Featured Duel: Mai Valentine vs. Joey Wheeler - Part 2
Duel continues from previous episode.
Joey Wheeler's Turn
- Summons "Swordsman of Landstar" (500 ATK / 1200 DEF) in Defense Position.
- Sets two cards.
Mai Valentine's Turn
- Attacks, but Joey activates Trap Card "Double Magical Arm Bind", tributing two "Sheep Tokens" to take control of two of Mai's "Cyber Harpie Ladys".
- Joey activates Trap Card "Vow of Tribe": since monsters with the same name exist on each side of the field, no monsters can attack this turn.
Joey Wheeler's Turn
- Tributes two "Cyber Harpie Ladys" and "Swordsman of Landstar" to Summon "Gilford the Lightning" (2800 ATK / 1400 DEF): its special ability immediately activates, destroying all monsters on Mai's side of the field.
- Uses "Gilford the Lightning" to attack Mai directly (Mai: 3600 → 800 Life Points).
Mai Valentine's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Card of Sanctity" to make her and Joey draw until both have 6 cards in their hand (NOTE: The real-life version of the card has a slightly different effect).
- Activates Spell Card "Monster Reborn" to Special Summon "Cyber Harpie Lady" (1800 → 2300 ATK / 1300 DEF) back from her Graveyard in Attack Position.
- Activates Spell Card "Elegant Egotist", Special Summoning two more "Cyber Harpie Ladys" in Attack Position (NOTE: in the real game, "Elegant Egotist" has a slightly different effect).
- Activates Spell Card "Harpie Lady Phoenix Formation": Joey's "Gilford the Lightning" is destroyed and it inflicts Joey damage equal to its ATK points (Joey: 3600 → 800 Life Points).
Joey Wheeler's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "The Warrior Returning Alive": Joey returns "Blue Flame Swordsman" from his Graveyard to his hand, and then summons him (1800 ATK / 1600 DEF) in Attack Position.
- Activates Ritual Spell Card "Dark Dragon Ritual", tributing "Gearfried the Iron Knight" from his hand to Ritual Summon "Knight of Dark Dragons" (1900 ATK / 1200 DEF).
- Activates "Knight of Dark Dragons's" effect, tributing it to Special Summon "Red-Eyes B. Dragon" (2400 ATK / 2000 DEF) from his Deck.
- Activates "The Claw of Hermos", fusing it with "Red-Eyes B. Dragon" to form "Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword": he equips it to "Blue Flame Swordsman", boosting its ATK by +1000 ("Blue Flame Swordsman": 1800 → 2800 ATK / 1600 DEF).
- Uses "Blue Flame Swordsman" to attack Mai's first "Cyber Harpie Lady" (Mai: 800 → 300 Life Points).
- Sets two cards.
Mai Valentine's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Harpie's Feather Duster" to destroy all of Joey's Spell and Trap Cards: "Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword" is destroyed.
- Activates Spell Card "Spell Reproduction": Mai discards two Spell Cards to add "Harpie Lady Phoenix Formation" from her Graveyard to her hand.
- Activates Spell Card "Harpie Lady Phoenix Formation": before it's destroyed, Joey's "Blue Flame Swordsman" transfers all its ATK points to one of Mai's "Cyber Harpie Ladys" ("Cyber Harpie Lady": 2300 → 4100 ATK / 1300 DEF). This allows Joey not to lose any LP due to "Harpie Lady Phoenix Formation's" effect.
- "Blue Flame Swordsman's" second special ability activates: Joey can Special Summon "Flame Swordsman" (1800 ATK / 1600 DEF) in Attack Position (NOTE: in the anime, "Flame Swordsman" is not a Fusion Monster).
Joey Wheeler's Turn
- Sets a card.
Mai Valentine's Turn
- Uses her boosted "Cyber Harpie Lady" to attack Joey's "Flame Swordsman", but Joey activates Trap Card "Skull Dice": he rolls a two, halving "Cyber Harpie Lady's" ATK ("Cyber Harpie Lady": 4100 → 2050 ATK / 1300 DEF). It is still strong enough to destroy Joey's "Flame Swordsman" (Joey: 800 → 550 Life Points) (NOTE: in the real game, "Skull Dice" has a slightly different effect).
- Mai is about to order her second "Cyber Harpie Lady" to attack Joey directly, but stops short. Exhausted, Joey is however unable to continue the Duel. Mai wins.
Epilogue
- "The Seal of Orichalcos" claims Joey's soul.
- Before the Seal takes him, Joey is able to rip Mai's Orichalcos necklace from around her neck. The spell Dartz put her under is broken.
- Regretting her choices and losing Joey to the Orichalcos, Mai takes Joey's "The Claw of Hermos" card and sets off to challenge Dartz.
