Chazz Princeton's Decks

Chazz Princeton's Deck changes gradually throughout the seasons of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime. His ever-changing Deck is a parallel to his ever-changing philosophy on Dueling and his place in the world.

Seven StarsEdit

Chazz's Deck goes through a large amount of changes in this season alone, as he rarely uses the same Deck for more than one Duel.

ChthonianEdit

Record
Opponent(s) Episode(s) Outcome(s)
Jaden Yuki 2 No result
Bastion Misawa 12 Lose

Chazz originally played a "Chthonian" Deck.

VWXYZEdit

Record
Opponent(s) Episode(s) Outcome(s)
Jaden Yuki 4 Lose

Chazz is given rare "VWXYZ" cards by Vellian Crowler that he uses against Jaden for the duration of one episode. Though the Deck itself is only used once, all of the cards in it are shown again when Chazz starts combining separate Deck concepts in Seasons 2 and 3.

North AcademyEdit

Record
Opponent(s) Episode(s) Outcome(s)
45 students 24 Win
4 students 24 Win
Czar 24 Win

After all of his "Chthonian" cards were destroyed while stranded, he enters North Academy with a Deck made up of cards he had found on the grounds around the school, focusing on a One Turn Kill strategy. He defeated all fifty students at the Academy and became its new top Duelist.

Armed DragonEdit

Record
Opponent(s) Episode(s) Outcome(s)
Jaden Yuki 25-26 Lose

After becoming the top-ranked student at North Academy by defeating all fifty other students, including their top-ranked student Czar, Chazz is gifted with the "Armed Dragon" Deck by North Academy's Chancellor Foster to use against Jaden Yuki in the "School Duel", an annual match between a nominated member of the student bodies of North Academy and Duel Academy.

Chancellor Foster forgets to take the "Armed Dragon" Deck back after Chazz opts to remain at Duel Academy (in the dub this line is changed to him bemoaning the fact that he didn't get a kiss from Ms. Dorothy). Despite this, Chazz keeps the cards and the issue is never brought up again.

It is around this time in the original version that he debuts his nickname "Manjoume Thunder." The name is a pun in Japanese, but was considered untranslatable. The chant is simply changed to "Chazz it Up" in the dub.

0-ATKEdit

Record
Opponent(s) Episode(s) Outcome(s)
Slade Princeton 35 Win

While Dueling against his brother Slade Princeton with the fate of Duel Academy on the line, Chazz is held down by a stipulation stating that he may only use monsters with less than 500 ATK. He journeys to a well deep in the forest and retrieves a myriad variety of cards thrown there by other students over the years who believed the cards too weak to ever be used.

Chazz constructs a 0 ATK Deck and develops several strategies that ultimately result in his victory.

Ojama/Armed DragonEdit

Record
Opponent(s) Episode(s) Outcome(s)
Don Zaloog 39 Win
Amnael 44 Lose

During his Duel against Don Zaloog, Chazz combines elements of his "Armed Dragon" Deck with "Ojama" monsters and debuts new support cards for both themes to create an "Ojama"/"Armed Dragon" Deck.

LoveEdit

Record

Alexis Rhodes 47 Lose

Chazz goes to Atticus Rhodes, the brother of Alexis Rhodes to get his help in winning Alexis' affections. Atticus lends Chazz "love cards" which is put in a Deck with his Ojama monsters to create a Love Deck. Despite his efforts, he is defeated.

MiscEdit

Chazz gathered many cards from Reject Well to build a Deck for a Duel against his brother Slade. He used monsters with 0 ATK, while the remaining monster cards were kept in his safe. When the "Dark Scorpions" were defeated and returned to their card form, Chazz added them to the cards from the well for safety's sake.

Society of LightEdit

Chazz's Deck remains consistent for most of this season, though he does use a vastly different Deck at one point.

Armed Dragon/Ojama/Machine UnionEdit

In the Society of Light arc, Chazz uses a mixed Deck of '"Ojama"/"Armed Dragon"/"VWXYZ". During his time in the Society of Light, Chazz acquires the Beetron Union monsters. He ceases using this Deck late in his service to the Society and begins to use it again after being freed from Sartorius' influence by Jaden Yuki. Some of the cards from his "Chthonian" Deck were featured in the opening theme and also discarded via card effects.

"Infernal White" and "White Veil" were given to Chazz by Sartorius and in his mind represented this servitude to the Society, so he ceased using them after his exodus from the group. He also begins calling himself "Manjoume White Thunder" in the Japanese version, signifying his devotion to Sartorius.

White KnightEdit

Record
Opponent(s) Episode(s) Outcome(s)
Gelgo 87 Win
Jaden Yuki 87-88 Lose

During the height of Chazz's time in the Society of Light, he is given a new Deck by Sartorius, focusing on a beatdown strategy with a "White Knight" theme.

He defeats professional Duelist Gelgo during the Genex Tournament using this Deck. He later Duels Jaden Yuki, who uses Chazz's Ojama cards to break Sartorius' mind control. Using the card "Cemetery Change", Chazz reclaims his Ojama monsters and also removes his white coat (calling himself "Manjoume Black Thunder" in the Japanese version). Despite this, he loses the Duel.
