Yu-Gi-Oh Anime Card Ratings (Page 3)

1.
Cards below were either exclusive to the anime or are anime
versions of TCG cards. 2. Card info below is from how they were used. 3. List excludes Normal Monsters as they generally do not have decent properties, cards with identical effects to their TCG versions, non-physical cards and cards whose texts aren't confirmed to have effects. |
|
#300 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Active Guard EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 0 / DEF 2500 (Machine / Armor) Only 1 Armor monster can attack per turn. Also, if there are 2 or more Armor monsters on the field when an Armor monster is selected as an attack target, its controller can change the target to another Armor monster they control with a different name. During either player's turn, you can make damage you take for the rest of the turn 0. Destroy this card at the end of the turn if you use this effect. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Active_Guard_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 So long as you don't use the last effect, it'll probably be able to save you multiple times. |
|
#299 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Over Boost EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 0 / DEF 1000 (Machine / Armor) Only 1 Armor monster can attack per turn. Also, if there are 2 or more Armor monsters on the field when an Armor monster is selected as an attack target, its controller can change the target to another Armor monster they control with a different name. Armor monsters you control can attack your opponent directly. If they do by this effect, destroy this card during the End Phase. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Over_Boost_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 With all of them having 0 ATK, even a boost of 1000 points doesn't make this useful. |
|
#298 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Trap Buster EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 0 / DEF 2000 (Machine / Armor) Only 1 Armor monster can attack per turn. Also, if there are 2 or more Armor monsters on the field when an Armor monster is selected as an attack target, its controller can change the target to another Armor monster they control with a different name. Negate the effects of your opponent's Trap Cards that target 1 Armor monster you control or would destroy 2 or more monsters on the field. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Trap_Buster |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 It's actually able to defend you two-fold, which is more than other monsters with high DEF can do. |
|
#297 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Big Bang Blow EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 0 / DEF 0 (Machine / Armor) Only 1 Armor monster can attack per turn. Also, if there are 2 or more Armor monsters on the field when an Armor monster is selected as an attack target, its controller can change the target to another Armor monster they control with a different name. When this card is destroyed by battle while you control 2 or more Armor monsters, you can destroy all monsters on the field, then inflict damage to both players equal to the destroyed monster(s) combined ATK. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Big_Bang_Blow_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 The most potent of the effects isn't required, but without it, it doesn't really do anything meaningful. |
|
#296 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Armored Gravitation SPELL / Normal Spell Special Summon up to 4 Level 4 or lower Armor monsters from your Deck in face-up Attack Position. Send those monsters to the Graveyard at the end of the turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Armored_Gravitation |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 They were largely a risky idea, but they aren't all bad. |
|
#295 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Diamond Head Dragon LIGHT / Effect Monster / Level 8 / ATK 0 / DEF 2800 (Dragon / Effect) This card cannot be Normal or Special Summoned, except with "Adamantine Sword Revival". This card's ATK becomes the Tributed monster's ATK +1000. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Diamond_Head_Dragon |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Very little aside from the Summon requirements. |
|
#294 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Adamantine Sword Revival SPELL / Quick-Play Spell Activate only when a Dragon-Type monster(s) is Special Summoned from the Graveyard. Tribute 1 of those monsters, then Special Summon 1 "Diamond Head Dragon" from your Deck in face-up Attack Position to the field of the Tributed monster's controller. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Adamantine_Sword_Revival |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Learning that the effect applies to the player whose monster was Tributed really hurts this card's uses. |
|
#293 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Magnet Armor TRAP / Normal Trap Special Summon 1 Armor monster from your Graveyard in face-up Attack Position. Destroy that monster during the End Phase. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Magnet_Armor |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 The fact that Joey proved to be a match for Valon speaks a lot for the weakness of the Deck as a whole. |
|
#292 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Double Cloth Armor EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 6 / ATK 0 / DEF 0 (Machine / Armor) Only 1 Armor monster can attack per turn. If a player controls 2 or more Armor monsters and 1 of them is selected as an attack target, they can redirect the attack to another Armor monster they control. This card cannot attack during your turn. If this card is attacked by an opponent's monster, destroy the attacking monster and inflict damage to your opponent equal to half their attacking monster's ATK, then destroy this card at the end of that battle. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Double_Cloth_Armor_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 If we ever get these as legit cards, we'd better not have the first effect included. |
|
#291 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Summon Dice SPELL / Normal Spell Pay 1000 Life Points, then roll a six-sided die. ● 1 or 2: You can Normal Summon or Set twice this turn. ● 3 or 4: You can Special Summon 1 monster from either player's Graveyard. ● 5 or 6: You can Normal Summon 1 Level 5 or higher monster without Tributing. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Summon_Dice_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 While Duke's choice for his die roll wasn't good, the effets aren't as bad as other die effects. |
|
#290 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 165) Psychic Armor Head EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 0 / DEF 500 (Machine / Armor) Only 1 Armor monster can attack per turn. If a player controls 2 or more Armor monsters and 1 of them is selected as an attack target, they can redirect the attack to another Armor monster they control. During your Draw Phase, you can add 1 Armor monster from your Deck to your hand instead of conducting your normal draw. During your Standby Phase, if this card is in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon it in face-up Attack Position. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Psychic_Armor_Head_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 They may resemble Exodia pieces, but they are far less useful. |
|
#289 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 164) Excalibur SPELL / Equip Spell Double the equipped monster's ATK. You can skip your Draw Phase each turn. If you draw a card(s), destroy this card. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Excalibur |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Infernity (#13) Decks would be the only ones to make use of this without drawback. |
|
#288 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 164) Orichalcos Gigas DARK* / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 400 / DEF 1500 (Fiend* / Effect) You cannot draw cards. When this card is destroyed, you can Special Summon it, but it cannot attack this turn. This card gains ATK equal to the number of times it is Special Summoned this way during the Duel x 500. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Orichalcos_Gigas *Attribute and Type are speculation as anime card doesn't have them. |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 x |
|
#287 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 163) Divine Wind TRAP / Counter Trap Activate only when an opponent's Effect Monster's effect would inflict damage. Negate that effect, then inflict damage to your opponent equal to the amount that would've been inflicted +500. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Divine_Wind |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 500 more damage isn't much, and neither is the Effect Damage itself in most cases. |
|
#286 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 162) Berserker Soul SPELL / Quick-Play Spell Activate only by discarding all cards in your hand. Select 1 monster you control with 1500 or less ATK then draw cards until you draw a Spell or Trap Card. Send any Monster Cards drawn this way to the Graveyard, then the selected monster can attack again for each Monster Card drawn this way. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Berserker_Soul_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Most strategies aren't going to get more than an extra attack or two, but some can attack twice already. |
|
#285 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 162) Infestation TRAP / Normal Trap All face-up monsters on the field lose 100 ATK, then each player takes 100 damage for each monster they control. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Infestation_(card) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Weevil was fortunate this dealt enough damage to put Yami close to losing, but it's hardly an issue. |
|
#284 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 162) Poison Butterfly WIND / Effect Monster / Level 7 / ATK 2700 / DEF 1800 (Insect / Effect) Inflict 500 damage to this card's controller at each of their End Phases. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Poison_Butterfly |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 It's not like Lava Golem, which costs the opponent 2 of their monsters to play it. |
|
#283 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 162) Armored Centipede EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 5 / ATK 1600 / DEF 1600 (Insect / Effect) When this card destroys an Insect-Type monster by battle, it gains 500 ATK. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Armored_Centipede |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Basically a literally weaker Millennium Scorpion. (#9) |
|
#282 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 162) Natural Selection TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only during your opponent's turn. Destroy 1 face-up monster your opponent controls, then Special Summon 1 "Selection Token" with the same Level, Type, ATK, DEF and Attribute as the selected monster's. Destroy the "Selection Token" during the End Phase of the turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Natural_Selection |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Can help get rid of a pesky monster, but yours is basically a Normal Monster. |
|
#281 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 162) Celebration of Creation TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only when a monster is Special Summoned by an opponent's card effect during their turn. End the opponent's turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Celebration_of_Creation |
|
Rating:3 out of 5 That'd have a lot of uses today. |
|
#280 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 162) Chain of the Underworld TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only when an opponent's monster is destroyed. Your opponent draws 1 card. Special Summon the destroyed monster to the opponent's field in Attack Position and lower its ATK by 700. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Chain_of_the_Underworld |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 The monster doesn't have to be destroyed by battle, but that probably helps so this can deal more damage. |
|
#279 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 161) Cell Division SPELL / Normal Spell Select 1 Level 3 or lower Insect-Type monster on the field. Special Summon 1 "Cell Division Token" with the same ATK, DEF, Level, Type and Attribute as that monster. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Cell_Division |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 The strongest Insect monsters it could be used on would have less ATK and DEF than would be worthwhile. |
|
#278 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 161) Star Blaster SPELL / Normal Spell Tribute 1 monster, then roll a six-sided die. If you have a monster in your hand whose Level equals the total of the die result and the Tributed monster's Level, you can Special Summon it. Otherwise, send 1 monster in your hand to the Graveyard.* https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Star_Blaster *Last part of the effect is speculation as it is unknown. |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Regardless of what the last effect says, this isn't going to be very useful. |
|
#277 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 161) Jurassic Heart TRAP / Counter Trap Negate the activation of a Trap Card that targets 1 Dinosaur-Type monster on the field and destroy it. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Jurassic_Heart |
|
Rating: out of 5 x |
|
#276 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 161) Horned Saurus DARK / Fusion Monster / Level 6 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1800 (Dinosaur / Fusion / Effect) "Kaitoptera" + "Gilasaurus" This card can attack your opponent directly during the turn it is Fusion Summoned. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Horned_Saurus_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 I know the anime has half the starting Life Points we do, but this is still lame. |
|
#275 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 160) Parasite Caterpiller WIND / Effect Monster / Level 3 / ATK 800 / DEF 800 (Insect / Effect) If this card is attacked by an opponent's monster, equip this card to that monster after damage calculation and treat it as an Insect-Type monster. The equipped monster cannot be attacked or Tributed. During your opponent's 3rd Standby Phase after their monster is equipped with this card. destroy the equipped monster, then Special Summon 1 "Poison Butterfly" from your Deck to your opponent's side of the field. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Parasite_Caterpillar |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 It can still attack though, and that may be all they need to win. |
|
#274 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 160) Mimesis TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only when an Insect-Type monster on the field is attacked. Return thea attacked monster to the hand, then Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower monster from your hand, and make it the attack target. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Mimesis |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 The new monster doesn't have to be an Insect, but the one being attacked does. |
|
#273 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 160) Pheromone Wasp WIND / Effect Monster / Level 3 / ATK 800 / DEF 800 (Insect / Effect) If this card inflicts battle damage to your opponent by attacking directly, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Insect-Type monster from your Deck at the end of the Battle Phase. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Pheromone_Wasp_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Even with the Seal of Orichalcos, it's nothing a regular Duelist can't handle. |
|
#272 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 158) Guardian Eatos WIND / Effect Monster / Level 8 / ATK 2500 / DEF 2000 (Fairy / Effect) This card can only be Summoned when "Celestial Sword - Eatos" is on the field. If you have no monsters in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon this card from your hand. You can destroy 1 "Celestial Sword - Eatos" equipped to this card to remove from play monsters from the top of your opponent's Graveyard until a Spell or Trap Card is revealed, then this card gains ATK equal to the total ATK of the monsters removed from play by this effect, until the end of the turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Guardian_Eatos_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Just as I expected the real card to be before release, but it became the best of the group. |
|
#271 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 158) Celestial Sword - Eatos SPELL / Equip Spell The equipped monster gains 300 ATK. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Celestial_Sword_-_Eatos_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 You won't even notice the boost. |
|
#270 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 158) Nightmare Binding SPELL / Normal Spell Select 1 monster your opponent controls. It loses 800 ATK and you gain 800 Life Points. The selected monster cannot be Tributed or use its effects. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Nightmare_Binding |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Practically useless today with Links being popular, but would've been useful back when it was shown on TV. |
|
#269 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 158) Limit Tribute TRAP / Continuous Trap Each player can only Tribute 1 monster per turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Limit_Tribute |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Not heavily impactful, unless facing a Frog Deck. |
|
#268 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 158) Monster Reincarnation SPELL / Normal Spell Select 1 monster in the Graveyard and return it to the Deck. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Monster_Reincarnation_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Returns to the wrong place to be any good. |
|
#267 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 158) Aid to the Doomed SPELL / Quick-Play Spell Activate only by when a monster you control is destroyed. End the current Battle Phase. You can activate this card during your opponent's turn by discarding 2 cards. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Aid_to_the_Doomed |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Not very useful unless used during the opponent's turn. |
|
#266 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 158) Hand Control SPELL / Normal Spell Declare 1 Spell Card name. If it is in your opponent's hand, your opponent must activate it. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Hand_Control |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 It only worked out for Yami because of Exchange's (#170) effect. |
|
#265 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 156) Crystal Seal TRAP / Continuous Trap Select 1 monster your opponent controls. That monster cannot attack, be Tributed, use its effects or be selected as an attack target. If your opponent controls no other monsters, monsters you control can attack directly. If the selected monster's ATK changes, destroy this card. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Crystal_Seal |
|
Rating: 3 out of 5 No ATK loss, but there's enough perks here that it doesn't matter. |
|
#264 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 156) Self Tribute SPELL / Quick-Play Spell Activate only by paying 1000 Life Points when a monster(s) you control would be destroyed. The monster(s) you control cannot be destroyed this turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Self_Tribute |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Could be useful if the damage you would've taken is higher and/or if your monsters are in Defense Mode. |
|
#263 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 156) The Eye of Timaeus Legendary Dragon Card Send this card and 1 Monster Card you control to the Graveyard. Special Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck that lists both cards. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/The_Eye_of_Timaeus_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight (#4) was the only remotely useful monster Summoned with this card. |
|
#262 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 156) Purity of the Cemetery SPELL / Continuous Spell Activate only if you have no monsters in your Graveyard. Inflict 100 damage to your opponent for each monster in their Graveyard at each of their Standby Phases. Destroy this card if you have a monster in your Graveyard. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Purity_of_the_Cemetery |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Why the restraints if the damage is so minimal? |
|
#261 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 156) Rescuer from the Grave SPELL / Normal Spell Activate only from your Graveyard when an opponent's monater attacks. Remove from play this card and 5 cards from your Graveyard to negate the attacking monster's attack and end the Battle Phase. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Rescuer_from_the_Grave |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 We have a card that is aptly named Negate Attack (#27) for attacks. |
|
#260 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 156) Pump Up SPELL / Normal Spell Select 1 face-up monster on the field and double its ATK until the End Phase. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Pump_Up |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 The fact Yami Yugi used this on Kuribabylon proved just how weak it was. Better for stronger monsters. |
|
#259 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 156) Kuribabylon DARK / Effect Monster / Level 5 / ATK ? / DEF 200 (Fiend / Effect) If this card was Special Summoned with the effect of "Kuribah", this card's ATK becomes the total ATK of all monsters removed from play to Special Summon it. If your "Kuribah", "Kuribeh", "Kuribee", "Kuriboh", and "Kuriboo" are removed from play, you can return this card to the Deck to Special Summon those monsters. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Kuribabylon_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Ours (#5) has actual ATK like Golden Homunculus (SDDE #4), but all 3 cards are quite bad. |
|
#258 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 156) Backup Gardna DARK / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 500 / DEF 2200 (Warrior / Effect) You can move Equip Spell Cards on the field to other appropriate targets. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Backup_Gardna_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 The effect isn't all that useful since you can already mostly pick which monters get which Equip Spells. |
|
#257 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 154) The Claw of Hermos Legendary Dragon Card Send this card and 1 Monster Card you control to the Graveyard. Activate 1 Equip Spell from your hand or Deck that lists both cards. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Claw_of_Hermos |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Joey's first use of this was met with ridicule and he didn't really get much better after that. |
|
#256 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 153) Harpie's Feather Storm TRAP / Counter Trap Activate only when a "Harpie" monster attacked. Negate the activation of an Effect Monster's effect your opponent controls and destroy it, then end the Battle Phase. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Harpie%27s_Feather_Storm_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 The TCG card (DUSA #27) is certainly better, but we have Divine Wrath (#50) for pretty much anything. |
|
#255 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 153) Trap Jammer TRAP / Counter Trap Discard 1 card. Negate the activation of a Trap Card and destroy it, then destroy this card. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Trap_Jammer_(anime) |
|
Rating: 3 out of 5 This'd put it above even Seven Tools of the Bandit. (#45) |
|
#254 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 153) Compensation Mediation TRAP / Normal Trap Your opponent selects 2 cards from their Graveyard, then Sets them on the field with this card. You then reveal 1 of the cards Set this way. If you select this card, end your opponent's turn. If you did not choose this card, continue the Battle Phase and send this card and the other chosen card to the Graveyard. Your opponent returns their picked cards to the top of their Deck in a random order. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Compensation_Mediation |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Talk about complicated. You'd be better off Setting Neko Mane King. (#21) |
|
#253 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 152) Harpie Lady Sparrow Formation TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only when an opponent's monster attacks while 2 or more "Harpie Lady" is on the field. Make battle damage you take from the attack 0. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Harpie_Lady_Sparrow_Formation |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Generic is very often the better choice as you don't need to worry about needing a specific card. |
|
#252 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 152) Nightmare Tri-Mirror TRAP / Normal Trap Special Summon 1 "Copy Token" with the same ATK, DEF, Level, Type, Attribute and name as 1 monster you control for each monster your opponent Flip or Special Summoned this turn. "Copy Tokens" cannot attack this turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Nighmare_Tri-Mirror |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Naturally, this could've been helpful when Pendulum Summons were popular. |
|
#251 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 151) Harpie Lady Phoenix Formation SPELL / Normal Spell Destroy monsters your opponent controls up to the number of "Harpie Lady" you control, then inflict damage to your opponent equal to their destroyed monster(s) total ATK(s). "Harpie" monsters cannot attack this turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Harpie_Lady_Phoenix_Formation_(anime) |
|
Rating: 3 out of 5 3 Cyber Harpies (#97) would be sufficient to deal major damage while still having a good offense. |
|
#250 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 150) Contagion of Madness SPELL / Quick-Play Spell Activate only when an opponent's monster attacks. Inflict damage to your opponent equal to half the battle damage you would take from this attack. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Contagion_of_Madness |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 When Alister used it, it only resulted in a draw. This'd be very unlikely to deal more than what you're taking. |
|
#249 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 150) Fang of Critias Legendary Dragon Card Send this card and 1 Trap Card you control to the Graveyard. Special Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck that lists both cards. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Fang_of_Critias |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 We got it as a Spell Card (#6), though Kaiba did have probably the best of the Fusion Monsters. |
|
#248 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 150) Fire Whip SPELL / Normal Spell Activate only when you control a FIRE Fiend-Type monster. Special Summon all monsters destroyed this turn to your field as FIRE monsters, but the effects of the Special Summoned monsters are negated. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Fire_Whip |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 It's not like Konami has a track record for making anime cards better for the TCG. |
|
#247 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 150) Aetonyx Flame SPELL / Normal Spell Destroy all non-FIRE Fiend-Type monsters on the field, then you can Special Summon 1 FIRE Fiend-Type monster from your Graveyard. You cannot conduct your Battle Phase the turn you activate this card. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Aetonyx_Flame |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 I don't think this'd be viable today, even with Gorlag as an actual card. |
|
#246 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 150) Gorlag FIRE / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1000 (Fiend / Effect) This card gains 500 ATK for every FIRE monster on the field. When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the Gravyard, Special Summon it to your field in Attack Mode as a FIRE monster at the end of the Battle Phase. If this card is removed from the field, destory all monsters Special Summoned this way. This card cannot attack your opponent directly. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Gorlag |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 There's some pretty decent FIRE monster support, but it's not very strong and has some pretty bad side-effects. |
|
#245 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 149) Toon Rollback SPELL / Normal Spell Activate only when a Toon monster's attack is negated by an opponent's Trap Card. You can conduct a second Battle Phase this turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Toon_Rollback_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 So their version is actully worse than ours. (#24) |
|
#244 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 149) Charm of Lamentation SPELL / Continuous Spell During your Battle Phase, if a monster you control attacks an opponent's monster that isn't destroyed by that battle, draw 1 card. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Charm_of_Lamentation |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Kaiba was pretty desperate to get something he could use to turn the Duel in his favor. |
|
#243 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 149) Toon Mask TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only when your opponent Summons a monster. Tribute 1 Toon monster, then Special Summon 1 Toon monster from your hand or Deck with the same name as the Summoned monster. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Toon_Mask_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Unfortunately, by this point in the anime, Toons are more like the TCG. |
|
#242 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 146) Magical Academy SPELL / Quick-Play Spell Discard 2 cards. Perform a Tribute Summon of 1 Spellcaster-Type monster in your hand. That monster gains 500 ATK and its Level is raised by 2. This turn, negate the effects of your opponent's Spell or Trap Cards that target the Summoned monster. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Magical_Academy |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 At least there's some protection for the Spellcaster given how risky it is to Tribute Summon |

|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Looked like a powerhouse on TV, but that was only because players had less starting Life Points. |
|

Rating: 1 out of 5 You don't need to control them, but you're the one paying for the effect. |
|

|
Rating: 2 out of 5 This should stop a fair bit, but won't work today due to Link Monster popularity. |
|

|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Still beats our version of this card and Soul Exchange. (#41) |
|
#233 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 141) Surprise Attack from Beyond SPELL / Normal Spell Activate only during the End Phase. You can conduct a second Battle Phase this turn using a monster that was Normal or Special Summoned this turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Surprise_Attack_from_Beyond |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Yami Marik's strategy was still risky, but there are some monsters where this'd be useful. |
|
#232 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 141) Swallowtail Spike Lizard DARK / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 1900 / DEF 700 (Reptile* / Effect) During each of your Standby Phases, while this card is in face-up Defense Positon, gain 1000 Life Points. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Swallowtail_Spike_Lizard *Monster Type is speculation as anime card's Monster Type is unknown. |
|
Rating: 3 out of 5 Wouldn't last long in Defense Mode, but that's really the only downside here. |
|

|
Rating: 1 out of 5 A bit better than the TCG version of Graverobber (#72), but the opponent gets a free draw. |
|
#229 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 138) Vampiric Leech EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 500 / DEF 1200 (Insect / Effect) This card can attack on the first turn of the Duel. During the End Phase, if this card attacked, you can discard 1 card to change this card to Defense Position. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Vampiric_Leech |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Barring an absurd amount of Equip Cards, it's perfectly harmless. |
|

|
#227 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 134) Double Spell SPELL / Normal Spell Activate any number of Spell Cards your opponent activated during their last turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Double_Spell_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 It would've had much more potential in the early days, and is a bit of a double-edged sword. |
|
#226 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 134) Final Attack Orders TRAP / Continuous Trap While this card is face-up on the field, all monsters on the field are changed to Attack Position and cannot change battle positions. When this card is activated, both players choose 3 cards from their Deck and send the rest to the Graveyard. The chosen cards become each player's respective new Deck. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Final_Attack_Orders_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Already a risky card, but now it comes down to maybe a turn or two that may cost you the Duel anyway. |
|
#225 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 133) Magician's Selection TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only when an opponent's monster attacks while you control a face-up Spellcaster-Type monster. Negate the attack, then destroy 1 face-up monster your opponent controls with the lowest ATK. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Magician%27s_Selection |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Amounts to little more than a Trap Card version of Fissure. (#26) |
|
#224 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 132) Magical Trick Mirror TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only when an opponent's monster attacks. Activate 1 Spell Card from your opponent's Graveyard. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Magical_Trick_Mirror_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Attacking is a pretty risky time to play a Spell Card, but some are pretty potent. |
|

|
Rating: 3 out of 5 It won't be +5 every time, but 5 turns is a long time and your hand will likely change by then. |
|

|

|
Rating: 2 out of 5 The TCG version (#42) would've been fine with "You can only use this effect once per turn". |
|
#220 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 131) Necromancy SPELL / Normal Spell Special Summon 4 random monsters from your opponent's Graveyard to their field in face-up Defense Position.

|
#218 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 131) Card Guard SPELL / Quick-Play Spell Activate only by discarding 1 card. This turn, monsters you control cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Card_Guard_(anime) |

|
#216 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 131) Thirst for Compensation SPELL / Quick-Play Spell Activate only when your opponent adds a card(s) to their hand, except during their Draw Phase. Special Summon 2 Level 4 or lower monsters from your hand. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Thirst_for_Compensation |
|

|
#215 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 131) Disgraceful Charity TRAP / Normal Trap Both players can return all cards discarded by a Spell Card's effect this turn from their Graveyard to their hand. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Disgraceful_Charity |

Rating: 3 out of 5 A much better Negate Attack. (#27) |
|
#213 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 129) Lullaby of Obedience SPELL / Normal Spell Declare the name of a Level 8 or higher monster. If that card is in your opponent's Deck, you can pay 1000 Life Points to add that card from their Deck to your hand. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Lullaby_of_Obedience_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Certainly better than the TCG card. (#11) |
|
#212 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 129) Enemy Controller SPELL / Normal Spell Pay 1000 Life Points, then activate 1 of these effects. ● Select 1 monster your opponent controls and destroy it. ● Select 1 monster your opponent controls and take control of it. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Enemy_Controller_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Having to input codes already makes the card bad, but it also costs 1000 Life Points. |
|
#211 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 129) Spell Sanctuary SPELL / Continuous Spell When this card is activated, both players add 1 Spell Card from their Deck to their hand. While this card is face-up on the field, both players can activate Spell Cards during their opponent's turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Spell_Sanctuary |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Pretty balanced, but that also makes the card weaker. |
|
#210 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 127) Nightmare Mirror TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only by discarding 1 card when an opponent's monster attacks. Negate the attack, then inflict 1000 damage to your opponent. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Nightmare_Mirror |

Rating: 1 out of 5 The only real harm you do is the 1000 damage. |
|
#209 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 126) Dark Wall of Wind SPELL / Quick-Play Spell You take no battle damage from direct attacks this turn. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Dark_Wall_of_Wind |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 Largely worse than Waboku. (#44) |
|
#208 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 124) Plasma Eel DARK / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 500 / DEF 1200 (Machine / Effect) This card cannot be destroyed by battle. When this card is Summoned, you can equip this card to 1 monster your opponent controls as an Equip Card. The equipped monster cannot be Tributed and loses 500 ATK at each of your opponent's End Phases. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Plasma_Eel |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 If nothing else, it'll be able to defend you as long as you don't use its other effect. |
|
#207 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 124) Tribute Burial SPELL / Normal Spell This turn, if you would Tribute Summon a Level 5 or higher monster, you can Normal Summon that monster by removing from play 1 monster from both players' Graveyards. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Tribute_Burial_(anime) |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 By choosing to run Helpoemer, Marik had to use something this bad just to play it. |
|
#206 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 123) Spell of Pain SPELL / Quick-Play Spell This turn, you can inflict any damage you take to another player's Life Points. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Spell_of_Pain_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 Probably won't amount to much in most cases and for big damage, it's quite risky. |
|
#205 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 120) Exodia Necross DARK / Ritual Monster* / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 0 (Spellcaster / Ritual / Effect) This card can only be Ritual Summoned with the Ritual Spell Card "Contract with Exodia".

|
Rating: 2 out of 5 We saw what happened when the pieces are gone, but it remains on the field, unlike the real card. (#20) |
|
#204 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 120) Contract with Exodia SPELL / Ritual Spell Activate only by paying 2000 Life Points when "Exodia the Forbidden One", "Right Arm of the Forbidden One", "Left Arm of the Forbidden One", "Right Leg of the Forbidden One" and "Left Leg of the Forbidden One" are in your Graveyard. Ritual Summon 1 "Exodia Necross" from your hand. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Contract_with_Exodia_(anime) |
|
Rating: 2 out of 5 At least the steep price is justified with a pretty potent monster. |
|

|
#202 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 117) Vessel of Illusion TRAP / Normal Trap Activate only when a Spirit monster is destroyed. Special Summon 1 "Sprit Token" with the same Level, Attribute, ATK and DEF as the destroyed monster. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Vessel_of_Illusion |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 The Token may survive, but most of the Sprit monsters have poor stats. |
|
#201 (from Yu-Gi-Oh Episode 117) Ground Breaking TRAP / Normal Trap Add 1 Spirit monster from your Graveyard to your hand. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Ground_Breaking |
|
Rating: 1 out of 5 They're about as bad in your hand as they are on the field. |
