Turn 1 (Hooded Stranger)
"I'll go first."
"I set 5 cards, and end my turn."
"Heh, is that all you can do? Didn't get lucky? Want to restart so you actually have a chance of victory?" Daniel laughed.
"This is more than enough to beat you, I just hope you'll put up a fight."
Turn 2 (Daniel)
"I draw!"
"I activate the field spell Foggy Forest! All of my 'Fog' monsters gain 500 attack and defense!"
"Now I summon Fog Wanderer!"
Fog Wanderer: 1000atk/0def/lvl4
"Now, Fog Wanderer attacks you directly!"
"I activate my face-down card! Trap Crafter Gale! When it's activated, it's summoned as a monster to my side of the field, and when it is, I return one card on your side of the field to your hand!"
Trap Crafter Gale: 1500atk/2000def/lvl5
"I also activate my face-down trap Trap Crafter Terra! When it's activated, it's summoned to my side of the field as a monster, and then I destroy spells and traps on your field equal to the amount of face-up 'Trap Crafter's on my field! So I destroy your Foggy Forest!"
Trap Crafter Terra: 2000atk/1500def/lvl5
"Grrr... I set two cards, and end my turn."
Turn 3
"I draw!"
"I activate my face-down card! The continuous trap: Fresh Materials! While this card is face-up on the field, all my trappers get a 500 attack boost!"
2000 - 2500
1500 - 2000
"Then I activate the trap; Trapper Calling! Trapper Calling allows me to summon a 'Trap Crafter' monster from my hand straight to my field as a monster! I summon Trap Crafter Ignis!"
Trap Crafter Ignis: 2500atk/2000def/lvl6
2500 - 3000
"Trap Crafter Ignis' ability activates! All monsters on the field have their level raised to 6!"
"Now, I build an overlay network with Trap Crafter Ignis and Gale! I bring to you, one of the masterminds behind the creations in the workshop! I XYZ summon, Trap Master Torture Gear!"
Trap Master Torture Gear: 0atk/2500def/rank6
"When Torture Gear is summoned, it's switched to defense position!"
"I activate Torture Gear's ability! By using one overlay unit, I summon one Trap Spring Token to your side of the field!"
Trap Spring Token: 0atk/0def/lvl1
"Trap Spring Tokens can't be targeted for an attack, can't be affected by spell or traps, and can't be used to tribute summon, fusion summon, synchro summon, or XYZ summon."
"Now, due to the Trap Spring Token, I'm unable to attack, so I end my turn."
Turn 4
"I draw!"
"I activate the spell Gathering Fog! It allows me to special summon a fog monster from my hand, but it can't attack until next turn. Come out, Fog Wanderer!"
Fog Wanderer: 1000atk/0def/lvl4
"Fog Wanderer's ability activates! I can summon up to two more from my deck! And I'll do just that! I summon two more Fog Wanderers!"
"Now I build the overlay network using my three Fog Wanderers! Come out from hiding, The Beast Withing the Fog!"
The Beast Within the Fog: 2500atk/1000def/rank4
"When The Beast Within the Fog is summoned, I can activate Foggy Forest from the graveyard, giving my Fog monsters 500 extra attack!"
2500atk - 3000atk
"Now The Beast Within the Fog attack Trap Crafter Terra! Unseen Claws!"
"I activate my face-down! Half Unbreak! My monster isn't destroyed and I take half the battle damage!"
4000LP - 3500LP
"I set two cards, and end my turn!"
Turn 5
"I draw!"
"I activate Trap Master Torture Gear's ability! By using one overlay unit, I summon a Trap Spring Token to your side of the field!"
Trap Spring Token: 0atk/0def/lvl1
"I activate Trap Reinforcement! All 'Trap' monsters on my field gain 500 defense!
2500def - 3000def
"Now! Using Rank 6 Trap Master Torture Gear and Level 6 Trap Crafter Terra, I balance the scales! Every generation thinks of ways to torture, and this generation is no different! Allow me to bring out a fresh creation from the workshop! Balance Summon! Torture Trap - Iron Maiden!"
Torture Trap - Iron Maiden: 0atk/3000def/lvl3/rank3
"Iron Maiden's ability activates! It destroys the Trap Spring Tokens on your field, and it gains 1000 defense for each of them!
3000def - 5000def
"Now I activate Iron Maiden's first ability! It equips a monster you control, and gains defense equal to it's attack and defense combined, then, if it was an XYZ monster, the added amount plus the current amount become it's original defense, and then the amount is added on again, treating it as a normal monster! Go, Iron Maiden! Eternal Entrapment!"
5000def - 8000def
8000def - 11000def
"Now I activate Iron Maiden's second effect! By banishing the monster I equipped to it, you take damage equal to half of Iron Maiden's original defense, meaning you take 4000 points of damage, leading to an instant kill! Never Ending Spikes!"
4000LP - 0LP
Winner: Hooded Stranger
"For someone who talked a big game, he went down easily."
Daniel fell to the ground, unconscious.
