Did you mix it up? He's considered high tier by everyone except Kaiba, but we as viewers know him for the charismatic shitter that he is.

Kaiba's a cunt.
Christopher Evans
His reliance on cards that require him to gamble on luck, like his dice cards and Time Wizard, could be seen as making up for his lack of actual skill and strategy.
Lucas Thomas
First off, the only one who explicitly considers him low-tier is Kaiba. Kaiba has very unique standards. To him, Duelists come in two categories:
>Supreme Top Class: Himself, Atem, Pegasus
>Worthless Shitters: Everyone else
Even then, after he nearly beat Malik, Kaiba started having a better opinion of him. At least, in the manga anyway. Also, remember that Kaiba thought of Yugi as a worthless scrub until the end of Dark Side of Dimensions, despite the fact that Yugi's the only one in the manga to ever beat Atem legitimately.
Joshua Scott
Do remember that he literally only just started playing the game when the Duelist Kingdom arc started. Also, he had a shit deck. That Time Wizard was literally the most powerful card that he had until he got his Red-Eyes.

>still considered a low-tier duelist duelist in-universe
Only by Seto Kaiba and other arrogant Duelists. The actual creator of the game ranked him 3rd-best Duelist.
Gabriel Phillips
does he count yugi and atem as two diferent people?
Lincoln Nguyen
Yugi literally only played the game when Duelist Kingdom came about, before that everyone was a filthy casual.
