Featured Duels

Playmaker vs. Prototype Ai-A

Duel continues from the previous episode.

Turn 2: Playmaker

Playmaker activates the effect of "Dual Assembloom" in his GY, banishing "Linkslayer" and "Dot Scaper" in his GY to Special Summon with its ATK halved (2800 → 1400/1000). As "Dot Scaper" was banished, Playmaker activates its effect to Special Summon it (0/2100). Playmaker then activates the effect of "Cynet Defrag" in his GY, paying half his LP to Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Cyberse monster in his GY in Defense Position and equipping "Cynet Defrag" to that monster (Playmaker: 4000 → 2000 LP). He Special Summons "Flick Clown". As Playmaker has no cards in his hand, he activates the effect of "Flick Clown", paying 1000 LP to draw a card (Playmaker: 2000 → 1000 LP).

Blue Angel vs. Prototype Ai-B

The Duel is conducted as a Speed Duel.

Turn 1: Blue Angel

Blue Angel activates the Field Spell "Trickstar Light Stage". As it was activated, Blue Angel activates the effect of "Light Stage" to add 1 "Trickstar" monster from her deck to her hand. She adds "Trickstar Lilybell" to her hand. As "Lilybell" was added to her hand by a method other than drawing, Blue Angel activates its effect to Special Summon it.
