(Like in GX when Haou won the duel against Jim with 50 LPs he didn't have) [/quote] They have control over the duel... And now I'm going to re-watch Haou vs. Jim.

Cin Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 If you see it in Japanese they make a miscalcuation of 100 LPs in I think the first episode of the duel. The dub I believe corrected it. By mistakes I meant characters doing something stupid and not utilizing cards properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossil Hammer destroyed Malicious Edge, and let him revive a monster with a lower level. The monsters in his grave were Avian (3), Burstinatrix (3), and Inferno Wing (6). Even if Inferno Wing has the "can't be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon" clause, Burstinatrix would have had ATK tied with that of Pachycephalo.

Phantom Roxas Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 [quote name='Darkplant - PAIN' timestamp='1313023411' post='5431864']All the episodes of GX, besides places where the plot moved.

Phantom Roxas Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 I forgot about that one, and I wish it stayed that way. Indeed, that was even worse. I honestly thought that the Team Taiyou duel was the best match in the WRGP, excluding the duel with the Tenors, because I actually found the team very interesting. Team Unicorn was hyped way too much and the ending to that duel was stupid, and Team Ragnarok felt like they were just there to provide the official Sacred Trio of the series. With Team Taiyou, I absolutely loved their backstory, and it's kind of sad a team with awful decks manages to be far more entertaining than a team with great decks for a reason that isn't "it's so bad it's good".

J-Max Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 [quote name='Duck_Sauce' timestamp='1313027074' post='5432040'] I would say my least favorite episode was Jaden vs Titan in YuGiOh GX season one, but then I went back to the original YuGiOh. Bakura vs Marik was SUCH a letdown. I wanted so much out of that, and it was basically just stalling. [/quote] Titan actually used a proper Deck rather then just a (One Duel Card) and he actually ran it pretty well, I thought Jaden was going to lose a few times then When you think about it there was a LOT of Duels involving cards that you would never see again. Like Tyrano vs that Ra Yellow Headmaster. Cooking Ingrediants? My God..... EDIT: Bakura vs Marik was mostly both Duellists throwing insults at each other Marik laughed through most of his final Duel with Yugi, hense why it was so many episodes.

Haou was incorrectly dropped to 1950 (proper calculation is as you mentioned). Fossil Dyna had 1300 ATK in the Japanese version (the dub corrected by giving it the proper 1200). So Haou was supposed to be at 1850, took 300, then took 1600= -50. Also, Burstinatrix was removed from Haou's grave using Fossil Fusion, so Avian was the only choice (assuming Inferno Wing was not allowed). My least favorite episodes tend to be the ones that just weren't interesting, or the entire duel was contrived. I liked Team Taiyou's duel, but their backstory was dull as hell. Team Unicorn's last move continues to enrage me. While I liked the duel between Yugi and Noah, the rest of the arc sucked. While I liked the Orichalcos arc, the duel with Dartz was a huge exposition of Dartz's backstory mixed with insanely overpowered effects that I swear involved the game rules being changed every turn, plus Divine Serpent's defeat was nonsensical.

Divine Serpent's defeat wasn't nonsensical. I actually like the mechanics near the end of the duel where both it and Dark Magician Girl were basically Deck Masters. Now, that KC Grand Championship.

evilfusion Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Because it's forgetable outside of Zigfried's epic cards and Kaiba thrashing him.

Cin Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Thanks evilfusion for clearing that up. This topic has to be the only time I've seen someone disagree with the common concensus. The Egyptian arc could of done with some tweaking to make it more like the manga. (Should reread Millennium World 1-7 when I remember), although I didn't mind seeing Luster fused with BEUD. I loved the Assasins in GX, mainly because I wanted to cry when Ryo got turned into a doll. Abidos Vs Judai now that is something I'd rather forget, even though I loved Sho picking on Manjoume at the end. Leon Vs Rebecca was pretty weak. Vivan and Rebecca ruined that arc for me....seriously I hate fangirls, didn't mind the conflict between Stephanie, Mikage and Carly because it was funny.

J-Max Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Want to know the worst part of the KCGC? Nope it wasn't seeing Rex & Weevil yet again, nope it wasn't hearing Rebecca's screechy voice over and over again. I hate the way she pronounces the word Card. It was Tea and her constant rant of "I NEED MORE FEMALE FRIENDS!" Seriously? They got bored of the whole Friendship thing for one season and gave her that lame Catchphrase? Ziegfried was actually a all right Villian for the Arc. He had this voice that just sends shivers down your spine. Leon however was just pitiful! I hated Noah and I hated Leon because of the Same Voice. It's like the Vpice Actor never even tried to be someone different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Agreed. The only episodes of that season I ever rewatch is Joey vs Zigfried and Kaiba vs Zigfried, and every so often I watch the one minute duel between Rex/Weevil vs Zigfried. I wonder who was the most interesting character in that season. The Kaiba duel was literally the best thing about the entire season, because the ending was epic. I never even liked Leon in that arc.

Phantom Roxas Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Leon as the final boss of the season was a joke. I liked Joey vs. Grandpa, if only because situational decks designed to summon one card (Or as Rebecca says, "kARRdd") are really fun to watch. The von Schroder brothers were such exaggerated rehashes of Pegasus that it's not even funny. Zigfried had the femininity, and Leon had the obsession with fairy tales, which matches up with Pegasus's Toons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie is another term for Veronica, and I'm glad I didn't watch that. It would be like Dark Carly. Speaking of Carly: Years from now there will be a war between Jarly and Jina fans all over the universe. Jina: 5d's superfans who want Jack and Mina to be together. Jarly: 5d's superfans who want Jack and Carly to be together. It will be a battle of which only the strong will survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
