Compare_Viper: Yami Marik vs Yami Bakura

[Blade_Viper]

Hey, It's Blade again for another Compare_Viper. this time I'm looking at two villains of the duel monsters series of Yu-Gi-Oh. (Yami) Marik Ishtar and (Yami) Bakura Ryou.

let's start off with their goals in this anime and who is more successful.
Yami Bakura's goal in the anime is to gain a power that can stand up to the Egyptian Gods while Yami Marik's goal is to basically take revenge on the pharaoh. Bakura was waaaayyy more successful than Marik. Bakura almost destroyed the world while Marik couldn't beat yugi in a duel (to be fair neither could Bakura but we'll get to it later)

Decks: (I'm going off of Bakura's last deck)
Marik: Marik had a Immortal Torture deck. which was just a stall burn deck but with more fiends.
Bakura: Bakura in the last arc basically used a mill deck. forcing yugi to mill what seemed like a dozen cards a turn which was quite deadly.

Duels: this has to go to Marik. in the Battle City Finals arc Yami Marik only lost one duel (two if you count the four way duel) and had wins over Mai, Bakura and Joey.
Bakura lost the majority of his duels (the only one I remember him winning was the one against Bonz) with losses against Marik and the two yugis.

so. tell me what you think of them and who in your opinion is the better character. peace.
