Valon's Deck of Armor (Part 2)

Previously on Yu-Gi-Oh…

"I activate Dark Hole," said Yugi. This Spell Card destroys every monster on the field. Armored Zombie, Metalsilver Armor and Armed Dragon LV3 are destroyed. Then I summon Obnoxious Celtic Guard (1400/1200) in Attack Mode. Go Celtic Guard, attack his lifepoints directly! Valon's lifepoints drop to 2600. I set one card face down to end my turn.

"I've drawn just the card to take down your Obnoxious Celtic Guard," said Valon. I summon Mega Thunderball (750/600) in Attack Mode. Mega Thunderball's ATK rises to 1250 by the Oreichalkos.

"A monster with 1250 ATK points?" said Yugi shocked. How can that monster defeat my Guard?

"Simple," said Valon. I activate Reinforcements. This card adds 500 ATK points to my monster for the duration of the turn. Mega Thunderball's ATK rises to 1750. Mega Thunderball, destroy his Celtic Guard! Celtic Guard is destroyed and Yugi's lifepoints drop to 3550. I place one card face down and end my turn. Thunderball's ATK returns to 1250.

"I set two cards face down and summon Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight (2300/2100) in Attack Mode," said Yugi.

"You don't realize that you've broken the rules do you?" asked Valon.

"What are you talking about?" asked Yugi.

"That monster you just summoned can't be summoned without offering two monsters as a tribute first.

"Don't you know Swift Gaia's special ability?" asked Yugi.

"What special ability?" asked Valon.

"Its special ability allows me to normal summon it without any tributes if it's the only card in my hand," said Yugi. Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight, destroy his Thunderball!

"I activate Metalmorph," said Valon. This card adds 300 ATK points to my monster. Mega Thunderball's ATK rises to 1550. Plus, whenever it attacks one of your monsters, it adds half of the attacked monsters' ATK points to my monster. Thunderball is still destroyed and Valon's lifepoints drop to 1850.

"I set one card face down and end my turn," said Yugi.

"I summon Armored Lizard (1500/1200) in Attack Mode," said Valon. Armored Lizard's ATK rises to 2000 by the Seal. Then I activate Toll. This card costs us 500 lifepoints for each of our monsters that attack. Then, I set one card face down. It's your move, Yugi.

"I summon Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts (1500/1200) in Attack Mode," said Yugi. Then I play Ultimate Offering, which allows us to summon extra monsters at a cost of 500 lifepoints per monster. I activate Monster Reborn to revive Obnoxious Celtic Guard (1400/1200) in Attack Mode. Then I sacrifice my Celtic Guard to summon Berformet (1400/1800) in Defense Mode. Yugi's lifepoints drop to 1400. Finally, I play Polymerization to combine Gazelle and Berformet to form Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast (2100/1800) in Attack Mode. Now Chimera, destroy his Armored Lizard! Yugi's lifepoints drop to 900.
