This is a meme for Yu-Gi-Oh shippings and my preferences, done to express myself. Let me list them off. (Note I will have Abridged references)

Ships I hate:
Puzzleshipping: Of course we'd start with the one I consider the most overrated(As much as I hate the term). The main problem is that this ship appears everywhere, so I can't get away from it, which makes me like it less, to the point it got the green line. Really, my perception of the relationship between Yugi and Atem is a father-son relationship, as we have the Grandfather figure for Yugi, and in the manga at least, we have the mother figure, so Atem fills in the father role, as they learn from each other, such as Yugi learning courage, how to win at children's card games and that the only thing he knows for sure is that there's a man living in his head that tells him to do things. Atem learns tenderness and that mind crushing is not always the solution. I know real-life families in which this happened. (Also, the father-son mindset is shared with me by DAN GREEN!)

Puppyshipping
An unhappy name-calling relationship based on disrespect where one of them thinks of the other as worthless. Sound like a good, strong romance to you? Me neither. (Doesn't help that it's plastered over the fandom as well)

Revolutionshipping
I'm going to save my breath and let a journal from the Anti-Revolutionshipping group do the work: [link]

Ships I don't like:
Kaiba/Izhshe... Ishe... Izshizo... Isis!(I'll call her that for reasons you've seen)
Well really, there isn't much to it. The only positive interaction they've had that I can remember is Isis giving Kaiba the god card. Everything else between them was just, "You're a reincarnation of Atem's great prie..."
"I'm not listening to your fairytale! Unless it involves unicorns. I like unicorns."

Kirisa/Kaiba
Now, before you go nuts, let me explain something. Reincarnation is not a copy of Monster Reborn. The only real traits Kaiba and Priest Seto intentionally(Within the fictional realm) share is their soul, so Priest Seto and Kaiba are different characters, even with the same name. I am fine with Seto/Kirisa, but not with Kaiba/Kirisa, as Seto was in her time, but Kaiba wasn't.

Ships I don't mind:
Azureshipping
Eh, I don't feel they would go too well together, as Kaiba doesn't seem to even notice her existence, but opposites attract, so it could be possible. Of course, I haven't really been able to see some writing of it to make an informed decision on it.

Tea/Bakura
Well, I doubt there is much between our friendship speaker and the limey fruitcake. Tea didn't even include him when listing off her friends when talking about Shining Friendship. Thankfully, there isn't too much of it around, so I can tolerate.

Any result of the Serenity love triangle
I didn't really pay attention to the whole sub-plot myself, but really, I feel any way for them is good, as long as they can be happy with who they go with.

Ships I like:
Polarshipping
Well, they do go well together, and Mai does notice Joey first. Joey is also very willing to save her from Melvin, and actually would have if Melvin didn't send him into cardiac arrest. And the plot appears to leave a strong possibility for them to be together.

Mana/Atem
Mana does really like him and has a very deep bond with him. Not to mention I think Atem would be better off with another immortal soul than the guy who shares his body, or the girl he saved from an escaped convict.

Mana/Yugi
Mana could easily see a lot of Atem in Yugi and like him for it, and due to the amount of Atem, Yugi could easily like her, not to mention that she's very playful, as is Yugi. And, as a bonus, it would be so cute to see Mana with a baby panda.

Tea/Serenity
Tea is quite supportive, and Serenity would need some support after her blindness is cured, and may need some if Duke and Tristan got together when she really wanted one of them. And Tea is a perfect person to go to for support, even with all her friendship speeches, but Serenity may possibly enjoy a friendship speech after hearing nothing but medical jargon and worrying of her condition for a few months.

Mai/Serenity
Mai, like Tea, is quite supportive, and has actually supported Serenity on-screen by driving her towards her wish, and doesn't make a whole bunch of friendship speeches, which would be helpful if it turned out Serenity didn't like them, and later on when Serenity has heard more positive things around.

Ships I love:
Peachshipping
Yugi clearly does like Tea, and of course, Tea does like him, and probably likes him more later in the series as he gains courage and confidence from Atem. As the series reaches it's conclusion, Tea basically makes it clear she'd prefer to talk to Yugi than Atem. Not to mention that the ship is so sweet.

Thiefshipping
They have the greatest partners in crime relationship ever, especially in The Abridged Series. Not to mention all their bickering like an old married couple throughout Marik's LP of Bloodlines.

Tendershipping
There's just something about it. I guess part of the reason is that I wouldn't put it past Florence to get into a romance with Bakura, after all, if they trusted each other, then Florence would probably get even easier control over Bakura's body, which would be exactly what he wants. Also, I just really love the image of Florence having to be tender with Bakura, but I'm not too sure why I love the image.

Crystalshipping
Tea has shown a like for Dark Magician Girl, who is practically half of Mana's soul. Also, Mana loves having friends, as does Tea, so they could spark up a good friendship to build their romance on quickly(Not that I'm saying friendship must develop into romance). And I think Mana's magic abilities could entertain Tea as well.

Danceshipping
This is definitely one of those couples that would take a lot of time to work out, but if it did, it would be a very strong relationship. Mai and Tea are both strong women, and one does need to mention that Tea did help Mai gain some of that strength. At Duelist Kingdom, it was really Tea's friendship speeches that got Mai out of the cynical life she was in, and allowed her to see the good things in life, which is something I think they could use to base their relationship on, and if things work out, it could be a very happy memory for the two to recall as they continue to get older, and something they could pass on to any hypothetical adopted grandchildren. (Also, try to imagine the two of them dancing together like in the name. For those into yuri, isn't that such a nice image?)

Blue circles, and who it is(Mainly crack ships down here):
Kirisa, along with Priest Seto.

Kaiba, screwing the rules, as well as his Blue-Eyes.

Duke, with anything that moves.

Isis, in her happy relationship with the giant rock.

Single:
Melvin, as he's only been around twice, and both times, it was to kill, after which he was erased from existence. Nobody to really pair him with, not that I'd want to.
