Team 5D's and Team Unicorn's Turbo Duel was a Duel in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime between Team 5D's and Team Unicorn in the preliminary round of the World Racing Grand Prix.

The Duel[edit]

Jack Atlas vs. Andre[edit]

Turn 1: Andre
(Andre's SPC: 0; Jack's SPC 0)
Andre draws "Uni-Horned Familiar" and subsequently Normal Summons it (0/1000) in Defense Position. He then removes from play "Speed Spell - The End of the Storm" from his hand to Special Summon "Monoceros" from his hand (1000/1000) in Defense Position. Andre then places 2 cards face-down in his Spell & Trap Card Zones and ends his turn.

Turn 2: Jack Atlas
(Andre's SPC: 1; Jack's SPC 1)
Jack draws. Since Andre controls monsters but Jack doesn't, Jack Special Summons "Vice Dragon" from his hand (2000/2400) in Attack Position, but its original ATK and DEF are halved ("Vice Dragon": 2000 → 1000/2400 → 1200). He then Normal Summons "Dark Resonator" (1300/300) in Attack Position. Jack then tunes his two monsters together to Synchro Summon "Red Dragon Archfiend" (3000/2000) in Attack Position. "Red Dragon Archfiend" attacks "Uni-Horned Familiar", but Andre activates "Uni-Horned Familiar's" effect, removing "Monoceros" from play to remove "Uni-Horned Familiar" from play and force "Red Dragon Archfiend" to attack. "Red Dragon Archfiend" attacks Andre directly, but Andre activates "Different Dimension Barrier - Lost Force" to negate the attack and inflict damage to Jack equal to the ATK of "Red Dragon Archfiend" (Jack 4000 → 1000 Life Points). Jack places 3 cards face-down in his Spell & Trap Card Zones and ends his turn.

Turn 3: Andre
(Andre's SPC: 2; Jack's SPC 2)
Andre's hand contains "Dimension Trap". Andre draws. During the Standby Phase, "Uni-Horned Familiar" returns to the field (1000/1000) in Defense Position via its own effect. Andre then Special Summons "Monoceros" to the field (0/1000) in Defense Position to Special Summon "Unicorn Knight" from his hand (1800/900) in Attack Position. Andre the tunes "Monoceros" with "Uni-Horned Familiar" to Synchro Summon "Thunder Unicorn" ([2200/1800) in Attack Position. Since "Monoceros" was sent to the Graveyard for a Synchro Summon, its effect activates, allowing Andre to Special Summon "Uni-Horned Familiar" from the Graveyard (0/1000) in Defense Position. Andre activates the effect of "Thunder Unicorn", reducing the ATK of "Red Dragon Archfiend" by 500 for every monster Andre controls except "Thunder Unicorn". Andre controls two other monsters, so "Red Dragon Archfiend" loses 1000 ATK ("Red Dragon Archfiend": 3000 → 2000/2000). Since Andre activated the effect of "Thunder Unicorn", no monster besides "Thunder Unicorn" can attack this turn. "Thunder Unicorn" attacks and destroys "Red Dragon Archfiend" (Jack 1000 → 800 Life Points). Andre places 1 card face-down in his Spell & Trap Card Zones and ends his turn.

Turn 4: Jack Atlas
(Andre's SPC: 3; Jack's SPC 3)
Jack draws. He then Summons "Mad Archfiend" (1800/0) in Attack Position. Jack then activates "Powerful Rebirth" to Special Summon "Dark Resonator" from his Graveyard (1300/300) in Attack Position with its ATK and DEF increased by 100 and its Level by 1 ("Dark Resonator": 1300 → 1400/300 → 400; Level 3 → 4). He then activates "Rage Resynchro", allowing Jack to send his two monsters to the Graveyard and Special Summon a Synchro Monster from his Graveyard that has a Level equal to the total Levels of the sent monsters. Jack chooses to Special Summon "Red Dragon Archfiend" (3000/2000) in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Rage Resynchro", "Red Dragon Archfiend" gains 500 more ATK ("Red Dragon Archfiend": 3000 → 3500/2000). "Red Dragon Archfiend" attacks "Thunder Unicorn", but Andre activates "Dimension Trap", removing "Uni-Horned Familiar" and "Different Dimension Barrier - Lost Force" from play in order to activate the effect of "Different Dimension Barrier - Lost Force" as the effect of "Dimension Trap". Jack activates"Overpower", negating the effect of "Dimension Trap" and destroying it. The attack continues, destroying "Thunder Unicorn" (Andre 4000 → 2700 Life Points). Andre activates "Parallel Selection", allowing him to add "Speed Spell - The End of the Storm" from the Removed from Play Zone to his hand and draw one card.

Turn 5: Andre
(Andre's SPC: 4; Jack's SPC 4)
Andre draws. He then activates the effect of "Speed World 2", reducing his Speed Counters by 4 (Andre's SPC 4 → 0) to inflict 800 damage to Jack for each Speed Spell he has in his hand. Andre reveals "The End of the Storm", so Jack takes 800 damage (Jack 800 → 0 Life Points).

Andre wins.

As per the rulings of the WRPG, it goes to Andre's End Phase. During the End Phase "Red Dragon Archfiend" is destroyed due to the last effect of "Rage Resynchro". While Jack struggles to get up and pass the baton to Akiza, Andre takes this moment to take laps and gain Speed Counters for each full lap. He takes 12 laps, giving him twelve Speed Counters (Andre's SPC 0 → 12). Andre then proceeds in taking more laps and for each full lap he makes, Jack loses one Speed Counter. If Jack's SPC becomes 0 this way, Team 5D's will automatically lose. Andre takes three laps, removing three of Jack's Speed Counters (Jack's SPC 4 → 1). Jack, at the last second, gives the baton to Akiza, allowing her to move forward and Duel Andre. Akiza makes it to the corner before Andre, so the Duel between them can proceed as normal.

As the WRGP system works like a survival match, Andre starts off with 2700 Life Points and 12 Speed Counters, whereas Akiza starts off with 4000 Life Points and 1 Speed Counter. The field also stays from the previous duel, so Andre still has his field from his duel with Jack Atlas, while Jack left no cards on his field for Akiza to use.

Akiza Izinski vs. Andre[edit]

Turn 6: Akiza Izinski
(Akiza's SPC 2; Andre's SPC 12)
Akiza draws "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis". Akiza's hand contains "Glow-Up Bulb", "Witch of the Black Rose", "Copy Plant", "Star Siphon", and "Phoenixian Seed". Akiza summons "Phoenixian Seed" (800/0) in Attack Position. She then sends "Phoenixian Seed" to the Graveyard to Special Summon "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" from her hand (2200/0) in Attack Position. "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" then attacks and destroys "D.D. Unicorn Knight" (Andre 2700 → 2300 Life Points). After damage calculation, the effect of "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" activates, destroying it. The second effect of "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" then activates, inflicting 800 damage to Andre (Andre 2300 → 1500 Life Points). Akiza sets one card. On Akiza's End Phase, she removes from play "Phoenixian Seed" to Special Summon "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" from the Graveyard (2200/0) in Defense Position. Akiza intends to have Andre destroy "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" with either a monster or his "Speed Spell - The End of the Storm", so she can activate the second effect of "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis".

Turn 7: Andre
(Akiza's SPC 3; Andre's SPC 12)
Andre's hand contains "Unibird", "Speed Spell - The End of the Storm", and "Dimension Equilibrium". Andre draws "Speed Spell - Dash Pilfer" and subsequently activates it, taking control of "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" until the End Phase. Next he summons "Unibird" (100/600) in Attack Position. He then activates the effect of "Unibird", removing it and "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" from play to Special Summon a Synchro Monster from the Graveyard with a Level equal to or less than the combined Levels of the two removed monsters. Andre chooses to Special Summon "Thunder Unicorn" (2200/1800) in Attack Position. "Thunder Unicorn" attacks Akiza directly (Akiza 4000 → 1800 Life Points). Andre then places 1 card face-down in his Spell & Trap Card Zone and ends his turn.

Turn 8: Akiza Izinski
(Akiza's SPC 4; Andre's SPC 12)
Akiza draws "Speed Spell - Angel Baton". She then summons "Witch of the Black Rose (1700/1200) in Attack Position. Akiza then activates the effect of "Witch of the Black Rose", drawing one card. She draws "Rose Fairy". Since Akiza added "Rose Fairy" from her Deck to her hand via a card effect, its effect activates, allowing Akiza to Special Summon "Rose Fairy" (600/1200) from her hand in Attack Position. Next, she activates "Speed Spell - Angel Baton", drawing 2 cards("Half Counter" and "Wicked Rebirth") and sending one card ("Glow-Up Bulb") from her hand to the Graveyard. Akiza then tunes "Rose Fairy" with "Witch of the Black Rose" to Synchro Summon "Black Rose Dragon" (2400/1800) in Attack Position. Akiza then targets "Black Rose Dragon" to activate the Trap Card "Star Siphon", Special Summoning a "Siphon Token" (0/0) in Attack Position and making its Level the same as the Level of "Black Rose Dragon" (Siphon Token: Level 1 → 7) while making the Level of "Black Rose Dragon" 1 ("Black Rose Dragon": Level 7 → 1). Akiza then sends the top card of her Deck ("Dark Verger") to the Graveyard to Special Summon "Glow-Up Bulb" from the Graveyard (100/100) in Attack Position. Akiza then tunes the Siphon Token with "Glow-Up Bulb" to Synchro Summon "Stardust Dragon" (2500/2000) in Attack Position. "Black Rose Dragon" attacks and destroys "Thunder Unicorn" (Andre 1500 → 1300 Life Points). "Stardust Dragon" attacks Andre directly, but Andre activates "Dimension Equilibrium", ending the Battle Phase, removing "Black Rose Dragon" from play, and Special Summoning "Thunder Unicorn" from the Graveyard (2200/1800) in Attack Position. Akiza places 2 cards face-down in her Spell & Trap Card Zones and ends her turn.

Turn 9: Andre
(Akiza's SPC 5; Andre's SPC 12)
Andre draws "Speed Spell - Speed Energy" and subsequently activates it, increasing "Thunder Unicorn's" ATK by 200 for every Speed Counter he has until the End Phase. He has twelve, so "Thunder Unicorn" gains 2400 ATK ("Thunder Unicorn": 2200 → 4600/1800) until the End Phase. "Thunder Unicorn" then attacks "Stardust Dragon", but Akiza activates "Half Counter", allowing "Stardust Dragon" to gain half of "Thunder Unicorn's" original ATK ("Stardust Dragon": 2500 → 3600/2000). The attack continues, destroying "Stardust Dragon" (Akiza 1800 → 800 Life Points). Andre activates "Speed World 2's" effect, removing 4 Speed Counters (Andre's SPC 12 → 8) to deal 800 damage to Akiza for each Speed Spell in his hand. Andre reveals "Speed Spell - The End of the Storm", so Akiza will take 800 damage, but Akiza activates "Wicked Rebirth", paying 800 Life Points (Akiza 800 → 0 Life Points) to Special Summon a Synchro Monster from her Graveyard with its effects negated. Akiza chooses to Special Summon "Stardust Dragon" (2500/2000) in Attack Position. (In the real game, a player cannot pay a cost equal to or more than their Life Points, therefore Akiza would not be able to activate "Wicked Rebirth". However, since Yusei was next in line to duel, with his own set of 4000 Life Points, Akiza was able to pay all of her remaining Life Points, since the team overall would not lose all its Life Points.)

Andre wins.

Due to the ruling of the WRGP, it goes immediately to Andre's End Phase. The effect of "Speed Spell - Speed Energy" wears off ("Thunder Unicorn": 4600 → 2200/1800). Akiza then passes the baton to Yusei who proceeds in Dueling Andre with all the cards that Akiza had on her hand and field.

Yusei Fudo vs. Andre[edit]

By WRGP rules, the field, Speed Counters, and the victor's Life Points are retained from the previous duel. Andre starts with 1300 Life Points and 8 Speed Counters, and Yusei starts with 4000 Life Points and 5 Speed Counters. Andre retains his field from the previous duel, and Yusei starts with Stardust Dragon and Wicked Rebirth, which was equipped to Stardust Dragon, which were left over by Akiza.

Turn 10: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 6; Andre's SPC 9)
Yusei draws "Max Warrior" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1800/800) in Attack Position (Yusei's Deck 35 → 34). Yusei then attacks and destroys "Thunder Unicorn" with "Stardust Dragon" (Andre 1300 → 1000 Life Points). "Max Warrior" then attacks Andre directly, but Andre activates "Thunder Unicorn's" effect, Special Summoning it (2200/1800) in Attack Position. A replay occurs and Yusei uses "Max Warrior" to attack "Thunder Unicorn" instead. Due to the effect of Max Warrior", it gains 400 ATK during the Damage Step only ("Max Warrior": 1800 → 2200/800). Both battling monsters are then destroyed in a Double KO. Yusei places 1 card face-down in his Spell & Trap Card Zone and ends his turn.

Turn 11: Andre
(Yusei's SPC 7; Andre's SPC 10)
Andre draws. He then Sets two cards in his Spell & Trap Card Zones and ends his turn.

Turn 12: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 8; Andre's SPC 11)
Yusei draws (Yusei's Deck 34 → 33). He then Special Summons "Card Breaker" (100/900) in Attack Position by destroying Andre's set "Speed Spell - The End of the Storm". Andre activates "Magic Charge", inflicting 2000 points of damage to both players (Yusei 4000 → 2000 Life Points) (Andre 1000 → 0 Life Points).

Yusei wins. Due to the WRGP rules, Breo takes Andre's place within the duel with 4000 Life Points, and keeps any cards and Speed Counters he had.

Yusei Fudo vs. Breo[edit]

Turn 13: Breo
(Yusei's SPC 9; Breo's SPC 12)
Breo draws. He then summons "Bicorn Re'em" (800/1600) in Defense Position. He then sets two cards in his Spell & Trap Card Zones and ends his turn.

Turn 14: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 10; Breo's SPC 12)
Yusei draws (Yusei's Deck 33 → 32). He then summons "Dash Warrior" (600/1200) in Attack Position. Yusei enters his Battle Phase. He then activates the effect of "Dash Warrior", tripling its ATK until the end of the Battle Phase ("Dash Warrior": 600 → 1800/1200). "Dash Warrior" attacks "Bicorn Re'em", but Breo activates "Negate Attack" to negate the attack and end the Battle Phase. The effect of "Dash Warrior" expires ("Dash Warrior": 1800 → 600/1200). Yusei then switches "Card Breaker" into Defense Position and ends his turn.

Turn 15: Breo
(Yusei's SPC 11; Breo's SPC 12)
Breo draws "Mine Mole" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1000/1200) in Attack Position. Breo then tunes his two monsters together to Synchro Summon "Voltic Bicorn" (2500/2000) in Attack Position. Since "Bicorn Re'em" was sent to the Graveyard for a Synchro Summon, its effect activates, forcing Yusei to send the top two cards of his Deck ("Reinforce Truth" and "Ghost Gardna") to the Graveyard (Yusei's Deck 32 → 30). Since "Mine Mole" was sent to the Graveyard as a Synchro Material Monster for the Synchro Summon of a Beast-type Synchro Monster, its effect activates, allowing Breo to draw one card. Breo then activates "Speed World 2's" effect, removing 10 Speed Counters (Breo's SPC 12 → 2) to destroy "Voltic Bicorn". This activates the effect of "Voltic Bicorn", forcing both players to send cards from the top of their Decks to the Graveyard equal to the Level of "Voltic Bicorn". "Voltic Bicorn" is Level 7, so both players send the top 7 cards of their Deck to the Graveyard (among them, Yusei loses "Fortress Warrior", "Zero Gardna" and "Scrubbed Raid") (Yusei's Deck 30 → 23). Breo sets 2 cards and ends his turn.

Turn 16: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 12; Breo's SPC 3)
Yusei's hand contains Summon Tax, Stronghold Guardian, Sonic Chick and Backup Warrior. Yusei draws "Speed Spell - Accelerate Draw "(Yusei's Deck 23 → 22) and subsequently activates it to draw 2 cards from his Deck (Yusei's Deck 22 → 20). "Stardust Dragon" attacks Breo directly (Breo 4000 → 1500 Life Points). Breo activates "Regretful Tuning", Special Summoning "Voltic Bicorn" from the Graveyard (2500/2000) in Attack Position. Yusei sets one card and ends his turn.

Turn 17: Breo
(Yusei's SPC 12; Breo's SPC 4)
Breo draws "Damage Lance". "Voltic Bicorn" attacks "Stardust Dragon", but Yusei activates "Synchro Striker Unit" to equip it to "Stardust Dragon" and increase its ATK by 1000 ("Stardust Dragon": 2500 → 3500/2000). Breo activates "Flattery" to increase "Voltic Bicorn's" ATK by the difference between "Stardust Dragon's" original ATK and current ATK ("Voltic Bicorn": 2500 → 3500/2000). Both battling monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. The effect of "Voltic Bicorn" activates, forcing both players to send the top 7 cards of their Decks to the Graveyard(one card for each Level Star "Voltic Bicorn" had) (among them, Breo loses "Nimble Momonga", "Blasting the Ruins", his second copy of "Mine Mole", and "Speed Spell - Overboost") (Yusei's Deck 20 → 13). Breo activates his face-down "Tuning Collapse", which makes Yusei send cards from the top of his Deck to the Graveyard equal to the Level of "Stardust Dragon". Stardust Dragon" was Level 8, so Yusei is forced to send the top 8 cards of his Deck to the Graveyard (among them, Yusei loses "Turret Warrior", "Speed Spell - Final Attack", "Starlight Road", and "Level Warrior") (Yusei's Deck 13 → 5). Breo sets 3 cards and ends his turn.

Turn 18: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 12; Breo's SPC 5)
Yusei draws "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow" (Yusei's Deck 5 → 4). Breo activates "Tricolor Illusion". Now Yusei's monsters are not allowed to attack. Also once during each of Yusei's turns, he must reveal the top card of his Deck and depending on the type of card, an appropriate effect will activate. If the card is a monster, it will be added to Yusei's hand, but Yusei must place another card in his hand on top of his Deck. If it's a Spell Card, it will be added to Yusei's hand. If it's a Trap Card, Yusei must discard it and one other card in his hand to the Graveyard. Yusei can, at any point during his Main Phase, send the top card of his Deck to the Graveyard to destroy "Tricolor Illusion". Breo intends for Yusei to destroy "Tricolor Illusion" with either its own effect or the effect of "Speed World 2"(because he believes Yusei is not a person who would gamble) which would allow him to activate his set "Destruction Trigger" which will force Yusei to send 5 cards from the top of his Deck to the Graveyard which will make Yusei lose due to Deck Out. Yusei's hand contains "Summon Tax", "Stronghold Guardian", "Sonic Chick", "Backup Warrior", "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow", and "Speed Spell - Speed Fusion". Yusei decides to use this effect. Yusei, to Breo's shock, activates the effect of "Tricolor Illusion" to reveal his top card (Yusei's Deck 4 → 3). It is "Junk Synchron", so he puts the "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow" in his hand on top of his Deck (Yuseis' Deck 3 → 4). Yusei Normal Summons "Junk Synchron" (1300/500) in Attack Position. Yusei then tunes "Card Breaker" and "Dash Warrior" with "Junk Synchron" to Synchro Summon "Junk Destroyer" (2600/2500) in Attack Position. Since "Junk Destroyer" was Synchro Summoned, its effect activates, destroying a number of cards Breo controls equal to the number of non-Tuner Monsters that were used to Synchro Summon "Junk Destroyer". Two non-Tuner monsters were used to Synchro Summon "Junk Destroyer", so two of Breo's cards are destroyed; both "Tricolor Illusion" and Breo's set "Destruction Trigger" are destroyed. "Junk Destroyer" attacks Breo directly, but Breo activates "Damage Lance" which reduces Junk Destroyer's ATK by 1000("Junk Destroyer": 2600 → 1600/2500) during damage calculation only and inflicts 1000 damage to Yusei (Yusei 2000 → 1000 Life Points). The attack continues (Breo 1500 → 0 Life Points). After damage calculation, the ATK of "Junk Destroyer" goes back to normal ("Junk Destroyer": 1600 → 2600/2500).

Yusei wins. Due to the WRGP rules, Jean takes Breo's place within the duel with 4000 lifepoints, and keeps any cards and Speed Counters he had.

Yusei Fudo vs. Jean[edit]

Turn 19: Jean
(Yusei's SPC 12; Jean's SPC 6)
Jean draws "Trident Warrior" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1800/1200) in Attack Position. The effect of "Trident Warrior" activates, allowing Jean to Special Summon "Delta Flyer" (1500/900) from his hand in Attack Position. Jean activates "Delta Flyer's" effect, increasing "Trident Warrior" Level by 1 ("Trident Warrior": Level 4 → 5). Jean then tunes his two monsters together to Synchro Summon "Lightning Tricorn" (2800/2000) in Attack Position. "Lightning Tricorn" attacks "Junk Destroyer", but Yusei activates the effect of "Shield Warrior" from his Graveyard, removing it from play to prevent "Junk Destroyer" from being destroyed in battle this turn, however Yusei still takes Battle Damage (Yusei 1000 → 800 Life Points). Jean activates "Speed World 2's" effect. removing 4 Speed Counters (Jean's SPC 6 → 2) to inflict 800 damage to Yusei for each Speed Spell in his hand. Jean reveals "Speed Spell - Tyrant Force", so Yusei takes 800 damage, but Yusei activates the effect of "Damage Eater" from his Graveyard, removing it and 1 card in his hand from play to negate the damage and increase his Life Points equal to the damage he would taken[Notes 1] (Yusei 800 → 1600 Life Points). Jean sets 2 cards ("Reanimation Wave" and "Superficial Peace") and ends his turn.

Turn 20: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 12; Jean's SPC 3)
Yusei draws "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow"(Yusei's Deck 4 → 3). He then activates "Speed World 2's" effect, removing 10 Speed Counters (Yusei's SPC 12 → 2) to destroy "Lightning Tricorn". "Junk Destroyer" attacks Jean directly, but Jean activates "Reanimation Wave" to halve the Battle Damage he takes (Jean 4000 → 2700 Life Points) and Special Summon "Lightning Tricorn" from the Graveyard at the end of the Damage Step (2800/2000) in Attack Position. Yusei summons "Sonic Chick" (300/300) in Defense Position and ends his turn.

Turn 21: Jean
(Yusei's SPC 3; Jean's SPC 4)
Jean draws "Thousand Crisscross". He then summons "Rhinotaurus" (1800/600) in Attack Position. "Lightning Tricorn" attacks and destroys "Junk Destroyer" (Yusei 1600 → 1400 Life Points). "Rhinotaurus" attacks and destroys "Sonic Chick". Since two of Yusei's monsters were destroyed in battle during the same Battle Phase, "Rhinotaurus" may attack twice during this Battle Phase. "Rhinotaurus" attacks Yusei directly, however Yusei activates "Harmony Crystal", removing from play "Junk Destroyer" and "Max Warrior" from his Graveyard to Special Summon "Stardust Dragon" from his Graveyard (2500/2000) in Attack Position. A replay occurs, and Jean chooses not to attack with "Rhinotaurus". Due to the last effect of "Harmony Crystal", Jean takes damage equal to half of "Stardust Dragon's" ATK (Jean 2700 → 1450). Jean sets 1 card face-down and ends his turn.

Turn 22: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 4; Jean's SPC 5)
Yusei's hand contains "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow", "Speed Spell - Speed Fusion", "Summon Tax", and "Stronghold Guardian". Yusei draws "Cosmic Blast" (Yusei's Deck 3 → 2). "Stardust Dragon" attacks and destroys "Rhinotaurus" (Jean 1450 → 750). Jean activates "Thousand Crisscross". Now when Jean's Life Points change, they will automatically become 1000. When this effect is used three times, "Thousand Crisscross" will be destroyed. As Jean's Life Points changed, the effect of "Thousand Crisscross" activates (Jean 750 → 1000). Yusei sets "Cosmic Blast" face-down and ends his turn. Yusei intends to activate "Cosmic Blast" when "Lightning Tricorn" attacks and destroys "Stardust Dragon".

Turn 23: Jean
(Yusei's SPC 5; Jean's SPC 6)
Jean draws. He then activates "Superficial Peace". Until the end of this turn, neither player can activate Spell or Trap Cards and no monsters can be destroyed in battle. "Lightning Tricorn" attacks "Stardust Dragon". Due to the effect of "Superficial Peace", "Stardust Dragon" is not destroyed, but Yusei still takes Battle Damage (Yusei 1400 → 1100). Since Yusei took damage this turn, the second effect of "Superficial Peace" activates, allowing Jean to destroy Yusei's set "Cosmic Blast" and draw one card. Jean then sets 2 cards face-down and ends his turn.

Turn 24: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 6; Jean's SPC 7)
Yusei draws "Synchron Explorer" and subsequently Normal Summons it (0/700) in Attack Position (Yusei's Deck 2 → 1). Yusei then activates the effect of "Synchron Explorer" to Special Summon "Junk Synchron" from his Graveyard (1300/500) in Attack Position with its effects negated. Yusei then tunes "Synchron Explorer" with "Junk Synchron" to Synchro Summon "Junk Warrior" (2300/1300) in Attack Position. Yusei then activates "Speed Spell - Speed Fusion" to fuse "Stardust Dragon" with "Junk Warrior" to Fusion Summon "Dragon Knight Draco-Equiste" (3200/2000) in Attack Position. "Dragon Knight Draco-Equiste" attacks and destroys "Lightning Tricorn". Jean activates "Return Damage", negating the Battle Damage he would take and inflicting damage to Yusei equal to the Battle Damage Jean would have taken, but due to "Dragon Knight Draco-Equiste's" effect, the damage that Yusei would take is redirected back at Jean (Jean 1000 → 600). The effect of "Thousand Crisscross" activates, (Jean 600 → 1000). Since "Lightning Tricorn" was destroyed in battle, its effect activates, allowing Jean to Special Summon "Voltic Bicorn" from his Extra Deck (2500/2000) in Attack Position. Yusei sets a card face-down and ends his turn.

Turn 25: Jean
(Yusei's SPC 7; Jean's SPC 8)
Jean draws. "Voltic Bicorn" attacks "Dragon Knight Draco-Equiste" (Jean intends to have "Draco-Equiste" destroy "Voltic Bicorn". This will activate the effect of "Voltic Bicorn" which will make Yusei send the top seven cards of his Deck to the Graveyard which will make Yusei lose due to Deck Out), but Yusei activates "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow", negating the attack and resetting "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow" after its effect resolves. Jean sets a card face-down and ends his turn.

Turn 26: Yusei Fudo
(Yusei's SPC 8; Jean's SPC 9)
Yusei draws "Speed Spell - Overspeed" (Yusei's Deck 1 → 0). Yusei then activates "Speed World 2's" effect, removing 4 Speed Counters (Yusei's SPC 8 → 4) to inflict 800 damage to Jean for each Speed Spell in his hand. Yusei reveals "Speed Spell - Overspeed", so Jean takes 800 damage (Jean 1000 → 200). The effect of "Thousand Crisscross" activates (Jean 200 → 1000). After that resolves, "Thousand Crisscross" is destroyed. Yusei activates "Speed Spell - Overspeed", reducing his Speed Counters to 0 (Yusei's SPC 4 → 0) to add "Rapid Warrior" and "Reflect Barrier" from the Graveyard to his hand, however Yusei won't be allowed to gain any Speed Counters for the next three turns. Yusei summons "Rapid Warrior" (1200/200) in Attack Position. Yusei activates the effect of "Rapid Warrior" to allow it to attack Jean directly this turn, but no other monsters will be allowed to attack this turn. "Rapid Warrior" attacks Jean directly, but Jean activates "Barrier Wave", tributing "Voltic Bicorn" to change all of Yusei's monsters to Defense Position. After that happens, the last effect of "Barrier Wave" inflicts damage to Yusei equal to the DEF of the monster that just attacked (Yusei 1100 → 900) (the effect of "Draco-Equiste" doesn't respond to this as it is currently not in Attack Position). Yusei removes from play "A/D Changer" from his Graveyard to activate its effect, switching "Dragon Knight Draco-Equiste" to Attack Position. Yusei sets 2 cards face-down and ends his turn.

Turn 27: Jean
(Yusei's SPC 0; Jean's SPC 10)
Jean draws. Yusei then activates "Summon Tax". Until Yusei's second Standby Phase, if a monster is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned, then the player who summoned that monster will take damage equal to half of that monster's ATK. Jean activates "Speed Spell - Tyrant Force" which will prevent any of his cards from being destroyed this turn and inflict 300 points of damage to Yusei each time one or more of his cards is destroyed. Jean then activates "Speed World 2's effect, removing 10 Speed Counters (Jean's SPC 10 → 0). to destroy "Summon Tax", but Yusei activates the final effect of "Draco-Equiste", removing "Stardust Dragon" from play to grant "Draco-Equiste" all of "Stardust Dragon's" abilities. Yusei then activates the effect "Draco-Equiste" gained from "Stardust Dragon", Tributing "Draco-Equiste" to negate the effect of "Speed World 2". When it is Jean's End Phase, "Draco-Equiste" will be Special Summoned back to the field. Yusei intends to have "Draco-Equiste" be Special Summoned back to the field on the End Phase. This will activate the effect of "Summon Tax", but this would also allow Yusei to activate his set "Reflect Barrier" which will redirect the damage back at Jean. Jean summons "Hypnocorn" (1400/600) in Attack Position. "Summon Tax's" effect activates (Jean 1000 → 300). Jean activates "Hypnocorn's" effect, destroying Yusei's face-down "Reflect Barrier". The effect of "Speed Spell - Tyrant Force" activates (Yusei 900 → 600). Jean activates "Chain Whirlwind", destroying Yusei "Summon Tax" and "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow". The effect of "Speed Spell - Tyrant Force" activates once again (Yusei 600 → 300). Jean is about to end his turn which will make Yusei lose due to Deck Out, but he, in the end, chooses not to do so. Instead he chooses to attack "Rapid Warrior" with "Hypnocorn", intending to finish Yusei off with the effect of "Speed Spell - Tyrant Force", but Yusei sends "Stronghold Guardian" from his hand to the Graveyard to activate its effect, increasing "Rapid Warrior's" DEF by 1500 until the End Phase ("Rapid Warrior": 1200/ 200 → 1700). The attack fails and backfires on Jean (Jean 300 → 0).

Yusei wins.
