"I use Allure of Darkness to draw twice and remove from play the Darknight Parshath in my hand," said YJ. Now Caius, destroy his Summoned Skull!
"I activate Mirror Force so that's the end of your Caius," said Yugi. *Caius is destroyed*
"I end my turn," said YJ. (1)
"I summon Gamma the Magnet Warrior (1500) in Attack Mode," said Yugi. Gamma, attack directly!
"I summon Battle Fader (0000) in Defense Mode from my hand!" said YJ.
"You can't play a monster from your hand during my turn without a card effect," said Yugi.
"Yeah, you gotta be cheatin'!" said Hassleberry.
"I'm afraid it's perfectly legal," said YJ. Battle Fader lets me summon him to my field if you declare a direct attack and when he's summoned this way, he ends the Battle Phase. You're always one step behind!
"I guess I end my turn," said Yugi. (0)
"I tribute Battle Fader for Doom Shaman (2400) in Attack Mode," said YJ. Shaman, destroy his Gamma the Magnet Warrior! *Gamma is destroyed and Yugi's LPs drop to 3700* Give up yet? I end my turn. (0)
"I summon Beta the Magnet Warrior (1600) in Defense Mode," said Yugi. That ends my turn. (0)
"Looks like the great king of games is running out of options," said YJ. I always have an option or two like this one as I play Mad Dog of Darkness (1900) in Attack Mode. Mad Dog, destroy his Beta the Magnet Warrior! *Beta is destroyed* Doom Shaman, destroy Summoned Skull! *Summoned Skull is destroyed and Yugi's LPs drop to 3200* That ends my turn. (0)
"This is it," thought Yugi. I have no cards out or in my hand so I'll need to draw Card of Sanctity. It'll be a risky play since it lets my opponent draw also but I have no other option at this point. It's time to make this draw count! *He draws his card* Got it! I activate Card of Sanctity, letting us both draw cards until our hands hold 6! Then I use Monster Reborn to revive my Watapon! *Watapon appears* Then I tribute it for Silent Swordsman LV5 (2300) in Attack Mode. Thanks to his effect, he's unaffected by your Burdon's effect.
"Doesn't matter," said YJ. He still can't destroy my Doom Shaman.
"Maybe but your Mad Dog of Darkness doesn't stand a chance!" said Yugi. Silent Swordsman, destroy her Mad Dog of Darkness! *Mad Dog is destroyed and YJ's LPs drop to 4200* Next I use Fissure to destroy your only other monster! *Doom Shaman is destroyed* Finally, I set 2 cards face down to end my turn. (1)
"I use Synthesis Spell to discard Darklord Zerato for Lycanthrope (2400) in Attack Mode," said YJ. With 2400 ATK, it's enough to take out your Silent Swordsman so destroy it, Lycanthrope!
"I activate Soul Shield!" said Yugi. It ends the Battle Phase by halving my LPs. *His LPs drop to 1600*
"Then I'll set 2 cards to end my turn," said YJ. (2)
"First I reveal my face down card, Stronghold the Moving Fortress, which treats itself as a monster with 2000 DEF," said Yugi. *Stronghold appears* Next, I activate my other face down card, Ambush Shield, adding the DEF of Stronghold to my Silent Swordsman LV5 by tributing Stronghold! *Stronghold disappears and Silent Swordsman LV5's ATK rises to 4300* Silent Swordsman, destroy her Lycanthrope!
"I use my face down card, Mirror Force card so both of your monsters are destroyed!" said YJ. *Yugi's monsters are destroyed*
"I set 2 cards face down to end my turn," said Yugi. (0)
"Now it's about time I end this duel," said YJ. Lycanthrope, end this duel!
"I activate Turn Jump!" said Yugi. You now lose your Battle Phase and it becomes my turn now.
"Then go," said YJ. (3)
"I will," said Yugi. First I activate my other hidden card, Ground Erosion, which will lower the ATK of your monster by 500 each turn. Next I summon Marshmallon (0500) in Defense Mode to end my turn. (0)
"I draw," said YJ.
"Now Ground Erosion's effect activates!" said Yugi. *Lycanthrope's ATK drops to 1900*
"I set 1 monster in Defense Mode and 1 card face down to end my turn," said YJ. (2)
"Your monster is going down!" said Yugi drawing his card. I need a strategy now more than ever!
