Charlie explains that with "Sun Scale", he can, once a turn, roll a die and if he gets a six, then all monsters Yuma controls will be destroyed. Yuma almost selects to use "[[Commander of Swords]]" doesn't require a to destroy "Dice Crisis", which would activate its second to last effect and return control of "Utopia" to Yuma, but, by [[LIGHTAstral]] [[Warrior]]-[[Type]] monster 's advice, instead chooses to be on destroy "Sun Scale" (When "Sun Scale" was destroyed, Charlie lost the field in order good luck granted to be activatedhim by Number 7). Also, its first effect discards the drawn card, not destroys it.</ref> Charlie draws  As "[[Sun Scale]]" - a Spell Card. Yuma chooses was destroyed and sent to destroy it. Its the Graveyard, Charlie activates its second effect activates, inflicting to inflict 500 damage to Yuma (Yuma 1400 → 900LP). Charlie activates the effect of "Take a Chance". He rolls , but he gets a 1, so his Life Points return to what they were before his initial activation of the card (Charlie : 100000 → 4000).

Yuma activates draws "[[Comeback!]]", returning and subsequently activates it to target "Utopia" to his and take controlof it as it was a monster he owned. As his Life Points are 1000 or lower, Yuma Special Summons performs [[Xyz Evolution#Chaos Xyz Evolution|Chaos Xyz Evolution]] and overlays "Utopia" and its Overlay Units in order to Xyz Summon "[[Number C39: Utopia Ray (anime)|Chaos Number 39: Utopia Ray]]" (2500/2000) from his [[Extra DeckFile:Rank Star.svg|16px]]4/2500/2000, with "Utopia" and its Overlay Units becoming the Overlay Units of "Utopia Ray"ORU: 3) in Attack Position.  Yuma then activates the effect of "Utopia Ray" three times, detaching the three to detach all of its Overlay Units to increase the ATK of ("Utopia Ray" : 3 → 0 ORU) and increase its ATK by 1500, to 4000 and 500 for each Overlay Unit as well as subsequently decrease the ATK of "Lucky Straight" by 30001000 for each Overlay Unit detached ("Utopia Ray": 2500 → 4000 ATK, to "Lucky Straight": 700 → 0ATK). "Utopia Ray" attacks and destroys "Lucky Straight" (Charlie : 4000 → 0LP). ==Trivia==*[[Yuma Tsukumo|Yuma]] ordering "[[Number 39: Utopia (anime)|Utopia]]" to attack the sun is paying homage to the infamous moment from the second series anime, where [[Yami Yugi]] orders "[[Giant Soldier of Stone (anime)|Giant Soldier of Stone]]" to attack [[Full Moon|the moon]].**In both instances, the cards destroyed were [[Spell Card|Spells]], and an unrelated gameplay effect occurred after (water dried up after the moon was destroyed, and Charlie's luck disappeared after the sun was destroyed). * Multiple times during the Duel, [[Astral]] makes statements such as "The chance of the next die roll being a 6 is 1/7776", which is factually incorrect (see [[wikipedia:Gambler's fallacy|gambler's fallacy]]). The chance of any die roll being a 6 is always 1/6 regardless of the outcomes of any previous die rolls. The correct statement here is "The chance of rolling five 6's in a row is 1/7776." This is specified more clearly in the English dub.
