Rise, Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth! (Part 4)

Previously…

“Elemental Hero Electrum, destroy his Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth!” said Jaden. *Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth is destroyed and Weevil’s LP drops to 7700 while Electrum’s ATK drops to 3500.* That ends my turn. (Hand: 4 cards)

“I draw,” said Weevil. It’s time to infect his Deck with my Parasite Paracide card. I set 1 monster in Defense Mode and end my turn. (Hand: 6 cards)

“I Summon Dark Catapulter (1500 DEF) in Defense Mode,” said Jaden. Since I Summoned an EARTH Attribute monster, you know what that means. *Electrum’s ATK rises to 3800.* Elemental Hero Electrum, destroy his face-down monster! *The face-down Parasite Paracide (300 DEF) is destroyed.*

“By attacking my Parasite card, you’ve caused your demise!” said Weevil. Here’s how it works. Put this card into your Deck and shuffle it. Once you draw it, you must Summon it to your side of the field, thereby taking 1000 points of damage and making all monsters you control Insect-Types.

“I end my turn,” said Jaden. (Hand: 4 cards)

          “I switch Leghul to Defense Mode,” said Weevil. Then, I Summon Pinch Hopper (Info) (1200 DEF) in Defense Mode and end my turn. (Hand: 5 cards)

“Since Pinch Hopper’s an EARTH monster, that’s another 300 ATK points for Electrum,” said Jaden. Electrum’s ATK rises to 4100. Alright, it’s my move and I Summon Hero Kid (Info) (600 DEF) in Defense Mode. Then, I throw down a face-down. Electrum, destroy Leghul! Leghul is destroyed. That ends my turn. (Hand: 3 cards)

“I set another monster in Defense Mode and end my turn,” said Weevil. (Hand: 5 cards)

“I Summon another Hero Kid (Info) in Defense Mode,” said Jaden. Electrum’s ATK rises to 4400. Electrum, destroy Pinch Hopper! Pinch Hopper is destroyed.

“When Pinch Hooper is destroyed, I get to Summon another Insect monster from my hand and I choose Insect Soldiers of the Sky (Info) (800 DEF) in Defense Mode.

“Did you forget that Electrum gains 300 ATK points for every monster with EARTH, WIND, WATER, LIGHT, and FIRE Attributes on the field?” asked Jaden. Electrum’s ATK rises to 4700. I end my turn. (Hand: 3 cards)

“My move,” said Weevil. I end my turn. (Hand: 6 cards)

“Elemental Hero Electrum, destroy his face-down monster!” said Jaden drawing his card. The face-down Kiseitai (Info) (800 DEF) is destroyed.  

          “Now, Kiseitai’s effect activates,” said Weevil. He becomes an Equip Card to Electrum and during your turn, I gain half of his ATK points, or 2350 to be precise.

“I end my turn,” said Jaden. (Hand: 4 cards)

“My move,” said Weevil. I discard 1 card and end my turn. (Hand: 6 cards)

“My draw,” said Jaden. Weevil’s LP rise to 10,050. I Tribute my 2 Hero Kids for Elemental Hero Bladedge (Info) (2600 ATK) in Attack Mode. Electrum’s ATK drops to 4400. Bladedge, destroy his Insect Soldiers! Insect Soldiers of the Sky is destroyed and Weevil’s LP drops to 8250 and Electrum’s ATK drops to 4100. See, when Bladedge attacks a monster with less DEF than his ATK, the difference comes out your LP. Electrum, attack his LP directly! Weevil’s LP drops to 3850. It’s your move. (Hand: 4 cards)

“My move,” said Weevil. If he draws the Parasite card, I’ll be saved and if he doesn’t I lose. At least I gain 2200 LP next turn, giving me enough LP to survive another turn. I Summon Flying Kamakiri #1 (Info) (900 DEF) in Defense Mode. Electrum’s ATK rises to 4700. Then, I activate Multiplication of Ants (Info). This card lets me Tribute 1 monster on my field to Summon 2 Army Ant Tokens in Defense Mode. Say goodbye to Flying Kamakiri #1 and hello to my Army Ant Tokens (1200 DEF each) in Defense Mode! Electrum’s ATK drops to 4400 then rises to 5000. That ends my turn. (Hand: 4 cards)

“My move,” said Jaden. Weevil’s LP rise to 6350. Bladedge, destroy 1 of the Tokens!

TO BE CONTINUED...

          “Time to throw down,” said Jaden. Neo Bubbleman isn’t bad, but I don’t have Metamorphosis in my hand. I end my turn. (Hand: 3 cards) I’m not givin’ up yet!

Rise, Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth! (Part 2)

Rise, Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth! (Part 1)

Previously...

“This Jaden person won’t be able to defeat me and my bug army,” said Weevil. All I have to do is find him. *Seconds later, Jaden and the gang walk right past him.* There he is.

          “Huh, who’s that?” asked Jaden.

          “Beats me,” said Syrus.

          “I take it you haven’t heard of me?” asked Weevil. I’m Weevil Underwood, the Regional Champion. Let’s see how you fair against my insect Deck.

          “Fine with me, now get your game on,” said Jaden.

“I’ll start with Chainsaw Insect (2400 ATK) in Attack Mode,” said Weevil.

         “That’s one powerful monster ya got there,” said Jaden. By the way, the name’s Jaden Yuki.

“Why thank you,” said Weevil. Now then, I play Insect Barrier, preventing all Insect-Type monsters on your field from attacking. Finally, I set 1 card face-down. (Hand: 3 cards) Once my Parasite card is played, there will be no hopes of you winning this Duel!

“Alright, for my first move, I’m gonna Summon Elemental Hero Sparkman (Info) (1600 ATK) in Attack Mode,” said Jaden. Then, I play Spark Blaster (Info), which can only go to Sparkman. Next, I use its effect, allowing me to change the Battle Position of 1 of your monsters and I choose Chainsaw Insect.

         “Oh no! My monster has 0 DEF points!” said Weevil.

         “Sparkman, destroy Chainsaw Insect!” said Jaden.

“I activate DNA Surgery (Info)!” said Weevil.

         “Uh oh! I remember Wheeler using that card against me!” said Jaden. It changes the type of monster to the controller’s desire.

         “I don’t know who you’re talking about, but yes that’s exactly how this card works and I choose Insects!” said Weevil.

         “I throw down a face-down and end my turn,” said Jaden. (Hand: 3 cards)

        “I switch Chainsaw Insect to Attack Mode,” said Weevil. Then, I Summon Insect Knight (Info) (1900 ATK) in Attack Mode. Insect Knight, destroy Sparkman!

“I activate Negate Attack (Info)!” said Jaden. Just like its name says, your attack is negated.

         “No matter. You cannot attack as long as DNA Surgery and Insect Barrier remain active,” said Weevil. I end my turn. (Hand: 3 cards)

“I Summon Elemental Hero Bubbleman (Info) (1200 DEF) in Defense Mode,” said Jaden. Then, I throw down 2 face-downs and end my turn. (Hand: 1 card)

“I Tribute my 2 monsters for Insect Queen (Info) (2200 ATK) in Attack Mode,” said Weevil. As long as she’s in play, she gains 200 ATK points for every Insect-Type monster on the field. Insect Queen’s ATK rises to 2800. That’s not all, she also Summons an Insect Token at the turn’s end after she destroys a monster in battle. Insect Queen, destroy Bubbleman!

“I activate Hero Ring (Info),” said Jaden. With this card out, the Elemental Hero I choose cannot be attacked by monsters with an ATK of 1900 or greater and I choose Bubbleman!

         “I end my turn,” said Weevil. (Hand: 3 cards)

“I play Elemental Hero Avian (Info) (1000 DEF) in Defense Mode,” said Jaden. Insect Queen’s ATK rises to 3000. Then, I throw down a face-down and end my turn. (Hand: 0 cards)

         “Insect Queen, destroy Avian!” said Weevil.

“I activate Mirror Force (Info)!” said Jaden. Your monsters in Attack Mode are destroyed!

Dimitri’s Kaiba Deck (Part 1)

Previously...

        "My draw," said Titan. *Infernalqueen’s ATK rises to 5900.* Infernalqueen, destroy Bladedge!

"I activate the Trap Card Edge Hammer!" I get to select 1 monster on the field and destroy it and the controller takes damage equal to the ATK of that monster but first, I must Tribute Bladedge. I Tribute Bladedge, therefore, your Infernalqueen is now destroyed and you take 5900 points of damage!

“Not unless I roll a 2 or 5,” said Titan. I activate Infernalqueen’s ability once again. What? It can be, a 3? *Infernalqueen is destroyed and Titan’s LP drops to 0.*

“That’s game!” said Jaden.

“That was a close one,” said Syrus.

“Nooooo!" said Titan as he slips into the shaodws. *Elsewhere in Battle City...*

"I may have lost to Yami but I won't lose against Seto Kaiba," said Dimitri. My Deck has been copied perfectly, including his Blue-Eyes White Dragons. *Meanwhile, at Kaiba Corp Headquarters...*

“Seto, it appears, you have e-mail,” said Mokuba.

“From whom?” asked Kaiba.

“I don’t know, it just says anonymous,” said Mokuba.

"Just show me the e-mail," said Kaiba. *The e-mail appears on screen.* I'll find this person! Let's go, Mokuba. 3 hours later...

“So, you found me,” said Dimitri.

“Let’s get this Duel over with!” said Kaiba. I have a company to run.

“You mean I have a company to run,” said Dimitri.

“Who are you?” asked Kaiba.

“Seto Kaiba,” said Dimitri.

“Yeah right, you’re nothing but an imposter!” said Kaiba.

“If I wasn’t Seto Kaiba, would I have these?” asked Dimitri.

“Blue-Eyes White Dragons!” said Kaiba. Those are fakes, there are only 3 in the world and I have them all.

“Apparently you don’t,” said Dimitri.

“Let’s Duel!” said Kaiba. I’ll start. I Summon La Jin the Mystical Genie of the Lamp (Info) (1800 ATK) in Attack Mode. Then, I set 2 cards face-down and end my turn. (Hand: 3 cards)

"I Summon Lord of D. (Info) (1200 ATK) in Attack Mode," said Dimitri. As long as he stays on the field, all Dragons cannot be designated as a target by Spell, Trap or monster effects. Then I play The Flute of Summoning Dragon (Info), letting me Summon up to 2 Dragon-Type monsters from my hand and I Summon 2 Blue-Eyes White Dragons (Info) (3000 ATK each) in Attack Mode! Blue-Eyes 1, destroy La Jin! La Jin is destroyed and Kaiba’s LP drops to 6800. Second Blue-Eyes, attack directly!

"I activate Shrink (Info)!" said Kaiba. Your monster loses half its strength. Blue-Eyes 2’s ATK drops to 1500 and Kaiba’s LP drops to 5300.

"I set 1 card face-down and end my turn," said Dimitri. (Hand: 1 card) Blue-Eyes 2’s ATK returns to 3000.

“I Summon Vorse Raider (Info) (1900 ATK) in Attack Mode,” said Kaiba. Vorse Raider, attack! Destroy Lord of D.!

 Titan’s Archfiend Deck (Part 3)

Previously...

“I Summon Infernalqueen Archfiend (900 ATK) in Attack Mode,” said Titan. Tempest, attack directly!

“Now I activate Mirror Gate!” said Jaden. Your Tempest and Infernalqueen switch places and the battle continues normally.

“I activate Infernalqueen’s ability,” said Titan. I roll 1 die and if the result is 2 or 5, your Mirror Gate is negated. Titan tosses the die. It’s a 5, so much for Mirror Gate. Mirror Gate is negated. Tempest, attack Jaden directly! *Jaden’s LP drops to 2400.* Infernalqueen, direct attack! *Jaden’s LP drops to 1500.* Soon, the shadows will devour you! There’s no escape from the Shadow Realm! It’s your turn! (Hand: 2 cards)

“I draw,” said Jaden.

“Now, thanks to Infernalqueen’s other ability, any Archfiend I desire gains 1000 ATK points during our Standby Phases and the monster I choose is Infernalqueen Archfiend! Infernalqueen’s ATK rises to 1900.

“First, by your card’s effect, you lose 800 points,” said Jaden. Your monster also gains 1000 ATK points by its effect. Titan’s LP drops to 4200 and Infernal Queen’s ATK rises to 2900. Next, I activate Pot of Greed (Info), allowing me draw 2 cards. Then, I play De-Fusion (Info), returning Tempest to my Fusion Deck and Special Summoning Bubbleman (Info) (800 ATK), Avian (Info) (1000 ATK) and Sparkman (Info) (1600 ATK) back to my field. Falling Down is destroyed. Next, I Tribute Bubbleman and Avian for Elemental Hero Bladedge (Info) (1800 DEF) in Defense Mode. Then, I switch Sparkman to Defense Mode and end my turn. (Hand: 0 cards)

“My turn,” said Titan. Infernalqueen’s ATK rises to 3900.

“This is so not good,” said Chumley. Infernalqueen’s the strongest monster out right now with 3900 ATK points!

“Infernalqueen, destroy his Sparkman!” said Titan. Sparkman is destroyed. There’s nothing left for you to do except give in to the shadows! I end my turn. (Hand: 3 cards)

“I don’t think so,” said Jaden. As long as I have LP, I’m not givin’ up! I draw! Infernalqueen’s ATK rises to 4900. I throw down a face-down and end my turn. (Hand: 0 cards)

“My draw,” said Titan. Infernalqueen’s ATK rises to 5900. Infernalqueen, destroy Bladedge!

“I activate the Trap Card Edge Hammer (Info)!” said Jaden. I get to select 1 monster on the field and destroy it and the controller takes damage equal to the ATK of that monster but first, I must Tribute Bladedge. I Tribute Bladedge, therefore, your Infernalqueen is now destroyed and you lose 5900 points of damage!

“Not unless I roll a 2 or 5,” said Titan. I activate Infernalqueen’s ability once again. What, it can be, a 3? Infernalqueen is destroyed and Titan’s LP drops to 0.

“That’s game!” said Jaden.

“That was a close one,” said Syrus.

“Noooooo!” said Titan as he slips into the shadows. Elsewhere in Battle City...

“I may have lost to Yami, but I won’t lose against Seto Kaiba,” said Dimitri. My Deck has been copied perfectly, including his Blue-Eyes White Dragons. Meanwhile, at Kaiba Corp Headquarters...

“Seto, it appears, you have e-mail,” said Mokuba.

“From whom?” asked Kaiba.

“I don’t know, it just says anonymous,” said Mokuba.

“Just show me the e-mail,” said Kaiba. The e-mail appears on screen. I’ll find this person!
