Spellcaster Mania (2)

Previously…

             "Whoa, did you guys see that?" asked Jaden.

             "See what, Jay?" asked Syrus.

             "That magician," said Alexis.

             "Where?" asked Syrus. I don't see him.

             "Over there!" said Jaden pointing. *The gang race off and find him*

             "So glad you could stay for the magic act," said Endymion.

             "Check it out, it's some kind of fortress.

             "This is the citadel of Endymion," said Endymion.

             "The citadel of what?" asked Jaden. *The gang step inside*

             "Endymion," said Endymion. Now that you are here, why don't we get the show started?

             "Game on!" both said simultaneously.

             "Here's a bit of bonus action," said Jaden. I play Polymerization to discard Avian and Burstinatrix for Elemental Hero Flame Wingman (2100) in Attack Mode. Flame Wingman, take out that Crusader of Endymion!

             "I activate Magical Dimension, letting me tribute my Crusader for Endymion, the Master Magician (2700) in Attack Mode," said Endymion.

            "Not bad," said Jaden. I throw down another face down to end my turn. (1)

            "I play Defender, the Magical Knight (1600) in Attack Mode," said Endymion. Since it was summoned, it gets a Spell Counter and can only have one at a time. Endymion, destroy his Flame Wingman! *Flame Wingman is destroyed and Jaden's LPs drop to 7400* That ends my turn. (0)

           "I play Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600) in Attack Mode," said Jaden. Then I use Fusion Recovery to take back Burstinatrix and Polymerization. Next I use Poly again to send the Sparkman and Clayman I have out for Elemental Hero Thunder Giant (2400) in Attack Mode. With Thunder Giant's effect, I discard Necroshade destroy your Defender the Magical Knight!

           "I use Defender's effect," said Endymion. By removing a Spell Counter from anywhere on my field, I can prevent its destruction.

           "Thunder Giant, destroy his Defender the Magical Knight!" said Jaden. *Defender is destroyed and Endymion's LPs drop to 7200* That'll do. (1)

           "I remove all of my Spell Counters from Magical Citadel to resurrect Endymion the Master Magician!" said Endymion. *Endymion appears* Endymion, take out his Thunder Giant! *Thunder Giant is destroyed and Jaden's score drops to 7100*

           "I activate Hero Signal," said Jaden. Now I can Special Summon a Level 4 or less Elemental Hero and I pick Elemental Hero Bubbleman (1200) in Defense Mode.

           "I end my turn," said Endymion. (1)

           "I play Card Trooper (0400) in Attack Mode," said Jaden. I use its effect to send 3 cards from my deck to my Grave and when that happens, my Trooper gets 1500 extra ATK! *Card Trooper's ATK rises to 1900* I throw down a face down to end my turn.* Card Trooper's ATK returns to 400* (0)

           "I'll have no problem tearing apart that toy," said Endymion. I play Breaker the Magical Warrior (1600) in Attack Mode and he gets a Spell Counter and 300 ATK! *Breaker's ATK rises to 1900* Breaker, destroy Bubbleman!

           "I activate Mirror Force!" said Jaden. Now you lose all monsters you have in Attack Mode. *Endymion and Breaker are destroyed*

           "I set 1 card face down to end my turn," said Endymion. (0)

           "I play Skyscraper 2 - Hero City, which lets me bring back an Elemental Hero destroyed and sent to my Grave from battle," said Jaden. *Magical Citadel is destroyed* Then I use Card Trooper's effect to send another 3 cards to the Grave. *Card Trooper's ATK rises back to 1900* Now Card Trooper, attack directly!

           "I activate Magic Cylinder on Card Trooper, dealing you damage equal to Card Trooper's ATK!" said Endymion. *Jaden's score drops to 5200* You're no match for the might of my Spellcaster deck, it's all over!
