==Design==The "'''Elemental HERO'''" (Japanese: {{Ruby|Ｅ・ＨＥＲＯ|エレメンタルヒーロー}} monsters are based after the western comics''Erementaru Hīrō'') is a "[[HERO]]" sub-[[archetype]] heroes, and as the name implies, they each represent an aspect of mostly [[Warrior]]-[[Type]] [[Monster Card|monsters]] (the nature. This goes beyond only exceptions being the [[Plant]]-Type representing classical elements like earth, fire or water; "[[Elemental HERO Knospe|KnospeWildheart]] and [[Elemental HERO Poison Rose|Poison Rose]])", used by [[Jaden Yuki]] and [[Aster Phoenix]] (for a period of time until he changed to [[Destiny HERO|Destiny HEROes]]) in example, represents the animewilderness. Jaden also used this archetype along with his mentor Their [[Koyo HibikiFusion Monster]] in s typically combine the aspects from their [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (manga)|mangaFusion Material]]s.

They were designed by In the ''[[Kazuki TakahashiOCG]]'', and are themed after comic-book superheroes from all of the [[Main Deck]] monsters introduced in the anime , except "[[Elemental HERO Neos]]" and are based off natural elements "[[Elemental HERO Prisma|Prisma]]", follow the naming scheme "Elemental HERO [Term related to its element] Man" (or "Lady", in the case of "[[Elemental HERO Burstinatrix]]" aka "Burst Lady"). In the manga, only "[[Elemental HERO Woodsman]]" ("Forestman" in the ''OCG'') and "[[Elemental HERO Stratos|Stratos]]" ("Airman" in the ''OCG'') follow the scheme while others like "[[Elemental HERO Ice Edge|Ice Edge]]" or "[[Elemental HERO Heat|Heat]]" do not. "[[Elemental HERO Captain Gold]]" is unique to the ''OCG''/''TCG'' and doesn't follow the naming scheme, but later cards like "[[Elemental HERO Blazeman|Blazeman]]", "[[Elemental HERO Solid Soldier|Solid Soldier]]" ("Solidman") and "[[Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier|Liquid Soldier]]" ("Liquidman") do.

==GroupingPlaying style==The "Elemental HERO" archetype has many [[Elemental HERO Avian|AvianMain Deck]]", "monsters and [[Elemental HERO Burstinatrix|BurstinatrixExtra Deck]]", "[[Elemental HERO Clayman|ClaymanFusion Monster]]s, each with their own varied effects. Historically, the archetype can be built to focus on their Main Deck monsters or their Fusion Monsters; currently, the Main Deck " and "[[Elemental HERO Bubbleman|Bubbleman]]" monsters are often grouped together because there is at least one Fusion Monster for each pair too weak in contrast to the general power level of them (except "Avian" the game, and later "Clayman"), as well as "[[Elemental HERO Electrum]]" using all four as support leaned into their [[Fusion MaterialSummon]]sing playstyle more favorably.

The pure "Elemental HERO" playstyle aims to Fusion Summon their Extra Deck Fusion boss monsters by [[search]]ing out their required [[Fusion Material]]s and "[[Polymerization (archetype)|Polymerization]]"/"[[Fusion (archetype)|Fusion]]" [[Spell Card]]s as quickly as possible. This can be done through a combination of specific "Elemental HERO Necroshade|Necroshade" support cards (e.g. "[[A Hero Lives]]" and "[[E - Emergency Call]]"), generic "[[HERO]]" support cards (e.g. "[[Elemental HERO Wildheart|WildheartStratos]]", and "[[Elemental HERO Bladedge|BladedgeShadow Mist]]" are often grouped together because there is at least one Fusion Monster for each pair of them (except and "Necroshade[[Vision HERO Vyon]]" ), and non-archetypal [[Warrior]] support cards (e.g. "Bladedge[[Reinforcement of the Army]]").

Even though The "Elemental HERO" Fusion Monsters typically have battle-focused effects with little defensive capabilities. Most "Elemental HERO" Fusion Monsters also require Fusion Materials with specific names, but some of them have more generic [[material]]s, thus are much easier to summon. The 6 most notable ones are "[[Elemental HERO Great Tornado]]", "[[Elemental HERO SparkmanNova Master|SparkmanNova Master]]" was introduced very early on and is usually on cards like , "[[Elemental HERO The Shining|The Shining]]", "[[Elemental HERO Escuridao|Escuridao]]", "[[Fifth HopeElemental HERO Absolute Zero|Absolute Zero]]" , and "[[Elemental HERO's BondGaia|Gaia]]" , which require 1 "Elemental HERO" monster and a monster with the first groupa specific [[Attribute]] as their materials, it only has a 2 Material Fusion Monster making them useful choices to summon with "Clayman[[Super Polymerization]]" by using an opponent's monster as material. Among these 6, "Escuridao" (and "Absolute Zero" are the 3 Material most commonly used, because "Escuridao's"[[DARK]] Attribute is ubiquitous when mixed with other "HERO" monsters, and "Absolute Zero" has a very strong effect, and also only requires a "HERO" monster rather than an "Elemental HERO Tempest" monster as its material, making it even easier to Summon in a general "HERO" [[Deck]]. Following behind are " with "Avian[[Elemental HERO Sunrise]]" and "Bubbleman[[Elemental HERO Flame Wingman - Infernal Rage]]"), unlike whose materials can make use of the rest; however, varying Attributes of "SparkmanElemental HERO" does monsters and they both have effects to search out yet another card that can Summon another "Elemental HERO" Fusion Monsters with Monster ("[[Miracle Fusion]]" and "[[Favorite Contact]]"). "Necroshade[[Wake Up Your Elemental HERO]]" is the archetype's powerhouse that requires any number of Warrior monsters and an "BladedgeElemental HERO"Fusion Monster, making it questionable which he should be grouped incan easily use close out games with its powerful attacks and can float into any Warrior monster from the Deck upon its destruction.

An "Elemental HERO" Deck can consider running "[[Elemental HERO NeosKing of the Swamp]]" is instead seen as having his own support often grouped with the "and other [[Neo-SpacianFusion Substitute Monster]]sfor "Elemental HERO" Fusion Monsters with specified materials.

Lastly, ===With "[[Elemental HERO Blazeman|Blazeman]]Neos" and ", Neo-Spacian"[[Elemental HERO Stratos==={{See also|Stratos]]" and "[[Elemental HERO Shadow Mist|Shadow MistNeo-Spacian#Playing style]]" are considered a group of their own due to their superiority over others.}}

==Design==The While "[[Elemental HEROes' designs are based after HERO Neos]]" is featured as main piece of the western comics' heroes. In "Neo-Spacian" and "[[Neos]]" archetypes that usually uses [[Contact Fusion]] or other effects to Special Summon the Japanese versionFusion Monsters that mention "Elemental HERO Neos" as material, their nomenclature is this mainly differs from the traditional Fusion Summon playstyle of "Elemental HERO (term related to its element) "manin general. Over time however, the "[[Neos]]"/"Neo-Spacian" (for theme has been integrated with the masculine heroes, with traditional "Elemental HERO" Fusion Summon playstyle by the only exception introduction of newer support. These include: "[[Elemental HERO Prisma|PrismaCross Keeper]]"). The only feminine heroes are , the "EN" cards ("[[Elemental HERO Burstinatrix|BurstinatrixEN - Engage Neo Space]]", "[[EN Shuffle]]" and "[[EN Wave]]") and new "Elemental HERO" Fusion Monsters that must be Fusion Summoned such as "[[Elemental HERO Lady Heat|Lady HeatBrave Neos]]", "[[Elemental HERO Poison Rose|Poison RoseNeos Knight]]" and "[[Elemental HERO Shadow Mist|Shadow MistShining Neos Wingman]]" (. In particular, "Elemental HERO Flame Wingman - Infernal Rage" facilitates the first two having Summon of "Elemental HERO Shining Neos Wingman"Ladyby searching " instead of Favorite Contact" which can Summon "ManNeos Wingman" in their Japanese name). Some of during the names are changed in opponent's turn to disrupt the English versionopponent.

As the name says"[[Elemental HERO Spirit of Neos]]" can search "Polymerization" or a Spell/Trap that mentions an "Elemental HERO" monster upon its Special Summon, which facilitates easier use of the niche classic "Elemental HEROesHERO" each represent support. Then it can tag itself out with an element of nature"Elemental HERO" Normal Monster from the Deck. In western cultureThese effects in tandem grant easy access to use the "Elemental HERO" Normal Monsters-oriented cards (like the [[Counter Trap Card]] "[[Feather Wind]]", which negates the main elements are fire, water, air, earth, light and darkness, but in eastern culture, more elements are considered, such as lightning, wood, metal and iceactivation of a Spell/Trap Card with "[[Elemental HERO Avian]]"), though ice is many times not considered since it's part will usually search most of the "waterElemental HERO Neos"-oriented cards or "[[Protection of the Elements]]" (another Counter Trap Card which can negate the activation of a Spell/Trap Card by using any "Elemental HERO" monster for its activation requirements as opposed to "Feather Wind" requiring "Elemental HERO Avian"specifically).

The manga doesn't follow ===Other "HERO" support===Within the entire "[[HERO]]" meta-archetype, the "Elemental HERO" archetypal playstyle is strongly supported by the same theme as "[[Vision HERO]]" combo ("[[Vision HERO Faris|Faris]]" → "[[Vision HERO Increase|Increase]]" → "[[Vision HERO Vyon|Vyon]]") since "Vyon" can search out "[[Polymerization]]" and can [[send]] "[[Elemental HERO Shadow Mist]]" to the anime[[GY]] to search out more needed "Elemental HERO" monsters. The "Vision HERO" [[Fusion Monster]]s, "[[Vision Hero Adoration|Adoration]]" and "[[Vision HERO Trinity|Trinity]]", but the heroes still are based after those same elementsalso good options for an "Elemental HERO" Deck to run due to their generic Fusion [[Material]]s of just any "HERO" monsters.

==Playing style=="[[Elemental HEROSolid Soldier]]" Decks mainly focus on using cards like and "[[Miracle FusionElemental HERO Liquid Soldier|Liquid Soldier]]", "are good monsters to [[PolymerizationNormal Summon]]", and "as they can [[Super PolymerizationSpecial Summon]]needed "HERO" monsters (usually "Shadow Mist" to search for "[[Mask Change]]") and/or provide useful advantage after being used for a Fusion Summon]] (reviving a variety of "HERO" monster from the GY via "Solid Soldier" or allows [[Fusion MonsterDraw a card|drawing of 2 cards]]s+ a discard with "Liquid Soldier"). For Lastly, "[[Elemental HEROHonest Neos|Honest Neos]]" Fusion Monsters with specified names, "is an [[King of the SwampATK]]-booster for all "HERO" monsters, and "[[Elemental HERO WoodsmanSunrise|Sunrise]]" can be used to search/recycle copies of "is a [[PolymerizationFusion Monster]]with generic "HERO". It has also become common to play [[Xyz MonsterFusion Material]]s like that can search out "[[Number 39: UtopiaMiracle Fusion]]"," a powerful Fusion Spell Card that can use monsters in the [[Dark Rebellion Xyz DragonGY]]"as Fusion Materials,"allowing a Fusion Summon with zero card loss to the [[Steelswarm Roachfield]]advantage. "Wake Up Your Elemental HERO", requires an "Elemental HERO" Fusion Monster and any number of Warrior monsters (ie. the vast majority of the "[[Blade Armor Ninja]]HERO" archetype) which can be used to close out games with its high ATK and its attacking-oriented effects, or be destroyed to Special Summon another "HERO"[[Maestroke monster from the Symphony Djinn]]"Deck.

As with the release of the "Omni HEROs" (Most "Elemental Evil HERO Nova Master", Fusion Monsters also require specific "Elemental HERO Absolute Zero", "Elemental HERO Gaia", "Elemental HERO The Shining", "Elemental HERO Escurido" and "Elemental HERO Great Tornado"), monsters as well the as two "Vision HEROs" ("Vision HERO Adoration" and "Vision HERO Trinity")their Fusion Materials, all "Elemental HEROs" which can be fused together aided with each other, as well as other "HEROs". The "Omni HEROs" basically allow the aforementioned "Elemental HEROs" to exist in any deck focused on an archetype of monsters with the same Attribute, and each Attribute allows these Xtra HERO Infernal Devicer"Elemental HEROs" access to Attribute-specific support cards.

Recycling [[Fusion Material Monster]]s will allow you future use ====Classic====This Deck list focuses on the playstyle of fusion material. [["Elemental HERO Voltic]] " Fusion Monsters that require specific Fusion Materials featured prominently in the ''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX'' anime. While it is perfect for recyling [[Banished]] Elemental outclassed by the current power level of the game, this playstyle still received various modern pieces of support, namely "Xtra HERO Infernal Devicer" and greatly benefits from the "Vision HERO" engine involving "Vision HERO Faris", "Vision HERO monsters Increase" and is perfect for comboing off "Vision HERO Vyon". After searching "Polymerization" with "Vyon", both itself and "Increase" can be used to Link Summon "Xtra HERO Infernal Devicer" which help easily search the pair of [[Fusion Gate]] and [[Miracle Materials needed. Alternatively, one could use the searched "Polymerization" instead to Fusion]]. [[Summon more generic choices, more notably "Elemental HERO Sunrise" or "Elemental HERO Ocean]] and [[The Warrior Returning Alive]] will allow recycling Flame Wingman - Infernal Rage" which can search cards to Summon yet another "Elemental HERO monsters " Fusion Monster from the [[Graveyard]]Extra Deck.

The effect of "[[Kinetic Soldier]]" increases its ATK by 2000 when it battles with [[Warrior]]-Type monsters, and thus is a great choice as a counter to most of these decks, so heavy Trap support like the "[[Solemn]]" series, "[[Bottomless Trap Hole]]", "[[Dimensional Prison]]" are recommended so the "HEROs" will be able to survive in the early game. Since most "Elemental HERO" Decks heavily rely on Fusions to remain in the game long enough to bring "Elemental HERO Neos" and his fusions out, a good anti-spell Deck will eliminate the activation and use of "[[Polymerization]]" and Fusion Spells. Also a Deck with the ability to destroy Fusions, before and after summoning, will also make it easy to take down an "Elemental HERO" Deck. The trap card "[[Non-Fusion Area]]," for example, is nothing short of crippling to most "Elemental HERO Decks". "[[Cursed Seal of the Forbidden Spell]]" is another example because it negates the activation and the effect of a Spell Card (in this case a Fusion Spell Card) and destroys it and stops the player from using the Fusion Spell Card that he/she tried to use again. Another good choice to permanently cease Fusions Spells in a Duel is "[[Armageddon Designator]]". "[[De-Fusion]]" will stop [[Fusion Monster]]s because the Fusion Material is in the controller's Graveyard, and the other player is able to return the Fusion Monsters without summoning the Fusion Material Monsters, although "* [[Anti-Fusion Device]]" and "[[Steelswarm Sting]]" are good 1 for 1 second choices in simply destroying them. Since Fusion Summons are Special Summons, cards like "[[Royal Oppression]]", "[[Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo]]", "[[Archlord Kristya]]" and "[[Aurora Paragon]]" can interdict these Decks well—the latter two cards can also cut off use of additional support cards like "[[Elemental HERO Voltic]]", "[[A Hero Lives]]" and "[[Hero Signal]]". "Elemental HERO" Decks can be better chastened and repelled via cards like "[[King Tiger Wanghu]]", "[[Battle Protection of the Elements]]", "[[Gozen Match]]" "[[Warrior Elimination]]", "[[Ryu Kokki]]", "[[Pestilence]]" and even "[[4-Starred Ladybug of Doom]]" (many "Elemental HERO" non-Fusion Monsters are Level 4). These may be just as efficient as anti-Special Summoning/Fusion destroyers, if not worse because their use can be much less passive than say, waiting for Fusion "Elemental HERO" Decks to grace the [[Field]] and have a more profound effect against such Decks. Finally, "[[Skill Drain]]" and/or "[[Angel O7]]" can cease and desist "HERO" effects, which would be significant against these Decks because without substantial Spell/Trap support, many of the "HERO" monsters, including quite a number of "HERO" Fusion Monsters, do not possess significant sustainability stat-wise whilst on the [[field]]. A deck that can beat "Elemental HERO" decks is a "Blackwing" deck, due to their fast swarming and destructive techniques.}}
