"'''Masked HERO'''" ({{Ruby|Ｍ・ＨＥＲＯ|マスクドヒーロー}} ''Masukudo Hīrō'' in Japan, written as {{Ruby|Ｍ|マスクド}}・{{Ruby|ＨＥＲＯ|ヒーロー}} or {{Ruby|Ｍ|マスクド}}・{{Ruby|Ｈ|ヒーロー}} in the Japanese manga) is a "[[HERO]]" sub-[[archetype]] used by [[Jaden Yuki (manga)|Jaden Yuki]] in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (manga)|''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX'' manga]]. Jaden started using this archetype after the tournament to [[Duel]] the [[Zane Truesdale (manga)|Kaiser]], when he decided to build an "all-his Deck", which would eventually grow into his ultimate Deck (since the "[[Elemental HERO]]" monsters he used previously were from [[Koyo Hibiki]]'s Deck). | "'''Masked HERO'''" ({{Ruby|Ｍ・ＨＥＲＯ|マスクドヒーロー}} ''Masukudo Hīrō'' in Japan, written as {{Ruby|Ｍ|マスクド}}・{{Ruby|ＨＥＲＯ|ヒーロー}} or {{Ruby|Ｍ|マスクド}}・{{Ruby|Ｈ|ヒーロー}} in the Japanese manga) is a "[[HERO]]" sub-[[archetype]] used by [[Jaden Yuki (manga)|Jaden Yuki]] in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh!

In addition to "Kamen" meaning "Masked", there are several similarities between the two, such the recurring "form changing" and transformations of Kamen Riders. The Double Attacks are also similar to the original Kamen Riders' (1 and 2) "Rider Double" techniques. |

| − | + | Rather than [[Fusion Summon]]ing like most [[Fusion Monster]]s do, "Masked HERO" monsters use cards like "[[Mask Change]]" to be [[Special Summon]]ed from the [[Extra Deck]]. In the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (manga)|manga]], [[Chazz Princeton (manga)|Chazz Princeton]] was amazed seeing how "Masked HERO" monsters could use the same effect of "Fusion" using one single [[Fusion Material|material]] rather than 2 or more. | |
| − | + | This archetype favors a fairly straight-forward [[beatdown]] strategy. Their "transforming" cards being [[Quick-Play Spell Card]]s allows them to be transformed at any time, including during the [[Battle Phase]], for multiple [[attack]]s, or in response to an opponent's [[Card effect|effect]] or attack. | |
| − | + | While "Masked HERO" is an independent archetype in the manga, in the ''[[TCG]]''/''[[OCG]]'' they were revamped to be a general "[[HERO]]" support, making them [[splashable]] options for any "HERO" Deck (though they essentially work well only with "Elemental HERO" monsters, due to their varied [[Attribute]]s). "[[Mask Change II]]" takes this even further by allowing "Masked HERO" monsters to be splashable in any Deck, as long as one can handle the increased [[cost]] and Extra Deck real estate. | |
| − | "[[ | + | An efficient build can consist of running a few "Elemental HERO" monsters that help you conduct Fusion Summons (Like "[[Elemental HERO Blazeman]]" and "[[Elemental Hero Woodsman]]") to Fusion Summon "[[Elemental HERO Absolute Zero]]" ("[[King of the Swamp]]" help this even further) which has 2 advantages: it can be Fusion Summoned using even "Masked Hero" monsters, and when combined with "Mask Change" or "Form Change", lets you get a WATER or high [[Level]]ed "Masked HERO" while destroying your opponents' monsters. |
