These guys got me into Yugioh and remain my favourite archetype. As well as their unique mechanics and cool designs, I just love how they're treated as reformed figures of strange pasts, all united together :)
You didn’t mention which animal base the Extra Deck monster have, so here they are: Dragases -> Eagle Essedarii -> Gorilla Gyzarus -> Vulture Gaiodiaz -> Dinosaur Heraclinos -> Manticore Nerokius -> Bat Tamer Editor -> Deer Andabata -> Chameleon Domitianus -> Mythological Sea Serpent
TGS Anime: "For the sake of time, I'll only mention the cards's unique effect." Also TGS Anime during Extra Deck Monsters: "Mustfirstbespecialsummoned(fromtheextradeck)byshufflingtheabovecardsyoucontrolintothedeck(youdonotuse'polymerization')."
For real, it should've been an optional condition to shuffle at the end phase and would've summoned vanilla Neos from the deck or him and a Neo Spacian
I think the effect of tagging out at the end of bttle phase references how the Gladator's would return to his ''cell'' (?) after defeating his oppoment in the Colloseum.
Pleas redo Lightsworns or create a separate Twilightsworn video. I'm actually interested in their story. I mean, I can google it but I prefer watching your videos. xD
Uuuh, this'll be amazing! I'm really glad you worked on this after asking us what we wanted to see. I love this archetype, so, as one of the lots that asked for this one, thank you!
17:46 in my opinion I think gladiator beast Augustus is based on the cockatrice a mythical wyvern like creature with a head of a chicken his red side Finn things could be a reference to red things seen on chicken heads and maybe it's effect to special summon other gladiator beasts monsters in defense position could be a subtle reference on how like medusa the cockatrice can turn people to stone it would make sense giving some of the gladiator beasts are based on other mythological animals from Greek mythology
I just realized something, Gladiators in history were warriors battling in the Colosseum for glory and to entertain the audience. They are basically back in the day, entertainers who brings excitement to the masses through combat. Not only that, the Gladiator Beasts were brought into the anime in Arc-V through the duelist Battle Beast using a deck based on warriors whose sole purpose is to entertain people and revel in their achievements through violent means. He was put up against Yuya who is an entertainer and uses the Entermate Deck which is based on circus entertainment that along with Yuya's philosophy of entertaining people without using violent means. If Battle Beast knew what the idea of the Gladiator Beasts were, he could have became a major foil towards Yuya where basically both are different kinds of entertainers using decks based on entertainment with philosophies that clashes with one another. Also it's a clash between a practitioner of old-style entertainment vs practitioner of modern entertainment.
1:56 Me (Chris King): To those who are not familiar with how a Gladiator battle goes out the winner survives and the losser.....................I'm sure you can figure what happens to the lossers.
This is an amazing video and i like how you explain each and every detail about the archetype, can you make a video explaining the whole world legacy , crusadia, krawlers, world chalice lore and other cards in that lore? Cuz that would be epic
I play GBs and got 4th at my locals where a lot of people play meta Extremely underrated since they can set up at least 1 negate and can control your opponent’s battle phase consistently turn 1 They are best going second though since they have cards like gyzarus and bestiari to break boards and can play a fair amount of hand traps They also have really easy access to rank 4s and by extension the utopia double OTK They are also just super fun
Really wanted to make this deck back in the day. I loved their designs and how incredibly versatile they're effects and powers were. But I never could get the full deck back then, it was just too frustrating to pick up the cards, either from packs, trade, and/or buy. Thankfully I didn't need to, once I got my Summer job and got paid, I got enough money to buy myself the Best Set: Light of Destruction! And feel in love with Lightsworns! That Deck was Soo Good! It was fun, strong as hell and really pushed the game! With Judgement Dragon being on of the Best Boss Monsters I've Ever played with (at the time).
Great video man! I'm kinda new to this channel so idk if you've already done the archetypes that I'm recommending but I really love it if you did the qliphorts, artifacts, and dinomists archetypes! They're a few of my personal favorites! Thanks!
My cousin's main deck back in the day. It was so strong... I could only win him IF he had 5 face down traps(which uses to protect the in battle) and I destroy them with giant storm or something(back in the day it wasn't on the ban list).
Gladius is actually a certain type of curved short sword that was common in Rome and Italy. It was designed to dismember not kill but it could be used for that. It was a sort of a machete with a slight outward curve but straight in the back.
Impressive video and TGS Anime if I’m remembering my history right, though I’m more than likely wrong so please take this with a grain of salt, gladiators who fought with nets along with other weapons was so that the nets were used to target an opponent’s legs in some fashion to immobilize them to then go in for the kill
Yesssssss, you did one on one of my favourite archetypes!!!!!! I'm saving this video for later to watch, i am so looking forward to watching this!!! Thanks for making this!!!! Do you have any plans to do one on the D/D archetype at all?
1) 11:39: Veggietales song from “Daniel in the Lion’s Den” found in the first movie, “Where’s God When I’m Scared”: “I am King Darius, I had a dreeeeaaaamm! And now I’m feeling rather frightened and I wish someone would tell me what it means!” 2) 12:30 one would expect that one to be a hippopotamus! 3) 13:42 what, no Tommy reference?! He’s my mom’s favorite Power Ranger! 4) 16:10 and in the anime, he was a victim of Zorc and the Millennium Ring 5) 17:16 should’ve been an octopus, both because of the Oct in the name and in reference to Doc Ock 6) 19:27 we do thanks to Phineus and Ferb! 7) thank goodness there’s no Gladiator Beast based on Caligula, we don’t need that creep anywhere near this game!
I can see it now: Gladiator Beast Caligulus. He'd be an octopus because..you know why. While we're at it, why not throw in Gladiator Beast Commodon. Commodus was very famously fond of gladiatorial combat so it's actually pretty surprising he's not in here. If we can have a reference to as terrible an emperor as Nero then I don't see why not the emperor that literally died in gladiatorial combat. He'd be a peacock because Commodus was fond of very flashy displays while not being a very great fighter.
Nice, I like how each of the Gladiator Beasts are linked to the Roman Empire since that's the time they were around. Can't wait to see more archetype trivia videos. By the way, since you've already done the Egyptian Gods, the Sacred Beasts, the Wicked Gods and the Nordic Gods, think you can also do a video of the Star Gods?
Me (Chris King):Here is what I think Rank10yugioh would say about the Gladiator archetype: "They're neo spacians but cooler and better". And in a way........they sort of are. Since the Gladiators can special summon their fusion monsters fusion materials unlike neo spacians (which is a missed opertunity in my opinion) when said fusion monster returns to the extra deck. It's weird how the neo spacians - the archetype that created the contract fusion macanic - fails to make it effective where as Gladiator does what neo spacians do but better. Dispite that this archetype is really cool.
something I give TGS Anime big cred is 1: not only make a archetypes interesting but also show cards i never know was in that archetype 2: all the details on some cards you never put in minds (like colors) 3: the story of some cards (like some has history behind them) 4: and the biggest one all the investigation he put in every card (what the name means, what it's inspirations is baste on and so on) sure 3 and 4 you can say is the same thing but still
Laquari stood out the most to me in the anime and when compared to its other beasts, that flame ring made me think it was a bigger deal like a boss monster, but it also looks like if that Tiger were to move even the slightest bit, it would be burned by its own ring, a little too easily, maybe if that thing could be launched and of course be turned to act like a defensive type of object, I could get behind that, but then again that's something that only the anime and maybe an artwork would have to show
BB's duel(s) was so awesome in the series. Guy dueled like he layed. Guerilla Warface. Using Protection, Burn, and of course extreme aggression. It took 3 duelist to take him down, two of which he took down almost on his own, another if you count Sanders. Overall, great video. I look forward to when Konami releases the rest of BB's cards.
I want to see a Nekroz, Zefra &/or World Legacy(Chalice, Krawler, Mekk knight, Knightmare, Crusadia, Orcust, Guardragon, etc) archetype trivia in your channel in the near future. They are my favorites base on their lore
I loved these cards. Back when I was younger, like 9, I used to run just these. Back then in 2008 these cards were snapped. They were so much fun and would piss off my homies who had to deal with them
I like the theme of working together as there gimmick of contact fusion also plays into it as well. For example how normally you need a fusion spell and two or more monsters for a fusion summon so while cooperation it’s not true cooperation as they require a fusion spell to merge together how ever gladiator beasts use contact fusion which could be as the truest form of fusion summon true cooperation.
This was one of my favorite decks since I finished the story mode in Yugioh Tag force 4. I played in Dueling network and Duel Links and is a very good deck.
Probably the one of the strongest and easiest to understand free Structure decks you can get in Master Duel, It doesn't have spell&trap removal by default though, but for start doing the challenges and getting CB points for cards and winning duels serves quite well.
Loving the archetypes you go through. Was curious if you plan on doing anymore and if possible doing one on my favorite archetype. Bujin, the martial gods
Absolutely loved this video. I Know it kind of clashes with the Archetype, but I wish Glad Beasts would get a spellcaster monster so that they would get stopped by certain field spells....
@@KirbyJason210 since the Glad Beast have that recycling effect i will pop out the one with the 2400 def or the one that destroys a card (forgot) so mostly just use their effects at every end phase
Great video! Given that Vespasius is sea serpent type I think that it is either based on the salt water crocodile or a plesiosaur. Plesiosaurs are prehistoric animals that could sometimes look similar to crocs but are usually distinguished by their very long necks, something that vespasius has which isn’t very croc-like along with the orientation of his teeth. Plesiosaurs didn’t really have back spines though so idk
With those tear streaks and patterning of coat, Noxious is based on a CHEETAH; not a leopard. That said, there's a LOT of wonderful information here! I've played this deck for a long time and learned a lot from watching this! Thank you for making this vid!
Best archetype. Before my deck was stolen I made a Glad-Beast deck that has only ever lost to Dragon Rulers, Turbo Lightsworns and Chainburn decks (The deck of cowards). Never lost a mirror match and even won a tournament when Shining Darkness was released. After that deck was stolen at nationals I gave up for good but damn do I miss it. The ultimate Toolbox series.
