Yu-Gi-Oh satire banned?

A Yu-Gi-Oh parody was recently deleted, Is this a case of Copyright Violations V's our legal right to "fair use" for producing parody?

Was youtube wrong to bow to the will of the Yu-Gi-Oh copyright holder in this case?

Did it stomp all over the users legally defensible right to use this Yu-Gi-Oh material under "fair use" laws for the purpose of satire?

Will they get away with it simply because folk like us can't afford the legal fees to fight this crap?
