Fate's Seal (37)

"I'll activate my face down card, Transcendent Wings to tribute my Winged Kuriboh and toss out my last 2 cards for Winged Kuriboh LV10 (0200) in Defense Mode and that'll do," stated Jaden. (2)

"Then it's my turn and to start, I'll summon Malefic Empress (1300) in Attack Mode by removing from play the original from my Deck and due to her effect, she negates the effects of monsters she battles with so Empress, attack Marshmallon! *Marshmallon is destroyed* Magician, attack directly! *Yugi's LPs drop to 2100* Just face it, you don't stand a chance against the ultimate power of Malefics! *He laughs* That will end my turn," stated (Sartorius). (0)

"I'll tribute my Gazelle for Berformet (1800) in Defense Mode and end my turn now," said Yugi. (1)

"I think I'll have a go with my Pot of Greed and that'll give me 2 more cards. *He draws his cards* Then I'll use Fusion Recovery to retrieve the Clayman and Polymerization cards from my Grave. With that, I'll use the Polymerization to discard the Sparkman I just drew and the Clayman I just returned to my hand for Elemental Hero Thunder Giant (2400) in Attack Mode. Then I'll use his effect to discard 1 card to destroy Malefic Lovers! *Malefic Lovers and all other Malefic monsters are destroyed* Thunder Giant, attack directly! *(Sartorius') LPs drop to 4600* I'll end my turn with that," concluded Jaden. (1)

"You have just about sealed your fate in this duel, for thanks to you, since my Malefic monsters were destroyed I'll now be able to unleash Malefic Shunoros (?) in Attack Mode and he doesn't need a Field Spell since he was Special Summoned by his effect. Now then, his ATK becomes half the ATK of all Malefic monsters I lost so with Truth Dragon and Kyutora, his ATK is 2750! *Shunoros' ATK rises to 2750* Each time he destroys a monster, he gains half of that monster's ATK so Shunoros, destroy his Berformet! *Berformet is destroyed and Shunoros' ATK rises to 3450* I'll set 1 card face down to complete my turn," announced Dartz. (0)

"I'll remove from play my Arcana Force The Moon for Malefic Moon (2800) in Attack Mode and when he's played while I control only another Malefic monster that isn't Malefic Moon, I can draw 2 cards. *He draws 2 cards* Also, once per turn during my End Phase, I can bring back a Malefic monster of a lower Level from my Grave ignoring its summoning conditions. Now I activate Fate's Seal and with this Field Spell, the ATK of all Malefic monsters is doubled when they battle a monster. Plus I can tribute a Malefic monster to negate a card effect's activation and destroy it. Malefic Moon, destroy his Thunder Giant! *Malefic Moon's ATK rises to 5600 and Thunder Giant is destroyed, leaving Jaden with 4800* I'll set 1 card face down to end my turn," stated (Sartorius). (0)

"I play Witch of the Black Forest (1200) in Defense Mode and end my turn," stated Yugi. (1)

"Here goes somethin'! I gotta destroy that Field Spell or he can keep negating anything I play and that'll likely cost me or my partner the duel. Wait a sec, he only has 1 Malefic monster out so if he wants to negate it, he'll be wide open for my next attack! All I need to do is bait him to tribute the monster. I've got two cards in hand and they're both monsters so I'll need to use this guy for now. I play Card Trooper (0400) in Defense Mode and call it a turn," announced Jaden. (1)

"Yugi, you think you can defend your LPs with that measly monster? A mere 1200 DEF will be no match for my Malefic Shunoros and will only increase its ATK. Malefic Shunoros, destroy his Witch of the Black Forest!" yelled Dartz. *Witch of the Black Forest is destroyed*

"With Witch of the Black Forest's effect, I'll pick up Green Gadget," explained Yugi showing the card.

"All that matters to me is that with your Witch destroyed, my Shunoros gains 550 more ATK! *Shunoros' ATK rises to 4000* That will end my turn," concluded Dartz. (1)

"Let's see your Card Trooper get out of this as my Moon will attack it! *Card Trooper is destroyed* Due to Fate's Seal's effect, I'll tribute Malefic Moon to negate your Card Trooper's effect that allows you to draw 1 card when it's destroyed. *Malefic Moon disappears* I'll set another card face down to complete my turn," said (Sartorius). (0)

"I'll play my Card of Sanctity Spell and now we both draw until we're holding 6 cards!*He and Dartz draw their cards* Next I'll use Monster Reborn to bring back my Red Gadget! *Red Gadget appears* Then I'll use Polymerization to send all 3 of my Gadgets to my Grave for my ultimate Fusion Monster!" stated Yugi.
