10 Best Normal Monsters In Yu-Gi-Oh

10. Gemini Elf

Gemini Elf set the standard for what a level four normal monster should do. The first monster to have 1900 attack with zero downsides was huge.

Prior to its printing in 2003's Labyrinth of Nightmare, the benchmark for attack was set at 1800 by staples such as 7 Coloured Fish and La Jin, the Mystical Geanie of the Lamp.

Card advantage was huge back in the early days of Yu-Gi-Oh! and to simply have your 1800 attack position monster get run over was an instant minus one.

Gemini Elf sold for around £50 when it was first released, as it was simply the most efficient normal monster out there. The fact that it was a spellcaster, a very prominent type didn't hurt either.

Eventually, other monsters got the '1900 attack' treatment such as Magicians Force Luster Dragon and by the 2006 era a normal monsters attack stop being the major selling point.
