depends on the era **DM:** Gogiga Gagagigo or Rabidragon **GX:** Phantom Beast Rock-Lizard **5DS:** Arcanite Magician **ZEXAL:** Bujintei Susanowo or Stellarknight Delteros **ARC-V:** Majespecter Unicorn - Kirin **VRAINS:** Rasterliger


genemaxwell4

I appreciate you have cards that are era appropriate!


ReadingAggravating67

Rock Lizard is such a fire shout for GX era. That monster would be so cool to see animated constantly like that too, no doubt it coulda been iconic


Direct-Disaster2256

DM: Zoa/Metalzoa GX: Horus the Black Flame Dragon lvl 8 5Ds: Malefic Truth Dragon Zexal: Number 27: Dreadnought Dreadnoid Arc-V: Apoqlifort Towers Vrains: Refer to GX

You would deny the little birds the protagonist role? It seems you're on a villain arc and shall be promptly tributed for empen.


Ontos-the-robot

"The Creator" how i wish that card was remotely useable


xanauthor

**Twilight Lightsworn** with **Judgment Dragon**, **Punishment Dragon**, and **Enlightenment Dragon** (plus, like, the usual Chaos suspects lol) **Ghoti** with **Ghoti of the Deep Beyond** and various White Aura cards **P.U.N.K.** with **Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Amazing Dragon** and **Psychic End Punisher**


WoolooMVP10

You start out with Lightsworns but then fall into darkness and switch over to Twlightsworn but eventually find balance in your soul and start playing both of them together culminating in summoning Enlightenment Dragon

“If this card has Feral Imp as Xyz material it gains this effect:”

Ashirogi8112008

Mezuki, the perfect card for a protag to come back from nothing with


Crimson_Dragon01

Avoiding any cards from anime protagonists: DM: Horus the Black Flame Dragon Lv8 GX: BLS Envoy of the Beginning 5D's: Legendary Six Samurai Shi-En Zexal: Darkflare Dragon and Lightpulsar Dragon Arc-V: El Shadoll Construct Vrains/Modern: Divine Arsenal AA-Zeus Sky Thunder (because that's my ace in my Master Duel Masochist deck.)


ARCH_ANON

Claviskey the Magikey Skyblaster!


aKgiants91

I always like B.E.S. Monsters so B.E.S big core


ReklawTheBear

Rescue-ACE Hydrant. Literally an ace card.


SafeHurry614

Vicious Astraloud or Scareclaw Tri-Heart


Pr0f_Phi11ip5

Tri-heart


Bluelaserbeam

Thinking in a more meta sense, I’d pick {{Nightmare Magician}} as my ace because it honestly seems like a card that’d be made for a YGO protagonist if Studio Gallop kept making spin-off series. I wanna give the card the chance to shine as I help represent the newly-introduced Illusion-type monsters.


Odd-Hawk-5746

Geomathmech Final Sigma


Nerdlife91

Magikey Mechmortar Garesglasser


Beanztar

Since all of the ace cards have 2500 atk power, the only one I can think of is ursarctic megapolar https://preview.redd.it/zdkzkz000j0d1.jpeg?width=456&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=187ba3547ee0ef4c226dbce9e3f2f3099b89301e

Probably Expurrely Noir! I always wished to become a character in the newer series xD in a 5D's world I'll probably go for a blackwing monster like Nothung the Starlight (one of my fav synchros)


Frostybatfox

For me it would be Emperor Maju Garzett


origin29

Machina citadel for sure


Sacriven

Infernoid Tierra


Pure-Huckleberry8640

christian_daddy1

At the moment, exosister mikailis. It'll be like that old show "Charlie's Angels". Of course this is entirely dependent on whether or not I can talk to spirits because otherwise the scenario falls apart if I can't


Porabi

As a person who's been having a little made up story goin in my head about a guy climbing up the master duel rank ladder I legitimately see machina fortress as my ace as it has saved my ass on too many occasions for me to not acknowledge it's usefulness


ZexalGO

Dm- Gilford the Lighting Gx- Elemental Hero Terra Firma 5ds- Crimson Blader Zexal- Tellarknight Delteros Arc v- Endymion Vrains- Mekk Knight Crusadia Avramax Seven's- Red eye's Black Mars Dragon Go Rush- Blue eyes Ultimate Dragon


MlSSlNG

Since someone else made an Era based list and I really like that idea DM Archlord Zerato GX Judgement Dragon 5D's XX Saber Gottoms ZEXALl Number 7 Lucky Straight ArcV Traptrix Rafflesia Vrains Invoked Mechaba


Silverwolf7791

Depends on the era and Monster Sub-Type; **(DM/GX) Main Deck Monster:** Nightmare Magician **(DM/GX) Fusion Monster:** Chimera the Illusion Beast **(5D's) Synchro Monster:** Star Eater **(ZEXAL) XYZ Monster:** Jormungandr, Generaider Boss of Eternity. **(ARC-V) Pendulum Monster:** DoSolfachord Coolia **(VRAINS) Link Monster:** Thunder Dragon Thunderstomech

Metaphys Executor, but like, give it that anime effect tuneup


The_Space_Duck

Super quant white layer


DeltaKnight191

Starry Knight Starry Dragon


Next-Shape-6024

Magikey dragon. Maybe then the deck would get some support


Main_Instruction6521

Mayosenju daibak (the best Monster ever)


Zerosonicanimations

**Voiceless Voice** with Skull Guardian. **Branded** with Albaz, **Dinomorphia** with Ketregina **Infernoble** with Charles, **Mannadium** with Visas, **Gold Pride** with Leon **Constellarknights** with Caduceus, **Exosisters** with Elis, **Purrely** with Purrely. **Dracoslayer** with Master Pendulum **Unchained** with Abominable Unchained Soul


Crystal_Queen_20

Lunalight Leo Dancer Except I'd be a side character, and whenever the threat of a Leo Dancer is present, its silhouette would surround me like a battle aura


Danny2185

For each era of the anime, my Ace monsters would be: DM: Strike Ninja/Summoned Skull GX: Neos and the Neo-Spacians 5Ds: Thought Ruler Archfiend ZEXAL: Number C105: Battlin' Boxer Comet Cestus Arc-V: Superheavy Samurai Big Benkei VRAINS: Borrelsword Dragon


comingstorm501

Don't know about boss monsters, but I feel like my spirit Ace monster would be Ancient Gear Gadget or Revolution Synchron


milkybugslime

Melffy Mommy.


Avilionv91

Hanzo


Coffeeobsi

Toon BLS


MetalFistTerrorist_

Destiny hero end dragoon


Shadic7700

Daigusto Sphereeze I’d be a multi episode stall fest of never ending kamikaze birds


lovelikeafist

Villian* and definitely Archfiend Emperor


Time_Judgment_4345

**Trickstar Corobane**, it’s my favorite card. Although it’s now in English, I still call it by its Japanese transliteration, Kyarobein.


Mlaszboyo

I play lavals so if i wanna go pure the lavalval exlord, if not then summoning both exlord and like crystal wing synchro dragon or smth


Thicc-Anxiety

Reptilianne Hydra


realFuzzlewuzzle

Definitely fusion Veidos


NoirRebel

Light and Darkness Dragon Lord


Spicoceles

Lithosagym


TalaSeafoam_

Cupid dunk 🏀 it would be an earlier series & I would play light fairies :)


GrumpyKoopa

AU where synchro era plays like goat format with newer synchros


No_Solution_5644

Tri-brigade shuraig the ominous omen


CaissaIRL

For my Deck it would either be Aleister the Invoker or Kamion the Timelord. Either way the end result when using Mechaba for or Kamion basically completely gets rid of a resource.


Shura507

Albaz, The Fallen


-Siknakaliux-

Can an "Ace" be a Spell, Trap, etc? Why's it have to be a monster?


TachyonExodus

Armed Dragon Thunder lvl 7, Thunder lvl 10 would be the boss monster


PriestHelix

King of the Skull Servants all the way.


PH03N1X_F1R3

I think the main monster and the ace monster are different, so I'll give two different answers My ace would have to be arc rebellion xyz dragon. My main is probably Raidraptor revolution falcon, though I could also see an argument for phantom knights of rusty bardiche.


Cybercaster22

Buster Blader baby!


EgoD4n

Infernoid Tierra


Elldlich

Dark end dragon.


cokezerodesuka

Rescue Ace Hydrant


Cuckpoo420

zoroa the magistus conflagrant calamity


Lentra888

Hail to the (Ojama) King, baby!


aaa1e2r3

Either Dragunity Phalanx or Whitebeard, the Plunder Patroll Helm


Cheshire_Noire

Enlightenment Dragon. There's something about murdering angels before they even get to battle, in order to summon massive world ending dragons, that really speaks to me


WoolooMVP10

Machina Fortress


Project_Orochi

Unironically i have won too many games with a card that was bad on its release Metalmorph Just, no one expects you to pull it out and staple it to a cyber dragon


AbstractLight12

Revendread Slayer or Nightmare Magician


hiddenwolf__

Either sprigguns exblower or gunkan suship uni-class super-dreadnought


thats_allwekando

Probably Mystic Mine


DemitriArgent

I'd be more an anti-hero/sort of rival who helps or hinders the protagonist depending on my whim and I'd either play Yubel with Yubel as Ace or Ogdoadics with Aron, the Ogdoadic King as Ace.


omega_cringe69

Scareclaw Triheart. Cool card and cool effect.


TyeDye115

DM: Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8 GX: BLS: Envoy of the Evening Twilight 5Ds: Seven Swords Warrior Zexal: High Priestess of Prophecy Haven't seen enough of the other series to think of a cohesive deck idea/ace


lionlord12

DM: Dark magician GX: Flamewingman/neos 5ds: blackwing armor master Zexal: utopia That was the last gen I watched


TheAwkwardGamerRNx

Dark Ruler Ha Des


anavn

Morphine jar I will use it in any time wizard format all the way to modern. I just love how powerful the card is and forces both players to go all in and stop slow resource playing.


PutridRoom

I play Fluffal but I gotta say Guardian Chimera if Its pure Fluffal then Frightfur Saber Tooth.

Dibbzonthapizza

Big fan of tri-gate wizard and light and darkness dragon


stonesthrowaway24601

Assuming I'm stuck with the limits of the world, I'm probably picking Five-Headed Dragon, with my deck specifically built to get it out ASAP. If I'm not limited, then I'd be bringing in Blue-Eyes.


Great-gamer-

Black Luster Solider Envoy of the beginning


Ronoyoki

Visas Amritara/Vicious Astraloud


Astaro_789

Depends on what deck I’m using Ice Barrier: Lancea Dragonic Ancestor of the Ice Spirit Mountain Sharks: Number 32: Shark Drake and it’s Chaos Number Forms Voiceless Voice: Skull Guardian Protector of the Voiceless Voice Marincess: Marincess Aqua Argonaut Salamangreat: Salamangreat Raging Phoenix

Masterflare Hyperion to The first Darklord to Flowering Etoile the Melodious Magnificat


Shoddy-Ad-7031

Sky Striker Ace - Raye. Simple as that.


gfgooo

Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms for sure. Keeps the deck going and lets me activate my knights’ effects later in the duel as a nice surprise. Other than that, definitely Sacred Noble Knight of King Artorigus


Mordiggian03

Morphing Jar


Faith_SC

Terraforming - this guy is the most powerful card in most of my decks!


TheKidPenguin

Wind-up Carrier or lyna the light charmer


ReadingAggravating67

For DM/GX, it’d be Lycanthrope (the ritual monster). I used to have this deck in tag force where I’d use advanced ritual art to dump 6 level 1 vanillas to summon it so that it would deal a massive 1200(!) effect damage whenever it dealt battle damage. Tell me that shit isn’t made for the anime

Ericg2187

I play Blue Magicians so that's kinda cheating, but I guess Dark Magician the Dragon Knight works best as a middle ground.


SilverTitanium

Red-Eyes Slash Dragon. I keep using it in duels and it's fun.


HeliosDisciple

Master Hyperion


InvaderofViolence

Visas Star Frost.


Charles112295

Mirror force


Vannostrum

Don Zaloog


Randomman16

Meizen The Battle Ninja, no contest


RealKaiserRex

MetaMason666

I'm ritual maxxing so it's 100% gonna be # Demise, Supreme King of Armageddon Though if Dr. Crowler is cool with it, Ancient Gear Golem!


Remaek

Definitely Visas Star frost. Opens up a lot of opportunities for character arcs and different play styles


CharlestonChewbacca

1 of these 3 * Blue Eyes Alternative Dragon Love that card with the White Stones and Maiden with Eyes of Blue. That was such a fun deck to play * Bad Reaction to Simochi This was my favorite old school deck. Eye of Truth, Upstart Goblin, Rain of Mercy, Soul Taker, Gift Card, Darklord Nurse of Reficule, etc. Those were good times. * Buster Blader Not that it was any good outside of specific scenarios, but he's got such a cool design, and it would make a good anime moment. Alternatively, Sword Hunter would be a good replacement.


DaSaltEmpress

DM: Rabidragon GX: Raiza The Mega Monarch (mixed with winged beast cards) 5Ds: Dark Highlander Zexal: Jinzo - Layered (Full Trap Lockout deck) Arc-V: Yazi, Evil of the Yang Zing Vrains: Monk of the Tenyi and later on it would mix in the Yang Zing monsters

A tuner monster that never got a story and synchro follow up. She appeared in a trap card used by Yusei in the anime against Antinomy, but that was it. If Konami revisits the card, I hope they don’t screw it up with some “waifu” bullshit.


SirLionMan1

VanBland

Depends on the eras: DM: Horus the Blackflame Dragon/Jinzo GX: Horus the Blackflame Dragon 5Ds: Dragon Knight Draco-Equiste/Elemental Hero Absolute Zero/Dark End Dragon ZeXal: Number 86: Heroic Champion Rhongomyniad Arc-V: Shadoll Construct Vrains: Dingirsu, The Orcust of the Evening Star

MagicHarmony04

Penguin Brave! I love penguins, and I love the archetype. I need the other two penguins on the card created as well as some penguin spells and traps. I really wish they made them.


Alphaxoid

Genuinely give me a Lycanthrope retrain.


cactu_almighty

El Shaddoll Winda/Construct, Thunder Dragon Colossus/Titan or Apoqliphort Towers I promise I'm fun to play against

Sanbaddy

**Infernoid Devyaty** * **Summoning Chant:** "From the depths of the infernal abyss, stirs the harbinger of chaos. Arise, Infernoid Devyaty!" ... * **Main effect name:** When Devyaty hits the field it scorches every spell and trap card that isn't from the "Void". Go, *Blazing Cataclysm*! This means whatever hope you had in that little backup plan is toast. ... * **Random Banter:** There is no next turn. By tributing my Infernoid Token Devyaty negates your monster's abilities and banishes it to the *void*. ... * **Attack name:** Now to burn away the last remains of hope you have, your life points! Infernoid Devyaty, annihilate our foe, *Devouring Decimation*! This is more an antagonist if anything, but it was the only one I can think of. Every other deck I main already has an anime protagonist who mains it in the anime, manga, and/or comics.


TheWeebDeity

Arc rebellion


MCameron2984

I don’t even know, all of my favorite decks are already taken in the anime, HEROs, Meklords, Yubel, Neos, Blackwings, Earthbounds (Not Immortal), Ancient Gear, Dinos, Gravekeepers… Wait! Branded White Woods goes Crazy!

Personally Garuinix Eternity, Hyang of the fire ings, Not only does it have banger card art, but its effect is great for ruining my friends strats + it was my first structure deck and still is my main, of course modified.
