Duel Recap

• 3rd Duel of the Battle City Quarter-Finals.
• Duel takes place in the Shadow Realm. When a monster is destroyed, its owner will lose pieces of their memory: Mai loses Téa.
• Mai gets hold of "The Winged Dragon of Ra", but can't use it because her blood is not part of the Royal Egyptians and therefore, can't read the ancient text on the card.

Normal Summons "Dunames Dark Witch" in Attack Position (1800/1050).

Turn 2: Yami Marik

Sets a card (NOTE: in the Japanese version, Kaiba explains to Mokuba that the set card must be "Jam Defender", which allows Yami Marik to switch the target of all Mai's attacks to "Revival Jam". In the English dub, Yugi thinks this but doesn't say it.).
