This one is relatively common and somewhat requested as Ermac's opponent, but I feel that it's still underrated overall. The idea of multiple souls clashing with Spiritomb's move pool feels like it would lend itself to a really cool animation and could be genuinely interesting. Especially with Vessa

Did you know that the sword that The Black Knight uses is basically just Evil Mjolnir? In all seriousness though, I think that there's a lot to be said about how we haven't had a no-gimmick sword fight since Afro Jack, and I think going from Samurai to Knight would be fun.

After the release of Dipity, this Primite-compatible LIGHT Fiend started collecting dust in peoples' bulk boxes. Such a shame too, he was pretty proud of himself. Answer: What is White Duston?

Pick a card. Any card, and for some reason, Yugipedia has a wholly separate page for the card's legality and rarity in Master Duel compared to the OCG/TCG/Genesys. Using Ib as an example, she has a different set of stats for MD compared to paper.

I've caught up on Lanterns recently, and I'll be honest: I just want this because I think it would be a really fun deep dive into the older iterations of characters we now associate with entirely different people. Jim Hammond Human Torch and Alan Scott Green Lantern would be fun.

So like… Remember how RF vs. GB was about two immortal paradoxes? Okay. Take that, turn the gore up to 11, and then make it between an immortal time lesbian isekai character and a guy who works for a time titan, and you have Akari Tokito vs. Gearas. AND I'M NOT KIDDING ABOUT THE GORE.

I’m more underwhelmed by Death Battle’s next time than I am upset. It’s just sorta… Meh. Goku Saitama is about to become a WidowWidow. It’ll be fine, but nothing memorable. That said, enjoy this meme interaction I made:

Honestly, two of the biggest TCGs should go at it. And while there's no MtG anime or show, there IS card lore. And the lore today is Jace and Albaz. Sure, this is mostly on legacy reasons, but it would still be fun to watch.

I know a lot of people lean towards Sailor Moon for Bloom (And Twilight), but this one… IDK. It just vibes for some reason. Maybe it's the whole "The toy show aimed towards girls but gets to absurd power levels" thing, but I feel that this one is interesting. Good Twi runback, good Winx intro.

Getting your data back is weird. You look back on older thumbnails and thunk "What was I thinking then?" Then you look at the date and realize "Oh right. I just pulled the alt art at locals, and I wanted to make a thumbnail."

I remember when I was first getting back into the game, Six Samurai looked pretty solid. Then it topped to the point that its main spell is STILL hit on the TCG/OCG list and is 100 points in Genesys. The only one where it's NOT hit is MD.

Y'all ever just start watching old shows or playing old games and just think "Wait… This matchup vibes!"? Because that's what I felt when I was replaying Fossil Fighters. Do people remember Dinosaur King? TBF, this is just "Team Rocket vs. Pilaf Gang, but with Dinosaurs" but still. This vibes.

The era this was banned was pretty much the early Synchro era. My best guess is that it was because of Black Rose Dragon nuking the board and then you rez something strong, but that’s a niche combo. It’s limited now, but that’s more for legacy reasons than it is for power level reasons.

I feel like one can tell what I've been playing/reading/watching recently based on what I post. Anyway, shoutout to the Fossil Fighters subreddit, without whom, this Duna vs. Dinobot TN would be a lot more scuffed. But yeah. Let's get some dinosaurs in Death Battle. It's been too long.

Lunalight lacks any real negates. They’re more inclined towards breaking boards and disrupting the opponent with a quick effect Raigeki. Now imagine if they HAD a negate. Or even an exclusive reborn that bypasses Liger’s restriction so kaiju are useless. All that counterplay stops mattering.

Someone once described Rex as "M-rated Sokka" and then this came into my brain. Overall, I like this one. It's just as good as Sokka's other opponents, and a lot better than Rex's opponents. And I think there's a lot of banter potential.

Legit. Sentinels of the Multiverse is a fun game, and it would be a blast to see other people play it. Absolute Zero is legit just a heroic version of Mr. Freeze, and the story and contrasts would be fun to analyze and look into. Seriously. Check the game out if you haven't already.

I've been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed out my Level vs Didn't I say to Make my Abilities Average in the Next Life are both underrated series, and are genuinely fun spins on the "OP Isekai Protag" premise. Underrated matchup. Should be talked about more.

Just… Why? The card is iconic to DM heads, so just… Why? The sword looks nowhere as impressive, the colors look off, and the hand looks like it's broken. Why does the hand look broken?

Well. Let's cap off Pride month with the two characters who always bring into question what gender they are. Natsuru Seno and Ranma Satome really have a lot to work with, even with their limited media. Plus, it would be nice to have something that's less cosmic and more street after SentryPrime.

Gonna be honest, not only would the music for this slap, but this genuinely feels like the best matchup for both, just off of vibes. … Between this and Azula Cyclonis, I'm starting to realize I have a weird knack for picking matchups that involve cartoons that were made in Canada.

Marvel vs DC is hardly an underrated matchup series, but I think that Owlman vs Patton Parnel would have the most underrated matchup overall. Sure, it's basically Batman Spider-Man, but evil, but we don't get these two specifically all too often.

First day of Pride Month, and let's kick things off with "If I had a nickel for every time a powerful dark-haired mage redeemed a villainess by being a nigh-relentless simp, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice." Read Mage and Demon Queen.

If I had a nickel for every time a girl had to battle invisible monsters in secret and it reeked havoc on her social life, I'd have two nickels. You know the rest. I recommend Venus Versus Virus. It's a fun series.

Gonna be honest, this one is just "Fairy of Nature vs. Witch of the Black Rose." The fight writes itself from those monikers alone. But hey. Whatever keeps Flora away from Poison Ivy or Petey Piranha. And I guess this is a suitable alt for Akiza if that Persona guy gets less popular.

This week's slept-on matchup is my IRL friend's most wanted, Blake vs. Rayla. In all honesty, I have very little confidence in Rayla winning, but this is one that I think would be fun to see being animated. Especially if it's set at night. We don't get a lot of nighttime battles these days…

One of the most interesting decks, super integral to the development of one of the main characters, has two decks (which is more than what other characters could claim), and both decks have super contrasting play styles that could've been explored. Has like… Three and a half duels.

On this week's slept-on matchup, let's do a Star Wars one since, May 4th. I'm not sure HOW slept-on this is, but a blind swordsman matchup is not only a lot of fun, but there's also a mentor aspect to this one (if we don't count the newest reboot). But I don't see this talked about too often, so…

Gonna be honest, this one isn't necessarily underrated, people just want other opponents for these two. But 1: I wanna see Dorothea blasting Harriet with a Thoron. 2: I wanna see the discourse that comes from this.

Gonna be honest, I think that this is probably April's best opponent. April O'Neil vs. Sam Witwicky feels like it would be a lot of fun, especially since we often forget how important the humans are in these respective series.

This is less me posting a matchup that’s slept on and more me being upset at Shonen Jump for axing a manga. Neehan and Jack Joe vs. Kou and Chiyou would have gone hard if SJ hadn’t axed Kaedegami. Yeah, the pacing wasn’t the greatest, but the characters and art were awesome. I’m still upset.

For the fifth matchup I feel that people are sleeping on, I present Speed Racer and Vert Wheeler. Specifically Battle Force 5 Vert. Honestly, I think that we could just use a car fight. The last one we had was Joker VS Sweet Tooth nearly a decade ago. We need more. Also: Mach 5 vs. BF5 vibes.

Hopefully, I can get my old files back today because I don't wanna have to recreate 1100+ thumbnails from scratch, nor do I want to go thru the effort of trying to recover them from my Google Drawing History. Sumire Takahana vs. Juniper Lee is the next one that's being slept on.

Maybe I'll make this a weekly thing. Post a matchup that I think is being slept on. It's so weird that Jaune and Sky are easily some of my least favorite protagonists in RWBY and Winx Club respectively, but despite them being untoasted and unbuttered white bread, this vibes.

On today's "Matchups that are slept on", I present Flash Gordon vs. Buck Rogers. We flat-out would not have the Space Opera genre, or the Sci-Fi as we know it without these two, and we are long overdue for giving them their flowers.

Random-ass fun fact: In the OCG specifically, the Fossil Fusion Monsters were named after different time periods in history. With the Level 4 ones being from the Cenezoic era and the Level 8s being from the Paleozoic era. If you've ever wondered why they're in the Paleo Pack in MD, that's why.

I feel like this one is being slept on. Two post-apocalyptic sword girlies in worlds run by machines? You could even reference Linkage/the NieR Automata cover at the end, utterly regardless of the victor.
