At Charlie's Duel, Charlie is a huge pinch. He has no monsters, and only two Set cards, while his opponent controls three [[Xyz Monster]]s, and he has only 100 Life Points left compared to his opponent's full 4000. Yuma tells him this, but Charlie seems calm, and draws his card, which is "[[Reload (anime)|Reload]]", so he returns his whole hand to his Deck and then draws the same amount of cards as returned. He uses his spell "[[Triple Ace]]" to Special Summon three "[[Dice Leveler]]s" (the dots representing the die numbers are removed in the dub). Using their effects, he rolls a dice for each one to increase its Level by the rolled amount. All three rolls yield the result of 6, which Yuma, Tori, and Astral are amazed by, as this is very improbable.

Charlie [[Xyz Material|overlays]] his three monsters which are now Level 7, to Xyz Summon his [[Number]], "[[Number 7: Lucky Straight (anime)|Number 7: Lucky Straight]]"! A roulette machine appears, which is Number 7's sealed form, which turns into its full form. Using his "[[Dream Dice]]", Charlie rolls a dice. As its result is 6, all of his opponent's monsters will have their Attack Points reduced to 0 by the cards effect. Again, Charlie rolls 6 for the fourth time in a row, doing so. He attacks with "Lucky Straight", and activates its effect, and the dice roll that follows will multiply the ATK of "Lucky Straight" by the amount rolled. It lands on a 6 for the fifth time, and "Lucky Straight" obliterates the opponent's Life Points as a result. Yuma, Tori, and Astral are amazed by Charlie's gameplay, and his opponent says he must've cheated as it's impossible to roll a 6 so many times.

[[Duel]] is shown from an unspecified [[turn]]. [[Reginald Kastle|Shark]] controls "[[Submersible Carrier Aero Shark (anime)|Submersible Carrier Aero Shark]]" (1900/1000), while his opponent [[control]]s no cards and has 1200 [[Life Points]].

Shark [[activate]]s the [[effect]] of "Aero Shark", [[detach]]ing an [[Xyz Material|Overlay Unit]] ("Aero Shark" ORU 2 → 1) to inflict [[effect damage|damage]] to his opponent equal to the number of cards in Shark's [[hand]] times 400. With four cards, he inflicts 1600 damage (Opponent 1200 → 0).  

[[Duel]] is shown from an unspecified [[turn]]. [[Kite Tenjo|Kite]] controls "[[Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon (anime)|Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]]" (3000/2500) in [[Attack Position]], while his opponents [[control]] no cards and both have 500 [[Life Points]].

"Galaxy-Eyes" [[attack]]s both opponents [[Direct attack|directly]] (Opponent #1 500 → 0, Opponent #2 500 → 0).

[[Duel]] is shown from an unspecified [[turn]]. [[Charlie McCay|Charlie]] [[control]]s two [[Set]] cards and has 100 [[Life Points]]. [[Charlie's opponent|His opponent]] controls "[[Kachi Kochi Dragon (anime)|Kachi Kochi Dragon]]" (2100/1300), "[[Thunder End Dragon (anime)|Thunder End Dragon]]" (3000/2000) and "[[Daigusto Phoenix (anime)|Daigusto Phoenix]]" (1500/1100), all in [[Attack Position]] and has 4000 [[Life Points]].

Charlie [[activate]]s "[[Reload (anime)|Reload]]", [[shuffle|shuffling]] the three cards in his [[hand]] into his [[Main Deck|Deck]] and [[draw a card|draw]]ing the same amount. He then activates his [[face-down]] "[[Triple Ace]]", letting him [[Special Summon]] three [[Level]] 1 [[Monster Card|monsters]] with the same name from his hand. He Special Summons three copies of "[[Dice Leveler]] (100/100 each) in Attack Position. Charlie activates the [[effect]]s of all three "Dice Leveler", rolling a die for each. The Level of each "Dice Leveler" will increase by an amount equal to the die roll. The result of each die is 6. Therefore, the Level of each "Dice Leveler" becomes 7 until the [[End Phase]]. Charlie [[Xyz Material|overlays]] his three Level 7 monsters to [[Xyz Summon]] "[[Number 7: Lucky Straight (anime)|Number 7: Lucky Straight]]" (700/700) in Attack Position. Charlie activates his face-down "[[Dream Dice]]", rolling a die. If it the result if 6, the [[ATK]] of all monsters his opponent [[control]]s will become 0. Otherwise, the ATK of all monsters Charlie controls will become 0. The result is 6 ("Kachi Kochi Dragon" 2100 → 0, "Thunder End Dragon" 3000 → 0, "Daigusto Phoenix 1500 → 0). "Lucky Straight" [[attack]]s and Charlie activates its effect, [[detach]]ing an Overlay Unit ("Lucky Straight" ORU 3 → 2) to roll a die. Its ATK will be multiplied by the die result. He rolls a 6 ("Lucky Straight 700 → 4200, Opponent 4000 → 0).
