In order to obtain the program that removes the virus that infected Skye, Yusaku commences a Duel against Varis, with the AI, who is also known as Ai, as a wager. Using the Link Monsters he obtained in his previous Duels, Playmaker was able to destroy Varis's "Cracking Dragon". However, the back-and-forth Duel between them takes a new turn as Varis activates a shocking Skill!
Contents
Featured Duel: Playmaker vs. Varis
The Duel is conducted as a Speed Duel.
Turn 1: Varis
Varis pays 1000 LP to activate the Continuous Spell Card "Dragonoid Generator" (Varis: 4000 → 3000 LP). During the Main Phase, Varis activates the effect of "Dragonoid Generator", Special Summoning a "Dragonoid Token" in Attack Position, but Varis cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn, also during the End Phase Playmaker Special Summons a "Dragonoid Token" to his field in Attack Position. He activates this effect twice, Special Summoning two "Dragonoid Tokens" (300/300). Varis Tributes two "Dragonoid Tokens" to Tribute Summon "Cracking Dragon" (3000/0). During the End Phase, Playmaker Special Summons two Level 1 "Dragonoid Tokens" (300/300) to his field in Attack Position, one at a time. As Playmaker Normal or Special Summoned exactly one monster while "Cracking Dragon" is on the field, Varis activates its effect, reducing that monster's ATK equal to its Level times 200 until the end of this turn, then inflicting damage to Playmaker equal to the ATK lost by this effect. He activates this effect each time Playmaker Special Summoned a "Dragonoid Token" (both "Dragonoid Tokens": 300 → 100 ATK, Playmaker: 4000 → 3600 LP).
Turn 2: Playmaker
Playmaker sets a "Dragonoid Token" in the Link Arrow to Link Summon "Link Spider" (1000/↓) to the Extra Monster Zone. Playmaker activates the effect of "Link Spider", Special Summoning a Level 4 or lower Normal Monster from his hand to his zone "Link Spider" points to. He Special Summons the Level 2 "Bitron" (200/2000) to the zone the bottom-center Link Arrow of "Link Spider" points to. As Playmaker Normal or Special Summoned exactly one monster while "Cracking Dragon" is on the field, Varis activates its effect, reducing that monster's ATK equal to its Level times 200 until the end of this turn, then inflicting damage to Playmaker equal to the ATK lost by this effect ("Bitron": 200 → 0 ATK, Playmaker: 3600 → 3400 LP). As Playmaker controls a Cyberse monster, he Special Summons the Level 3 "Backup Secretary" (1200/800) from his hand by its own effect. As Playmaker Special Summoned exactly one monster while "Cracking Dragon" is on the field, Varis activates its effect ("Backup Secretary": 1200 → 600 ATK, Playmaker: 3400 → 2800 LP). Playmaker sets "Bitron" and "Backup Secretary" in the Link Arrows to Link Summon "Honeybot" (1900/←→) to the zone the bottom-center Link Arrow of "Link Spider" points to. Playmaker sets "Link Spider" and the Link-2 "Honeybot" to Link Summon "Decode Talker" (2300/↙↑↘) to the Extra Monster Zone. The effect of "Decode Talker" increases its ATK by 500 for each monster it points to. It points to a "Dragonoid Token" ("Decode Talker": 2300 → 2800 ATK). Playmaker Tributes a "Dragonoid Token" to Tribute Summon the Level 5 "Capacitor Stalker" (2000/1000) to the zone the bottom-left Link Arrow of "Decode Talker" points to. As "Capacitor Stalker" was Normal Summoned, Playmaker activates its effect, increasing a Cyberse monster's ATK by 800 while "Capacitor Stalker" is face-up on the field. He targets "Decode Talker" ("Decode Talker": 2800 → 3600 ATK). As Playmaker Normal Summoned exactly one monster while "Cracking Dragon" is on the field, Varis activates its effect ("Capacitor Stalker": 2000 → 1000 ATK, Playmaker: 2800 → 1800 LP). Playmaker Sets a card. "Decode Talker" attacks and destroys "Cracking Dragon" (Varis: 3000 → 2400 LP). "Capacitor Stalker" attacks Varis directly (Varis: 2400 → 1400 LP).
Turn 3: Varis
Varis Sets a card. As Playmaker controls a Link Monster, Varis Special Summons "Gateway Dragon" (1600/1400) from his hand by its own effect. Varis activates the effect of "Gateway Dragon", Special Summoning a Level 4 or lower DARK Dragon monster from his hand. He Special Summons the Level 2 "Sniffer Dragon" (800/400). As "Sniffer Dragon" was Normal or Special Summoned, Varis activates its effect, adding a "Sniffer Dragon" from his Deck to his hand. He adds and subsequently Normal Summons "Sniffer Dragon" (800/400). Varis sets "Sniffer Dragon" and "Gateway Dragon" in the Link Arrows to Link Summon "Twin Triangle Dragon" (1200/↓→) to the Extra Monster Zone. As "Twin Triangle Dragon" was Link Summoned, Varis activates its effect, paying 500 LP to Special Summon a Level 5 or higher monster from his to his zone "Twin Triangle Dragon" points to, but that monster cannot attack this turn and has its effects negated (Varis: 1400 → 900 LP). He Special Summons the Level 8 "Cracking Dragon" (3000/0) to the zone the bottom-center Link Arrow of "Twin Triangle Dragon" points to.
At this point, Varis enters the Data Storm. As Varis's LP is 1000 or less, he activates his Skill "Storm Access", accessing a Cyberse Link Monster at random from a nearby Data Storm and adding it to his Extra Deck. He obtains "Topologic Bomber Dragon" and adds it to his Extra Deck.
Varis sets the Link-2 "Twin Triangle Dragon", "Cracking Dragon", and "Sniffer Dragon" in the Link Arrows to Link Summon "Topologic Bomber Dragon" (3000/↑↙↓↘) to the Extra Monster Zone. During the Main Phase, Varis activates the effect of "Dragonoid Generator", Special Summoning a "Dragonoid Token" in Attack Position, but Varis cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn, also during the End Phase Playmaker Special Summons a "Dragonoid Token" to his field in Attack Position. He Special Summons a "Dragonoid Token" (300/300) to a zone "Topologic Bomber Dragon" points to. As another monster was Special Summoned to a zone a Link Monster points to, while "Topologic Bomber Dragon" is on the field, its effect activates, destroying all monsters in the Main Monster Zones, also Varis's other monsters cannot attack for the rest of this turn. A "Dragonoid Token" and "Capacitor Stalker" are destroyed ("Decode Talker": 3600 → 3100 → 2300 ATK). As "Capacitor Stalker" in the Monster Zone is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the GY, its effect activates, inflicting 800 damage to each player (Playmaker: 1800 → 1000 LP, Varis: 900 → 100 LP).
"Topologic Bomber Dragon" attacks and destroys "Decode Talker" (Playmaker: 1000 → 300 LP). After damage calculation, as "Topologic Bomber Dragon" attacked Playmaker's monster, its effect activates, inflicting damage to Playmaker equal to that monster's original ATK.
Duel continues in the next episode.
