In literature there is a term known has a Foil.
A Foil is a character who contrast with another
A Fine example being: woody and buzzlightyear
Woody is a cynical, snarky cowboy who accepts things the way they are and knows what he is and what his purpose is in life he is a realist
Buzz is a naive, charismatic space ranger who can't accept reality when first introduced he isn't ready to accept the fact he's a toy he fully believes he's actually buzz lightyear if Woody is a realist, Buzx would be a dreamer.
Now what does this have to do with one piece and the title of the video?
Well I believe the Original 4 yonko are almost the perfect foils to the first 4 east blue strawhats
Sanji:Kaido Sanji and Kaido are Foils of each other in the way that Sanjj truly cares for his comrades, he has his code and he sticks to it, he'll never let anyone go hungry be they friend or foe. Meanwhile Kaido is cruel and vicious failure can mean punishment or death he willingly took over and starved and entire country of its food and resources just to fund his crew and agenda. Hell Sanji's father knew Kaido's second commander on a personal level. No other character in wano arc had a direct connection to a member of Kaido's crew
Usopp- Whitebeard: Usopp and Whitebeard are foils of each other in the way that Usopp is known has being cowardly but what one may call cowardly another can call knowing hid limits, Usopp isn't afraid of being know has the one who ran away, he doesn't care if his reputation is on the line he puts survival above all else, he is known has the weakest but with his mindset he'll out live even the strongest of characters. Meanwhile Whitebeard is strong, fearless and will never back down from a fight. Has the youngsters say these days he died "Standing on Business" Whitebeard is what Usopp wishes he could be a strong, brave and loved warrior of the sea
Nami: Big Mom: Nami was adopted by Bellemere raised in a small house with a small family, until she was forced to become a pirate to survive after the death of her mother, Nami loves her family and is loved by her family, Nami also has strong motherly instincts and is always protective of child characters, and while she isn't the most durable or most powerful one can say she more than makes up for it with her battle IQ, on the flip side Big Mom or Linlin was abandoned has a pup and found by Caramel Big mom's unlike Nami didn't grow up with a loving family she grew up thinking Caramel was an Angel when in fact she was the Devil with torn wings, big mom murdered her own family and became a pirate out of necessity not out-of survival, despite having nearly a hundred children Big Mom has no motherly instincts at all. And despite being so powerful, she has almost zero battle iq like imagine how strong Big Mom could of been if given Nami's battle IQ
Zoro:Shanks: Zoro from a young age always knew his dream was to become the world's strongest swordsman, it wasnt until after meeting luffy that he was willing to throw that dream away if it meant helping Luffy achieve his. Zoro is known for always getting lost and is the right hand to the pirate king, meanwhile Shanks is known around the world for his duels with Mihawk but doesn't seem at all interested in the title for world's strongest swordsman, he served with the previous pirate king except has a cabin boy and was found by Roger in the beginnings of his life, Zoro was found by Luffy waiting for his death. And unlike Zoro who has a terrible sense of direction, Shanks always seems to show up right when he needs to. Luffy Flash back- showed up right when The mountain bandit had Luffy ready to kill him, Marineford showed up outta nowhere to block Akainu how no one noticed a giant ship of a yonko approaching idk, but he also managed to be in the waters of wano when green bull arrived and happened to be on Elbaf at the exact moment kid pulled up.
Well that about sums it up I believe the Original 4 yonko are Foils to the original 4 east blue strawhats
I think when we get more info on Rocks he will be the Foil to Luffy
