Yu-Gi-Oh! GX- Season 1 Episode 12- Formula For Success 

He drowned Chazz then burned him.

Bastion is closer to an actual meta TCG player. He has several decks instead of relying on one specific deck to win, each of them most likely contain cards that can help them overcome opposing threats the opponent might have ready. He considers what he has available wisely before summoning and attacking head on. Most importantly, he's not afraid of taking risks that involve losing Life Points in order to give him a better field advantage. He just falls short of being able to defeat opponents who tend to use random strategies or don't play under a single guideline. Chazz usually is an all-out offensive duelist, so someone like Bastion and Jaden who can be both offensive and defensive duelists at the same time are great opponents.

nah, Jaden is also relatable not only for Hero players but in general though - not even imo -.... and Bastion is annoying to me exactly for hat reason, reminds me of yugitubing which imo kinda sucks a lot of the heart YGO once had with so much meta snoobism and annoying card math thinking - like OMG I GET IT, your plus something deck rules with your engine and crap, just LET ME play competitvely with my Tier 2 stuff using my own twist, OK -, YGO even irl is not really all about math science and stuff, that's just a kind of player in the playerbase with a particular mindset, the - Jadens -, the - Joeys - the - Yugis - and specially - CHAZZ - if you know what i mean are also competitve, all you need to know in this game is knowing your techs and polishing your consistency with the cards you know tought, not to mention side decking and knowing meta weaknesses... and sorry for my lil rant there lol.

I think Zane is the closest to a TCG player. Since he plays a deck that could be consistent in real life. During that time the cards were released in the tcg

@@bitrel07 Bastion's problem is admittingly that he relies on preparations against his opponents. Someone very unorthodox would be troublesome for him so perhaps that was the purpose of his new deck, which had a couple of the new Element ______ monsters. I definitely like him more than Kaiba

You know what? This is the one thing I really enjoy about watching this episode. Even though I may not be much of a mathematician or anything, but the way he creates duel formulas for Monsters, Spells, and Traps, it really lifts my spirits. In other words, thinking strategically and studying carefully.

Puddleon I felt the same.

Ah yes APQM

Could be worse. He uses trigonometry to solve trap cards

@@Alb410 that's some devil magic right there.

Apparently the aspects of how attack points lead to better chances of winning and probability of gaining an advantage to overwhelm your opponent

Why I didn't like the fact the second half of S2 onward is just Duel Monsters again.

@@shis1988 and then season 4 put everything back into perspective with everyone having to buckle down on their life goals, the anxiety from the uncertainty about the future, Crowler not wanting anyone to graduate and therefore leave, Jaden recovering what made him a great duelist, and so much more. Season 4 was actually really good and completed GX.

What I love about GX is that even the filler is a good time

​@@dancarter5775It did. Then again, it can't hurt to have a movie about GX in the future. We got Duel monsters back with DSOD, and it was awesome for the most part, especially Kaiba, so it would be nice to see how Jaden is doing nowadays in like 3-5 years in the future, instead of somehow floating around Venice.

andros ram now he has a role in duel links!

Andros ram he also said, 'i was deep in attack point quantum mechanics' so...

I agree. Bastion could have been an amazing rival for Jaden, but I guess Chazz did kinda steal that role. Not that I'm mad, since Chazz is a really charismatic character, but it would have been interesting to see Bastion in a more important role XD

I KNOW!! TOTALLY AGREE.... Its such a shame they set him off as a lunatic Einstein in the later roles..... from when he was with a professor for a long time......

4:05 best part

4:05 best part

You can extrapolate, thinking it's about being the most popular person in the most popular hobby and entertainment, granting a huge popularity to their name. But I'm most certainly overthinking, just a stupid plot for kids cartoon.

It's like pottery...

I didn't realize the irony here. It makes his defeat look even more humiliating lol

Ironic 😂

And then he roasted him.

@@joseph86255actually not roasted… more like he Boiled him😂

Playing card games is a sport...

@@Ghost7065 in 5Ds it’s MotoGP

They also play tennis lol

Yeah, in all honesty Chumley is so lovable because it's like everything becomes a topic or side topic about food when he's around. His comic relief is always nice in my eyes.

Reinhardt Thunder's Sword-N'Fist FACTS

Hey, If he lets us eat their sweet food, He's TOTALLY TRUSTWORTHY.

I still think that Kaiba should be sued for the horrible living arrangements for Slithers Ra and Obelisk get proper meals and a proper home, the Slithers have to live in a shack and only get rice and Sardines for food.

Agreed. I really love how both of those animals are the symbolism of jaden and bastion ^^

Funny enough, Bastion is using one of Kaiba's cards: Vorse Raider.

@@IGamingStation True enough at least Bastion didn't have a Crush Card in his first deck

The way he opened his jacket😂

@@IGamingStation and ring of destruction but that Chazz throw it

I wonder how Kaiba would feel if he found out that in our world, the Blue Eyes White Dragon is a very common card, and hardly any duelist DOES NOT own one

Can I be part of this world? Please?

"Uh, Dueling's got jackshit to do with taking the world!"

@@doorbladder5735 Cause Of Kaiba Duel Monster Is A Main Part Of The World!

Kenan Von Kaiser that was a GX abridged reference. Based off this very episode.

REVOisMYname 

which is why its so annoying they stopped focusing on them. they had serious potential for dueling and story lines. Zane did for a bit but ultimately got sided in the end.

@@thanoseid2883Realistically, Zane graduated so his story was pretty much over, Aster was introduced, as the superior duelist. Then in season 3 they got some of the best character development you could ask for! they both went from Anti hero's to the main protagonist for a few episodes.

@Parshuram is namaRD idc who simps for who. Point is potential was wasted.

@@dominiquepettway1142 you still missed bastion. If anyone needs development it’s him.

@Parshuram is namaRD Atem and Kaiba beat Zane lol he has barely any back row. Doesn’t have much to remove all their trap cards.

And one Pot of Greed, just in case I need to summon two more Mirror Forces from my deck

@@davidhong1934 nope banned

Only banned if you play the new bullshit system. It’s only to force people to buy the new cards

@@bbdl7042 pot of greed has been banned off and on since the banlist concept began.

+@@davidhong1934 : I have 3 dark bribes. Just in case? I have to avoid big trouble with the law and have a get away clean.

then he fell to the power of women :/

That may be so, but his card crush was white magician pikeru, so I think that takes a few points off.

⁠@@dannywilkes6601And being a fanboy to Einstein and Sartorious

I'm glad the fandom gives bastion the love he deserves in rewrites and fan works my personal favorite is when writers make bastion into an exchange student with amazing talent but is shy around everyone

Hassnain Ali It's so over dramatic isn't it 😂😂😂

LOOOOL they didn't look like decks xDDDD

Bastion: ALLAHU AKBAR

ProxymanDerk fuckkk I was going to say the same

Omg yea XD As a kid i got pissed when chazz threw bastion's cards into the ocean but then when bastion freaking revealed more decks by opening his jacket was just awesome XD Bastion has always been one of my fave characters ^^

Heck Yeah!

Obelisk blue are filled with posh snobs and wankers due to their family connections and shit, I rather he the toughest duelist and be in slifer red or Ra yellow, just to rub it in to those elists

Quionte Colvin but he said that he would be in obelisk blue if he’s the number one duelist, and he’ll have to beat Jaden .

I thougt I saw a clip of him in a White Obelisk Blue jacket one time. Probably from S4, I'd have to double check.

Hell Yeah

defo agree! his character was way too complex for dueling

Definitely !!!! And like his character for sure was too complex for dueling

Probably came down to his deck was too hard to update and keep up with Jaden getting all the neo spaciens and contact fusion monsters. Always liked the idea of Bastion's chemistry based deck.

Bastion is a character that’s really smart and doesn’t sugarcoat anything, but is really caring and sweet. It’s a weird combo, but you gotta love hom

Too bad mathmechs weren't a thing yet. they would have been the perfect deck for a bookworm like him

Yet Seto Kaiba lost to Yugi and pretty much lost most of his honor and nearly his company as well if it weren’t for Yugi Seto Kaiba would have lost it all and he only has most of everything except his spot as number 1 and his honor although he lost it the moment he ripped up Yugi’s grandpa’s Blue-Eyes White Dragon but finally redeemed himself around season 3 to 5.

yugioh is making me do science

extremely sweet combo

don’t forget that they need Bonding H2O

Derek Westbrook true it’s teaching us peirotic table

Yes because 2 Hydrogen atoms and 1 Oxygen atom makes water

RIGHT

Well amorphic barrier ends the battle phase

@@JinxAnarchyEntity So does Negate Attack, without requiring 3 monsters to activate it

@@Leif47 oh shit really? Been a long time since I used negate attack lol

@@Leif47 Maybe he didn't pull a Negate Attack? They have packs sometimes they may get unlucky

@@aura8447 True, though singles must be available at the school. Though I could see everyone and their grandma buying a copy for their decks in that case

Venator Yeah, especially considering Water Dragon’s ability

Jakkuthe KoreanJesus until he got fired in season 4.

I want to see that Fire Dragon ( 1:18 ) of his till today

From what I remember it isn't a real card but it was supposed to become one if bastions story continued, but since he wasn't popular with the japanese fanbase he got replaced.

he wasn't edgy enough for the japanese fanbase

Jakkuthe KoreanJesus I now right he was awesome also I feel like the tiger is a reference to tanja and the dragon is a reference to Jesse just an idea

Mean Value theorem, linear approximation, taylor series expansion, were the few I recognized.

Or your just a nerd lol

shane app knowing basic math formulas. Yes. Very nerdy.

@@TheQuilava96 not basic but k

Math, it can help you, even in a children's card game. Lol.

Ha ha ha!

Damarius Griffin 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

He pretty much got written out of the show, and was one of the few students who never came back in Season 4.

Nice to learn somethings you wouldn’t expect to find out unless you looked for them! Also if that is case the other attributes Fire (because of that fire dragon in the intro), Wind, Dark, Light, Earth Really sad we didn’t get to see him use them but still this episode is amazing!

when a monster card is on the field but a trap is also in play that could destroy it at any unkown time, they call it schrodingers kuribohn

ItsASquid ummm you can always close the tab :)

In the first series, Kaiba said he performed a quantum analysis on his first defeat against Yugi

Apparently that's how monster card at points are decided

Esp if you know what quantum mechanics is it makes it sound all the more ridiculous

i can agree with this, ultimately my favourite character in all the yu-gi-oh series

Honestly his character wasn't half as good as he could have been. The anime was determined to make him a joke.

@@masterDarts4188 And it went back around to making him a badass Chazz it up! Chazz it up!

@@davidhong1934 For the first season unfortunately. It never long though.

Anime is the Original, Manga is just a Simple alternative story Anime is The Canon one So This is the Real chazz

Indeed. Water is very flexible and can be dangerous if used properly. Concentrated water cut cut through stone and boiling water can burn you. And if there’s enough if it water can flood whole cities. There’s a reason why water is known as the greatest resource in all of earth.

Toadally agree

TOADally

Yes, yes Bastion did attack point Quantum mechanics

Children's card games are serious stuff in the Yugioh world

HungryBox. Jr ong true. The protagonist rival who’s not that relevant, yet a badass

Neah idk what your talking about neah.

Wayne Grayson?

Neah it was his cousin Jesse wheeler

Yep I heard it too

Splinter: Michaelangelo!?

Eddie it up!

And attack point quantum mechanics, apparently...

Kaiba made the school so you can guess why the school ranking colors are the way they are

@@cruz5531 Indeed. Kaiba has such a boner for Obelisk that he ended up ranking Obelisk Blue as the highest. I guess since Slifer was Yugi's first owned Egyptian God, he decided to rank it the lowest. And we all know how Kaiba feels about Yugi.

Thats probably because Ra is where the normal people go who don't have giant egos so they don't walk around acting all Superior to everyone else, so they don't stand out as much as the other dorms.

Akiza was also in that dorm

@Rodrick Young No one said she was.

lol people are like this irl. They refuse to look at their own failures but would point out the failures of others.

Lol

WERE WATCHING A CHILDRENS CARD GAME!

*press the button*

@@lamarpray5324 I mean He's got more than one deck! 😓

Chazz, a new student to North Academy, proceeds to beat up every duelist there in one afternoon

David Hong damn North Academy Duelists suck

That would Be Hilarious if Chazz lost to Cyrus some how.

Me to

I like to think he's better than Kaiba in terms of personality.

Mannyindahouse does chazz do screw the rules I have money

Kaiba is way stronger than Chazz

@@ruigomez8986aiba is split between Chazz, Zane and Aster.

At least he doesn’t obsessed with beating Yugi

I like this episode, I know it's not the most popular but still.

He doesn't say that????

@@deandregreene2587 spongebob reference

You took my only food. Now I’m gonna starve

Son Goku d a m n Chazz got wrecked x20

?

XD right

Recovering Synapse If become a Ra like this, then I agreed with you.

I think Ra Yellow is awesome.

Tbh this story of dorms reminds me sm HP's houses,,

I think crowler is a teacher

Yeah but he can't banterJazz about losing to Jaden xD

@@uffeli7212 *Chazz

@@SuperMandibleclaw Oh yeah u right mb

Crowler can pretend he held back since it was just an entrance exam

Beyblade Masters you know he has 6 deck that has 6 different elements types that bastion has when he took off his jacket

Have you SEEN that boy shirtless?! He has a HELLA good looking body😍

In the first or second episode, Chumley explains to Jaden how the school is divided into colors, but he says some people get into blue because of connections, much like real life. I believe that Zane earned his blue, while Chazz didn't, since his family is influential and wealthy. But agreed! Jaden is simply just a different breed, hahaha.

Obelisk Blue arent all the top students, many of them are nepotism babies

@@Gianbear actually Chaz probably did earn his blue because not a lot of duelist could beat him in a duel. But since he’s also rich that sealed him into blue dorm.

@@keithbrown2425 Yeah, he's definitely a top duelist. I think by default his wealth had influence on his rank, but he for sure has all the skills to back it up. Plus, he has proved that he deserves it, so I agree!

But Alexis said that saw him tossing a deck in the ocean and since Bastion saw the equation he was sure that Chazz did not discard his cards but Bastion's

Alexis was a witness. The formula is an equation he wrote on the card and because Chazz isn’t anywhere close to bastion in mathematics there’s no way those could have been his own cards. Plus, Bastion even said “ I suppose you could’ve written but the math would have probably been wrong and it’s not “

Chazz's privilege wasn't strong here

🤣

Adonis Gomez 🗿🗿🗿 damn I noticed that as soon as I watched this on prime video

fullfire55 outrageous

You know, Yugi said he'd create new games to play.

Shame, card games are the best

fullfire55 ooookgggbh

Yeah like dungeon dice monsters

It does make sense because Crowler is also an Obelisk and also lost to Jaden

@@Lego_Shenron exactly, hell he lost to jaden when he was unranked, which can be worse in a way. It just would have been better if we saw chazz losing more then just to Jaden

@@omegasnake18 I know but even though Chazz lost to Bastion and Jaden, a few episodes later, he went super sayian and beat an entire school of duelists

@@Lego_Shenron and then he turns into a pervert
