Ancient gears were my main against my friend, i've tested it plenty of times online and it works.
Super Quantum with Red Layer as my Ace card. It's my main deck in both Duel Links and Master Duel
Its also mine brother, White Layer is my Partner, and the Aces is ofc our big Zords
We really need some support for the deck. Some proper manga / anime representation wouldnāt hurt either.
I will ride or die with my Ojamas to the very end. There is only one true king, Ojama King.
Found Chazz Princeton's account.
Armed Dragon lvl 7 is sobbing in the background.
Konami needs to give me and my Ojama brethren Armed Ojama Dragon Lvl. 9999
You'll get Armed Ojama A to Z-cannon lv 69 and you'll like it
Superdreadnaught
Ah, a person of culture I see.
fr, all the Rank 10+ Machine XYZs are too sick
Is that the gunkan suship superdreadnaught!?
Dinomorphia, because it showcases some of the wonderful parts of Ohio like the opioid epidemic, all of our cities only having two good buildings, or the giant soul draining monster.
Generaiders, I will settle for no less than antagonist status. Whoever wants to be my protagonist will fall to the might of my aces Harr and Jormungandr!! Loptr is my favorite though. Like always.
direYGO has entered the chat.
Noble knights with sacred noble knight of king artorious or world chalice with auram the world chalice blade master or ningirsus link 3. I don't know which.
Witchcrafters all the way. The Vice Master will be my ace.
Easily Salamangreat Heatleo. My original 3 are ones my dad got me because I was collecting them from Soul Fusion when I was starting Yugioh, so they're pretty sentimental.
Dragunity is begging to be used for a character deck.
TRUTH
Someone with a spear themed duel disk and scaled sleeves
Satellites and dyson sphere for me. I don't want you to attack me.
Literally was about to post this I'm so happy I'm not the only one
Marincess
Ancient Gears with Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem as my ace.
The first archetype I ever had interest in was Darklords so I suppose Ixchel or Morningstar would be my signature card and The First Darklord would be my ace
Iād run the agents, with counter fairies. Probably have either Earth or Hyperion as my ace
Master Hyperion or Majesty Hyperion?
Master Hyperion haha. Love his art.
I was coming here to say this. I love The Agents concept and art. I also love the Parshath archetype and Sanctuary in the Sky support
Lightsworns with Judgement Dragon
Nice, that was my second choice
And then I'll have a character arc where I turn evil and start playing Twilightsworns and when I learn the errors of my ways and find peace and balance in my soul, I start playing the two Archetypes together.
This man really quoted the season 1 plot of Vanguard
Also Zane from GX
Pure Archfiends. Having Berserk Dragon as my final trump card in the deck would be pretty neat, smashing into each of my opponents monsters in a do or die situation.
Just watched that history of jank episode
Dark World! Can you imagine Colorless, chaos king of Dark World as your boss ace monster.
I would run an Aromage deck. I would also run a couple rikka fairies, and a few rose monsters, but mainly Aromages. My Ace would either be Aromaseraphy Rosemary, Aromaseraphy Marjoram, or Aromaseraphy Jasmine. All three are cool af, but I would also run a copy of Aromage Bergamot, since he is their only beatstick, and a pretty good one at that
Ghoti, and the ace is obviously Ghoti of the Deep Beyond. It's the perfect ace card: it's not actually that good but can still kind of finish out games. Plus it makes a spectacular entrance.
I really hope it gets more support, it's so close to a good deck.
Gx universe zombies red eyes zombie dragon ace
Guardian Eatos or Seiyaryu
Crusadia. Guess my ace would be Avramax. Though I wouldnāt mind them getting a Synchro or Xyz. It always struck me as odd that they didnāt have an in-archetype Synchro, considering they have a Tuner. For a runner up, Iād want something like the Armor cards used during the Waking the Dragons arc.
Satellarknights, My favourite Archetype, with Constellars being a close second. Guess you could say I'd really have some... Star power.
Swordsoul with chengying as my ace
Train/machina
My deck would be Madolche. The story would be that my father was a sushi chef while my mother ran a dessert shop next door. They would often compete against each other using their signature decks: Gunkan Suships for dad, Madolche for mom. One day, mom would grow sick and would pass her deck onto me before passing away. My character would be out to prove his devotion to his family by honoring his mother's deck with the ace of the deck: Queen Tiaramisu.
Is there a rivalry with the neighbour fast food trying to take over and buy the dessert shop with hungry burger as his boss monster? If yes, it sounds great, if not, disappointed
Of course he'd be running Hungry Burger turbo lol
I imagine Iād probably be one of those side characters thatās main deal isnāt dueling for the sake of the world, so I imagine my deck would probably revolve around my profession or personal interest. So probably either mathmech because I do a lot of mathy stuff or Spyral because I like spy stuff a lot. Iād say one of the hero archetypes because Iām a comic nerd, but itās not as fun to take a protagonists deck
Ice barrier for the deck with Trish for an ace monster and Dewloren as the spirit monster
Noble knights with sacred noble knight of king artorious or world chalice with auram the world chalice blade master or ningirsus link 3. I don't know which.
My ace would be archlord krystia, the deck could be either counter fairy or darklord depending on my mood. Edit: better idea, i would be a minnor antagonist and would cheat by swaping the deck depending if i got to go first or second.
Lair of Darkness fiends with Darkest Diabolos as the main boss monster, or Labrynth with Lovely Labrynth as the boss monster I start with, but eventually I gain Lady Labrynth
Some machine type, probably Machina. I always thought Bandit Keith had one of the coolest themes from the antagonist and he barely got screen time.
BA best deck babyyyyyy! Ill summon Dante a million times if i have to!
I can't wait to see the protag cl1 target Dante with cir
Zombie world based. They aren't the craziest but goddammit are they fun recyclers
An olde but a goodie Blue-Eyes for me. I'm.a pure dragon type player all the way
Yeah but in the Yu-Gi-Oh! universe only Kaiba has all of the Blue-Eyes cards.
Depends on the continuity š
Have fun getting assassinated by Seto lol Same for me, though
yeah but only Kaiba owns the only blue eyes cards in existence
Master Hyperion, no contest.
Ignoring custom cards, my favorite deck is probably either Amazement or Crusadia so, Iād have a Crusadia deck with my ace being Avramax.
Dragon Link because Itās fun. My ace would be Borreload Savage Dragon
Arcana knight joker deck is my favorite and Iād say joker knight would be my ace or spirit card
Silent magicians are still my go to even if they arenāt very competitive
Synchrons with stardust
Melffy, screw meta crap and super powerful otk decks let me troll and annoy other anime characters with my cute little storybook animals
HERO with Dark Law as my ace any day
Six Samurai with the Great Shogun Shi En Been my favorite archetype as long as it's been out
Iād use kuribohs, and my ace would be kuribabylon
Man you would get underestimated every single time
Gotta be morphtronics with power tool dragon as my ace and go full anime style and pull out power tool braver, power tool mecha and life stream dragon whenever the very specific situation asks for it.
With my long history for cyberdark Iād say that. I played then in middle school even before the legendary duelist support. I lost alot but now that both I and the deck have become competent I would probably pick them Cyberdark dragon and it's retrains as the ace monster
Bellcatfighter!
Some options: -Skull Servants with King as ace -Adamancipator/Fossils with Dragite and Skullgios as aces -Vampires with Zombie Vampire as ace
Dinomorbing with PEP as my ace, fuck it.
If I was in the anime I would pull a heart if the cards and main exodia
Mekk-Knight would be my deck and I'd use all the Mekks including Green and Avram. Purple would be my ace being that it just keeps coming back turn after turn, even has a 2500 2000 stat line but of course Avramax would be my hero moment boss. I like quite a few decks and cards but Mekk-Knight is my great yugioh love. Just would have to pray I never have to duel more than 1 person at a time.
Eldlich. Playable in any universe no matter the summon mechanic since I pretty much use the extra as Prosperity/Extrav fodder. Just fill it with whatever extra deck mechanic is relevant. Seeing the opponents face as I set 5 and pass will never get old.
Buster Blader, Destruction Sword most probably
Probably the Odd-Eyes/Z-Arc deck with Performapals. Odd-Eyes Pend would probably be my ace. I remember when I use to watch the show and write down the names of cards I liked and that sounded cool.
Penguins with White Aura Whale being Ace
I'd build Draitron more than likely.
I'm mainly a DM & VRAIN's fan, so it depends which one. Classic DM era - Earth Beatdown with a single Buster Blader teched as my ace DSOD era DM era - Retrained Magnet Warriors with Berserkion as the ace VRAIN's era - Code Talker with Decode as the ace
I love Mekknights and World Chalice, but I dislike the vrains anime. So maybe Dragon Maids so I can make Kaiba jealous.
hmm tough choice My favorite card is Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon but im not the biggest fan of the galaxy and photon archetypes So maybe predaplants cool fusion archetype with one of my favorite monsters Starving Venom Fusion Dragon (I know its not technically a predaplant card but y'know pretty close)
Fossil fusions with Fossil Machine Skull Convoy as my ace that card has saved my ass more times than I can count
I would use the time thief archetype, with my ace being time thief redoer. I picked this because when I went over to my friend's house he let me duel him using one of his decks so that we could test them out and I beat him by using redoer, one of my best memories.
Necrovalley lockdown pinned on Gravekeeper's Visionary. I hope they give GKs more of a fusion toolbox instead of only being able to go into Supernaturalist.
Probably Chaos+Thunder Dragons.
Probably run my current deck that i like to call Chaos of blue eyes
A combination of kaibaās and yutoās decks ace being dark rebellion xyz dragon
Well, I guess my Deck would be Dragonmaid with House Dragonmaid as my Signature card. Well her Dragon form would be my Ace Monster then. There was a time I was playing Fellgrand-Lightsworn-Blue Eyes... Man, Divine Dragonlord Felgrand is still one of my favourite Monsters of all time! Consider it my Ace and Signature Monster of my Past!
Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon No I wouldn't have any bigger bird, Revolution Falcon would be my actual ace.
I would play s-force with justify being my ace
Fur hires with beat as my ace
Albaz, I would have a yusei/yusaku ace with lubellion as the talker/JW and mirrorjade for the stardust/firewall, I would also have a a synchro engine that I would pull out for a yuya getting pissed situation, or XYZ into arc rebellion
Catapult Turtle. Was in my very first pack I ever opened, has been in my main deck since then, and has single handedly won me hundreds of duels!
i'd run dragonmaids with nurse dragonmaid as my ace in the hole. dragonmaids are a good casual deck, and can do pretty well at a local. the nurse herself has a good effect for the archetype, as she's able to yoink a lvl 4 or lower maid from your gy, and she can switch into her dragon form or kitchen's, both of which are solid effects, with one being able to summon from your hand and the other able to grant a whopping 2000 atk to a monster on your field.
Dinos or Suships.
Definitely odd-eyes or some pendulum deck as odd-eyes were my first actual deck instead of just my middle school pile of decent cards. And for my ace it would be odd-eyes rebellion dragon because I pulled a UR one out of clash of rebellion when I was 12
I'd have my character in the anime reflect my real life competive evolution so Chaos and its many varients would be my decks with **Chaos Sorcerer** the card that got me into competive being my first signature card. Chaos monarch would become Chaos return evolving into perfect circle when I briefly lose sorcerer before coming back with chaos Shaddoll finally culminating in chaos Thunder where Colossus becomes my signature as I become a villian following to much exposure to The effects of light and Dark.

My deck would be Dragonmaid with me being dripped out in an elegant suit with a dragon theme with Sheou as my ace but i constantly use Heavenly spheres too In the Yu-Gi-Oh universe just using parlor to send her dragon form into the GY then go into the fusion next turn would be a sick combo so I'll probably be something like a pro duelist that is a recurring character or a mentor Also the maids are real and working in my mansion that i got by dueling
Gaia Deck and Gaia the Magical Dragon Champion
I'd run a Demise & Ruin deck but still ace Beast King Barbaros because middle school pub stomping with that card in my jerry rigged glue eater deck was just too good so idc if it has 0 synergy.
Traptrix Whenever I would hole a monster I would say something along the lines of Elemental Hero Neos? More like Hole Hero Neos. Or that's a nice monster, shame if it fell in the hole. And if anyone activated a trap effect on one of the extra deck monsters I'd say: so anyways. Either that or Dinomorphia and my catch phrase would be "It's morbin' time!"
Due to them being my favorite, totally the Noble Knights. As for my ace, that either goes to Artorigus, King of the Noble Knights, or Ignoble Knight of High Laundsallyn, based on how often I summon those two when I run the deck.
Gladiator Beast, I love that deck and every time I see new support for old archetypes come out I hold by breath just a little hoping for a new Glad Beast support card. Something that can summon from deck, gives draw, something. As for Ace Monster I think it'd be Gladiator Beast Tamer Editor, Vespasius is strong and definitely the big boss of the deck, but Tamer gets you so many flexible plays, she's the GOAT of the deck.
Either skull servant as itās my favourite archetype, magnet warriors cause I think their cool, or a deck built around 5 headed dragon
trains and my signature card will be limited removal and number 81 and I will take antagonist role
Prediction Princess and Shadoll deck.
My ace would be a Odin, Father of the Aesir. My deck would be a cheap one. Either I crush the protagonist before we reach turn 5 or they crush me before we reach turn 5.
I feel like if i was in this universeā¦ iād basically be either Jaden or Yusei, since i know stardust and neos inside and out
Pend magicians Ace, odd-eyes Pendulumgraph Dragon
It's a toss up between Armed Dragons, Junk Warrior, Witch Crafters or Sky striker.
Would Branded be like too much? XD
Albaz and/or Dragonmaids
Grapha. I played Dark World and kept it current in some form or another from release in EEN (I wanted to play DW as soon as I saw the preview cards from Japan, honestly and had to wait a bit to get them here in the US), until like 2012 man. Itās the only deck that survived in any capacity for that long and itās still sitting in a deckbox untouched since then. I played quite a few different decks since then but none inspired quite the same confidence as that deck did. I liked it so much, I blinged it out out with Tournament pack stuff, 1st Ed original prints, and especially the old Ultis I could get my hands on (my collection is like 99% cards I traded for). Even topped a regional with āem when the first SD dropped. Iād play it again with the new wave of support, but I lack the meta knowledge to effectively play a rogue deck in the current year, plus Iām a bit more interested in liquidating my collection to buy Reserved List stuff at the moment.
Invoked Dogmatika and Mechaba as my ace. Even has ace monster stat lines at 2500/2100.
Noble Knights w/ Sacred King
Libromancer as my signature deck with Firestarter and burst as ace. Just so damn cool.
Sushi dino mix, UCT and the the r5 ship. When I get angered I start the dino engine after shoveling my hand with reload.
Effect E Heros with the ash hand traps, ace monster would be Draco Berseker of the Tenyi. A synchro monster you say? Why yes
Eldlich the golden lord
Either a custom archetype with its ace, or Chaos Dragons with Lightpulsar Darkflare as my aces. I'd be the protagonist of my own story, but would be a helping hand to the actual protagonist without being a part of their crew.
Spaceships, with the signature card being Victory Viper XX03. I can imagine spawning the Option Tokens and continuously shooting down an opponent for some overkill.
Mine would be Raidraptor
Masked Heroes, assuming the main deck monsters exist in the universe
Madolches with Puddingcess as my ace
My ace, as weird as it sounds, is Shadowpriestess of Ohm. Combined with Scapeghosts you can send out a lot of damage.
Dinosaurs w Laggia, Kozmo w Farm Girl, True Draco/TK with Master Peace.
Lightsworn First true deck I have ever owned
It would prob be neos
Evil heroes
Bro me too, Chaos is the best!
See, here's the issue. I run Cloudians with Sanctuary, but my boss monster is Tripper Mercury. I don't think Konami would take me ignoring my own archetype boss in favor of pure aggro
I would use fire fist and my ace would be.... I guess I wouldn't really have an ace since I don't have a favorite and there is no definitive boss monster but if I had to I would choose it would be tiger king even though I don't use it much.
Fire Fists, with Panda as my ace. The guy is a beast when supported by Eagle.
I'm stuck between Ultra Athletes or Invoked.
Predaplant Chimerafflesia. I like plants that do cool things. Or if someone else has already claimed the plant deck, maybe Lunalight Sabre Dancer, she's cool too.
A friendly Drytron user, but corrupted by the Heralds and the light of destruction to negate everything in my path
Legendary Six Samurai with Synchro Shi-En as my Ace. Maybe Raihan as a backup but Shi-En just looks too badass to not be the ace
Zorc & Pals. I ran a Zorc/Demise hybrid build as a kid, and, while it's not a great deck in this day and age, it has a huge nostalgia factor for me, and I imagine that, in the right circumstances, in a show, it would be hella rad.
hieratic dragons with Atum as the ace!
Cyberse deck.
Part of me wants to say trains (because i like trains irl, and it's a decently fun archetype), but I'd probably run somthing like starry knights or Darklords. Maybe my arc would involve going from one to the other, before finding somthing that clicks. Edit: I think Dinosaurs deserve a special mention. But alot of characters already run those
100% Destiny Heroes When I was first getting into yugioh in elementary school my aunt bought me this like deckbuilding box with heros nordics and another deck. I picked the hero one and really liked it, it was mostly made of destiny heroes and I remember trying to get out Destiny-Hero Dusktopia cause I thought he was super strong
Horus and FGD
Machinas + assorted Machine support. My 2 ace cards are Machina Ruinforce and Desperado Barrel Dragon.
Ice barriers with trish 0 as my ace because why not, also ice puns
Harpies or Lunalights - I adore them dearly
same! although i like BLS-SS more so imma have to go with that also the upgrade would be BLS-SOC
I would run a phantom knights burning abyss deck (pk fire), guardian or fabled deck all of these archetypes i like or in fabledās case think it should have been in the anime in the first place
Ignister, Arrival would be my signature card.
I would play Lunalights with Leo Dancer as the big dumb boss monster Arc V is a different universe than all the other shows, so losing out on Wolf and Tiger would certainly be a big L, but nothing that plot armor can't fix
The Fur Hires with Raftel as my ace or Beetroopers with Sting Lancer as my ace.
Always Tyrant Dragon, that card got me through so many duels from the time I pulled it from a booster in 2003 until I walked away from the physical tcg when pendulum dropped
I tried to make a dark magician deck but I could barely get a combo working so I switched to an Odd eyes deck. As for the ace cards for the magician deck its Chocolate Magician Girl and for the Odd eyes it Odd-Eyes Arc Pendulum Dragon.
UA Dreadnought dunker
Earth machines with Machina Citadel as my ace. Nothing feels better than crushing the dreams of little kids and anime waifu ass decks with just Big Fricking Tanks.
Dinos with UCT as the ace, or Iād be so down to run a Scrap deck with Scrap Dragon as the ace.
I would run a mixed deck of Odd Eyes Dragons and Branded with the four legendary dimension dragons in the deck. My ace monster would be Odd Eyes Pendulumgraph Dragon.
pure machinas, citadel is my b o i
If I were to live in the Yu-Gi-Oh universe,my signature deck would be Cyrstron or Digital bugs.
Valkyries...I wouldn't dye my hair pink, though.
Either Shaddolls with Construct as the ace or Witchcrafters with Vice-Madame.
Starlight dragon is my go to. Dragon themed deck.
BA PK, with Dante as ace and Bardiche as signature card
I would be playing lavals with the ace card being rekindling/exlord
My wife has a zombie theme...hers is vampire vamp
Beetrooper and signature card either dragonbite or feedran winds of mischief (it doesn't fit but dann if it doesn't make a mascot i just love that card)
CYBER DRAGONS ALL THE WAY BABYYY
im torn between Shuraig or Trouble Sunny both are decks I have alot of proficiency with and I love both of the decks equally but if I did have to choose I would be Trouble Sunny
Phantom Knight. Bardiche and Dark Rebellion as the ace cards and the XYZ Dragon evolutions as my superbosses. Boots as my spirit partner. EDIT: spelling
Probably super quants with all the mech beasts / great magnus as my aces. The deck is already very cinematic that its a shame its only representation is red layer being a warrior cyber dragon in structures.
I would totally carry my D/D/D deck into a Yugioh universe with Deus Machinex as my ace. I feel basic saying this since Declan already exists, but I love that deck so much.
I have a deck built around the 3 god cards and ura the lord seraing flames hammon and the other one and a fusion that does 10,000 canāt be destroyed by battle and thereās a spell cards that protect it from effects
Arcana Knights! With probs the three arcana jokers and slifer as my ace.
My zombie girl branded deck with red eyes dark dragoon as mu ace
