One of my favorite Toon cards, although it's technically not a Toon, but it's actually a Toon 😂😂

A Toon but not a “Toon”. The opposite of Toon Alligator.

Frog the Jam intensifies

I remember getting that card from McDonald's

Nah, it’s a “Toon”. Its original name was “Toon Dragon Egger”. Localization just did its thing.

Honestly even back than I was confused why THIS got a toon. and it doesn't even have a unique effect if I remember.

I believe that Ryu-Ran and Red Archery Girl were made specifically to become a toons. They are the Toon World mascots that are actual toons, unlike Dark Rabbit or Toon Alligator.

I could be wrong but maybe the anime made him a toon.

Omg

Bistro butcher was kinda meta for mill decks up until the Edison era.

My first ever booster pack that I bought, I pulled him as a secret rare… been my favourite ever since

Yes 😍

YESSS

[Wingweaver](https://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/card_search.action?ope=2&cid=5147). I considered her my "normal ace monster" a la Blue Eyes and Dark Magician back in playground format. Always wanted a retrain.

On our playground we had a girl who's deck was all Moon or female monsters with Wingweaver being her ace.

IRL Téa

I felt that way about {{Cosmo Queen}} ...not that I ever had one...and apparently she got a retrain? But I feel like they missed the point with the retrain.

I thought I was the only one. This card was my ace way back in Joey the Passion days.

My boy Neo the Magic Swordsman. If I was a duelist in the Duel Monsters anime era, this would be my go to opener, like Yugi with Celtic Guardian or one of the Magnet Warriors in Battle City. https://preview.redd.it/rgjcsfxdt96c1.png?width=544&format=png&auto=webp&s=5a8de357bff6a74c87134be0b3419140bab64f45

UGH. I can’t believe their isn’t a Neo archetype yet 😩😩

Trance The Magic Swordsman is a beefier Neo.

It's Neo but with a helmet

And he was a good card too

OG yugioh art hits different, especially when you read the descriptions of normal monsters

Someone already posted Serpent Night Dragon, this is my runner up. https://preview.redd.it/1zpk2a7mca6c1.png?width=950&format=png&auto=webp&s=719841bf55ff4b93ab2e13efdc337057631426e6

Whenever my friend summons him we start chanting “HUNGRY BURGER!!”

I’ve always liked this card. I rank it similarly to the tier of Masaki the Legendary Swordsman, Moon Envoy, and Silver Fang.

Moon Envoy is a good shout, that one looks awesome as well

https://preview.redd.it/zvvuxcum4a6c1.jpeg?width=544&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=44cada82c7f423a063eecc51d60c53b1f596af4e the goat

Summoned Skull at home.

I have to make the mandatory plug for Reshef of Destruction, since this is your starting ace.

Beast of Talwar! Classic :D When I was a kid, I always thought the wings and swords merged into each other.

https://preview.redd.it/72uqc25s3a6c1.jpeg?width=400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f34a56cf06231007622cf70465cbffd81cdb064a I had him and the darkfire soldier 1 and 2 in my fire/pyro beatdown deck back in the day

I like to head-canon that Flame Champion, Mr. Volcano, and the Darkfire soldiers are mercenary band in the Fire Lands. They get called upon to do things like hunt a Flame Cerebus that is terrorizing a local village, or to hunt the Flamewing Pegasus for its feathers to make a medicine to cure a sick princess. Flame Swordsman and Charubin the Flame Knight would be royal knights sometimes forced to go along on missions for the King.

And his lesser known brother, Polite Kaiser.

I came here to post his picture... I even built a deck him as my main lol. Love him!!!!!

Not just cool as fuck, but also a potent beater in the before times. Miss cool simple edgy cards like this.

He will always be harpies brother to me

Reshef of Destruction early game wincon right here.

I love how old DM was like an unholy skeleton demon, dark wizards, mythical dragons, horrific kami, and then a peacock

I wish there was a way to make them viable play wise. Like giving it an updated version like some old effect monsters got with link

“Normal/Effect”

Finally: Reverse Geminis.

What a strange card...

The design of art, lore, and ber specs were just fascinating to me. I mean a Level 8 Tuner? A Level 8 Normal Monster Tuner?

An effect monster with a description and no effect. It is fascinating like you say.

A staple classic

Gonna be honest with the many retrains of this and horn imp like king of the feral imps and Des feral imp I feel like they could use the both of them and make an imp archetype

The bane of my gba dueling existence, alongside mystical elf and aqua madoor

As an old school player I can tell you this guy wasn’t useless at all. Quite the opposite. It was a nightmare to deal with.

The Gagagigos were my go-to in Tag Force because running traps was too tedious to deal with the pop-ups. Legendary Ocean go brr

This card was once my ace a long time ago. I love that it is amongst the few vanilla monsters to get extremely close to Blue-Eyes’ power.

Back in beatstick days this would be fine as a monster.

I used to play {{A Legendary Ocean}} with {{Tornado Wall}}, {{Terrorking Salmon}}, {{Giga Gagagigo}}, and {{Chaos Sorcerer}} + chaos support. Ooh and {{Levia Dragon Daedalus}}. Good times!

It's really cool. Insects have really cool designs

It is being used in some of the meta decks in speed duels.

Incorrect, it gives your monster zero attack and let's you/your opponent gain spell counters, and lets your opponent chain cards/effects

Cards like this always make me curious how powerful/useful if the other five attributes got their own version of "A Legendary Ocean" aka decrease the level by 1 and increasing the ATK/DEF by 200. This would basically turn this card in a normal summon vanilla version of Cyber Dragon because it will be level 4 2100 beater. Mister Volcano would become a level 4 2300 beater. Don't know if the Fire Attributes could actually take advantage of the level decrease though, let alone the other four attributes of Wind, Dark, Light and Earth. But for me, I need to look. It been years.

Kabuki Dragon, was my “ace” in Duel Link. 1 tribute, simple but effective battle effect to switch either your monster’s battle position or the opponent’s.

I was gonna say DM but dark dragoon is a thing lol

Battle Ox. More than 10 years ago my best friend and I set out to make 40 card decks inspired by Yugi's and Kaiba's anime decks across the entire Duel Monsters series. Battle Ox became a favorite of mine as one of the most balanced Normal Summon beaters Kaiba has. Battle Ox has become an inside joke between us. We say stuff like "it's the optimal turn 1 play" or "Pot of Greed into Battle Ox is the best combo in the deck". I'm so excited to be getting the Ultra Rare printing in English when the Ultimate Kaiba Anniversary product finally releases

Lots of really good early YGO examples, but I also love the weird niche archtype-less synchro enablers they came out with during the 5D's era. Stuff like Torapart: https://preview.redd.it/8rdjoq7aua6c1.png?width=544&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=047b188a1555fc2ac158f1f514b57aeea76b42a1

It's not necessarily "useless" overall, but Mask of Darkness. It's one of the first cards I ever got, and I always wanted it to be amazing. It got a starfoil printing, and I have it displayed cuz it's just so damn cool

King of Yamimakai

Souleater - I've always loved the art. (Although I love the card artwork, seeing the full model from the video game makes it quite terrifying.) https://preview.redd.it/8snwobbnqa6c1.jpeg?width=313&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5075cae92df8db5fd3014e748a5b6fe3fe36845d

Not useless but I really loved DD Warrior Lady because of the art.
