Storming the Field (2)

Previously…

            “I tribute my 3 tokens for Cloudian - Nimbusman (1000) in Attack Mode,” said Adrian.

            “You wasted three tributes for that?” asked Kaiba. Guess you want to lose.

            “Actually, I was planning on winning and thanks to Nimbusman’s effect, for each monster I tributed to play him, he gets a Fog Counter and for each Fog Counter on the field, he gets 500 more ATK! Nimbusman’s ATK rises to 2500. Nimbusman, destroy his Kaiser Glider! Kaiser Glider is destroyed and Kaiba’s LPs drop to 7100. That ends my turn. (0)

            “Your Nimbusman won’t defeat my Blue-Eyes,” said Kaiba. Blue-Eyes, attack Nimbusman! Nimbusman is not destroyed but Adrian’s LPs drop to 2750. That ends my turn. (0)

            “Alright, my move,” said Adrian. I summon Cloudian - Ghost Fog (0000) in Defense Mode and end my turn. (0)

            “I summon Kaiser Sea Horse (1700) in Attack Mode,” said Kaiba. Sea Horse, destroy his Ghost Fog! Ghost Fog is destroyed.

            “Thanks for destroying my Ghost Fog because by doing so, it puts Fog Counters on your monsters equal to your Sea Horse’s level, which is 4 and since there are 4 more Fog Counters, Nimbusman gets an additional 2000 ATK! Nimbusman’s ATK rises to 4500.

            “I switch Blue-Eyes to Defense Mode and end my turn,” said Kaiba. (0)

            “Nimbusman, destroy his Sea Horse!” said Adrian. Sea Horse is destroyed and Kaiba’s LPs drop to 5800. Nimbusman’s ATK drops to 3500. Next I activate one of my face down cards, Natural Disaster! With Natural Disaster, you take 500 damage every time a Cloudian monster’s effect destroys at least 1 card you control! That ends my turn. (1)

            “I set 1 card face down and end my turn,” said Kaiba. (0)

            “I activate Summon Cloud,” said Adrian. If I don’t control any monsters during my Main Phase, I can play a Cloudian Monster from my hand or Graveyard but if I summon one from my Grave, my Summon Cloud is destroyed. Nimbusman, destroy Blue-Eyes!

            “I activate Enemy Controller, which switches your monster to Defense Mode,” said Kaiba. Nimbusman switches to Defense Mode and is destroyed. What happened to your monster?

            “If a Cloudian monster is changed to Defense Position it is destroyed,” said Adrian. However, not all of my Cloudians have that ability. I end my turn. (0)

            “First I switch my Blue-Eyes to Attack Mode,” said Kaiba. Then I summon Pitch-Dark Dragon (1600) in Attack Mode. Blue-Eyes, attack his Eye of the Typhoon! Eye of the Typhoon is not destroyed but Adrian’s LPs drop to 2050. That ends my turn. (0)

            “First I Special Summon Cloudian Sheep Cloud from my Grave in Defense Mode thanks to Summon Cloud,” said Adrian. Sheep Cloud appears and Summon Cloud is destroyed. Then, I reveal my Trap Card Rain Storm, which by dropping 2000 ATK from my Eye of the Typhoon, I can destroy 2 cards you control and I choose your 2 monsters! Typhoon’s ATK drops to 300 and Pitch-Dark Dragon as well as Blue-Eyes are destroyed. That ends my turn. (1)

            “Time to finish you off!” said Kaiba. I summon X-Head Cannon (1800) in Attack Mode. Cannon, attack Eye of the Typhoon! Typhoon is not destroyed and Adrian’s LPs drop to 550. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I tribute my Eye of the Typhoon and my Sheep Cloud for another Eye of the Typhoon in Attack Mode,” said Adrian. Shadow Spell is destroyed. Eye of the Typhoon, destroy X-Head Cannon!

            “Game over for I activate Ring of Destruction!” said Kaiba. It lets me destroy your Eye of the Typhoon and deals both of us 3000 damage! Eye of the Typhoon is destroyed and Adrian’s LPs drop to 0 while Kaiba’s LPs drop to 2800. His Bio-Band activates and he collapses. Elsewhere…

            “Alright, where are you hiding!” said Chazz. Come out so you can get chazzed! Dartz appears.

            “So you wish to duel me, do you?” asked Dartz.

            “You better believe it!” said Chazz.

            “Very well, let’s duel!” said Dartz.

            “I’ll start,” said Chazz. I summon Y- Dragon Head (1500) in Attack Mode. Then I use Enchanting Fitting Room! For 800 points, I pick up 4 cards and summon any Normal Monsters below level 4!

Storming the Field (1)

Previously…

            “Who’s that?” asked Mokuba. Kaiba turns to see someone.

            “Who are you?” said Kaiba.

            “Adrian Geko,” said Adrian.

            “You’re in my way!” said Kaiba.

            “Maybe so but I came to duel you and I forecast a 99% chance of defeat!” said Adrian.

            “Fine, let’s duel!” said Kaiba.

            “I summon Cloudian - Poison Cloud (1000) in Defense Mode,” said Adrian. Then I play Big Summon Cloud, which at a cost of half my points lets me summon Cloudian - Eye of the Typhoon (3000) in Attack Mode. His LPs drop to 4000. The only downside is that to keep my Spell Card out, I have to discard my hand at my Standby Phase. I set 2 cards face down and end my turn. (1)

            “I discard my Thunder Dragon to add two more Thunder Dragon cards to my hand,” said Kaiba. Then I use Polymerization, discarding them for Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon (2800) in Attack Mode. Thunder Dragon, destroy his Poison Cloud! Poison Cloud is destroyed and Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon is then destroyed while Kaiba’s LPs drop to 7200. What happened to my LPs and my monster?

            “My Poison Cloud’s effect simply destroyed your Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon since it was responsible for destroying my monster in battle and since he was destroyed in battle, you take 800 damage,” said Adrian.

            “I set 2 cards face down and end my turn,” said Kaiba. (2)

            “Eye of the Typhoon, attack him directly!” said Adrian.

            “Not so fast, I activate Shadow Spell!” said Kaiba. Your Cloudian monster loses 700 ATK and cannot switch modes. Typhoon’s ATK drops to 2300.

            “I end my turn,” said Adrian. (0)

            “I draw,” said Kaiba. I summon Vorse Raider (1900) in Attack Mode. Then I use Shrink, which halves the ATK of your monster this turn! Typhoon’s ATK drops to 1150. Vorse Raider, remove his cloud from the atmosphere! Eye of the Typhoon is not destroyed but Adrian’s LPs drop to 3250. Why wasn’t your monster destroyed?

            “It’s pretty simple,” said Adrian. Like the actual clouds in the sky, you can’t destroy them with brute force.   

            “I end my turn,” said Kaiba. Typhoon’s ATK returns to 2300. (1)

            “Back to me,” said Adrian. I summon Cloudian - Sheep Cloud (0000) in Defense Mode and end my turn. (0)

            “How pathetic,” said Kaiba. I activate White Dragon Ritual, tributing my Vorse Raider for Paladin of White Dragon (1900) in Attack Mode. Paladin, destroy his Sheep Cloud! Sheep Cloud is destroyed and two Sheep Cloud Tokens (0000 x2) appear.

            “When my Sheep Cloud is destroyed in battle, it summons two Sheep Cloud Tokens,” said Adrian.

            “Whatever, I use my Paladin’s effect, which lets me tribute it for Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3000) in Attack Mode,” said Kaiba. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I summon another Sheep Cloud in Defense Mode and end my turn,” said Adrian. (0)

            “I activate Pot of Greed, so I get 2 cards,” said Kaiba. Next I activate Silent Doom, letting me summon Vorse Raider in Defense Mode. Vorse Raider appears. Then I tribute Vorse Raider for Kaiser Glider (2400) in Attack Mode. Glider, destroy his Sheep Cloud! Sheep Cloud is destroyed and two Sheep Cloud Tokens appear. Blue-Eyes, destroy a token! The token is destroyed. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I tribute my 3 tokens for Cloudian - Nimbusman (1000) in Attack Mode,” said Adrian.

            “You wasted three tributes for that?” asked Kaiba. Guess you want to lose.

            “Actually, I was planning on winning and thanks to Nimbusman’s effect, for each monster I tributed to play him, he gets a Fog Counter and for each Fog Counter on the field, he gets 500 more ATK! Nimbusman’s ATK rises to 2500. Nimbusman, destroy his Kaiser Glider! Kaiser Glider is destroyed and Kaiba’s LPs drop to 7100. That ends my turn. (0)

            “Your Nimbusman won’t defeat my Blue-Eyes,” said Kaiba. Blue-Eyes, destroy Nimbusman!

Volcanic Eruption (3)

Previously…

            “I summon another Volcanic Slicer in Attack Mode,” said Axel. Slicer, destroy his Time Wizard! Time Wizard is destroyed and Joey’s LPs drop to 400. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I play Monster Reborn to revive your Doomfire!” said Joey. Doomfire reappears. Doomfire, destroy his Slicer! Slicer is destroyed and Axel’s LPs drop to 3100. Since your monster was destroyed, you take 500 damage! Axel’s LPs drop to 2600. That ends my turn. (0)

            “My move and I pay for Firewall!” said Axel. His LPs drop to 2100. Then I summon Volcanic Blaster (0600) in Defense Mode and end my turn. (0)

            “My move,” said Joey. I summon Gearfried the Iron Knight (1800) in Attack Mode. Doomfire, destroy his Blaster! Blaster is destroyed and Axel’s LPs drop to 1600.

            “When Blaster’s destroyed, I can place another Volcanic Blaster on the top of my deck,” said Axel. You’ll never defeat me in the ring of fire!

            “Gearfried, direct attack!” said Joey.

            “I remove Volcanic Blaster for Firewall!” said Axel.

            “I end my turn,” said Joey. (0)

            “I again pay for Firewall,” said Axel. His LPs drop to 1100. Next I summon another Volcanic Blaster in Defense Mode and end my turn. (0)

            “Time to win this duel!” said Joey. I activate Roll of Fate I roll a die and get to draw cards equal to the die’s result but I also have to remove an equal number of cards from my deck from play. The die lands. A 4, so I get 4 cards and I remove 4 cards in my deck from play. Next, I activate Release Restraint, which sends my Gearfried to my Graveyard for Gearfried the Swordmaster (2600) in Attack Mode.

            “Big deal, for I have Firewall, which will stop all of your attacks,” said Axel.

            “You think so, eh?” asked Joey. I activate Legendary Sword, raising my Swordmaster’s ATK and DEF by 300! Swordmaster’s stats rise to (2900/2500). Then, thanks to my Swordmaster’s effect, I can destroy 1 of your monsters! Volcanic Blaster is destroyed. Oh and your Firewall can only stop my attacks if you have enough Pyro-Type monsters in your Graveyard to remove and if you have the LPs to keep it out.

            “I’m not worried because the Volcanic Scattershots I sent to my Grave with Tri-Blaze Accelerator are still in my Graveyard, which is more than enough to stop your attacks,” said Axel.

            “Not when I play this card,” said Joey. I tribute Gearfried for Jinzo (2400) in Attack Mode.

            “Oh no, now my Firewall is negated!” said Axel.

            “That’s right and with only 1100 points left, I win after this attack,” said Joey. Jinzo, wipe out the rest of his LPs! Axel’s LPs drop to 0. Meanwhile…

            “Your forecast is looking grim, Kaiba,” said Adrian. He races off. Elsewhere…

            “What are we going to do, Seto?” asked Mokuba.

            “Defeat Dartz’s little goon squad,” said Kaiba.

            “How?” asked Mokuba.

            “I have no idea, Mokuba,” said Kaiba.

            “Who’s that?” asked Mokuba. Kaiba turns to see someone.

            “Who are you?” said Kaiba.

            “Adrian Geko,” said Adrian.

            “You’re in my way!” said Kaiba.

            “Maybe so but I came to duel you and I forecast a 99% chance of defeat!” said Adrian.

            “Fine, let’s duel!” said Kaiba.

            “I summon Cloudian - Poison Cloud (1000) in Defense Mode,” said Adrian. Then I play Big Summon Cloud, which at a cost of half my points lets me summon Cloudian - Eye of the Typhoon (3000) in Attack Mode. His LPs drop to 4000. The only downside is that to keep my Spell Card out, I have to discard my and. I set 2 cards face down and end my turn. (1)

            “I discard my Thunder Dragon to add two more Thunder Dragon cards to my hand,” said Kaiba. Then I use Polymerization, discarding them for Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon (2800) in Attack Mode. Thunder Dragon, destroy his Poison Cloud!

Volcanic Eruption (2)

Previously…

            “I play Monster Reborn to revive my Panther Warrior in Attack Mode,” said Joey. Panther Warrior reappears. Next I tribute it for Maximum Six (1900) in Attack Mode.

            “That monster’s far too weak to come even close to defeating my Doomfire,” said Axel.

            “Maybe but when he's summoned, his ability activates, forcin’ me to roll a die and he gains ATK equal to the die result times 200! The die lands. A six, so my monster gets 1200 more ATK! Maximum Six’s ATK rises to 3100. Maximum Six, destroy his Doomfire! Doomfire is destroyed and Axel’s LPs drop to 6800. I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (0)

            “I pay for Firewall!” said Axel. His LPs drop to 5300. Then I play Fire Recovery! By discarding my Volcanic Shell, I can revive Volcanic Doomfire from my Grave in Attack Mode! Doomfire reappears. Doomfire, destroy his Marauding Captain! Marauding Captain is destroyed and Joey’s LPs drop to 3700. Maximum Six is then destroyed and Joey’s LPs drop to 2700. That ends my turn. (0)

            “My move,” said Joey. This better be a good card or I’ve got nothin’ to protect myself! I play Pot of Greed, giving me 2 cards. Then I activate Scapegoat, giving me 4 Goat Tokens (0000 x4) in Defense Mode. Next, I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (0)

            “First I pay for Firewall,” said Axel. His LPs drop to 4800. Then I summon Fire Trooper (1000) in Attack Mode. Fire Trooper disappears and Joey’s LPs drop to 1700.

            “What happened?” asked Joey. Why did I just take 1000 damage and your monster disappear?

            “When Fire Trooper’s summoned, you take 1000 damage and then it goes to my Graveyard,” said Axel. Doomfire, destroy a Goat Token!

            “I activate Compensation Mediation!” said Joey. Now you select 2 cards from your Graveyard and set them with this card face down. Then I have to pick one of the three and if I guess my Trap Card, your Battle Phase ends. Axel shuffles the cards and sets them. The far right! The card flips up. Yes, it’s my card! As a bonus, the cards you chose go on the top of your deck.

            “Lucky break,” said Axel. I end my turn. (0)

            “Alright, here goes!” said Joey. I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (0)

            “You’re goin’ down!” said Axel. I pay for Firewall! His LPs drop to 4300. Doomfire, destroy one of the tokens!

            “I activate Silver Dollar!” said Joey. Thanks to this card, my token can’t be destroyed in battle and any damage I would’ve taken becomes 0.

            “I end my turn,” said Axel. (1)

            “Alright, look out!” said Joey. I summon Time Wizard (0500) in Attack Mode.

            “A mere 500 ATK?” asked Axel. My monster has 6 times his ATK.

            “I activate his ability!” said Joey. Now I flip a coin and guess which side on the coin lands up. If I’m right, all monsters you control are destroyed but if I’m wrong my monsters are destroyed and I take damage equal to half the ATK of my destroyed monsters. I call Tails! The coin lands. Tails, just what I needed! Volcanic Doomfire is destroyed. Time Wizard, direct attack!

            “I remove Volcanic Shell in my Grave from play for Firewall!” said Axel.

            “I end my turn,” said Joey. (0)

            “I summon another Volcanic Slicer in Attack Mode,” said Axel. Slicer, destroy his Time Wizard! Time Wizard is destroyed and Joey’s LPs drop to 400. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I play Monster Reborn to revive your Doomfire!” said Joey. Doomfire reappears. Doomfire, destroy his Slicer! Slicer is destroyed and Axel’s LPs drop to 3100. Since your monster was destroyed, you take 500 damage! Axel’s LPs drop to 2600. That ends my turn. (0)

            “My move and I pay for Firewall!” said Axel. His LPs drop to 2100. Then I summon Volcanic Blaster (0600) in Defense Mode and end my turn. (0)

Volcanic Eruption (1)

Previously…

            “Uh, do I know you?” asked Joey.

            “Of course not,” said Axel. That’s not what I came here for.

            “Then what did ya come here for?” asked Joey.

            “To duel you!” said Axel.

            “Fine, then let’s duel!” said Joey.

            “I’ll start with Blaze Accelerator,” said Axel.

            “What Accelerator?” asked Joey.

            “Blaze Accelerator and it lets me send 500 ATK or less Pyro-Type monsters to my Grave in order to destroy a monster you control,” said Axel. Next I summon Volcanic Slicer (1800) in Attack Mode. Then I use his effect, dealing you 500 damage! Joey’s LPs drop to 7500. Since I can’t attack with it this turn, I set 2 cards face down and end my turn. (2)

            “I summon Alligator Sword (1500) in Attack Mode,” said Joey. Then, I play Graceful Dice, which gives my monster 100 ATK times the die result! It better give me somethin’ good or my monster’s toast! The die lands. A 4, alright! Alligator Sword’s ATK rises to 1900. Alligator Sword, destroy his Volcanic Slicer!

            “I activate Firewall!” said Axel. With this card, I can negate any of your direct attacks but I gotta remove a Pyro-Type monster in my hand from play and pay 500 points to keep my card in play. Volcanic Slicer is still destroyed and his LPs drop to 7900.

            “I set 1 card face down and end my turn,” said Joey. (3)

            “First I pay for Firewall,” said Axel. His LPs drop to 7400. Then I use my Blaze Accelerator’s effect, which sends Volcanic Scattershot to my Grave, and by Scattershot’s effect, deals you 500 damage! He discards Volcanic Scattershot to his Grave and Joey’s LPs drop to 7000. Next, since my Scattershot was sent to my Grave by Blaze Accelerator’s effect, I can send two more to my Grave and destroy all monsters you control! He discards 2 more Volcanic Scattershots and Joey’s monster is destroyed. Fortunately for you I can’t attack the turn I use Blaze Accelerator’s effect. That ends my turn. (0)

            “My move,” said Joey. I summon Panther Warrior (2000) in Attack Mode. Next, I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (2)

            “I pay for Firewall,” said Axel. His LPs drop to 6900. Then I send my Blaze Accelerator to my Grave to play Tri-Blaze Accelerator! Basically it works like Blaze Accelerator except that it deals you 500 damage just by sending the monster to the Grave. Next I activate my face down card, Volcanic Force! It sends my Tri-Blaze Accelerator to my Grave for the almighty Volcanic Doomfire (3000) in Attack Mode from my deck! If that’s not hot enough for you, I attack your Panther Warrior! Panther Warrior is destroyed and Joey’s LPs drop to 6000. Since my Doomfire destroyed your monster, you take another 500 damage! Joey’s LPs drop to 5500. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I play Monster Reborn to revive my Panther Warrior in Attack Mode,” said Joey. Panther Warrior reappears. Next I tribute it for Maximum Six (1900) in Attack Mode.

            “That monster’s far too weak to come even close to defeating my Doomfire,” said Axel.

            “Maybe but when he's summoned, his ability activates, forcin’ me to roll a die and he gains ATK equal to the die result times 200! The die lands. A six, so my monster gets 1200 more ATK! Maximum Six’s ATK rises to 3100. Maximum Six, destroy his Doomfire! Doomfire is destroyed and Axel’s LPs drop to 6800. I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (0)

            “First I pay for Firewall,” said Axel. His LPs drop to 6300. Then I play Volcanic Shell (0000) in Defense Mode. Next I use his effect to add another Volcanic Shell to my hand from my deck but it costs me 500 points. His LPs drop to 5800. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I summon Marauding Captain (1200) in Attack Mode,” said Joey. Captain, destroy Volcanic Shell! Volcanic Shell is destroyed. Maximum Six, direct attack!

            “I remove Volcanic Slicer from my Grave using Firewall!” said Axel.

            “I end my turn,” said Joey. (0)

            “I play Fire Recovery!” said Axel. By discarding my Volcanic Shell, I can revive Volcanic Doomfire from my Grave in Attack Mode! Doomfire reappears. Doomfire, destroy his Marauding Captain!

The Warrior Returning Alive (3)

Previously…

            “My move,” said Yugi. His LPs drop to 2000. Why did my LPs decrease?

            “Dogma’s effect halves your points during your Standby Phase following his summoning,” said Gurimo.

            “I’ve gotta figure out a way to defeat all of his monsters,” said Yugi to himself. First, since my Silent Magician has 5 Spell Counters on it, I can summon Silent Magician LV8 (3500) in Attack Mode. Next, I set 1 card face down. Silent Magician, destroy his Gearfried! Gearfried is destroyed and Gurimo’s LPs drop to 5900 while Beginning’s ATK drops to 4500, Dogma’s ATK drops to 3900, Dark Blade’s ATK drops to 2700, Stratos’ ATK drops to 2500, and Phoenix Enforcer’s ATK drop to 3600. I will defeat you next turn! (4)

            “Really?” asked Gurimo. With only 1 monster to protect you, you will lose for even my Black Luster Soldier of the Beginning can defeat you. Black Luster Soldier, end this!

            “I activate Mirror Force!” said Yugi. Your Attack Position monsters are destroyed! Beginning, Dark Blade, Phoenix Enforcer, Stratos and Dogma are destroyed.

            “I play The Warrior Returning Alive to return Stratos to my hand,” said Gurimo. Then I summon Stratos in Defense Mode and end my turn. (1)

            “I play Magnet Reverse!” said Yugi. It lets me bring back Valkyrion in Attack Mode. Valkyrion reappears. Valkyrion, destroy his Stratos! Stratos is destroyed. Silent Magician, direct attack! Gurimo’s LPs drop to 3400. That ends my turn. (4)

            “I activate Pot of Greed, giving me 2 cards,” said Gurimo. Then I summon Marauding Captain (0400) in Defense Mode. Next, by his effect, I summon a second Marauding Captain in Defense Mode and each of their effects prevents any other Warrior-Type monster from being attacked, which at the moment is my other Marauding Captain but since he’s protected by the first Marauding Captain, you can’t attack! I end my turn by setting 1 card face down. (0)

            “My move,” said Yugi. How can I defeat him with those two monsters out? I must figure out a way to either negate their effects or get rid of one. I use Valkyrion’s effect to bring back my Magnet Warriors in Defense Mode! Valkyrion disappears and the Magnet Warriors reappear. Then I set 4 cards face down and tribute my Alpha and Gamma for Gandora the Dragon of Destruction (0000) in Attack Mode. Next I activate his effect, which by halving my LPs destroys all cards but himself on the field. Then he gets 300 ATK for each destroyed card! His LPs drop to 1000 and all other cards on the field are destroyed, raising Gandora’s ATK to 3600. Gandora, end this duel! Gurimo’s LPs drop to 0.

            “Way to go, Yugi!” said Tea`.

            “How could I lose?” asked Gurimo. He collapses and yells as the seal shrinks around him and takes his soul. Elsewhere…

            “Another of my men has paid for the Oreichalkos,” said Dartz. Now it’s time for me to defeat him myself! He walks off. Meanwhile…

            “Time to heat things up,” said Axel. I gotta find me a rival! He races off. An hour later… Sounds like  a starting opponent to try out my deck.

            “Uh, do I know you?” asked Joey.

            “Of course not,” said Axel. That’s not what I came here for.

            “Then what did ya come here for?” asked Joey.

            “To duel you!” said Axel.

            “Fine, then let’s duel!” said Joey.

            “I’ll start with Blaze Accelerator,” said Axel.

            “What Accelerator?” asked Joey.

            “Blaze Accelerator and it lets me send 500 ATK or less Pyro-Type monsters to my Grave in order to destroy a monster you control,” said Axel. Next I summon Volcanic Slicer (1800) in Attack Mode. Then I use his effect, dealing you 500 damage! Joey’s LPs drop to 7500. Since I can’t attack with it this turn, I set 2 cards face down and end my turn. (2)

            “I summon Alligator Sword (1500) in Attack Mode,” said Joey. Then, I play Graceful Dice, which gives my monster 100 ATK times the die result! It better give me somethin’ good or my monster’s toast!

The Warrior Returning Alive (2)

Previously…

            “Here goes,” said Yugi. I activate Pot of Greed, giving me 2 cards. Next, I discard my Magnet Warriors for Valkyrion the Magna Warrior (3500) in Attack Mode. Valkyrion, destroy his Phoenix Enforcer! Phoenix Enforcer is not destroyed but Gurimo’s LPs drop to 7100. Why wasn’t Phoenix Enforcer destroyed?

            “Its effect prevents it from being destroyed in battle,” said Gurimo.

            “I end my turn,” said Yugi. (0)

            “By the power of the Oreichalkos, I shall win,” said Gurimo. Silent Magician’s ATK rises to 2500. I play The A. Forces! It raises the ATK of my Warrior-Type monsters by 200 for each Warrior-Type monster I control! Phoenix Enforcer’s ATK rises to 3400, Gearfried and Dark Blade’s ATKs rise to 3100 while Makyura’s ATK rises to 2900.

            “That’s not enough to defeat my Valkyrion,” said Yugi.

            “I end my turn,” said Gurimo. (0)

            “Alright,” said Yugi. I play Card of Sanctity, forcing us to draw cards until our hands hold 6. you drew cards, Silent Magician gets stronger! Silent Magician’s ATK rises to 3000. Valkyrion, destroy Makyura! Makyura is destroyed and Gurimo’s LPs drop to 6500 while Gearfried and Dark Blade’s ATKs drop to 2900 and Phoenix Enforcer’s ATK drops to 3200.

            “When Makyura goes to my Graveyard, I can play Trap Cards from my hand,” said Gurimo. I activate 2 Hero Signals and 1 Destiny Signal! My Hero Signals let me play Elemental Hero Stratos (2300), Elemental Hero Ocean (2000) and Destiny Signal lets me play Destiny Hero Diamond Dude (1900) in Attack Mode! With The A. Forces, my monsters all get stronger! Gearfried and Dark Blade’s ATKs rise to 3500, Phoenix Enforcer’s ATK rises to 3800, Stratos’ ATK rises to 2900, Ocean’s ATK rises to 2600, and Diamond Dude’s ATK rises to 2500.

            “I use the effect of Valkyrion, which sends him to my Graveyard and brings back Gamma the Magnet Warrior (1800), Beta the Magnet Warrior (1600) and Alpha the Magnet Warrior (1700) in Defense Mode,” said Yugi. Then I set 2 cards face down and end my turn. (3)

            “You’re finished!” said Gurimo. Silent Magician’s ATK rises to 3500. Each of my monsters are far more powerful than yours. Once they’re gone, I can wipe out your LPs and take your soul. However, I must first dispose of your Marshmallon and I have just the card to do so! First I summon Elemental Hero Sparkman (2100) in Attack Mode. You’ll never defeat my army of monsters! Sparkman’s ATK rises to 3800, Diamond Dude’s ATK rises to 2700, Stratos’ ATK rises to 3100, Ocean’s ATK rises to 2800, Enforcer’s ATK rises to 4000 while Gearfried and Dark Blade’s ATKs rise to 3300. Then, I tribute Diamond Dude, Sparkman and Ocean for Destiny Hero Dogma (3900) in Attack Mode. Stratos’ ATK drops to 2500, Enforcer’s ATK drops to 3400, Gearfried and Dark Blade’s ATKs drop to 2700. Now that a LIGHT and DARK monster are in my Graveyard, I remove them for Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning (3500) in Attack Mode. Let’s not forget that with another Warrior-Type monster out, my monsters get stronger still! Beginning’s ATK rises to 4700, Dark Blade and Gearfried’s ATKs rise to 2900, Dogma’s ATK rises to 4100 and Stratos’ ATK rises to 2700 and Phoenix Enforcer’s ATK rises to 3800. Now I use his effect, which by preventing him from attacking removes Marshmallon from play! Marshmallon disappears from the field. Stratos, destroy Gamma! Gamma is destroyed. Dogma, destroy Beta! Beta is destroyed. Phoenix Enforcer, destroy his Alpha! Alpha is destroyed. Gearfried, destroy Silent Magician!

            “Go Soul Shield!” said Yugi. By paying half my points, the Battle Phase ends! His LPs drop to 4000.

            “Very well, I end my turn,” said Gurimo. (1)

            “My move,” said Yugi. His LPs drop to 2000. Why did my LPs decrease?

            “Dogma’s effect halves your points during your Standby Phase following his summoning,” said Gurimo.

            “I’ve gotta figure out a way to defeat all of his monsters,” said Yugi to himself. First, since my Silent Magician has 5 Spell Counters on it, I can summon Silent Magician LV8 (3500) in Attack Mode. Next, I set 1 card face down. Silent Magician, destroy his Gearfried! Gearfried is destroyed and Gurimo’s LPs drop to 5900 while Beginning’s ATK drops to 4500, Dogma’s ATK drops to 3900, Dark Blade’s ATK drops to 2700, Stratos’ ATK drops to 2500, and Phoenix Enforcer’s ATK drop to 3600. I will defeat you next turn! (4)

The Warrior Returning Alive (1)

In an ally…

            “Once I defeat you, Yugi, I’ll seal your soul for all eternity!” said Gurimo. Without your pharaoh friend to duel for you, you can’t possibly win! Elsewhere..

            “I must defeat this biker gang,” said Yugi.

            “You will,” said Tea`.

            “Yeah, but won’t be easy,” said Yugi.

            “No it won’t and when I defeat you, we won’t be defeated!” said a voice.

            “Can that be who I think it is?” asked Yugi.

            “Yes, it’s me, Gurimo,” said Gurimo.

            “Why are you here?” asked Yugi.

            “To take your soul,” said Gurimo. Let’s duel!

            “Fine, let’s duel!” said Yugi.

            “Are you sure about this?” asked Tea`.

            “I am,” said Yugi.

            “I’ll start with Polymerization,” said Gurimo. It sends my Elemental Heroes Burstinatrix and Avian for Elemental Hero Phoenix Enforcer (2100) in Attack Mode. Then I set 2 cards face down and end my turn. (1)

            “I summon Marshmallon (0500) in Defense Mode,” said Yugi.

            “I activate Hidden Soldiers!” said Gurimo. Since you summoned a monster, I can summon a Level 4 DARK monster from my hand and I choose Dark Blade (1800) in Attack Mode.

            “I activate Marshmallon Glasses, which makes your only attack target Marshmallon,” said Yugi. Finally, I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (3)

            “I draw and summon Gearfried the Iron Knight (1800) in Attack Mode,” said Gurimo. Gearfried, destroy Marshmallon! Marshmallon is not destroyed.

            “Marshmallon can’t be destroyed in battle,” said Yugi.      

            “I end my turn,” said Gurimo. (0)

            “I summon Silent Magician (1000) in Defense Mode,” said Yugi. That ends my turn. (3)

            “You’re through!” said Gurimo.

            “My Silent Magician’s effect activates, giving him 500 points since you’re drawing a card,” said Yugi. Silent Magician’s ATK rises to 1500.

            “I activate the Seal of Oreichalkos!” said Gurimo. Now all my monsters get 500 ATK! Phoenix Enforcer’s ATK rises to 2600, Gearfried and Dark Blade’s ATKs rise to 2300. That ends my turn. (0)

            “Alright, my move,” said Yugi. I summon Queen’s Knight (1600) in Defense Mode and set 1 card face down to end my turn. (2)

            “My move,” said Gurimo. Silent Magician’s ATK rises to 2000. I summon Makyura the Destructor (2100) in Attack Mode. That ends my turn. (0)

            “Here goes,” said Yugi. I activate Pot of Greed, giving me 2 cards. Next, I discard my Magnet Warriors for Valkyrion the Magna Warrior (3500) in Attack Mode. Valkyrion, destroy his Phoenix Enforcer! Phoenix Enforcer is not destroyed but Gurimo’s LPs drop to 7100. Why wasn’t Phoenix Enforcer destroyed?

            “Its effect prevents it from being destroyed in battle,” said Gurimo.

            “I end my turn,” said Yugi. (0)

            “By the power of the Oreichalkos, I shall win,” said Gurimo. Silent Magician’s ATK rises to 2500. I play The A. Forces! It raises the ATK of my Warrior-Type monsters by 200 for each Warrior-Type monster I control! Phoenix Enforcer’s ATK rises to 3400, Gearfried and Dark Blade’s ATKs rise to 3100 while Makyura’s ATK rises to 2900.

            “That’s not enough to defeat my Valkyrion,” said Yugi.

            “I end my turn,” said Gurimo. (0)

            “Alright,” said Yugi. I play Card of Sanctity, forcing us to draw cards until our hands hold 6. Since you drew cards, Silent Magician gets stronger! Silent Magician’s ATK rises to 3000.  Valkyrion, destroy Makyura!

The Road to Victory (2)

Previously…

            “State your name!” said Hassleberry.

            “Alister’s the name,” said Alister. It’s time to duel!

            “Sam Hill!” said Hassleberry. You gotta be outta your mind!

            “Afraid, are we?” asked Alister.

            “No way!” said Hassleberry. Time for combat! Both start their motorcycles.

            “I summon KC One Clayton (2500) in Attack Mode,” said Alister. Clayton, destroy his Dark Driceratops!

            “I activate Amber Pitfall!” said Hassleberry. Your monster goes to Defense Mode and cannot change modes.

            “Fine, that ends my turn,” said Alister. (2)

            “It’s feedin’ time for I play Ultimate Tyranno (3000) in Attack Mode,” said Hassleberry.

            “I’ll make that dino extinct for my Clayton has far more ATK than yours,” said Alister.

            “My monster has an effect,” said Hassleberry. It must attack all your monsters at once so fire away, Ultimate Tyranno! All 3 monsters are destroyed. I set 1 card face down and refer to you. (0)

            “I play Toy Robot Box!” said Alister. By discarding a card, it lets me summon 3 Toy Robot Tokens (0000) in Defense Mode. Next, I play Pot of Greed, so I get 2 cards. Then, I activate Sky Union, letting me tribute my tokens for Air Fortress Ziggurat (3000) in Attack Mode. That ends my turn and since my turn has ended, I can summon another Toy Robot Token in Defense Mode. (0)

            “Sorry, but your monster is going down!” said Hassleberry.

            “How, you can’t use Spell or Trap cards on my Ziggurat!” said Alister.

            “My monster’s effect forces it to attack if it’s in Attack Mode,” said Hassleberry. Tyranno, attack! All 3 monsters are destroyed. Next I play Black Tyranno (2600) in Attack Mode and end my turn. (0)

            “I summon Cyber Soldier of Darkworld (1200) in Defense Mode and end my turn by activating my Royal Decree Trap. It negates any other Trap Cards on the field. (0)

            “Your monster is no match for Black Tyranno,” said Hassleberry. I summon Black Stego (1200) in Attack Mode. Black Tyranno, destroy his Cyber Soldier! Cyber Soldier is destroyed. Black Stego, attack directly! Alister’s LPs drop to 5200. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I play Kinetic Soldier (1850) in Attack Mode,” said Alister. Kinetic Soldier, destroy his Black Stego! Black Stego is not destroyed and his LPs drop to 5050. How did your monster survive?

            “When Black Stego is attacked, he goes to Defense Mode,” said Hassleberry.

            “I end my turn,” said Alister.

            “I play Element Saurus (1500) in Attack Mode,” said Hassleberry. Black Tyranno, destroy his Kinetic Soldier! Kinetic Soldier is destroyed and Alister’s LPs drop to 4300. Element Saurus, attack the enemy directly! Alister’s LPs drop to 2800. That ends my turn. (0)

            “I activate another Aetonics Flame Spell!” said Alister. Black Tyranno, Black Stego, and Element Saurus are destroyed. That ends my turn. (0)

            “This war is over!” said Hassleberry. I draw! Perfect, just what I need to win this! I activate Pot of Greed, so I get 2 cards. Next I summon Tyranno Infinity (????) in Attack Mode. Then I play Dino Stomp, so when my Infinity attacks, I can destroy a Spell or Trap Card you control. Infinity attack! I destroy your Royal Decree! Royal Decree is destroyed. Now I activate my face down card, Survival Instinct! So by removing 3 Dino-Type monsters in my Graveyard from play, I get 1200 points and since my Tyranno Infinity’s ATK is 1000 points for every Dino I removed from play, his ATK is raised! Tyranno’s ATK rises to 3000 while Hassleberry’s LPs rise to 8500. Now your LPs are wiped out! Alister’s LPs drop to 0 and the seal shrinks around him, taking his soul as he yells. Another soldier down! Hassleberry’s Bio Band activates and he collapses. Meanwhile…

            “Seems Alister didn’t have what it takes,” said Dartz. Gurimo, it’s your turn to face Yugi!

            “I won’t fail you, master,” said Gurimo. He races off.

            “You’d better not, for the Great Leviathan needs souls to be reborn,” said Dartz. Elsewhere…

            “Oh great, the wackos with the Seal of Oreichalkos on their heads are back,” said Kaiba. It’s time to finish them off!

 

 

 

The Road to Victory (1)

On a motorcycle…

            “Once I find you, I’ll take your soul with ease!” said Alister to himself. All I got to do is find you! Elsewhere…

            “I can’t believe Syrus lost!” said Alexis. Now he’s gone forever!

            “Not if I can help it!” said Jaden.

            “What do you mean, Jaden?” asked Alexis.

            “I gotta find the person that defeated Syrus and defeat him in a duel,” said Jaden.

            “How are you going to do that?” asked Alexis.

            “I don’t know,” said Jaden.

            “We need a plan,” said Hassleberry.        

            “Yeah but what?” asked Jaden.

            “I can answer that easily,” said Alister.

            “State your name!” said Hassleberry.

            “Alister’s the name,” said Alister. It’s time to duel!

            “Fine,” said Hassleberry. Where’s the battlefield?

            “Here,” said Aster. He points to two motorcycles. We’re dueling on top of them while they’re moving!

            “Sam Hill!” said Hassleberry. You gotta be outta your mind!

            “Afraid, are we?” asked Alister.

            “No way!” said Hassleberry. Time for combat! Both start their motorcycles.

            “I’ll start,” said Alister. I summon Gorlag (1000) in Attack Mode. Gorlag’s ATK rises to 1500. Thanks to his effect, for every FIRE monster out, he gets 500 ATK points. Next I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (4)

            “I play Sabersaurus (1900) in Attack Mode,” said Hassleberry. Next, I play Jurassic World. This Field Spell gives all Dino-Type monsters 300 ATK and DEF! Sabersaurus’ ATK rises to 2200. Sabersaurus, forward march! Gorlag is destroyed and Alister’s LPs drop to 7300. I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (3)

            “I activate Aetonic Flames,” said Alister. It destroys all monsters that aren’t FIRE or Fiend-Type.  Sabersaurus is destroyed. Now I can bring back my Gorlag in Attack Mode! Gorlag reappears. Next I play the Seal of Oreichalkos! It raises the ATK of all my monsters by 500! Jurassic World is destroyed and Gorlag’s ATK rises to 2000. Fortunately for you, I can’t attack this turn, so I set 1 card face down and end my turn. (2)

            “Alright, I draw,” said Hassleberry. I play Gilasaurus (1400) in Attack Mode and since it was a Special Summon, I tribute so Dark Driceratops (2400) can report for duty in Attack Mode. Dark Driceratops, destroy his Gorlag! Gorlag is destroyed and Alister’s LPs drop to 6900. I end my turn. (2)

            “I summon KC One Clayton (2500) in Attack Mode,” said Alister. Clayton, destroy his Dark Driceratops!

            “I activate Amber Pitfall!” said Hassleberry. Your monster goes to Defense Mode and cannot change modes.

            “Fine, that ends my turn,” said Alister. (2)

            “I play Big Evolution Pill, which forces me to sacrifice one of my troops but in exchange for 3 of your turns, I can play a Dino-Type monster without tributes,” said Hassleberry. I summon Super Conductor Tyranno (3300) in Attack Mode. Conductor Tyranno, attack his Clayton! Clayton is destroyed. That ends my turn. (1)

            “I summon another KC Clayton in Attack Mode,” said Alister. Next, I reveal my face down card, Tank Corp! It summons 3 Tank Tokens (1200) in Defense Mode! Plus my Clayton gains 500 ATK for each token! Clayton’s ATK rises to 4000. Clayton, destroy his Conductor Tyranno! Super Conductor Tyranno is destroyed and Hassleberry’s LPs drop to 7300. That ends my turn. (2)

            “It’s feedin’ time for I play Ultimate Tyranno (3000) in Attack Mode,” said Hassleberry.

            “I’ll make that dino extinct for my Clayton has far more ATK than yours,” said Alister.

            “My monster has an effect,” said Hassleberry. It must attack all your monsters at once so fire away, Ultimate Tyranno!
