Forum:Who would win in a duel? Yugi, Jaden, or Yusei?!!!

I was wondering who do you think is the stronger duelist of the three? Take Yami Yugi without the Egyptian God Cards but with his deck from battle city, Jaden from season 4 of GX, and then of course Yusei from 5D's all in the same room who would come out victorious? Kalel lsok 20:39, 18 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Jaden would win because he has Yubel. LOL              Jaden would win!!!! he saved the world!!!!!!!


 * In before deleted. Rodtheanimegod4ever 20:45, 18 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I want to say Yusei Fudo but Yugi Muto and Jaden Yuki are both lucksacks so it would probably be one of them. By the way I don't relly watch the shows anymore. -- Dragon of chaos 22:37, 18 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Please don't ignore the line Be sure to sign your edits with four tildes: ~ . And Yami Yugi would win out of them. But "Little" Yugi, with his deck from Millennium World, would beat any of the three of them. -- Deltaneos 08:46, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, interesting, but i guess i would choose Yugi purely because of his belief in the heart of the cards. While Jaden is sitting back having fun he's being demolished by Yugi's belief. As for Yusei im not too sure. DragonDude 23:07, 25 May 2008 (UTC)


 * The heart of the cards is BS made up by 4krap to preach at seven year olds. Rodtheanimegod4ever 23:32, 25 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Millenium pieces are just as real. Zeek Aran 23:53, 25 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Actually, "heart of the cards" as a concept was used in the first few episodes of the Japanese version. Mostly forgotten by Battle City, though. Danny Lilithborne 00:20, 26 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree that Yugi should win. --Dragon Slayer (Contribs • Count) 00:06, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Kaiba beats them all hands down...but out of those three...we have not seen Yusei duel enough to know, but between Yugi and Jaden that last GX episode answers that question. Dmaster (Contribs • Count) 00:17, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, Kaiba's such an awesome duelist that the only time he ever beat Yugi was when he threatened suicide if he lost. Danny Lilithborne 00:20, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah I perfer murder...umm forget I said that. Dmaster (Contribs • Count) 00:43, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Joey still owns them all. Getting up after being struck by Winged Dragon of Ra and still winning = BAD. ASS. Rodtheanimegod4ever 00:57, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * And he got beat up by tristen. Dmaster (Contribs • Count) 01:29, 26 May 2008 (UTC)


 * you guys shouldn't play with yourselves as zane is the real winner Mercinater 02:37, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I haven't seen much of the later seasons of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, but I hear Zane becomes really bad. His social skills might even match his duelling skills at that point. Okay that's an exaggeration, but nope, no way would Zane beat Yugi. -- Deltaneos 12:35, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Not true. Zane loses exactly once, and only because he gets blown up by his own Power Bond. I doubt he's at Yugi's level yet, but he's fairly close, as are Aster and The D. Rodtheanimegod4ever 17:50, 29 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Nightshroud powns!!! and Marik Ishtar is awwwwwwesome, oh and sorry for all the Ws it's my fave letter, yeah I know it's creepy. -- Dragon of chaos 04:57, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yanno, Yubel is technically undefeated. Danny Lilithborne 08:56, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
 * As is Raphael. His one loss was because he did himself in. Rodtheanimegod4ever 17:50, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Téa and Serenity are technically undefeated. -- Deltaneos 17:54, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * It's a really difficult question for me... Jaden and Yugi are too lucky, but Yusei doesn't need luck, so I choose Yusei. --Rein Weiss Ritter 18:48, 27 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Somehow I feel that their duel will not reach to the end (maybe Interupted, cutted out), with an advantage for Atem (Yugi). If it would reach to the end, I would like to see Yugi or Yusei win (Jaden hasn't good enough xD) --Blackwings0605 14:53, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

YUGI
I think Yugi should win, preferbaly Atem if hes playing :)! Atem Mutou 18:40, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

i think i would win. but im not an anime character :( Mini neos 16:58, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

It should already be a foregone conclusion that, as long as Yugi has the "God Draw", he won't lost to either of them. He's the Lucksack/ Topdecking King of Games. So I don't see him losing. Plus, he just crushed Judai in the last episode of GX.
 * Proof? Rodtheanimegod4ever 18:00, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

jaden didnt play the cards right. if i got the same luckydraws against yugi, i would have crushed him. and i wouldnt have crushed my self! HA! Mini neos 17:22, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

I say Judai would win because of his lucky draws. Some say that he cheats.

he uses bubblemans effect all wrong, and he summons monsters in face-up defense mode! whats next? face-down attack mode? Mini neos 05:17, 30 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Umm... that was Bubbleman's effect before he was a real card. No "wrongness" there. Rodtheanimegod4ever 06:45, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

yugi and yusei
in anime, i choose yami yugi or atem. but in real live i choose yusei.

I like how you mention "in real life." I have to agree with you on that, in real life, Yusei would be the best of all. Yu-Gi-Oh Rules! 21:19, 13 August 2008 (UTC) rd with over Yusei has like two ca2000 atk points, jaden is small, so is yugi.

Though Yusei could execute a 1 turn 3 kill. So I say Yusei.

Obviously Judai Yuki...
Well, I'd say Jaden because like yeah Yusei just plain sucks to me and yeah, Yugi is pretty decent becuase I don't really he think he's the king of games...plus Yubel is within Jaden. I think Jaden owns them all! Sorry if i dissapointed yall... Gotcha!

JADEN RULES! He's better than better with his strategie and fusions than the stupid egyptian gods and StarDust Dragon. My neibors have stardust,and dark magician crud, and i can beat them alot. BUT my other neibor is making an elemental hero/neo spacian deck and he is hard to beat! P.S I have a (GX) style Frog Deck.

Tie...
Okay, I would practically never choose Jaden, he's just too... too... too light, too unconcentrated on the game for me.

Between Yugi and Yusei? To tell you the truth, I think it would be a tie. I mean, they're both about equal in my book.

Both equally good at dueling, and equally concentrated.

But Jaden? Not a chance.

Just my opinion.

Yu-Gi-Oh Rules! 01:09, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

== JADEN'S TOP MONSTERS ARE YUBEL, NEOS, HIS NEOS AND ELEMENTALFUSION AND ULTIMATE MONSTER IS NEOS ULTIMATE GOD

YUGI'S TOP MONSTERS ARE DARK MAGICIAN ,BLACK LUSTURE SOLDIER,MAGICIAN OF BLACK CHAOS, DARK PALADIN AND ULTIMATE MONSTER IS THE EGYPTIAN GODS , THE LEGENDARY DRAGONS IF HE HAD

I DON'T HAVE ANY IDEAS ABOUT YUSEI BECAUSE I HAVEN'T SEEN IT ==

Yusei!

 * Out of those 3, Yusei would so win. He's not a freakin' lucksack like Yugi and jaden, he has true skill. If you add in other duelists, I'd say Kaiba or Raphael. Bluedog187 01:18, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

i havent seen 5d's yet but so far yugi would flaten jaden if he's his little self or yami yugi because it mensions in gx that jadens duels where all fixed inhis fist year at the academy when banner turns out to be a shadow rider he qotes ''youre duels have been set up to give you practice for when you duel kagimarou'' bawnsy 08:57, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

"Heart of the cards" is a good thing to go by. Have you ever been in a situation were only one card in your deck can help you and you have faith and draw that card?happend to me a lot of times.

m.o.g.overload

~w/o the heart of the cards thing... i think yugi still pawns them all... but in the tcg rules i think yusei... in strategy much of 3 equal... its just they are all damn good...

Have you watched the show 5D's yet, Bluedog187? In the first episode, Yusei says, "My cards... I believe in you... Pull through for me." If that isn't luck, what is? I agree with your opinion, though. :) Yusei does have awesome skill.

Yu-Gi-Oh Rules! 20:25, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Of course I've seen it. What I meant was that he was able to win with the old man's deck and that crappy criminal deck. Being able to win no matter what cards you have sounds like true skill to me. Bluedog187 16:46, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree with Bluedog187. Dmaster (Contribs • Count) 02:39, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Good point. I agree, but remember he said in both cases something like, "Come on. Let's show the old man your true power!" and something simular to that when using the criminal deck. I agree, that does sound like skill, but it also sounds like luck. All I'm saying is, Yusei has and uses a mixture of great skill and belief in his cards(luck). Yu-Gi-Oh Rules! 00:17, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Yusei. Maybe not as he is now, but he has the potential to be much, much better. He's the least reliant on "luck of the draw," and it helps that his deck would be the most useful of the three in real life. Rodtheanimegod4ever 06:45, 24 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I think Yusei is just as reliant, if not most reliant on luck. It just doesn't stand out because he doesn't put as much drama into it, like saying "C'mon Heart of the Cards" or "There's only one card in my Deck that can win this". Or it's not made as obvious like with Joey who uses lots of coin flip, die roll, random selection cards. If you think about Yusei uses a lot of cards that are useless in most situations (even most situations generated by his Deck), yet he always only draws them when he needs them. He always gets just the card he needs when he uses "Nitro Synchron's" effect, he only drew "Limit Break" when he was able to use it and needed it, he drew "Speed Spell - Synchro Return", the one time he ever removed a Synchro Monster from play and many other similar situations. Unless he changes the contents of his Deck alot, so these cards are supported, they are incredibly lucky draws. And let's not forget how lucky he was in his Duel with Takasu. -- Deltaneos (talk) 13:47, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Anyone ever hear of a "Side Deck" thats where most of my "special" cards are when i know im going to need them in certain duels! This is where these cards are coming from! And Yusei Rocks so hard that it would take both yugi and jaden to team up just to beat him. Then jaden would turn evil and sneak attack yugi, but yugi would be ready and counter it with something mental and summon his Dark Magician Girl and wipe him out xD (love the DMG :P) ALL OF THEM WOULD END UP IN A DRAW
 * HOWEVER** this a free for all and in the end id say Yusei would win. and if anyone starts saying that Believing is the same as Luck then your WRONG! big time. sorry but its the truth. and the only people that say that dont have a bond with there decks like every TRUE duelist does. (yeah geek man xD haha)

I say Jaden
because hes a major top decker and with his evil hero deck i think he'd win.


 * Hehe, that does seem true. The top decking would be useful. OsmiuMap 22:12, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Jaden
Come on it has to be Jaden since he is the best. Airblade86 21:40, 13 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I'd have to go with Yugi since his name means 'game' doesn't it? OsmiuMap 22:12, 13 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Yugi means game? didnt know that

Yeah i sure "yugioh" means king of games :)


 * I think yusei means planetary. Jaden would definitely win because he is the only actual good duellist because yugi has atem and yusei has super signer powers, and jaden has nothing(except yubel in series 4 and he barly uses it) and if that stuff was taken away jaden would win easily.


 * if you look at their aces : dark magician, neos, stardust stardust would win but if you look at the best card they can summon using the aces(mirage Knight:yugi,magestic star dragon:yusei,rainbow neos:jaden) jaden clearly wins and jaden's is the only one that lasts more than a turn

Yusei
Good news the 5D's has come out in english so you can see that Yusei's the best. Nidzajojo

Yugi. Yu-Gi-Oh! See? The game is named after him, so that is already a huge advantage! Besides that, he has the best lucksack abilities. He could bust out the Jack-King-Queen combo by turn 2 and summon DM for 2500 direct damage, putting him at a huge lead. Or even on his first turn with Card Destruction/ Monster Reborn

At least that is what I would like to say. But since NOONE plays with MST, Harpies Feather Duster, Dust Tornado, or other continuous magic destroying cards, Yusei would win due to speed world's 2000 damage per spell effect. Or Scrap Iron Scarecrow's effect. But with an updated deck, Yugi hands down.

71.103.220.196 18:50, 6 October 2008 (UTC) - I'm sorry, this is my first time posting in a wiki and I seem to have screwed up the formatting somehow X_X Really sorry.

Although, one thing I don't get from GX... God Cards can only be affected by magic for 1 turn, so wouldn't Jaden have won the final duel had he not attacked Slifer? Then the dragon would have just gone to the graveyard and Jaden could have direct attacked with neos... or am I missing some card they played that negates this ruling? 71.103.220.196 18:48, 6 October 2008 (UTC)ＢＳＤ
 * I think that monsters of Divine-Beast type only go back after one turn, but since Yugi changed Osiris to a warrior type it will stay out on the field. -- Sub 03:49, 7 October 2008 (UTC)


 * But again, Jaden's goal is to have fun, not being seriously. --FredCat100 20:08, February 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * 3 things:

1 the duel never ended so Jaden could definitely pulled something of and if couldn't he wouldn't of attacked.

2 it was the last episode of gx and they wanted to end with some thong exiting like picture of neos taking on slifer

3 if jaden had attacked with shining flare wingman he would have won

I think yusei will win because he has alot of power full monster like stardust dragon, junk

archer and expecually goyo gardian because can gain monster and he is play by 5d's rules

Tea
She's 7-0, and therefore the only recurring character to never lose a dual. She defeats Joey 5 times at the beginning of the series at the high school (that's right, Tea Gardner is responsible for about half of Dualist Kingdom Semi-finalist Joey Wheeler's known losses), she defeats Mai with the power of friendship, and she takes out Crump in the virtual world. She never dueled against Yugi, but with the power of friendship, how could she lose.

Me
i say i beat them all my zombies are dang near unstoppable Lets see them get out five monsters on their first turn

it would never be jaden,his deck is shocking compared to yugi's or yusei's. I would have to say yusei though, sure all of them have luck but yusei shows more skill, but then again he uses synchro's which to be honest are better than all cards than the other 2 use, if yusei didnt have his synchros it would be yugi to win.

Blood-Stained-Doz 15:08, 9 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Yusei has skill, Jaden has Yubel, and Yugi has luck or "the heart of the cards" --Tantara 22:19, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

yugi would win... not with his deck at battle, but with the deck he duelled against yugi. for those of you who don't know, I mean the battle where the pharaoh would go away if Yugi moto wins. jaden yuki is just a big noob with his weak elemental heroes, but when the heroes combine they are hard to beat

yugi man?
whats wrong with you people, atems' the pharaoh

THE KING OF FREAKING GAMES!, common yugi is just tight, hes so cool and honest yet bold. little yugi is cool too, but atem is the man. Jaden? knock off. yusei?(who?) plus, atem is cool enough to have MIND CRUSH!. shadow realm games. should i go on? yes. anyone thats seen the anime knows how cool he is.

Yugi is the Pharaoh (Not anymore after final episode), Jaden is a reincarnation of the Supreme King+Yubel (Yet it hardly matters), And Yusei is a Signer-at-birth (Different from Crow, who just got it for no good reason.) Yusei was also helped by a God-like futuristic figure. Oracle Fefe 21:14, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

 * I say Yugi will win, He runs Gadgets!!!! and we all know gadgets are awsome!!! And knowing his luck it wouldn't be surprising for him to win. I wonder if he would run royal oppression...That would screw over both Jaden and Yusei so much lol. Ok hmms...I summon Yubel..I pay! >< ok...I summon STARDUST...Pay!. Win! lol (Also I am going off of if they actually HAD a legit duel with 8k LP, and if their deck types were as powerful as possible in the real game. I would say...Yugi wins, with Gadgets.)--Takuma. 01:45, 6 March 2009 (UTC)


 * PLEASE, Atem is the king of games, he controls every monster and if I'm not making a mistake now, Atem MADE the cards 3000 or 5000 years ago in Egypt. He maybe has lost his memory, but he still knows the feelings and all that stuff. Not only that makes Atem invincible, he believes in The Heart Of The Cards, damn it! Plus he can feel wich card is wich (just as he did when he duelled with Yugi, the Ceremonial Battle) he can draw any card at any time, for Gods sake! So, deal with it you cursed Yusei and Jaden lovers, Yugi owns ya all and there is noooooothing you can do about it-a... --Dark-Magician 15:42, 6 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I dunno. Personally I think that anyone who ACTUALLY RUNS a card like Ragnarok, not to mention using it against a monster that it really doesn't affect is just asking to DIE (though I'll admit that Yami's Catapult Turtle Flying Castle Gambit is pretty awesome).  I'd vote Yusei, as Stardust rocks, and his deck is actually pretty decent.  As to the whole luck thing, that really applies to all three main characters.97.126.222.108 12:25, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Yusei
I vote for him because out of all of them, he is the only one that isn't too angsty and isn't too much of a happy go lucky 'tard' that I get tired of his personality after a number of episodes. Not to mention in this series the female miss Aki Izayoi actually has most if not all of her cards coming out instead of just some like with poor Asuka who was sooo demoted to being a third party character.

Out of the yugi, yuki and yusei things.. It goes least liked to most liked. The only thing I hate is that all of them eventually move into the 'dueling to save the world' bit and stay there.. for-ev-er! Not to mention all three of the main characters used warriors to an extent, more so yuki and yusei then yugi who was more mish-mash. Oh and also I don't like yugi because he depended on his 'partner' too much in the whole series and no one ever really seemed to notice the things like height growth and attitude changing.. and a sudden drop in tone of voice but blah it's fantasy so whatever. There's my vote.

Sandy Sagebrush 09:06, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

I'm going to have to go with Yugi on this one. As much as I detest yugi he has the magical item that turns him into a beast of a deulist who is undefeatable unless he chooses to loose. The only time I even remember Yugi losing was to kaiba and that was due to the suicide factor. If I remember correctly little yugi had to throw a b!@# fit to convicnce Atem to surrender.

Peronsally you put all these duelists in a room with a sword a pistol, a spear, and a banana and Kaiba's going to walk out to that room holding a blood stained banana. >.>

I would say Yusei, because of synchros, without them it would be Yugi Muto. If any character could be chosen i would say Akiza Izinski, purely because of Black Rose Dragon and she duels in such an angry way if she lost she would kill you sort of thing lol.

Doz Bate 20:54, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

if you could pick anyone i would pick aster phoenix because of his semi-undefetableness(he only loses to jaden) and his destiny heroes

jaden
they are all awesome but i just say jaden because he's my favorite.

Has to be Yusei
He defends against attacks like no other, and then swarms to overpower his opponent. You also have to look at the aces. Stardust is better than Neos and Dark Magician. And with others that have big effects plus this new Savior Star Dragon card. Jaden would lose in the first few turns because he doesn't play defense well, and Yugi would lose because he doesn't have enough fire power. Yugi could summon one or two strong monsters, but to keep them coming to match Yusei, he can't come close. Yusei in 8 turns. Messengerofthedark 03:52, 20 April 2009 (UTC)Messengerofthedark

Yuki Judai
My choice woud have to be Jaden.He has insane combos to pull off.Miracle Flipper with Hero Blast.Convert Contact, Cocoon Party, Contact, then Space Gift.Not to mention the tons of De-fusion combos he has with his fusions.He has Yubel as well which can pull off a win easy with Neos for Wiseman.All Yugi does is blatantly cheat of just pulls his luck cards out of nowhere.I liked Yugi in the beginnig, but then he just started to cheat too much.He just so happened to have all his best cards at once in the first turn.Yusei is pretty good though.His deck mostly bridges his cards so he can get them out.Like Junk Synchron then Speed Warrior for Junk Warrior then Nitro Synchron for Nitro Warrior.SO in the end it will probably come down to Jaden and Yusei

Yu-Gi-Oh

Jaden has skill and this 5Ds guy is the same but Yami Yugi would stategize more profound and ahead of time he knew his opponets moves and equal exchanged blow for blow. Yugi used more combos and always had more than a back up plan to his advantage. Jaden and This new guy is ok but yugi is more than capeable of mopping the florr with them both with or without god cards. Hes proven this to us on more than one occations actually defeating the god cards when niether of those slobs has been able to knock them down. Anyone else defeat a god card?....nope sure not.

Jaden
With Yubel on him he will be un-defeatable, if he is only going to use the Evil Hero Monster cards, one of the most Powerful Monsters when they are just successfully summoned. With Jaden's Rainbow Neos, with high attack points and can just return monsters on the field back to the deck, poor Synchro Monsters. With Yugi using the god cards which are really illegal, he must not use that. Jaden will probably win.

dont start predicting yet
just wait for this duel to air and then we will see who wins Sartorias 09:47, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

yugi GOD CARDS if youlot forgot.
 * Gumby. Danny Lilithborne 14:41, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

listen to me carefuly, yugi would beat jaden and yusei because yugi is the original yugioh hero, he is the KING of games, he has 3 gods, he saved the world from the shadows twice, he beat kaiba, pegasus, marick, 3 gods, seal of orichalchos, leviathan, zork, exodia, reshef, bakura, yusei and jaden can not serpass him


 * Wrong, it was Atem who do all duels, Yugi had only like 1-2 duels, once for Rebecca (to deal with Blue-Eyes White Dragon card) and once again against his partner (end). But all other are by Atem, as of his look. So I am sorry, you lost. --FredCat100 20:16, February 15, 2010 (UTC)

Depends
If they were using hteir decks it would be Yugi but Yusei has the most skill. Even if yugi could use syncros in a different deck yusei would stil win

10th Anniversary Video
Well, when they release the 10th Anniversary Video that will feature the 3 Dueling, that will be when we find out who would win between the 3~MEOW~ Might of the BIRD Empire 05:05, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Definitely Yugi
Come on guys. If Yugi is the King of Games, what would we call Jaden or Yusei? The Grandmaster of Game Emperor... Thing! No but in all seriousness, Yugi. He tends to build his decks with lots of balance. I'm also sure that if he built a deck with the new cards that have come out, he would have some amazing super Deus ex Machina deck that allows him to trump everyone else. He also has the God Monsters, and Black Luster Soldier Messenger of Creation, several of the more broken cards in the game. He also plays a lot of cards that give him more special summon and draw power. I think the only way Yusei could top him is that Yusei specializes in Turbo Duels, and Yugi would have to get the hang of it before hand. But in any case, I've gone on brown nosing Yugi long enough. xD--Overlordzorc 06:52, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

dont fight it
are you a fortune tellers like sartorius because u know anything cant be predicted as jaden said when he duels sartorius so when the duel air watch it and then you will learn who has won got that Sartorias 07:25, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

None of them, yugi would get blown up yubel,yugi would blow up yusei with Slifer,jaden would get blown up by savior star dragon, the end.--Airbellum 07:43, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Lol is that a joke, Yugi would win with no questions asked. -Arcangel- 22:46, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Anyone but Yugi
Yugi's Battle City deck is impossible to actually win with and only won duels because his opponents were also using decks that are impossible to win with. As for Jaden and Yusei, if Jaden was using either his Season 1 deck or his Season 2 deck, he might stand a tough fight against Yusei. I don't know enough about Yusei to give a proper opinion, but I'll say this: Yugi loses in 3rd place, and then Yusei edges ahead of Jaden to win a struggle. By the way, even in the Doma arc, Yugi's deck was impossible (too many cards, all don't connect together). --WeezleBeezle 17:40, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree on that Yugi's deck wouldn't work in real life. I'd like to see Konami make 100% accurate decks of all three of them, actually shuffle, have three random guys play a duel using those decks, record what happens in that duel, and use it for an anime special (and yes, I'm aware of the announced 10th Anniversary thingie).  Wouldn't that be interesting?  An actual random duel that wasn't scripted.  --209.112.94.77 23:49, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I actually agree on this one. Yugi couldn't win. His deck is virtually mashed up with monsters that have no synergy. It's basically a bunch of Spellcaster, Warriors, Fiends, Beasts, Fairies and what-not. It has virtually only one copy of each card. Well, considering Yugi's random head... and deck, he'd only have one of each card. As for Yusei and Jaden... they're much more believable when winning. Why? Well... if you run an Elemental Hero deck, you should be at least aware that you'd be needing more than one freaking copy of Polymerization as well as three copies of each Elemental hero monster. And... for his Neos, Neo-Spacian and Yubel decks... there are plenty of ways to Special Summon a monster from the hand or deck. Yusei's deck is pretty much... okay by far. I don't see anything people would be b*tching about it not being able to win normally. However, I would like to note that, even in the Yu-Gi-Oh video games where all three of them are laughably weak and predictable in terms of startegy, Yugi goes down faster than Yusei and Jaden. Seriously. Even my Billy Decks have easily beaten Yugi's deck. Billy Decks, mind you. And they don't have any splashable cards in them at all. Yusei and Jaden did put up one heck of a fight though when I used the same Billy Decks against them. (P. S. In real life, there is no way Yugi's deck could win and what-not. Heart of the cards my butt. Luck is the only way. ;P) -- S.S. 3:29 January 19, 2010

Think again !
I think YuGi will own the duel because he's not only calm but also quick response. Besides, he always has some backup plan for any circumstance ... And someone said that the deck he used is not balance. Of course it's not balance but the point is that he know his deck and the way to use it !

The truth is in each of their own show they would be the best. If they dueled in YuGiOh (original) Yugi wins, in 5d Yusei would win, in gx Jaden would win becaue the show obviously cheats for the heroe. However if yugi had the egyptian gods he would win, when I say yugi I mean the big one and the small one when they are one persone since yugi is the reincarnation of atem aka pharaoh aka yugioh they are the same personne. Plus yusei and jaden are just following in yugi's footsteps since he was THE ORIGINAL. Plus remember the show is named after YUGI whether it's YUGIoh gx or YUGIoh 5d Yugi does not depend on atem they are the same personne from a difent time and he can controle the draw. But seriously the show cheats for all three. And by the way Kaiba beats Zane, White Dragon beats Cyber Dragon.

I would coose Yusei, but... didn't he add a card to his deck in the middle of a duel?


 * For that question, there was only 1 card had been added, it's Majestic Dragon. Only twice by mental. --FredCat100 20:25, February 15, 2010 (UTC)

yugi
i dont know about yusei but yugioh killed jaden at the end of yugioh GX, they may not have showed it because jaden cried to alot when he lost thats why yugi should never work with loser, by the way the joke is from yugioh the abridged series.

Yugi Would Win
No one seems to remember that yugi was dueling at the start with only 4000 LP at the start. Heart of the Cards with Millennium Items not a force to be messed with! We all know how the Yugi vs. Jaden duel went so if by some way Jaden beats Yusei he will still lose but Yusei has more skill then Jaden so Jaden will lose first by a land slide but the Yugi Yusei duel will be a closer match, but Yugi will come out on top as long as he has the Heart of the Cards on his side along with God Cards. Also if they went to the shadow relm only Yugi would survive to walk away without having to duel. Drkylec

People Wake Up!
Jaden is a noob. So, in my opinion, Yusei will get a draw while dueling Yugi because of Yusei's Synchrons, and Yugi because of his almost never loss.

Yugi will
Yugi is the King of Games. If he loses, this will be bad for the first (and only interesting) Yu-Gi-Oh! series/manga. Then, Yugi has the three Egyptian Gods, he is invincible. 'Cause if Yugi must duel one (or both) of them, it will be Yami Yugi/Atem that will face or show himself a the end to achieve his opponent, beacause Yugi can't exist on screen without Yami/Atem (see the last GX Episode). So Yugi will beat all his opponents (confirmation in the next OAV with the 3 heroes).  Y AMIMILLENIUMM ON P ROG. - M E M AILER 15:52, 20 August 2009 (UTC)


 * The 3 gods can be beaten. Yugi's done it, using some crazy Magnet Force shit. But seriously, in a real duel, Yusei's deck and dueling skills are the best. Plus, his ace monster is the only really good one of them all, even though it doesn't have the same kind of support that Neos and Dark Magician have accumulated.

 * Yusei's Aces are Stardust, Savior Star, and maybe Stardust/Assault, but if you combine those, you're unbeatable.--Hydronic 17:02, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Jaden?
If Jaden use his 1st season Deck he would have won.(In real life A Neos Deck is almost rubbish)so If he uses this deck Yami 'll win for sure

draw
o boohoo jaden is too happy and not serious enough, lets say hes a noob!

it would be a draw like the last duel in gx
 * Um... it wasn't a draw. Danny Lilithborne 11:44, 30 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I think that little Yugi would come out as a winner, did you see the last episode of yugioh.

yugi will win you know king of games?--Scott 08 10:23, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

Depends

 * In real life it would probably be Yusei, but in the anime the others always get the luck. By the way,Would someone who knows the answer to this question please reply. When is Abe the Monkey Man's deck/cards shown? I've been re-watching the Grand Championship episodes over and over but I can't spot his cards. Perhaps they're shown very vaguely so I'm missing them? Anyway, please reply someone! (Robbiejennings 10:42, September 2, 2009 (UTC))

depend upon the situation...
real life?still,i go with jaden..his the best..yussie?will waste so much monsters in the field..no chance of winning..by the way,we should take out banned cards so yugi will not win..jaden deck the elemental hero..no dead draw..gotcha

YOU REALLY NEED TO THINK?
Let's see:

yugi: moronic THREE tribute god cards (countless cards to stop god summoning btw), lots of turn to put it off, themeless salad deck( unless he uses the pure magician) , always wins by luck, banned cards still allowed? Has useless friends who always counts on him to save them Prototype for a reason

judai: fast kill, otk possible, evil heroes rules, the impossible destiny draw bs,but hand empties too fast, low firepower, get rid of first fusion and he's gone Beta, close but not there yet

yusei: his defense is really godlike, how many reversal otks already? no kuriboh, synchro fusion( accel sychro?), cool biker, insane creature advantage in one turn, and since series still running, hasn't reached his limits yet.

Go make a guess


 * Judai doesn't use Evil Heroes... that's Haou. And since when do being a "cool biker" or having "useless friends" have ANYTHING to do with a duel? Besides, little Yugi doesn't use the god cards. --Bluedog (Talk) 02:08, September 6, 2009 (UTC)


 * Dude, Yugi has used God cards on more than one occasion... and it's freaking ridiculous that he gets to summon them every time... without any proper support. As for Jaden/Judai, he can (TAKE NOTE that it's "can" not "does") fuse his Elemental Heroes into Evil Heroes. Just add Dark Calling or Dark Fusion. As for the "useless friends" and "cool biker"... I have entirely no idea. But Yugi's deck seems to be the most out-of-place and useless by far. ;P 112.201.152.34 08:08, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

There's actually gonna be a movie about this!
Kinda, I think... http://www.janime.info/main.html

come on
Yugi could take both of them on--Juanton 18:01, September 23, 2009 (UTC)

i know who would win
defintly jaden because he has more luk than the others bold => bold

HA HA HA
what lies RAWR

Always Bet On A God
Smart money's on Yugi, after all he does have the God cards doesn't he? Although Savior Star Dragon can dismantal 2 out of 3 of them...--Azure Knight-Zeo 04:32, September 25, 2009 (UTC)

WERE GONNA FIND OUT SOON!!!
We will find out in the upcoming movie!!!!!! :P

Yugi/Atem
Lol. The farao would win. 3 god cards, heart of the cards and MIND CRUSH (Thats one of the abridged series joke XD)

Jaden is too relaxing to win.

Yusei is just not using any good cards XD.

it'd be between Yugi and Yusei.
Jaden already faced Yugi, and I can tell you right know he lost since it was Neos versus Slifer. Yugi would probably be my vote for this, but Yusei has some skill (with proof being that he wins using cards that people throw away, since he's a satellite). I also think that if Yusei plays Majestic Star Dragon, he might have a chance.

==i say the winner will be yugi because i think that yusei can't defeat jaden because of yubel spirit and the supreme king jaden and jdaden already dueled yugi and he lost so i see that yugi is the winner but in my real life i want jaden to win

Big deal. So what if Jaden has Yubel. Ohh I got an emo psycho spirit helping me win. Jaden may have luck, but Yusei has more skill than Jaden does. Yugi has both though so I know he would win.

Yusei automatically consider the winner since both Yugi and Jaden didn't have their own D-Wheel to compete on Riding Duel... Lanspearsaber 16:37, December 20, 2009 (UTC)NoobYugiohPlayer

Jaden's Yubel card and Card Trooper, Necro Gardna, Elemental hero Divine Neos probably mean he'd win. Although Yugi has Swift Gaia... 88.107.116.42 18:43, December 20, 2009 (UTC)

Just because Jaden has uber cards doesn't mean he'd win. Yugi and Yusei have both proven that it doesn't matter if you have uber cards cause any card can be defeated. Jaden's good, but most of his good game play comes from his luck, and that only gets you so far. Yugi would win because he has the skill and just the right amount of luck.

GoldenSandslash15's Opinion
If the writers were to make this duel, they would cause Jaden/Judai to lose. This is because they want either Yugi to win (to show that the original is still remembered) or Yusei (to promote the "new" show). Between Yugi and Yusei, it would have to be Yugi. The viewers would like that best.

However, ignoring the writers, and if it was simply "characters do what they do on their own," it would be Yusei. Yugi's deck is unplayable by today's standards. His key cards, Dark Magician and Kuriboh, are worthless. A 2500 ATK card can easily be found in a 1-tribute card (probably with a decent effect), and if not for the support cards, Dark Magician would NEVER be played in real life. Kuriboh is just a cutesy card. I can't believe it actually saved Yugi in his duel against Kaiba in the Battle City Finals. Jaden/Judai has WAY too many cards in his deck to ever topdeck without the writers' help. Yusei is still good though, particularly in Turbo Duels.

Finally, we cannot ignore other characters that are strong as well: (Joey/Jyonochi, Kaiba, Zane/Ryo, Chazz/Manaoujme, Jesse/Johan, Jack, Akiza). I think that they (especially Zane/Ryo) are stronger than the main characters of their respective series, ignoring the writers' help.

Now, we know that Yugi and Jaden/Judai dueled at the end of GX, and Yugi won (although the duel was interrupted), so Jaden/Judai will definitely lose this duel. (Jaden/Judai's duel with Dimitri doesn't count, as "no amount of studying you can do will allow you to use somebody else's cards as well as they can." -Zane Truesdale/Kaiser Ryo

Similarly Judai/Jaden vs. Kaibaman doesn't count.

Lastly, we will see the protagonists debut together in the new 10th anniversary film. Although they probably won't duel each other, we can better analyze a duel involving all of them once we actually see the movie.

I don't know how much this info is worth. It's either $0.01 or it's $0.02.

Either it's a penny for my thoughts, or it's just me putting in my two cents.

(Cheesy, I know.)

Oh, and SIGN YOUR COMMENTS PEOPLE!!!!

--GoldenSandslash15 04:29, December 21, 2009 (UTC)

Yusei,,,,
In real life, Yusei would win the duel but if Yugi lost, it would be a bad publicity for the viewers.... I think it would be a draw or somehow Yugi won but not shown just like the epilogue of Yugioh GX. Blackwing Guy 04:53, December 21, 2009 (UTC)

On Deck Structure alone, Jaden/Judai would have the largest advantage, since his cards build on each other moreso than the others. Should each of the characters have access to all of their cards from both the manga's and Anime's, Jaden has the clearest advantage. Yusei would possibly come in second, since his junk deck has some semblance of strategy too. I've Built various versions of Yugi's/Atem's Decks, and they dont stand a snowball's chance in hell against either of the other two, the "King of Games" has no REAL strategy to his deck.

Shadowfox337 07:41, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

yusei's deck will win because its the fastest among the three decks, he can summon a 2500atk stardust in 1 turn and the two others, maybe jaden can outpower stardust with his fusion monsters and yugi's deck in real life is a great bunch of underpowered cards and i can forgive that because he is the pioneer but in today's playing, yusei's deck will win, jaden, maybe but never for yugi's deck unless he unleashes his forbidden cards! but for animewise, YUGI should win or else the creators of the movie will screw up big time! dude he's the King of Games, and the game is named Yugi-Oh, hence his name.

My Two Cents
Even though i don't particularly like Yugi and i do agree Kaiba would leave with a blood stained banana; i would have to say Yugi would win because when you factor in the "King of Games" into determining what his realworld deck would be it; i gotta say it would be awesome. Yusei would have a chance and between the two of them (Yugi & Yusei) it would be a hell of a fight to the end. BTW Jaden loses in 2 turns tops DaywalkerAA 12:21, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

= It depends, but...=

For me I think it's Yusei, not because of his skill because he can compromise by using various decks whether mishmash or useless... I'm not bias, I have watched the 3 seasons, and played the games actually, currently playing 5d's and Gx on psp... I don't have much experience but, since it was a game, the draws can either be bad or good...(even with destiny draw it's still bad T-T)or in short it was totally shuffled...

Yusei- definitely best defense and fast summoning due to synchros Jaden- bad defense, good offense with fusion monsters and other effects... Yugi- he's good... but I don't know if it's lucky draws or what but yeah it's true too much luck, I don't know what his deck concentrates on is it on kuriboh's, dark magicians, magnet warriors etc... whatever... but also has good defense with his kuriboh's and spellbinding, magical harts etc trap cards, his spells are also cool, like change of heart etc etc...

I played Yusei, from weakest to strongest deck, and damn his strongest was definitely strongest.... it's like at first you think you're winning then he makes a comeback when least expected(remember deck shuffled no writers to totally make him win or what!!)...(same with his weakest) I was like hurray!.... dammit! especially with that stupid scarecrow thing ugh!!! plus with jaden's and yugi's deck, since they don't synchro summon they'll have a hard time since you can just summon one monster at a time, and that includes tributing and etc unless you discard your strongest card and draw monster reborn... (except special summon cards) beat him from time to time, but it took a lot of defending and stalling =.= till the good draw (see everyone depends on luck and yugi is not exempted...) although you can wipe Yusei out, as long as you can destroy his monsters before he can even synchro summon since his cards are weak, not all...but since he specializes in synchros...and destroy his traps before he can even use it!!! >.< oh yeah before I forget, there was one time, in one term he actually filled up the field with his monsters due to effects to special summoning and of course no use of monster reborn there and synchro summoned twice or thrice o.o man it would be terribly hard to turn the tables if it was turbo and nitro warrior since their effects are cool.(and experienced that and yes it was hard go mirror force!! :D)

Jaden? as I said his defense was flunky!! I tag dueled with him, and the only way to beat him in a few turns is, wipe him out and overpower him fast... and don't make him summon anything lol! make it hard!! which is true... because our opponents just beat his heroes and spacians with various effects and we're like defenseless >.< and since his deck depends on fusion monsters, it was hard, until he finally had a good draw and was able to fusion summon -.-... it wasn't really bad, it's just hard to defend with him >.<. and can't you believe alexis defeated us T-T... well she is also strong -.-... even against truesdale...

Yugi, I have to agree with the mish mash thing, since I really can't find what his deck concentrates on... is it dark magician, or whatever... and yes I can agree to other users that there are monsters that are more powerful than dark magician with cool effects... maybe if he concentrates more on enhancing his dark magician maybe he might win... I mean, as I said not bias, it's his deck is the problem.-.-...(haven't and never had fought with yugi since I don't know a game where I can actually tag duel or just battle him in whatever unit...if someone knows do tell me via here...) he just needs to concentrate on his dark magician!! >.<

and that's the way I can conclude who's and who's not strong, since the decks were shuffled, it was definitely shuffled because one time, yusei and jaden only had a hand filled with effing spells and no monsters =.= totally bad draw rar... and good thing yusei has that scarecrow thing -.-....

so yes, I go for yusei for his wicked cool defense and fast summoning followed by yugi... as long as he edits his deck... plus his lucky anyways, even if he doesn't edit his deck -.-... (agrees to another user, saying that yugi losing would be bad publicity)... and jaden last, its not that I don't like him as I said Jaden has fire power, as long he's able to fusion summon, or get his heroes together, I actually like his hero spell cards... wicked effects actually and like his deck since it's a deck that actually concentrates on something, but, I don't know... maybe they're actually equal too... if they draw good ones, but yusei actually has strategy to follow that up, it's like even if his deck is shuffled to the max, even if he got bad draws, he's able to cover it up (seen that as I duel him or duel with him even if it's a computer) and the cards on his deck connects same with jaden... another fact jaden was beaten by yugi in the show, so assuming it's definitely a fight between yugi and yusei...

but even if I pick yusei, I can say it depends since they're all strong with their own weaknesses but with cool strategies to back it up hands down but it also depends on the draw plus its just my opinion based on observing their decks and gameplay, whether reality or the anime.... I mean all duelists depends on that, I depend too much on draw especially when I'll almost lose :p so there I pick yusei due to his card connection, chains, cool defense, card combos etc...

but I'm also still yugi's fan though -.- .....jz-randomewateruser-do0147

=Be realistic. Its in the rulings...= To be true and honest, yusei will definitely win. I'm not biased or anything but a new gen deck is better than the first edition deck.
 * Yugi: Holy Ra! I'm so TCG.
 * Jaden: I could OTK you with just one card! yeah!
 * Yusei: My motorcycle gives me strength!(from YGOTAS)

Ok even if they duel, they'll be darned confused about the cards, rulings and stuff...
 * Yusei: I'll tune my monst...
 * Jaden: Oh, you're a guitarist?! rock on men!
 * Yusei: I mean I'll synchro summon. Arise Stardu...
 * Yugi: What in Anubis' name??? That's against the rules! Can you summon with that???
 * (Cue)(Kaiba: Screw the rules, I have money!)(from YGOTAS)
 * Yusei: What millenium are you? Dont you know this???
 * Jaden & Yugi: uhhhh...

--SilentHero26 09:34, January 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I pretty much agree with this. XD Sounds pretty real. I mean, that's what you get from making an ancient pharoah with an amnesia of some sort, a happy-go-lucky teenager and a calm, calculated punk. But... I don't think Jaden's deck would lose out to Yusei's deck. I mean, isn't that why Stratos got into the List anyway? 'Cuz it's too... well, splashable. As for Yusei, well... his deck is no pushover as is with Jaden's decks... whichever he'll be using. ;D Yugi, on the other hand, has a pretty much outdated deck with... absolute no strategy. Sorry, Atem's underlings. This ancient kiddo would have no luck in surviving the duels nowadays. =D 13:43, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

It is obvious that Yugi will win.
I am not talking about Atem I am talking about Yugi the true King of Games he is known for having a very balanced deck and unlike his counterpart he can control his emotion even in a bad position.

Even though I have yet to see Yugi use the god cards you can tell that by looking at his level deck/ machine deck that he is a little better than the pharoah.

As for 2nd place it will be Yusei Fudo with his millions of overpowering monsters Majestic Star Dragon, Stardust Dragon/ Assualt Mode, Stardust Dragon, Junk Warrior, Nitro Warrior, Turbo warrior exc. that he is going to be second and he isn't an emotion crazy like Jaden Yuki only when needs he shows how he feels.

Yusei Fudo has an very bad deck setup though it relies on Synchro too much Royal Oppression will put Yusei and Jaden to there knees. 3rd Jaden Yuki I don't hate the guy he does have a few good duels but he relies to much on Fusion his downfall but his doesn't always need to fuse he got some good cards like Bladedge, Neos, Yubel and a few more others but kill his fusing abilities and he is a goner.

Also one more thing there aces who will win Dark Magician, Elemental Hero Neos, or Stardust Dragon.

=P Dark Magician because of it has more support than Neos or Stardust.

Secondly if you control the Gods Cards and have a pharoah in a keychain with unlimited dueling smarts that is like 2 vs 1 vs 1 so the answer to your who will win is Yugi Moto THE KING OF GAMES because of his abilities to have an equal deck and shuffle between fusion and tributing.

I would say Jaden would win. If and only if for one reason. He does in fact cheat. He has over 160 cards in his deck (more then 3 times the legal limit) and only one copy of each save polymerization and hero kid. (maybe a couple of others) Not only that but he can always draw EXACTLY which card he needs, when he needs it. Not to mention he has all the Yubel forms, and the Evil Heroes (which he probably wouldn't use, but he still has them.) So yeah Jaden would tottaly win ESPECIALLY if were talking about the manga, where he has access to the natural heroes such as earth, great tornado, and absolute zero. Yusei comes in second mostly because synchro spam screws poor yugi over big time.

personaly i think its pritty obvious thet Yusei would win think about it people he use's scnchro's Taylor ace

Jaden
i think that Yugi would win, but Jaden is definately better than Yusei, and just for some people, there was an episode in GX, where Jaden beat the Winged Dragon Of Ra :)

possibility of a tie
They're all pretty good duelists and any one of them is strong on their own but if they faced each other i think jaden would go down first, and yusei, and yugi would bring each others life points to zero at the same time. Soundeffex 00:04, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

they all suck
a real life deck (thats good) could easily beat any of there decks so wat does it matter?

Then you're a true hater of them. --FredCat100 00:45, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

My opinion
Well, you're all actually forgetting one thing with the movie out. If you look, Atem/Yami Yugi WHATEVER you wanna call em has some updated cards that were reasonable. I mean hey, a trap card that doubles a monster's ATK? That's actually a pretty good one shot attack. That's a VERY easy OTK right there if he combos that with Dark Paladin. And you gotta figure that depending on WHEN they duel while Yusei has a god-like defense, could it stand up to Yugi OR Judai if they updated THEIR decks with synchro monsters and better strategies? (Well, maybe not synchros for Judai's who knows but at least an updated strategy could do some good for him

Furthermore, like everyone's been saying Yugi and Judai almost ALWAYS pull godly luck draws. Yusei one the otherhand is full on all skill and I've seen enough to know that if he wanted to he could brutally own someone. Judai's got an amazing deck synergy though and his cards flow almost like water as does Yusei's. Yugi on the otherhand has a very strict "deck of glass" even as Kaiba himself says. Again according to Kaiba that if you know Yugi's strategy and you can break it off before he can pull it off, you can either totally throw him off for a split second or leave him totally open for the kill. Ruining one core piece of Yugi's deck can just totally mean the end for him and I think that's what everyone's getting at here. And yes, they have ZERO synergy. Yusei and Judai however can very easily switch into another strategy or have several other reliable monsters in case of such an incident.

That's just strategy though. I'd say there, Yusei and Judai tie, and Yugi dies. Now on power, yes Judai fans Judai totally wins there. Yes it's granted that Yugi has god cards but several Neos fusions can easily go over 4000 attack points and Judai I believe has a monster destruction spell card. Since Gods are affected by spells (YES they are go look it up if you don't believe me) he could take them out, as could Yusei. Yusei could have a shot in power but his cards are more focused on just defending before he totally destroys the opponent's strategy and goes in for the kill. Yugi would actually in my opinion be second in power if anything for some of his more powerful monsters and of course the Egyptian God Monsters.

With power and strategy aside, there comes the final element being just the opinion. So with these factors I say:

Really, just a flat out draw. Yusei has way to many defenses that could keep him going FOREVER, Judai's power could hold him out for a really long time, especially if he manages to call out Yubel or Neos Wiseman and Yugi well, he's just epically lucky like that. In the end the final result would be either Yugi or Judai would probably summon some godly monster of monstrous attack strength and just as it's about to nail someone Yusei pulls a defense card that most likely ends the duel in a tie, some other circumstance occurs that forces the duel to end (like perhaps the 3 rivals wanting a piece of the action) or they could be gay like they were at the end of GX and blank out the screen and just vaguely hint to us what happened.


 * I got that, but remember Yusei is from the future, while Yugi and Jaden are in present era. That which mean either Yugi/Jaden not have know about Synchro till Yusei pulled it out of his pretty ass. --FredCat100 04:15, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

Point taken. However, even then the two could update their decks. I still think it would end in a draw though cuz even the mightiest of defense walls must come down And luck would only get Judai so far and well, I think I've already explained Yugi's problems

Atemu
Pharaoh is a God. If you remember his final duel with Yugi, he could actually Manipulate Fate to draw the cards he needed/wanted. It's not luck, and it's not "heart of the cards" (more like heart of the duelist anyway). So, obviously, he'd win hands down. Atemu, with his final deck, or his regular deck "updated" would be the winner.

Yugi's deck was built specifically to counter Atemu's deck, so that's why he won that time. But I think older Yugi, with an updated deck would stand a very high chance of winning against Yusei or Judai too.

Yusei's deck is just as much a mishmash of cards as Yugi's is, it's just a centralized strategy for syncro support  His only adaptability comes from the various syncro monsters he can summon.

Judai's deck is the most adapatable out of them all, but the most reliant on luck (he has WAY too many cards in it, and it's loaded with single circumstance support cards). If luck was on his side, He'd come very close to defeating Yugi or Yusei, but if luck favored them all equally, he'd be the first to lose. (As much as I like Yubel, I have to say it, Judai's deck is the worst of them all) 70.247.169.204 13:46, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

I truly don't know. I've been watching the whole Yu-Gi-Oh! trilogy since I was 4, and since then, I've been rooting them all on. They are all great at dueling (duh, that's why they have their own series)and if they were dueling each other, it'd be epic. Truly, I don't think Judai/Jaden has much of a chance, so between Yugi and Yusei.

Different times, different rulings
Are we forgetting that the rules during Yugi's time were very sketchy. Remember, there was even no such thing as quick play spell cards. I can just imagine it now. Yugi goes "What do you mean I can't activate Monster Reborn during your turn?" and "How can you attack me with your fusion monster in the same turn that it was summoned, Jaden?"--Hide Head Turtle 15:56, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Yusei Must win
yusei muse win because he play inside 5d's rules. compare with jaden ,jaden win cause of

luck,in real life I think jaden can lose easlly.

Every character in the Anime and Manga wouldn't have a chanse against any player in thae reality. The only players that would have a  small chanse is Andore, Crow and Kiryu (just because of their decks). Yusei plays a crap synchro deck, Jaden plays a forgotten archetype and Yugi play a random deck. Yugi and Yusei only win on luck, neither of them is good. The only thing I know about GX is think he is good at all that Jaden plays Neo-Spacians, but I dont. Btw, Crow missplays a lot against Bommer (I dont know the dubbed names, the dubbed versoin suck). If I had to pick any of them it would be Yusie, because he can syncho summon. Ancientgearking 16:23, April 21, 2010 (UTC)

Yugi would win.
He has the Egyptian Gods and he believes in the heart of the cards. The Horror 'Speak if you dare

It doesn't matter....much.
It depends. If the creator of Yugioh make all three of them duel each other, its pretty obvious that yugi would win. In real life it would end up in a tie. I think they are beatable if today's duelist in real life dueled them.

Yugi
Lets all be honest here, the original is the best. And also as you guys say atem, I say yugi as he is the only character who can take on all three god cards in one go. Judai and yusei are cool in their own way but until they are staring down the major plot point for about four seasons straight and win, then I'll change my mind but for now, the little awsome that is Yugi Motou is who I'd pick. by the way, for those who think about deck synergy, lucky draws etc. do please remeber that this is an anime, it is ment for entertainment purposes only, you are right in saying that most characters only win by luck and little stratergy but it isn't ment to be serious and in a world ruled by a card game and friendship, I do find it surprising that the fans are dimanding logical deck construction. don't take this the wrong way, you are right, but do remeber the context that these characters and scenarios are in, this is a world where anything can happen and good draws do seem a bit tame after yami bakura sends people to hell it self. sorry for this text rant user:Jak Da Koopa 22, April, 2010

Don't know about who wins, but the final score would be:

After 1 loss: 1st: 2400, 2nd: 1700, 3rd: 0000

Final Result: 1st: 0100, 2nd/3rd: 0000

"How'd you arrive at those numbers?"

yusei not lucky?
all of you say yusei has skill not luck but as you can see in episode 110 HE DRAWS 5 TUNERS IN A ROW isn't that luck--Arcanitejedi 12:49, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Unless all of his tuners were clusterfucked (pardon my French) together, which can happen when half of the cards in his deck are tuners, I myself have built a Yusei deck with all cards one of each up to TSHD, except Power Frame and the deck really relies on what your starting hand is. 24.12.251.225 15:56, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

yugi
i think it would be yugi,, he faced more people, he won more opponents , we know more about him, he defeated the leader of arikalkos which was practically undefeated cause he did have a monster with infinite attack points and both of them where on 0 life points! i think its Yugi, and then he is the first yu-gi-oh character

NO
ok this is seriously a stupid question,, the creator would not make a winner, because : his companies economy will fall, if some one likes yugi and yugi loses would he want to by his cards ,,,, NO and then how would the creator feel like ,, its like asking a kinder garden teacher to announce her favourite student in public ,, first of all how would she start even thinking about that,, why her student is the best same goes here each individual has his own pluses , third sais its yusei other third sais iys yugi and final third sais its jaden , there is absoloutly no way can we ever figure this out , if we were to make/create/write down the plot of the episode where they fight each other what would we say?????

Yusei
Yusei ftw because he obviously has the most combos. Jaden's the coolest though. And Yami Yugi's classic, which I respect, but he doesn't come close with his dumbass useless Normal Monsters.

Yusei, hands down. While Judai and Yugi have luck, he's the only one with real skill. IronChain 15:47, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

What We Know
Yugi, yugi has the worst deck of the three and only wins because of the cheap god cards that almost never have the same effects N00B (yes i called the king of games a N00B duelist)

Yusei, i'm not to sure bout yusei but his deck is stupid and really he ONLY wins with luck

Jaden, Jaden Beat a GOD not a god card a GOD and he has a real deck not just random cards like yugi (and partially yusei)

Look im sorry to say but who ever posted this is an idiot, yusei has the best deck out of both of them by far, neo spacians are terrible, I'm not joking there actualy terrible and for you too say they are better than yusei deck is just silly. I mean most of them go back to the extra deck once summoned and their effects aren't even that good. We all know in a duel yusei or yugi would win with jaden being at the bottom all the time.

TIE
I think that all of these duelists have a fair chance of winning.

Yugi's deck has some of the most essential yet powerful cards in the game (such as Mirror Force) which the other two respective decks lack since they are of a different focus. Yugi's old Dark Magician combo may be old, but it is NEVER to be underestimated. More and more combos became possible asthe long, original Yu-Gi-Oh! went on.

Jaden's Elemental Hero deck is amazing, though I must admit the the later-added Neo-Spacians are really, really bad. Nevertheless, Jaden can access and utilize several great ablities unique to several of his different Heroes. He also has many archetype-based support cards to help he get all the cards he needs. I must also mention that there are several Heroes that NEVER ACTUALLY APPEARED IN THE ANIME. I'd say that Jaden's deck, minus the neo-spacians and plus some more Heroes, would stand a very good and equal chance at winning a duel.

Yusei's Synchro Deck is amazing if used properly. It has great defense tactics and to protect the lower-level and lower-ATK Tuners required for Synchro Summoning. All of Yusei's Synchros are AWESOME. Yuseio is definitely a competent player.
