Deus ex Machina like isn't it. Sabatiel during the first season was another Deus-ex Machina card. I respect Yubel for being a duelist that never lost, or never could have lost to Judai/Jaden.
Sacred Beasts are alright, Raviel is my favorite, easiest to summon if you don't take into account the Jewel Beasts.
But the god cards? Damn man, those cards were awesome. I remember the time Kaiba summoned Obelisk against Yugi/Yami...pure awesome, even Slifer's summon by Yami against Bakura was awesome.
Though they never should have called Ra a Dragon, imo he seemed better off as a Phoenix.

I can kinda understand the 2nd part, but the God Cards? How can you love the series and not be fond of them? 😱 I guess 'cause they were overpowered? Well, it wasn't necessarily because of how powerful they were that I liked 'em so much. They were just epic monsters. Never could decide which one I liked best out of the three though. mmm Appearance-wise and what not, I suppose Slifer, but I don't quite like how he works in the card game compared to the other two. meh
Don't really remember whether the monsters became real or not. The damage was, so they most likely were.
Though in all fairness, I was referring to Judai's/Jaden's duels to save the universe.
iirc, Yami/Yugi never dueled for the fate of the universe. World maybe, but no antagonist in Yu-Gi-Oh! came close to wielding the power that Saiou did...I may be wrong, but Saiou or specifically the Light of Destruction was crazy powerful.
No sarcasm right 😛?
Ra in Phoenix form has the best design imo. If you compare the god cards to the sacred beasts, the sacred beasts have much more detail, and a much more varied palette, Obelisk is like one shade of blue mostly.
Slifer should also not have had that top mouth, removed 2000 atk/def iirc, overpowered 😛, and also the bottom mouth looks much more imposing.
