Idk if you read my comment in your previous short about Buster Blader against Slyfer, but much appreciate this video 🙏 By any chance, you could make next archetype with Black Luster Soldier?🙏
It looks like that the background loop used in editing vanishes for a frame or two. This can happen when you copy/paste a short loop to keep it going. Rather than them being truly side by side, there is a minuscule gap between the copies of the loop.
Yugi cards are so beloved by Konami. Freaking Gazelle the King of Mythical beast just got an archetype whose retrain has it’s own new type: illusionist. If and when Konami stops printing new cards, every monster in Yugi’s deck will have its own deck.
I love how buster blader directly counters kaiba's blue eyes dragons 1)as if kaiba summons 1 blue eyes white dragon , buster baldsr gains 500 attack and becomes 3100 attack. 100 more attack than bewd 2)And if kaibe summon the blue eyes ultimate dragon buster blader gauns 2000 attack and becomes 4600 attack , again 100 more attack than blue eyes ultimate dragon
Years after the original series and that realization finally dawned on me. Like the video said, Buster Blader never got to shine on his own, but whenever Yugi/Atem needed a dragon to be slain, he was there in some capacity.
It's safe to say that the Buster Blader had one of the coolest designs out of all the original Yu-Gi-Oh monsters. It stood there along the likes of Dark Magician, Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Blue Eyes White Dragon and several others that escape me.
1. Buster Blader going from an edgy boy who hates dragons, to a proud pet owner, to the Doomguy of Yu-Gi-Oh! is a character arc I didn't know I needed 2. The fact that Buster Whelp only became corrupted because it tried to be strong enough to protect Buster Blader is freaking sad! But the two do get a bittersweet ending so that's nice.
@@ASavageEye I think they could actually be friends. Mostly after what happened to buster whelp. Actually any dragon maid might have a crush with him. Idk. I just want support for buster blader o a synergy between the two 😀
@@Rak0705 I don't know if they originate from there but thanks to Magustis I know they are connected. I have a deck in master duel I'm working on as a result I'm just calling the mage's guild. Where I take bosses and try to make it work. I have Dark Magician, Endymion, witch crafters, spell books, Magustis, a fortune lady(the synchro). It's a fun chaotic mess
12:10 Just for clarification, as the way Sam said it makes it seem more like Poly, it uses monsters from your hand or *either* side of the field, so you could use an opponents Dragon-type monster as fusion material. Another way it counters Dragon decks. 😄 Thank you for the video! BB is literally one of my favorite cards as I had one when I was younger, and I’ve loved playing with the new support on Duel Links.
Buster Blade, heads down one of my favorite cards from the original series, and still one of my favorites to this day. I'm not only glad he got expanded into his own archetype, but he was given a movie/series-worthy backstory. Speaking of which, awesome narration of it. Here's hoping that there's a video focusing on the Black Luster Soldier and Gaia archetypes.
Funfact: Besides being played by Yugi in DM, there's a side character called Shewbahha from the current ygo series Go Rush who uses Buster Blader as his ace monster which is fitting since he's from a family of (alien) Dragon Busters who hunted space dragons til they got extinct. (and he had to duel a main character with a dragon deck) This was Buster Blader's anime debut in the Rush era.
The only archetypes left in Yugi's deck that hasn't been covered are Gaia the Fierce Knight, Black Luster Soldier, Archfiend, and Phantom Beast (admittedly there's overlap with the first 2)
The later Buster Blader cards were honestly the first time when I looked at their cards and went "Hold uo, there's an actual story being towards between these cards"
Nice lore about the Buster Blader before introducing the archetype. Interesting how the Buster Blader connects well with the Dark Magician, and by extension Yugi and Atem. It also makes sense for Atem to have Buster Blader to counter Seto Kaiba's blue eyes white dragon.
I remember strategies revolving around the fusion monster. It was either buster dragon OR the continuous trap that changes the type of ALL monsters. Either or both
@@GoldRichness All 3 could be used, but Rebirth is only used to massively increase the attack points of the Fusion Buster Blader and OG Buster Blader since Rebirth changes all monsters in the GY to a selected type. DNA in case you don't pull prologue.
If it wasn't for this archetype, I wouldn't have gotten back into Yu-Gi-Oh and honestly, it's a pretty fun deck to mix with other decks like Despia or Dragonmaids... but just pray you don't brick.
My headcanon is that the dragons that blader killed and well absorbed is the original bodies of the 5 headed dragon and there malice made them fused and turn into the fusion monster, also may have caused welps turn to savagery.
What makes buster blader even better against Kaiba is that if Kaiba even sends out one blue eyes white dragon, buster bladers attack goes up to 3100, 100 more than the blue eyes white dragon
First saw this idea and buster blader lore on "guns blazing" a smaller yugioh channel, I'm glad you're doing it now,I think you adapted actual lore well ( as a posed to just listing the cards and information)
So captivating the way you tell these stories ❤ from the beginning, with the imagery this tells a wonderful short story. I'm sure there's a Ghost Buster reference in the lore where "Bustin makes him feel good" 😂 but in all seriousness, this card has remained one of my favorite cards...artwork, appearance & usability. Great vid, cheers 🍻
Even though the small dragon ties together with Buster Blader, why do I feel like there should be a fusion of Buster Blader & Red Eyes Black Dragon or Blue Eyes White Dragon. To be honest that would've been pretty cool to see if Joey and Yugi teamed up again in the anime. We could've gotten Dragoon and possibly a Buster Blader and Red Eyes Fusion
Dang. I imagine the stories in this video and some of your others can be used as a series of animated episodes on Disney + or something. Great job researching, voicing, and editing of graphics for us to be able to follow the stories visually.
Small addendum DistructionSwordsman Fusion is also a Quickplay Spell that is an indeed an archetypal super Polymerization so let’s say you use memories to discard dragon, buster destruction, sword Activate, prologue to get buster dragon onto the field by dumping necessary materials, then vanish memories after everything resolves now you have buster blader, the fusion and buster dragon all in the field and any destruction, sword card you want to equip at that point so, if you really wanted to, you could have two of the fusions, pretty neat, but unnecessary
I remember hearing from Golden Nova that the destruction sword cards were made to counter whatever was meta at the time of their release. Dragon Buster Destruction Sword countered the Dragon Link strategy (or the dimension dragons, I might be way off on this one) Wizard Buster Destruction Sword countered Shaddolls And Robot Buster Destruction Sword countered Qliport So if more were made, I would think it would be things like Mind Buster Destruction Sword (a Psychic type that counters banish strategies), there could others, but I can't exactly think of too many off the top of my head. even then there is potential for new support, but it would kind of have to show more of the corrupted Buster Whelp as it placed different souls and such into the swords.
I never thought about Yugi getting it just for Kaiba, but it makes sense, it always beats Blue Eyes White Dragon with 3100 for being a Dragon, while Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon 3 blue eyes in graveyard + the fusion 4600, always that extra 100
Yah id like to see more support for this. Im actually running this in my more modern yugioh deck with his updated monsters or at least versions of his cards that i found interesting and useful.
I have a funny memory of Buster Blader be he was one of my only monster on my field and my friend head obelisk the tormentor and he had like 12 dragons in his grave yard and I forgot about buster blader’s affect until the last second which I remembered, and I got the win so that’s why I always kept this card in my Deck
This deck would be so much better if destruction swordsman counted as buster blader in the hand, and all the effects that reference "Buster Blader" could also be applied to the fusion.
Loving to see one of my favourite arc type got that much power, plus i really hope they making more of them since throught buster whelp growth ther are missing some level from level 1 to 3 and from level 4 to 8, if konami makes more of him i would be extremly happy and ready to play it even more as i already did
this deck is so much fun, its one of my mains in master duel its a little rough if you dont get the right cards, but once you get that combo, its all worth it
Maybe some fusions with other well known dragons or spellcasters? Dragons makes the most sense considering Wonder how a blue eyes or red eyes fusion would go
ok so for anyone that wondering about the Endymion connection the trap "Miracle Restoring" and the monster card Buster Wizard have Pitch Black Power Stone in the art. Everything that has Pitch Black Power Stone is related to Endymion in certain way

Man I love Buster Blader and the Destroyer archetype and the lore just made me appreciate them much more
4:58 fun fact,buster blader has 100 more attack than both aces (if we count his effect) 2600 over dark magicians 2500 and 3100 over 3000 blue eyes
So Buster Blader and his story is the spin off of the Endymion storyline. I love it.
Personally I would like to know how many monsters come from that city
@@lunarSoul0i think the witch crafters also originated from endymion

Has BLS only had the envoy cards? I swear there was a bit more
Yugi has phantom beast cards?! I know for Gazelle, Chimera and Berfomet but other?!
@Miss Kata they just announced in the past month or so a whole new card type around the phantom beasts that are illusionist type monsters
@@callummoran6497 yeah, there's more support for bls, both in gaia the fierce knight, and chaos
There's barely any lore in the Gaia archetype
He has an archetype?! He has a deep backstory too. He is a gentle soul. Until he slayed his best dragon buddy. 😭
The later Buster Blader cards were honestly the first time when I looked at their cards and went "Hold uo, there's an actual story being towards between these cards"
Anyone else under the impression and thinking that the story of the buster blader would make an awesome live action movie?
I've heard of his lore about raising the baby dragon, but killing the one you raised is messed up
The Buster Blader line has always been my favorite.
Nice lore about the Buster Blader before introducing the archetype. Interesting how the Buster Blader connects well with the Dark Magician, and by extension Yugi and Atem. It also makes sense for Atem to have Buster Blader to counter Seto Kaiba's blue eyes white dragon.
I remember strategies revolving around the fusion monster. It was either buster dragon OR the continuous trap that changes the type of ALL monsters. Either or both
Yep. When the fusion monster came out, I incorporated Buster Dragon, DNA surgery, or Rebirth Judgement. Mainly to prevent monster effects.
@@thehandsomeone8369 so was all 3 used at once or no?
@@GoldRichness All 3 could be used, but Rebirth is only used to massively increase the attack points of the Fusion Buster Blader and OG Buster Blader since Rebirth changes all monsters in the GY to a selected type. DNA in case you don't pull prologue.

That intro story hit deep, what a beautiful story.
Man, this is one of the saddest stories since the Impachi archetype
Buster blader is one of my favourite monster in the game!
My favorite monster in the entire game, love seeing it get attention. So heart-breaking, poor BB. 🥺🥺🥺
My headcanon is that the dragons that blader killed and well absorbed is the original bodies of the 5 headed dragon and there malice made them fused and turn into the fusion monster, also may have caused welps turn to savagery.
That fluffy little dragon is too cute. It looks like a hybrid of a baby dragon and baby goat!
Otherwise known as the bane of Kaiba’s existence.
I knew that some cards tell a continuing lore but this was one is really touching my feelings 😢
My favorite fusion monster of all time is Buster Blader the Dragon Destroyer Swordsman before I even knew the lore.
Blue Eyes White Dragon : "I'm invincible!!"
Buster Blader : "I'm going to end this dragon whole career."
Yay! Blaster Blaaaaade!
That's vanguard!
What makes buster blader even better against Kaiba is that if Kaiba even sends out one blue eyes white dragon, buster bladers attack goes up to 3100, 100 more than the blue eyes white dragon
I always thought buster blader was cool. Definitely one of Atem's cooler secondary ace cards
He is the one that got yugi slifer afterall
Didn't the anime specify that it was Yugi's monster and not Atem's?
@@xOmniCloudx this is also true. In the ceremonial duel, yugi got buster blader

Awesome vid man, keep up the great work!
Small addendum
DistructionSwordsman Fusion is also a Quickplay Spell that is an indeed an archetypal super Polymerization
so let’s say you use memories to discard dragon, buster destruction, sword
Activate, prologue to get buster dragon onto the field by dumping necessary materials, then vanish memories after everything resolves now you have buster blader, the fusion and buster dragon all in the field and any destruction, sword card you want to equip at that point
so, if you really wanted to, you could have two of the fusions, pretty neat, but unnecessary
Buster Blader is so iconic, Ninja Sex Party made a song about him
I remember hearing from Golden Nova that the destruction sword cards were made to counter whatever was meta at the time of their release.
Dragon Buster Destruction Sword countered the Dragon Link strategy (or the dimension dragons, I might be way off on this one)
Wizard Buster Destruction Sword countered Shaddolls
And Robot Buster Destruction Sword countered Qliport
So if more were made, I would think it would be things like
Mind Buster Destruction Sword (a Psychic type that counters banish strategies), there could others, but I can't exactly think of too many off the top of my head. even then there is potential for new support, but it would kind of have to show more of the corrupted Buster Whelp as it placed different souls and such into the swords.
I love buster blader, such a great monster and fusion, love em
such a great video, mentioning so many details.
I never thought about Yugi getting it just for Kaiba, but it makes sense, it always beats Blue Eyes White Dragon with 3100 for being a Dragon, while Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon 3 blue eyes in graveyard + the fusion 4600, always that extra 100
Yah id like to see more support for this. Im actually running this in my more modern yugioh deck with his updated monsters or at least versions of his cards that i found interesting and useful.
Finally been waiting on this one
The first rare card I've ever got as a kid and made my deck around it for God knows how long
I have a funny memory of Buster Blader be he was one of my only monster on my field and my friend head obelisk the tormentor and he had like 12 dragons in his grave yard and I forgot about buster blader’s affect until the last second which I remembered, and I got the win so that’s why I always kept this card in my Deck
This deck would be so much better if destruction swordsman counted as buster blader in the hand, and all the effects that reference "Buster Blader" could also be applied to the fusion.
the fusion spell allows you to use monsters on either side, and as a quicky aswell, so much potential
I think Dark Paladin represents Yugi himself since it is a combination of Dark Magician and Buster Blader
Loving to see one of my favourite arc type got that much power, plus i really hope they making more of them since throught buster whelp growth ther are missing some level from level 1 to 3 and from level 4 to 8, if konami makes more of him i would be extremly happy and ready to play it even more as i already did
Been playing Duel Links a lot this year and these vids really invigorate my love for yu gi oh even more 🥰🥰
Ive literally just made a buster blader deck a few days ago. Thank you so much
this deck is so much fun, its one of my mains in master duel
its a little rough if you dont get the right cards, but once you get that combo, its all worth it
I've been waiting for this
Level 2 tuner, Level 5 effect monster, Level 6 and 7 synchro monsters
I love how the Card Monsters have Lore!! We need more of this!
Buster Blader needs some more support perhaps more fusions to use it's decent variety of fusion support on
Maybe some fusions with other well known dragons or spellcasters? Dragons makes the most sense considering
Wonder how a blue eyes or red eyes fusion would go
That… that was beautiful. I’m feeling something right now.
I think you mean it's "implied" that Yugi went out of his way to pull Buster Blader from a booster pack.
Hands down one of my favourite small archetypes
My Boi getting his Archetype analysis lets gooooo
I love this archetype
ok so for anyone that wondering about the Endymion connection the trap "Miracle Restoring" and the monster card Buster Wizard have Pitch Black Power Stone in the art. Everything that has Pitch Black Power Stone is related to Endymion in certain way
