Sure you can debate that the main reason he beat the pharaoh was because he knew him so well but that in itself is enough for me to rank him as #1 ahead of Kaiba and the pharaoh because he seemingly has a plan for any possible scenario he is faced with.

Second, in what way did Atem "let Yugi win" when Atem was literally willing cards to the top of his deck? He was going all out and even admitted to doing so. And third, the DSoD duel vs Kaiba wasn't concluded but (and you can watch TGSAnime for this one) Yugi did have Kaiba beat 100%. Kaiba had set Polymerization face down as a bluff, he had nothing to stop Yugi's final attack and would have lost. Which was the entire point of Kaiba's smile at the end and him being immediately on board with teaming with Yugi to take on Aigami, compared to how much he bristled at the idea of tagging with Yugi/Yami in the past - he knows Yugi is legit and accepts him as a true duelist and the King of Games.

I really like the respect given to Rafael here. Not only is he the American champion(?, show is really vague about it but it basically suggests there's some in-universe ranking system that he beats Rebecca at), he beat the Pharaoh then almost did it again while playing Guardians the whole time, beating anyone with that deck is an accomplishment Not only that, he's also described as a "True Duelist" due to his bond with his deck, which leads to essentially a +>1 to topdeck luck. Man loves his deck so much he became top tier, which is worth a lot on its own Sure, Dartz almost beat the two strongest duelists in the world at the same time, but I essentially headcanon him to having all his cards made for him as head of Paradius. He's the boss, he can do that. Dartz is a corrupt person, of course he'd make the most broken cards he could have, and then print the monsters in Enochian so only he knows the text on them lol. Not only that, the Orichalcos Duel Disks clearly aren't KC products, I also don't put it past him to make it read his fake cards or possibly go past anti-cheat functions (which kinda applies to all the other Orichalcos duelists) Anyway, that was a bunch of theory and conjecture, but tl;dr Rafael is stronger than Dartz because he got that far with Guardians

I haven't rewatched the DM anime for a long time, so my top 10 based only on the manga would be: 1. Yugi 2. Atem 3. Kaiba 4. Yami Bakura 5. Yami Marik 6. Isis Ishtar 7. Pegasus 8. Jonouchi 9. normal Marik Ishtar 10. Mai Honourable mentions: * Rishid Ishtar, because he would've beaten Jonouchi in Battle City if not for Marik forcing him to summon fake Ra and get knocked out, but he has no other duels so can't rank for me. * Priest Seto. When he was possessed by Akhenaden, he defeated a weakened Atem with his Blue Eyes, which Dark Magician stated rivalled the power of the Egyptian God cards, and Akhenaden claimed was even stronger than the Gods' combined form Horakhty. But those old Ancient Egyptian duels are not really comparable to modern duels so I felt it wasn't fair to rank him. * Yako Tenma. I didn't feel like including Yugioh R characters in the 10. If I did, he probably ranks at number 5 or 6 and pushes Mai off the list. And my top 10 including the manga AND DSOD would be: 1. Atem 2. Dark Aigami 3. Yugi 4. Kaiba 5. Yami Bakura 6. Yami Marik 7. Isis Ishtar 8. Pegasus 9. normal Aigami 10. Jonouchi

Jonouchi being that low is a crime, he legitimately surpassed many of the characters during waking the dragons arc, I feel like he should be 4th spot or 5th, Isis was only good because she foresaw years prior, she also only could execute that strategy because Kaiba had Obelisk. Pegasus is worse than Joey nowadays, i feel he surpassed Pegasus due to waking the dragons and almost beating Mai and a full strength Valon. My rankings would be: 1. Yugi Muto 2. Seto Kaiba 3. Yami Yugi 4. Dark Aigami 5. Seto Kaiba 6. Joey Wheeler ] 7. Raphael ] 8. Yami Bakura ] 9. Yami Marik ] 10. Mai ] ] - A little interchangeable between these people.

It almost backfired, but he won because that's what he was going for.

Which for Mai is one thing but the fact that somehow Marik and Yami Bakura didn't know/couldn't read all the abilities of Ra just feels like another asspull to make Yami Marik feel like a super big bad ahead of the game on everyone, when really he gets carried by shenanigans and not actual skill.

He never tribute summons Ra in the manga or the anime. He didn't think that he needed to use Ra on Joey and probably thought the same with Mai. The manga version of the Mai vs. Marik fight is a lot different. Marik has her on the ropes for the entire duel. In the anime, Mai comes out looking stronger. In the manga, Marik and Bakura seal Ra in the graveyard instead of using exchange to tribute summon it. Arguably, Yami Marik figured out before everyone else that it's easier to not tribute summon when you don't have to.

They mainly win only when using a combination of cheating, broken Egyptian god cards, broken millennium items, or absurd plot BS. I thought that was the point of DM. To show how good the protagonists are as duelists in spite of usually being at a disadvantage compared to their villains. Joey is the rookie with no money who grew to become the 3rd best in the show, behind only protagonist Atem/Yugi and main rival Kaiba. And Kaiba himself only ever loses to main character Yugi or to the main arc villains.

Each show introduces amazing decks and archetypes and I'd be interested to hear your. thoughts on the best in each show. An example would be arcv introducing the predaplants or the valkyries in the filler of dm. Just pick the ten best in each and your thoughts on the way they were used, your thoughts on who used them etc.

A few thoughts: 1.) Hope you had some tea after you recorded; your voice does *not* sound to be in good health. 2.) You're going to leave Yugi/Yami Yugi and Pegasus off of the GX one, right? 3.) Whenever you make it all the way to Vrains, are you going to sit on Sevens+ for a while, just to see how much past characters might show up?

I am surprised that Joey was ranked above Siegfried, since Joey lost to him. I also rank Dartz above Pegasus even at his peak. Dartz should be ranked above Rafael, even if Rafael defeated Yami Yugi. The fact that took Yami Yugi and Seto Kaiba to defeat Dartz says a lot, and Dartz had all levels of the seal of orichalchos. Finally, Yugi should be ranked above both Atem and Seto Kaiba. Yugi legitimately defeating Atem should be proof enough that Yugi was the stronger duelist. Even Seto couldn't manage a win against Atem without cheating, but Yugi did. Yugi was always good at duel monsters, but needed confidence, just as Atem needed the gentleness that Yugi had. Yugi should have been at the number one spot. Yugi even defeated Seto Kaiba in the dark side of dimensions movie, which follows manga continuity. Glad that Téa Gardner got an honorable mention due to her undefeated record.

Yami Yugi/Atem is definitely the strongest duelist in DM, but a duelist that didn’t even get an honorable mention that I think should is Aigami/Diva. Ok, I know he didn’t win a duel & he had a magical artifact, but the only purpose the quantum cube served in his duels was to turn the duel into a dimension duel & act as his duel disk. His Cubic deck was strong & he would’ve beaten Kaiba if he hadn’t been able to summon Obelisk. He gave Yugi a run for his money & beat Kaiba & almost beat Yugi after gaining the power of the Millennium Ring. He would’ve won won that duel if Atem hadn’t taken over for Yugi; if that isn’t the sign of a strong duelist then I don’t know what is.

Top 10 duelists IMO would be: 1. Yugi/Atem 2. Kaiba 3. Dartz 4. Raphael 5. Yarik 6. Joey 7. Noah 8. Yakura 9. Maximilian Pegasus 10. Mai If counting Yugi and Atem as separate characters then: 1. Yugi (he's proven he surpasses Atem) 2. Atem (although I want to personally believe he's number 1 in my book and would've wanted to switch Yugi to number 2) 3. Kaiba 4. Dartz 5. Raphael 6. Yarik 7.

The fact Ishizu, the "I'll look into the future, know evey single thing you'll do in the duel, and I'll make my deck be in the best shape to defeat you" lady, isn't even featured... this is just wrong. the only way to beat her is with literal hax. and the kind where you need to have a connection to ancient egypt and be destined to duel against someone else AND losing the duel against her means you can't duel against said someone. all this to say, she's absolutely broken

I'm not too sure about the others, but as far as my top 3, I'd have Kaiba, Yugi, and Atem at 3, 2, and 1, respectively. I'm keeping Yugi over Kaiba because of how their duel played out on DSOD. The same argument could be made for the the duel between Yugi and Atem, but I see that one more as Atem testing if Yugi can make it without him, and Yugi ushering Atem to the afterlife. I still think Atem is the better of the 2. Just my opinion.

Don't forget that in the movie dark side of dimension both kaiba and yugi couldn't beat the last villian and atem had to come and save the day so I don't see yugi beat atem a second time and also in this movie kaiba did whipe the floor with yugi but of course the duel did not have a ending. I can accept people that say he might beat dartz and rafael but I don't see him beat atem and kaiba) 6 Aigami, strong duelist 7 zigfried strong duelist 8 joey 9 alister 10 odion

I've long held onto the Semi-Crack Theory that Odion/Rishid Ishtar was the strongest duelist in all of original Yu-Gi-Oh! (Although I also ranked Joey a lot higher XD) Odion won enough locator cards for both himself and Marik to enter the Battle City finals - and did it without either cheating or using Milennium Items or God Cards. He would have beat Joey if Marik hadn't forced him to use Ra and get himself struck with a Bolt of Divine Retribution! And Joey would have beat Yami Marik, who didn't even lose to Yami Yugi by skill it the end of the season - he was retaken by normal Marik and surrendered, thanks to Odion's support, and then I think I read that Kazuki Takahashi stated that Joey won against Yami Yugi after Battle City to get his Red-Eyes back. So even though Odion technically lost his only on-screen duel, the fact that he was winning against Joey who had beaten both Yami Marik and Yami Yugi (if you look at it a certain way) and fairly got double the locator cards says a lot about his skill! Justice for my man Odion! :)

I would say Atem, Yugi, and Kaiba are the obvious top 3. No one else even comes close. Kaiba lost to Pegasus, but Pegasus was just straight-up cheating. Yugi beat Atem, but I think that there was a decent amount of luck involved no matter how skilled Yugi is.

Always a fun topic. We're going to have so much content thanks to this series, and it's all going to be fun Max power DM Seto Kaiba is pretty insane; he's got the Critias monsters, Chaos Emperor Dragon, dimension fusion, Obelisk, Card of Demise, Spell Sanctuary, etc Also Max power Joey gets the Hermos monsters, and that's pretty dope Quick question for everyone (that's kinda relavent): when you make a Seto Kaiba anime deck, Do you give him 1 copy of Mirror Force so that he can actually summon Mirror Force Dragon? Or you give him zero because he was never confirmed to use or own it?

Seto's win against Yami, while obtained through blackmailing, is criticized to an absurd degree in my opinion. He did it for Mokuba, it was his way to save his brother. I think people should either NOT count that duel when it comes to Yami losing, or respect Kaiba for going to such a lenght for his brother.

In all fairness, the audience knew what Kaiba was fighting for, but the main characters didn't at the time. They didn't realize Mokuba was being held hostage by Pegasus.

I like the list Dylan, that being said, I would put Joey in the top 5 (maybe even a tie for 4th with Raphael), essentially flipping him and Dartz's position. Dartz was an awesome filler villain (definitely in my top 10 in all of anime), but I don't think he's better than Joey, but that's just me.

I go back and forth between Atem v. Kaiba S3 and Atem v. Marik as the best duels in the series but either way for that reason I feel like Yami Marik should be ranked higher. And imo Dartz was technically better than Raphael (better than Marik too maybe? It's hard to say) because I dont think Atem wouldve won without Kaiba's help but I understand being the only duelist to fairly beat Atem besides Yugi deserves some distinction.
