It's honestly funny re-reading the Monster World arc beyond the fact it was a preview of the Millennium World arc later in the story. You get the impression that the spirit of the Ring is in fact a very terrible game master and gamer in general since he's only got the advantage over Yugi's party due to their lack of knowledge, lack of ability to grind due to the constant threat on their lives, and his constant attempts to cheat. Not to mention that if you go by the actual Monster World rules provided at the end of the first couple chapters, dude intentionally gimped all their characters just to make his job easier...and he still lost.
