You forgot when Yuma and Astral beat Tron/Vetrix with 50 life points, as well as Jaden's duel against Franz where he used Ra's ability to lower his life points to 1 to defeat Franz, and when Shun won a 3 against 1 duel with just 10 life points.
Just seeing 13 life points is just so weird, even weirder than 1 or 0 life point wins lol. I really hope a future show will do something like this again, these are so interesting to watch. Cool video, Dylan!! :)
One Duel I've been watching recently is Kaiba vs Zigfried. The moment he saw he drew Card of Demise, he guaranteed his victory with only 50 lp left. The stage was set as soon as he summoned his dragons, but still one of the most badass comebacks.
Some people probably already mentioned this, but when Shun duels the LDS trio in Arc-V, he also wins with 10 LP, since the anime effect of Raidraptor - Readiness bizarrely makes your LP become 10 instead of simply preventing damage.
Man to think that Kalin achieved something only the King of Games and a God-powered antagonist was able to. Truly one of the best moments of 5Ds and to think it was all filler but some of the best filler
Great list. Though you missed both Yami Yugi vs Yako Tenma Round 2 from the Yu-Gi-Oh! R manga, which ended with Yugi at 92 LP, as at least an honorable mention and the LDS Elite Trio vs Kurosaki Shun from ARC-V, which tied with Atem vs Rafael at 10 LP and should’ve counted higher (as Shun won 3v1 outright while Atem won by surrender) for the list.
Rafael vs. Atem R2 didn't end in surrender. The effect of Soul Charge drains 1000 LP (500 in the anime) for each monster it summons from the GY. Rafael wiped himself out with his own card by bringing back 4 monsters with it.
Some that were missed Yuma vs Trey, Yuma won with 50 Yuma vs Vetrix, Yuma win with 50 Shay vs Julia, Kit, and Dipper, Shay won with 10 There was that dude in gx who stole ra and almost beat Jaden with it That’s all I can recall
And I love it because of that. Dartz was owning ass the whole game until Atem brought out the three Knights of Atlantis. At that point, the tide truly turned in Atem's favor...
I’ve always had thoughts about Mizael vs III & V. Its always felt to me like the brothers went into that duel with little intention to win. I know they wanted revenge for IV but they also wanted to buy Yuma and Kaito time and V knew Mizael had to make it to the moon to duel Kaito which wouldn’t have happened had they beaten him (I mean I presume one of the brothers would’ve had to have take Mizael’s place in that duel with Kaito? Which honestly might have been the only way to make the moon duel more sad.)
Kaiba wins his duel against Zigfried with just 50 life points. On Kaiba’s last turn he uses Zigfried’s magic card to gain 2000 lifepoints since he predicts he will play 4 magic cards. His lifepoints increased from 950 to 2950. His last magic card was dimension fusion that cost him 2000 lifepoints to special summon 5 removed from play of his removed from play dragons. Zigfried’s Valkyrie has 3300 attack points do to Kaiba’s 5 dragons on the field . He starts attacking with Luster Dragon #2 first to weaken Valkyrie’s attack, but the move destroyed Luster dragon and cost Kaiba 900 lifepoints. Then Kaiba attacks with chaos emperor dragon to destroy it in order to weaken Valkyrie’s attack and defensive points, since her special ability prevents her from being destroyed by battle by lowering her defense points. With the other dragons gone Kaiba has his first Blue-Eyes attack Valkyrie, and her attack is down to 2700. Not only did Kaiba force Zigfried to use up all her defense points to 0, but Kaiba was able to take away 300 of Zigfried’s life points. Then Kaiba has his second Blue-Eyes destroy Valkyrie once and for all and whip out another 300 of Zigfried’s lifepoints. Finally Kaiba has his final Blue-Eyes to attack Zigfried’s remaining lifepoints which was 3000.
The dartz duel was crazy I wonder if majic cyilinder would have wirked against the great laviathon i doubt it as dartz had 0 life points but it would have been funny
As Dartz wouldn't lose as long as Geae is on the field, it wouldn't cause the loss, however something like Mirror Force, would (unless anime Geae has a protection effect)
@@varisrevolver4061 Lol, i can just imagine the scene Dartz: “As long as I have this giant snake with litterally INFINITE Atk points I can’t lose Yugi, MUHAHAHAHA” The pharaoh: “Yeah, about that…IsummonKuribohactivateMultiplyactivateDetonateKuribohexplodesyourmonsterisdestroyedandIwin. Womp womp”
From Yugioh Arc V you forgot to mention Shun/Shay vs 3 LDS Duelists where he used a trap card to reduced and life points to 10 and KO them on his next turn
Sure Lightning won, but if you use this as an argument to say lightning > revolver like in top 10 VRAINS duelists, by this logic Noah > Kaiba too since they both used the same trick to stop losing previously.
The fight between Yusei Jack and Crow vs Rex Godwin is one of my favorite duels.Thematically it’s a passing the torch duel as the 3 brothers finally on good terms face off against their childhood hero in order to save the world.The combos,strategy and the wacky 1 life point gimmick made the duel very memorable.
also... technicly he never got over infinite attack. the monsters effect states when it dies summon all 3 knights... well it did meaning it wasnt over infinite. since all 3 came out when darts lost
An honourable mention can go to the Kaiba/Yugi vs. Noah duel, where Yugi (who had replaced Kaiba) had 100 LP, while Noah had exactly 10,000 LP at the beginning of the last turn. Of course Yugi won.
Yuya defeated Shun during the final arc of Arc-V with 50 LP remaining, Shun won against the LDS trio with 10 LP remaining, and Judai defeated Franz with 1 LP remaining using Ra's effect. Just a few placements worth mentioning that weren't mentioned here.
I know Kaiba won against Zigfried with only 50 life points during the KC Grand Championship filler arc even if the damage he took to get his life points that low was intentional.
I feel as if 50 life points was actually happened somewhat often at one point in yugioh, especially when everyone was running 3 copies of Solemn Judgment
Lightning using jin data to help gain an extra life point is one the most bs things in the vrains show. Waiting for someone from go rush to have only one life point and to win a game
I like it because it shows how much of a selfish asshole Lightning really is. Imagine Noah using "godly powers" to bullshit his way into having 1 LP against Yugi...
@@CaptainB1994 yeah but as soon as the heart attack began she had 100 LP, then got 99,98,97 and so on and so forth. Good thing Life Stream did a Morphtron Defibrillator on Luna
I just thought of something. What if a duelist life points went into negative numbers. That way, when someone uses ring of destruction to cause a tie, the duelist with the lowest negative life points wins instead.
The thing is about the anime - the metaphysics of the universe are VERY different. Between how Mixed archetypes wouldn’t work, and how the souls of monsters respond to the duelist, flexible decks win over single focus decks there. “God-win”… it’s pronounced “good-win”
It was a draw, but another is Crow vs Brave. Crow is facing two gods, no field, and only 50 lp left. It may have been a draw, but still to pull that off is amazing given the circumstances.
We all know lightning had super plot armor while using that spell card with one life point left can you imagine that card in yu-gi-oh duel links it will break the cyberworld
Fun fact: Lightning actually cheated TWICE against Revolver. I remember that, at some point in the duel, Revolver just needed to attack him directly with Borreload Dragon to win. Before Revolver could, though, Lightning told him that he would have also killed Kusanagi’s brother by attacking, so Revolver stopped his attack to get then defeated by the 1 life point bs later on.
The fact that Revolver forced Lightning to cheat twice to win proves that Lightning isn't worth a damn as a duelist. I'm glad Playmaker didn't have to deal with his shit personally...
Yugi Relay soul or a very restricted version of it seems it could’ve been a neat little counter to something like self destruct button and pre errata ring if destruction
unrelated I had a duel in duel links as Yuma and was brought to 13 life points and won I’m mad I forgot to save it I just stop playing for the day after that
However when Yam Yugi beats Dartz in the waking the Dragons Arc he does so after his LP is already at 0 but the only reason Yami Yugi doesn't LOSE that duel as soon as his LP hits zero is because of the 1 trap card that ONLY activates after his LP hits zero and its used to automatically summon Dark Magician Girl after his LP hits zero. So the only way Yami could lose the Duel against Dartz in the anime is if the Dark Magician Girl gets destroyed in battle which never happens.
technicly it would be yuma vs real vector duel 1... cause he states every time that hes always dueled him with a clone to that point... and if you dont want to count that it would be duel 3 or 4 considering he takes over for doctor faker at the end of season 1
