"I must say you aren't half bad," said Samara. However, it's time you met another of my monsters. I play Lonefire Blossom (0500) in Attack Mode. With its effect, I can tribute it to play Tytannial, Princess of Camellias (2800) in Attack Mode.
"Since you played another monster, my Cyber Blader's ATK doubles," said Alexis. *Cyber Blader's ATK again rises to 4200*
"It's the end of the line for you and your monster," said Samsara. Tytannial, destroy her Cyber Angel Dakini! *Cyber Angel Dakini is destroyed and Alexis' LPs drop to 1700* That ends my turn. (1)
"I play Fulfillment of the Contract to bring back my Dakini for 800 Life Points," said Alexis. *Her LPs drop to 900 and Cyber Angel Dakini appears* Now it's the end for your Tytannial! *Tytannial is destroyed* Dakini, direct attack! *Samsara's LPs drop to 5300* That ends my turn. (0)
"I summon Lord Poison (1000) in Defense Mode," said Samsara. That ends my turn. (1)
"Tough break, Samsara because my Dakini deals damage for Defense Position monsters she attacks too," said Alexis. I play Angel Wing and equip it to Cyber Angel Dakini, making you take an additional 300 damage when she inflicts Battle Damage to you. Dakini, take out his Lord Poison! *Lord Poison is destroyed and Samsara's LPs drop to 3600* You also get hit with Angel Wing's effect! *Samsara's LPs drop to 3300* That ends my turn. (0)
"Before my turn begins, Lord Poison's effect activates, letting me bring back an old friend, Tytannial! *Tytannial reappears* Now then, I draw. Another Wall of Thorns, excellent. I set 1 card face down. Tytannial, destroy her Dakini! *Dakini is destroyed and Alexis' LPs drop to 800* That ends my turn. (0)
"Due to my Angel Wing's effect, I can draw 1 card," said Alexis. I play Scapegoat, giving me 4 Goat Tokens (0000 x4) in Defense Mode to end my turn. (1)
"It appears I've over-estimated you," said Samsara. Now you're just stalling the inevitable. I, however, will crush you in a matter of turns. I play Gigantic Cephalotus (1850) in Attack Mode. Now my monsters, destroy a Goat Token! *2 Goat Tokens are destroyed* I'll end my turn. (0)
"I play Fusion Recovery to get back Polymerization and Etoile Cyber," said Alexis. Then I use The Warrior Returning Alive to retrieve Blade Skater from my Grave. Finally, I use Poly again to bring out Cyber Blader! *Cyber Blader appears* Plus you have 2 monsters out so her ATK doubles. *Cyber Blader's ATK rise to 4200* I end my turn. (0)
"That was a waste of a turn," said Samsara. However, her Cyber Blader is pretty strong against my monsters. I'll just have to weaken it somehow. I summon Botanical Lion (1600) in Attack Mode and for every Plant-Type monster I have out, it gets 300 ATK.
"Not this time," said Alexis. Since you have 3 monsters, the effects of all your cards are negated by my Cyber Blader.
"Your Cyber Blader's ATK still drops," said Samsara. *Cyber Blader's ATK returns to 2100* Tytannial, destroy her Cyber Blader! *Cyber Blader is destroyed and Alexis' LPs drop to 100* Now my remaining monsters, destroy her last 2 Tokens! *The last 2 Goat Tokens are destroyed* That ends my turn and now that your Cyber Blader is gone, the ATK of my Botanical Lion increases. *Botanical Lion's ATK rises to 2500* (0)
"I use the other effect of Cyber Angel," said Alexis drawing her card. Since it and Cyber Tutu are in my Grave, and I have no cards on the field, I can remove from play Cyber Angel in my Grave to Special Summon a Level 7 Fusion Monster from my Graveyard with its ATK doubled this turn and its level decreased by 1 so come on back Cyber Blader! *Cyber Blader reappears and its ATK rises to 4200* Now your cards are powerless again. *Botanical Lion's ATK returns to 1600* Finally, I equip Cyber Blader with Fusion Weapon, raising its ATK by 1500. *Cyber Blader's ATK rises to 5700* Cyber Blader, destroy her Botanical Lion and end this duel! *Botanical Lion is destroyed and Samsara's LPs drop to 0*
"Way to play, Alexis!" said Syrus.
"Sweet duel, 'lex," said Jaden. *Meanwhile…*
"She did better than I expected," said Yubel. The other four won't be so lucky. *She laughs*
