Assuming there's any anime you like that was dubbed by 4Kids what would it be? What would the worst be?

Best, probably the original YGO, mainly due to Dan Green.
Worst, definitely One Piece. Kinnikuman Nisei, or Ultimate Muscle as it was retitled, was another contender. At least most of the OP characters had names close to their original selves, rather than having them changed entirely. Toei did already nerf the series moreso than OP beforehand, so it's still 2nd place on this list.

I agree on One Piece. From the kiddie pirate music added to questionable VAs (I though I did like Zoro's 4Kids voice and I've seen comparison clips and I don't see a difference between Collen Clickenbeard and the 4Kids VA). Skipping arcs and HORRENDOUS edits"
- Sanji's cigarette is a lollipop and Sanji's voice....
- A gun was changed to.... I don't even know what it was.
- Blood has been cleaned up to simple scratches
Dragonball Kai in 4Kids hands was no better. While the acting is still good the problem is in the editing like One Piece
- Shenron was completely edited out the opening (badly I might add)
- Vegeta punching Goku in the Saiyan Saga intro
- 18 punching Vegeta in the Android Saga intro
- Just about every scene that had blood or exaggerated shots of people being punched in the face or stomach.
- Spirit Bomb is called Spirit Ball
- Halo is now a ball
- Mr. Popo is blue...
As for the best I agree on Yu-Gi-Oh being good. I don't like some of the VAs they got like Greg Abbey as Tristian, Mai's 2nd VA, Mokuba's 2nd VA, but Dan Green, Eric Stuart, Darren Dunstain, & Ted Lewis as Yugi/Yami Yugi, Kaiba, Pegasus, and Bakura/Yami Bakura were perfect.
I also thought Dubbed 5Ds was good to. While I hate the edits they made and replacing the Japanese's versions awesome OST, but I thought the VAs for the main cast were perfect. Greg Abbey is better off as Yusei, Ted Lewis is good for Jack Atlas, Bella Hudson is better off as Akiza rather than Mai. I didn't really like the Twins first VA & Crow's 2nd VA). While it's not as good as the Japanese Dub I thought Dubbed 5Ds was rather good for another 4Kids dubbed anime.
