Yu-Gi-Oh! Epic Battles #5: Tom (User-Submitted Character) vs. "Bandit" Keith Howard

This was the first Epic Battle to involve a character submitted by another yugiohcardmaker.net user. His character is a kid named Tom who uses a Machine deck. There are multiple versions of this duel, but this is the official version that is canon to the Epic Battles timeline. This is also the first Epic Battle to acknowledge the planned storyline for the series.

This is the last duel to be posted on yugiohcardmaker.net, so unless I decide to post the alternate versions, this is the last Epic Battle for now.

Duel Five

An Unexpected Meeting

Yu-Gi-Oh! Epic Battles #4: Yuma Tsukumo vs. The Other Yugi Part Four (Final)

Yuma continues to throw everything he can at Yugi, but Yugi is Yugi, so I think we all know where this is going...

Duel Four

Yuma vs. Yugi

Yu-Gi-Oh! Epic Battles #4: Yuma Tsukumo vs. The Other Yugi Part Three

Let's be fair to Yuma here: he's been fighting the "combat form" Yugi without going into his combat form, the form achieved through the power of Zexal. But to be fair to Yugi, he has been fighting at a greater than usual disadvantage, since he started out not understanding the nature of Yuma's Number monsters. It is in this chapter that things finally begin to equalize.

Duel Four

Yuma vs. Yugi

Yu-Gi-Oh! Epic Battles #4: Yuma Tsukumo vs. The Other Yugi Part Two

The duel continues, and it soon becomes clear to pretty much everyone except Yuma just how in control Yugi is, even if he is having to learn the rules of Yuma's cards on the fly. Will Yuma even stand a chance once Yugi has had time to fully analyze how they work?

Duel Four

Yuma vs. Yugi

Yu-Gi-Oh! Epic Battles #4: Yuma Tsukumo vs. The Other Yugi Part One

In this four part Epic Battle, the most underrated Yu-Gi-Oh! protagonist since Judai, Yuma, gets the chance to test his abilities against, not Yugi Muto, but the other Yugi, the Great Pharaoh Atem. Neither of them knows who the other is, and it is unclear if their meeting ever actually happened, but it is still an interesting duel, and I do plan for Yugi and Yuma to meet again over the course of this series. This gives us a preview of what that might be like.

Keep in mind that neither of them is at the point in their timeline when they are their strongest, so things might go differently if they were to duel again.

Duel Four

Yuma vs Yugi

Yu-Gi-Oh! Epic Battles #3: Judai Yuki vs. Judai Yuki Part Three (Final)

Things heat up even further, and it seems like, just maybe, these two are more equal footing than one might expect.

Duel Three

Judai Yuki (Season One)

vs.

Judai Yuki (Season Four)

Yu-Gi-Oh! Epic Battles #3: Judai Yuki vs. Judai Yuki Part Two

Things finally get going in this chapter. It is all action from here, plus what I think is some pretty good character analysis of Judai from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, who changed probably more than any other Yu-Gi-Oh! protagonist over the course of his series.

Also, keep an eye out for an original card in this chapter. I designed and even illustrated it myself, along with a second original Judai card. I'll post them at the end of the chapter.

Duel Three

Judai Yuki (Season One)
vs.
Judai Yuki (Season Four)

Yu-Gi-Oh! Epic Battles #3: Judai Yuki vs. Judai Yuki Part One

Since I was stupid enough to lose my draft for DF7, while I am looking for it, I have decided to copy/paste some more of my Epic Battles from yugiohcardmaker.net. I will also be continuing the series here, up to the point that I had finished plotting it out. I don't know how often that'll be, but whatevs.

There's no action in this one, just set-up, so keep that in mind.

Duel Three

Judai Yuki (Season One)

vs.

Judai Yuki (Season Four)

Yu-Gi-Oh! Reaper - Chapter Twenty

This chapter is a short one, but it didn't need to be anything more. We can see that, for the two detectives, things are changing, but for Reaper himself, things are exactly the same as they've always been. I'll allow anyone who actually reads this to determine for themselves exactly what this means. Regardless, Reaper is over, and I can finally continue with the latest story of the Duel Force. I think I'll need to take a few days, though.

Chapter Twenty

The Beginning

Yu-Gi-Oh! Reaper - Chapter Nineteen

I don't even want to talk about this one. It hurt me to write. Hopefully it will hurt you to read, because that's the point.

Chapter Nineteen

The Battle

Yu-Gi-Oh! Reaper - Chapter Eighteen

It's been a while since I've posted here, longer than I intended. I decided to shift a few details of this story around, and it took longer than I expected. Regardless, here is the next chapter of Reaper! It's a big one where a lot of important stuff happens, so I'm just going to get right to it and let you see for yourself.

Chapter Eighteen

The Killer
