Synopsis
Pegasus greets the audience and congratulates them on their success at participating in the 2013 North American Nationals. Kaiba emerges and boasts of his Blue-Eyes Deck over anyone else’s, doubting joey. Pegasus then challenges Kaiba to duel someone in the audience, and Kaiba resultingly selects Pegasus as an opponent. Pegasus agrees and asks Billy Brake to come onstage to lend a deck, who then offers among the infamously highest meta decks in the March 2013 format: Dragon Ruler, Prophecy, Evilswarm, Wind-Up, Inzektor, Fire Fist. Pegasus selects Wind-Ups, citing their toy-like design to carry the same playful nature as the cartoons he admires.
On his first turn, Pegasus uses the swarming power of the Wind-Ups to Xyz Summon “Adreus, Keeper of Armageddon”, much to Kaiba’s astonishment. In response, Kaiba begins activating cards from “Structure Deck: Saga of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon”. Pegasus begins to protest the exclusive cards are not yet released, but Kaiba flaunts how his wealth and connections provided him with them almost immediately. With “Dragon Shrine” and “Silver Roar”, Kaiba summons the first of his iconic “Blue-Eyes White Dragons”, only for it to be banished by “Bottomless Trap Hole”.
Kaiba compliments the strength of the decks of the World Championship Qualifiers, citing Pegasus’ own lack of skill as his downfall. Pegasus swears to limit the production of “Castle of Dragon Souls” to prevent further combos with “Chaos Emperor Dragon”. Pegasus states he will remain for the rest of the tournament to crown the winner of the tournament; Kaiba, having Kaibacorp to run, has no time to stay.
