Featured Duel: Seto Kaiba + Yami Yugi vs. Dartz - Part 1
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Activates Ritual Spell Card "White Dragon Ritual", Tributing "Vorse Raider" from his Hand to Ritual Summon "Paladin of White Dragon" (1900 ATK / 1200 DEF).
- Activates "Paladin of White Dragon's" effect, Tributing it to Special Summon "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (3000 ATK / 2500 DEF) in Attack Position.
Yami Yugi's Turn
- Activates Ritual Spell Card "Black Luster Ritual", Tributing "Valkyrion the Magna Warrior" from his Hand to Ritual Summon "Black Luster Soldier" (3000 ATK / 2500 DEF) in Attack Position.
- Sets a card.
Dartz's Turn
- Activates "The Seal of Orichalcos". From now on, all of Dartz's monsters will receive a +500 ATK boost and the loser(s) of this duel will lose their soul.
- Normal Summons "Orichalcos Gigas" (400 → 900 ATK / 1500 DEF) in Defense Position.
- Activates "Orichalcos Kyutora's" effect, paying 500 LP (Dartz: 4000 → 3500 Life Points) to Special Summon it (500 → 1000 ATK / 500 DEF) from his Hand in Defense Position. Dartz places it in the Spell & Trap Card Zone, meaning it can't be attacked until Dartz's first-row monsters are destroyed first.
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Polymerization", fusing his "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" on the field with 2 more "Blue-Eyes White Dragons" from his Hand to form "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" (4500 ATK / 3800 DEF) in Attack Position.
Yami Yugi's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Polymerization", fusing his "Black Luster Soldier" with Seto's "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" to form "Master of Dragon Soldier" (5000 ATK / 5000 DEF) on Yami's side of the field (NOTE: in the real game, "Master of Dragon Soldier" is called "Dragon Master Knight").
- Activates Trap Card "Meteorain": all of Yami's monsters obtain the Piercing effect (when monsters attack with an ATK that is higher than the DEF of the opponent's Defense Position monster, the difference is inflicted as Battle Damage to the opponent's Life Points).
- Uses "Master of Dragon Soldier" to attack & destroy Dartz's "Orichalcos Gigas" but thanks to "Orichalcos Kyutora's" effect, Dartz receives no Battle Damage.
- At this point, the magic of the Orichalcos lets Dartz, Yami and Seto share a vision of the past. Dartz reveals himself to be the King of the legendary city Atlantis.
