Destiny Heroes Facts
The Destiny Hero series are a set of DARK Attribute Warrior-Type monsters and support cards introduced by Aster Phoenix in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX and in Enemy of Justice, with further support in Duelist Pack 5: Aster Phoenix and also in Phantom Darkness. Since their debut, they have been believed to be an anti-thesis to the Elemental Heroes as specific cards somewhat resemble Elemental Heroes.
The main focus of Destiny Heroes revolves around taking defensive action and stalling while increasing the user's card advantage and field presence. This is necessary to set up the summoning of Destiny Hero - Dogma and Destiny Hero - Plasma, both extremely powerful monsters that require three Tributes to be Special Summoned from the Hand. The majority of all other Destiny Heroes have low ATK and are poor offensively, but often have great utility for maintaining field presence and forms of card advantage over the opponent. For example, the first Hero monster to be Forbidden, Destiny Hero - Disk Commander, has very weak ATK and DEF but lets its controller draw two cards when it is Special Summoned from the Graveyard, and Destiny Hero - Defender has such an enormously high DEF that most monsters cannot destroy it by battle.
These cards may resemble British anti-heroes and there are several references to British culture within the cards. There is an emphasis in the passage of time in most Destiny Hero card effects, as opposed to the more immediate effects of Elemental Heroes.
