Kalin still had memories of the time when he was a Dark Signer (how this occurred was unknown; it was possible that he remembered because he became a Dark Signer willingly, like [[Rex Goodwin|Rex]] and [[Roman Goodwin]], and that unwilling transformations like [[Carly Carmine|Carly's]] resulted in memory loss). Being left with the guilt from what he had done to hurt his friends, he struggled to end his life through the only thing that once mattered to him: Dueling.

Kalin managed to summoning his "steal a [[Infernity Doom DragonDuel Runner]]"from one of the members of Malcolm's gang, and used it to get to the Duel between Lawton and Yusei. UltimatelyIn an attempt to get rid of them, howeverLawton threw dynamite at them, which caused the mine to collapse and left Kalin and Yusei in a crevice, he is defeated while West and Nico were taken as hostages by Lawton. After visiting the graves of those who went to the mountain, Kalin vowed to fight for those either still working in the mountain or had lost their lives because of it and to save West and Nico, and called himself a "Stardust DragonDeath God" again.

Kalin gets to work with no second thought; even gave chase on Yusei couldn't convince s Duel Runner and caught him in order to escape otherwisefinish his last turn. Lawton, knowing his top card was a spell card that would render Kalin's "[[YuseiInfernity Doom Slinger]] then punched him in " useless, agreed to finish the stomach and escaped, as they escape they run into Nico and WestDuel. Soon after But Kalin used the effect of "[[LottenInfernity Climber]] " to draw this card instead of his spell card, using the effect of "Infernity Doom Slinger", and Malcomfinished off Lawton (In the dub, Kalin, after catching up to Lawton, restrains him until Sector Security arrived as Kalin believed he didn's gang members find themt deserve to end the Duel properly for being a coward). After that, Kalin stayed in town to watch over its reconstruction, Yusei goes and turbo duels Lottento watch over the kids, while Kalin is running away with West and Nico and West in a miner cart from Malcom.

In his early days, Kalin's Deck focused mainly on [[Fiend]]-[[Type]] monsters that had low levels and high attack points. After becoming a [[Dark Signer]], and with the loss of his own deck, his deck changed to becoming an '''[[Infernity]] Deck''', which focuses on the use of his Dark Synchro Monster "[[One-Hundred Eye Dragon]]" and its ability to use the effect of any [[DARK]] monster in his Graveyard when it's face-up on the field, primarily those of the "[[Infernity]]" series, which gains effects when the player has no cards in his hand. Kalin's "[[Earthbound Immortals|Earthbound Immortal]]" monster is "[[Earthbound Immortal Ccapac Apu|Ccapac Apu]]", which is also his ace monster, taking advantage that in a Turbo Duel, "[[Speed World]]" is always active adding the effect of "Ccapac Apu" making his "Earthbound Immortal" invincible against spells, traps, and monster attacks. ==Other appearances=={{Character other appearances}}
During Season 2 he still plays with the ==Decks=====Enforcers===As a member of [[InfernityThe Enforcers]] , Kalin used a different Deck, to the Decks he has new support now which seemed to make it better and fasterused later. The reason for While the nature of this Deck is unknown, [[Yusei Fudo|Yusei]] noted that since Kalin had focused on keeping his own deck taken away by Sector Security, if he never got it back, then the Infernity cards would be all he has left. In a sense, the Infernity cards, with their powerful effects and chancy condition (only able to use their effects while the controller has no [[hand) are symbolic of Kalin's situation: he has nothing left ]] full to live for, as he's already powerful on keep his ownoptions open.
