"Dark Meister" is the one hundred and ninth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!! anime. It first aired in Japan on May 19, 2024.

Someone has awakened in the dark vortex filled with dark matter. The man ends up in the Dark Matter Empire somehow... He is then brought to the castle, where he receives a Duel Disk and a Deck from the Dark Meister, the ruler of the empire. The two then have a conversation through a Rush Duel.

Featured Duel: Zuwijo zir Velgear vs Dark Meister

The Duel is conducted as a Rush Duel.

Turn 1: Zuwijo
Zuwijo's hand contains "Voidvelgr Hecatoncheir", "Voidvelgr Kataphraktos", "Voidvelgr Peltast", "Voidvelgr Hoplites" and "Voidvelgr Pale Rider". Zuwijo Normal Summons "Kataphraktos" (1000/1000) and "Peltast" (0/1500). As "Kataphraktos" was Normal Summoned this turn and Zuwijo has a face-up DARK Attribute monster other than it on his field, he activates its effect to send the top card of his Deck to the Graveyard, then if he sent a monster to the Graveyard this way, he can add a Level 8 Galaxy Type monster from his Graveyard to his hand. Zuwijo sends "Voidvelgr Requiem" from the top of his Deck to the Graveyard, then adds "Requiem" from his Graveyard to his hand. Zuwijo Tributes "Kataphraktos" and "Peltast" to Tribute Summon "Requiem" (2500/2000). Zuwijo activates the effect of "Requiem", sending the top card of his Deck to the Graveyard to increase its ATK by the number of face-up DARK Attribute monsters on his field x 300 until the end of this turn, then it gains additional 600 ATK until the end of this turn if Dark Meister has a face-up LIGHT Attribute monster on her field. Zuwijo sends "Universtorm" from the top of his Deck to the Graveyard ("Requiem": 2500/2000 → 2800/2000). Zuwijo Normal Summons "Pale Rider" (1600/0) and "Hoplites" (1500/100). Zuwijo Tributes "Pale Rider" and "Hoplites" to Tribute Summon "Hecatoncheir" (2000/2600). Zuwijo activates the effect of "Hecatoncheir", changing it from Attack Position to face-up Defense Position to inflict 500 damage to Dark Meister, then if Zuwijo has a face-up Level 8 monster on his field, he can change the battle position of a face-up Galaxy Type monster on his field. Zuwijo changes "Hecatoncheir" to Defense Position (Dark Meister: 4000 → 3500 LP). As Zuwijo ends his turn, the ATK of "Requiem" returns to normal ("Requiem": 2800/2000 → 2500/2000).

Turn 2: Dark Meister
Dark Meister's hand contains "Fusion", "Dark Matter Dragon", "Dark Matter Cold Drake" and two copies of "Dark Matter Power Lizard". Dark Meister Sets "Power Lizard". Dark Meister Normal Summons "Cold Drake" (1000/1300). As "Cold Drake" was Normal Summoned this turn and Dark Meister has a face-down monster on her field, she activates its effect to send cards from the top of her Deck to the Graveyard equal to the number of monsters on Zuwijo's field, then she can Special Summon a DARK Attribute Galaxy Type monster with 1300 DEF from among the cards sent to her field in face-up Defense Position or face-down Defense Position. Dark Meister sends "Dark Matter Parallel Pod" and "Power Lizard" from the top of her Deck to the Graveyard, then Special Summons "Power Lizard" (1300/1300) from her Graveyard in Defense Position. Dark Meister Tributes "Cold Drake" and "Power Lizard" to Tribute Summon "Dragon" (2500/1300). Dark Meister Sets "Power Lizard". Dark Meister Sets "Fusion" in her Spell & Trap Zone. As "Dragon" was Normal Summoned or Special Summoned during this Main Phase, Dark Meister activates its effect, sending the top card of her Deck to the Graveyard to destroy face-up Level 8 or lower monsters on Zuwijo's field up to the number of face-down monsters on Dark Meister's field. Dark Meister sends "Dark Matter Reactive Cylinder" from the top of her Deck to the Graveyard and destroys "Hecatoncheir" and "Requiem". "Dragon" attacks Zuwijo directly (Zuwijo: 4000 → 1500 LP).

Turn 3: Zuwijo
