Featured Duel: Yusei Fudo vs. Jack Atlas[edit]
Before the start of the Duel, as per the rules of a Turbo Duel, the Field Spell "Speed World" is activated. If a player activates a non-"Speed Spell" Spell, they take 2000 damage. During each player's Standby Phase, each player places a Speed Counter on "Speed World", up to a maximum of twelve each. Also, each time a player takes damage, they reduce their Speed Counters by one for every 1000 points of damage they took.
Turn 1: Yusei
Yusei's hand contains "Graceful Revival", "Shield Warrior", "Defense Draw", "Speed Warrior", and "Harmonia Mirror"[Error 1]. Yusei Normal Summons "Quillbolt Hedgehog" (800/800) in Defense Position.
Turn 2: Jack
During the Standby Phase, the effect of "Speed World" activates (Yusei: 0 → 1 SPC, Jack: 0 → 1 SPC). Jack Normal Summons "Mad Archfiend" (1800/0). During battle between the attacking "Mad Archfiend" and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of "Mad Archfiend", its effect allows it to inflict the difference as battle damage to Yusei. "Mad Archfiend" attacks and destroys "Quillbolt Hedgehog" (Yusei: 4000 → 3000 LP, 1 → 0 SPC). Jack's hand contains "Twin-Shield Defender", "Big Piece Golem", "Medium Piece Golem", "Dark Resonator", and "Sinister Sprocket".
Turn 3: Yusei
Yusei draws "Junk Synchron". During the Standby Phase, the effect of "Speed World" activates (Yusei: 0 → 1 SPC, Jack: 1 → 2 SPC). Yusei Normal Summons "Junk Synchron" (1300/500). As Yusei controls a Tuner, Yusei activates the effect of "Quillbolt Hedgehog" in his Graveyard, Special Summoning it (800/800) but it is removed from play when it leaves the field. Yusei tunes the Level 3 Tuner "Junk Synchron" with the Level 2 "Quillbolt Hedgehog" to Synchro Summon the Level 5 "Junk Warrior" (2300/1300). "Junk Warrior" attacks and destroys "Mad Archfiend" (Jack: 4000 → 3500 LP).
Turn 4: Jack
Jack draws "Spacegate". During the Standby Phase, the effect of "Speed World" activates (Yusei: 1 → 2 SPC, Jack: 2 → 3 SPC). Jack Normal Summons "Twin-Shield Defender" (700/1600) in Defense Position. Jack Sets a card.
Turn 5: Yusei
Yusei draws "Spacegate"[Error 2]. During the Standby Phase, the effect of "Speed World" activates (Yusei: 2 → 3 SPC, Jack: 3 → 4 SPC). Yusei's hand contains "Ghost Gardna", "Harmonia Mirror", "Speed Warrior", "Counterattack Beacon", and "Meteor Stream". Yusei Normal Summons "Speed Warrior" (900/400). The effect of "Junk Warrior" increases its ATK equal to the total ATK of all face-up Level 2 or lower monsters Yusei controls[Notes 1] ("Junk Warrior": 2300 → 3200 ATK). During the Battle Phase, as "Speed Warrior" was Normal Summoned this turn, Yusei activates its effect, doubling its original ATK until the end of the Battle Phase ("Speed Warrior": 900 → 1800 ATK). "Speed Warrior" attacks and destroys "Twin-Shield Defender". As the face-up Defense Position "Twin-Shield Defender" Jack controls was destroyed by battle and sent to his Graveyard, he activates its effect, halving the current ATK of a face-up monster Yusei controls until the End Phase. He halves the ATK of "Junk Warrior" ("Junk Warrior": 3200 → 1600 ATK). "Junk Warrior" attacks Jack directly (Jack: 3500 → 1900 LP, 4 → 3 SPC). Jack activates his face-down Continuous Trap "Spacegate", placing a Gate Counter on it for each time a monster Yusei controls attacks or is attacked this turn[Error 3]. "Speed Warrior" and "Junk Warrior" attacked this turn, so he places two Gate Counters on "Spacegate" ("Spacegate": 0 → 2 Gate Counters). Yusei Sets a card.
Turn 6: Jack
During the Standby Phase, the effect of "Speed World" activates (Yusei: 3 → 4 SPC, Jack: 3 → 4 SPC). As Jack has 4 or more Speed Counters, he activates "Speed Spell - Speed Fusion", Fusion Summoning a Fusion Monster from his Extra Deck using monsters from his hand or field as Fusion Materials. He fuses "Big Piece Golem" and "Medium Piece Golem" in his hand to Fusion Summon "Multiple Piece Golem" (2600/1300). "Multiple Piece Golem" attacks "Speed Warrior". During damage calculation during Jack's turn, Yusei activates his face-down Trap "Defense Draw", making the battle damage he would take from this battle 0, then drawing a card. The attack continues and "Speed Warrior" is destroyed ("Junk Warrior": 3200 → 2300 ATK)[Error 4]. The battle damage becomes 0 and Yusei draws a card. At the end of the Battle Phase, as "Multiple Piece Golem" attacked or was attacked, Jack activates its effect, returning it to the Extra Deck, then if all of the Fusion Material Monsters that were used for its Fusion Summon are in his Graveyard, he can Special Summon them. He returns "Multiple Piece Golem" to his Extra Deck, then Special Summons "Big Piece Golem" (2100/0) and "Medium Piece Golem" (1600/0). As "Medium Piece Golem" is Summoned while Jack controls "Big Piece Golem", he activates the effect of "Medium Piece Golem", Special Summoning "Small Piece Golem" (1100/0) from his Deck, but its effects are negated.
Jack Normal Summons "Dark Resonator" (1300/300). Jack tunes the Level 3 Tuner "Dark Resonator" with the Level 5 "Big Piece Golem" to Synchro Summon the Level 8 "Red Dragon Archfiend" (3000/2000). During the Main Phase, Jack activates the effect of "Spacegate", sending it to the Graveyard to Special Summon a monster from his hand whose Level is equal to or lower than the number of Gate Counters on "Spacegate". Jack sends "Spacegate" with two Gate Counters to Special Summon the Level 1 "Sinister Sprocket" (400/0). Jack tunes the Level 1 Tuner "Sinister Sprocket" with the Level 3 "Small Piece Golem" and the Level 4 "Medium Piece Golem" to Synchro Summon the Level 8 "Stardust Dragon" (2500/2000)[Error 5].
Duel continues in the next episode.
Differences in adaptions[edit]
- In the Japanese version, while showing Yusei the skyscrapers, Jack tells Yusei how the city never sleeps and continues to grow; And that he will continue to rule as King. In the English version he describes how it's a step up from Satellite.
- The stadium that Yusei and Jack are dueling in is called the Kaiba Dome in the English version. Its name was not mentioned in the Japanese version.
- In the English version, Jack says the he hopes Trudge wasn't too much on an inconvenience, he just doing what he's paying him to do. In the Japanese version, Jack shows no authority over Ushio (Trudge) and this line did not exist.
- In the Japanese, Goodwin tolerates Akutsu's (Zigzix's) wild behavior. In the English version, he becomes impatient over it.
- In the Japanese version, when Mikage (Mina) said she tried to stop Jack, Goodwin seizes her by the jaw, after which she apologies. This scene was cut from the English version.
- In the English dub, when Yusei Summons "Junk Synchron", he activates its effect to bring back "Quillbolt Hedgehog". In the original, he activates the effect of "Quillbolt Hedgehog" instead.
Trivia[edit]
- In the original Japanese airing, when Jack summons Stardust Dragon, it's moving down. This is changed on the Japanese DVD to show Stardust moving up, and that's the version 4Kids dubbed.
Errors[edit]
- ↑ These cards were wrongly animated. They should instead be "Ghost Gardna", "Harmonia Mirror", "Speed Warrior", "Counterattack Beacon", and "Meteor Stream".
- ↑ Based on the cards played afterwards, this card is wrongly animated, and should instead be "Defense Draw".
- ↑ In the Japanese anime text of "Spacegate", this effect is applied each time a monster Yusei controls declared an attack while "Spacegate" is face-up.
- ↑ At this point, the effect of "Spacegate" would have placed a third Gate Counter on it, but this was not shown, nor was the third counter present when Jack sent it to the Graveyard.
- ↑ In the Japanese anime text of "Red Dragon Archfiend", during the End Phase, "Stardust Dragon" should have been destroyed as it did not declare an attack.
- In the English dub, when Jack's Life Points drop due to the direct attack made by "Junk Warrior", the wrong counter is used. Instead of a Life Point counter, it is a monster's Attack Point counter.
