"'''Masked HERO'''" ({{Ruby|Ｍ・ＨＥＲＯ|マスクドヒーロー}} ''Masukudo Hīrō'') is a "[[HERO]]" sub-[[archetype]] mostly consisting of [[Monster Card|monsters]] used by [[Jaden Yuki (manga)|Jaden Yuki]] in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (manga)|''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX'' manga]]. Jaden started using these "HEROes" 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]]es" he used previously were [[Koyo Hibiki]]'s Deck).

They The "Masked HEROes" are currently the only [[Monster Card|monsters shown ]] to be able to perform [[Transformation Summon]]s and [[Double Attack (mechanic)|Double Attacks]].

Rather than ==Design==While the "[[Fusion SummonElemental HERO]]ing like most " archetype is said to be based off of American superheroes, it can also be assumed that the "Masked HERO" archetype is a salute to Japanese [[Fusion Monsterwikipedia:Kamen Rider|Kamen Rider]]s doheroes. In addition to "Kamen" meaning "Masked", there are several similarities between the two, they use cards like such the recurring "[[Mask Change]]form changing" and transformations of Kamen Riders. The Double Attacks are also similar to [[Special Summon]] themselves from the [[Extra Deck]]original Kamen Riders' (1 and 2) "Rider Double" techniques.

So far, the archetype consists of five ==Playing Style==Rather than [[Normal MonsterFusion Summon]]s and seven ing like most [[Transformation Fusion Monster]]s. It favors a fairly straight-forward [[Beatdown]] strategydo, with "Masked HEROes" use cards like "[[Masked HERO Goka|GokaMask Change]]" gaining 100 to [[ATKSpecial Summon]] for every "HERO" in themselves from the Graveyard,"[[Masked HERO Acid|AcidExtra Deck]]" destroying all spells and traps .
