Obelisk Force



Obelisk Force (オベリスク・フォース Oberisuku Fōsu) is an elite group of Duel Soldiers with the highest rank at Duel Academy in Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V. All of its members wear blue uniforms and helmets designed after "Obelisk the Tormentor". Their rank is based on the Obelisk Blue rank from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX.

Past
Three years ago, Leo Akaba, the Professor of Duel Academy, and several Obelisk Force members caught Selena and Declan trying to escape. They captured Selena and took her away as per Leo's orders, then placed an interdimensional teleportation device on Declan's wrist, which sent him back to the Standard Dimension from whence he came.

Arc League Championship
When Selena appeared in the Standard Dimension, she eventually warned Declan that the Obelisk Force would come to pursue her. Therefore, Declan organized the third round of the Junior Arc League Championship into a city-wide Battle Royal. As Declan expected, Obelisk Force eventually interfered, as three Duel Soldiers captured Ashley, Bram and Carl, sealing them in cards. This was witnessed by Yuya Sakaki, who proceeded to fall into a state of rage and challenge them. Despite Obelisk Force attacking Yuya repeatedly, they were shocked to see him apparently unfazed. Six other Duel Soldiers appeared before Selena, but were intercepted by the Senior participants of the ALCS. Yuya swiftly defeated the three Obelisk Force members with "Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon". When Hikage returned to the Volcano Area, three of the Obelisk Force were gone, and the remaining three defeated all of the Senior Duelists and sealed them in cards, save Yuu Sakuragi, who was rescued by Yugo. Yugo defeated all three of the Obelisk Force at once by turning their own card effects against them. Three more Obelisk Force members surrounded Zuzu Boyle, who was disguised as Selena, but Yuri approached them and dismissed them to assist Dennis Macfield.

Friendship Cup Finals
After hearing Dennis' report, Leo gave Barrett a new mission to go to the Synchro Dimension with the Obelisk Force to capture Zuzu and Selena.

Deck
All Obelisk Force members use "Ancient Gear" decks. Their strategy relies on using "Ancient Gear Hound Dog" to deal effect damage, and Fusion Monsters using "Ancient Gear Hound Dog" as a Fusion Material to destroy the opponents field while dealing effect damage when the opponent's monsters are destroyed. They are heavily reliant on Battle Royal rules, as they often defeat their opponents not with power but through sheer numbers with multiple members attacking the same opponent at once.
