Yugi Moto Vs Jaden Yuki

Hi, Jeremy here with another Fabled Fight! Today we have the protagonists of the first two Yu-Gi-Oh series, Yugi Moto and Jaden Yuki, competing to see whose deck of Duel Monsters cards would win a duel! Note that the very last battle of Jaden's series involves him facing off against Yugi, but the results of that clash were never shown. Oh, and if you don't know, duels involve summoning various monsters, and using magic and trap cards, to reduce your opponents "Life Points" to zero. Anyway, time for our brief analysis of each fighter and then the verdict!

Yugi and Yami

 Yugi Moto

 --- Often relies on the spirit, Yami, to help win duels

 --- Mostly uses Dark attribute monsters, including the classic Dark Magician. Also uses a few "Ritual" monsters

 --- Deck contains various strategies that can adapt to most situations

--- Has pink, yellow, and black hair that is incredibly spikey. Um.. Okay, Yugi.

Yubel and Jaden

 Jaden Yuki

--- Incredibly annoying in English dub, much more tolerable in Japanese

--- Is advised by the spirit Yubel, but doesn't solely rely on her
--- Uses both Elemental Hero and Neo-Spacian cards. Jaden is considered a Fusion master, easily able to combine his monsters into more powerful forms.
--- Has two shades of brown in his hair. Hey, it's way more normal than Yugi

Verdict:
Jaden wins. I know some will be upset that the original King of Duel Monsters lost, but let's take a look at some facts. Both Jaden and Yugi have incredibly high win-to-loss ratios, so both are definitely skilled duelists. However, Yugi frequently allows his Yami form to take over, and relies on him to win most of the time. Jaden eventually receives Yubel as a guide, but she acts as mostly a spectator. Thus, Jaden seems more capable. In addition, Jaden's deck has more recent and updated cards that seem to give it a slight edge over Yugi's aging deck. Also, as a Yu-Gi-Oh card game fan, I believe that generally, Fusions tend to be more useful than Rituals. Finally, in one episode of Jaden's series, a duelist named Dimitri steals Yugi's deck, and challenges Jaden. After a long match, Jaden impressively defeats Dimitri; and this was before Jaden received his strong Neo-Spacians, he was only using his Elemental Heroes. In short, our winner is Jaden. Thanks for reading!

My final thoughts: Yugi may have lost, but he has a much better sidekick than Jaden. Yugi befriends Joey Wheeler, a competent and amusing duelist. Jaden befriends Syrus Truesdale, who (even in the superior Japanese versions) loses constantly and acts cowardly most of the time. Someone should've just dropped an anvil on Syrus at the beginning of the show. Bleh.

Today in the life of a Jeremy: Ever had a gyro? It's a Greek food that comes with lamb meat in pita bread with various vegetables. They're really good!
