Major Events
- Leon Wilson and Sieg Lloyd are set to Duel each other in the Grand Championship Final, as winners of Blocks A and B.
Sieg Lloyd | vs. | Leon Wilson |
- The Duel is set in Blue-Eyes Dome, the big audience stadium of Kaiba's theme park Kaibaland. The winner will have the honour of playing against Yugi Muto.
- Suddenly, Seto Kaiba arrives.
- Seto Kaiba: "This is as far as it comes! As the organizer of this tournament, I announce a cancellation! And, also, Leon Wilson is declared automatic winner and will compete against the current King!"
- The public moans in disappointment and Yugi & co. wonder what's going on. Leon is nevertheless glad that he'll be able to have a Duel with "Yuugi - san".
- Sieg Lloyd: "Would you mind giving us an explanation? Mr. Kaiba."
- Seto Kaiba: "There's no need for explanations. You lowlife are the one who clearly understands what's going on. Sieg Lloy... No! Siegfried von Schroider!"
- Kaiba then goes on listing the incidents organized by him and finds it laughable that Siegfried entered the KC Grand Prix with a fake name, him being the Schroider Inc. president, the main European rival of Kaiba Corporation.
- Siegfried calmly exposes that they're being filmed in live, so it's not like Kaiba's announcing that he fears Siegfried's company and thus is kicking him out.
- However, Kaiba tells him that "no one is going to kick you out" and challenges him to try to stand up to him in a Duel, to which Ziegfried quickly agrees. The featured Duel becomes Seto Kaiba vs. Siegfried von Schroider.
Notes
"Mischief of the Time Goddess":
- During this episode and during his first Turn of the Duel, Siegfried declares an Attack on a defenseless Seto. Seto uses Trap Card "Negate Attack" to Negate it, but Siegfried then plays Spell Card "Mischief of the Time Goddess": the Duel seems to skip towards another Battle Phase for Siegfried, who then Attacks again. (Also, Siegfried names it a Quick-Play Spell Card in the Japanese version although the Card itself is missing its symbol: possibly an animation error.)
- Seto however, counters Zigfried's second Attack by Activating Trap Card "Magical Trick Mirror": he selects "Mischief of the Time Goddess" in Siegfried's Graveyard and activates it. It somehow permits Seto to stop Siegfried's current Attack dead in its tracks, and go directly to his next Turn (which Phase is unclear, at least initially).
- The exact effects of "Mischief of the Time Goddess", as well as the subtleties of its application, aren't fully explained:
- Siegfried reads the exact text of the Card: "Skip 1 Turn. My Turn to Battle Phase".
- It is believed the Card's text should be something along the lines of: "Immediately end current Turn: its remaining Phases, including the End Phase, are Skipped. Go directly to the Battle Phase of your next Turn". A full discussion on how this conclusion was reached can be found in the "Mischief of the Time Goddess" DISCUSSION Page.
Featured Duel: Seto Kaiba vs. Siegfried von Schroider - Part 1
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Summons "X-Head Cannon" (1800 ATK / 1500 DEF) in Attack Position.
- Sets two Cards.
Siegfried von Schroider's Turn #1
- Activates Spell Card "Ride of the Valkyries": he can Special Summon 3 Valkyrie Monsters from his Hand: one "Valkyrie Erste" (1600 ATK / 1800 DEF), one "Valkyrie Zwei" (1600 ATK / 1600 DEF), and one "Valkyrie Dritte" (1000 ATK / 1600 DEF) in Attack Position.
- The first "Valkyrie Zwei's" Special Ability Activates: Seto's "X-Head Cannon" is Destroyed.
- Siegfried Activates "Valkyrie Erste's" Special Ability: he targets "X-Head Cannon" in Seto's Graveyard and Removes it from the Game so that his Monster's ATK becomes equal to that of Seto's Monster ("Valkyrie Erste": 1600 → 1800 ATK / 1800 DEF).
- Thanks to its Special Ability, since a Monster is now Removed from the Duel "Valkyrie Dritte" gains 100 ATK ("Valkyrie Dritte": 1000 → 1100 ATK / 1600 DEF).
- Uses his "Valkyrie Zwei" to Attack Seto Directly.
- Seto Activates Trap Card "Negate Attack": it Negates Siegfried's Attack and Ends the Battle Phase. ("Negate Attack" is a Quick-Play Spell Card in the anime.)
- During his Main Phase 2, Siegfried Activates Spell Card "Mischief of the Time Goddess": it allows him to Skip the rest of his current Turn and obtain a second Turn immediately after, going directly to his Battle Phase.
Siegfried von Schroider's Turn #2 - Battle Phase
- Uses his "Valkyrie Zwei" to Attack Seto Directly again.
- Seto Activates Trap Card "Magical Trick Mirror": he selects "Mischief of the Time Goddess" in Siegfried's Graveyard and Activates it. It permits Seto to Skip the rest of Siegfried's current turn and go directly to the Battle Phase of his next Turn.
Seto Kaiba's Turn - Battle Phase
- Since Seto has no Monsters on the Field, he cannot Attack. He goes directly to his Main Phase 2 (This step is explained by Seto in the original Japanese anime).
- During his Main Phase 2, Summons "Z-Metal Tank" (1500 ATK / 1300 DEF) in Defense Position.
- Activates "Clone Dragon's" Special Aability, Special Summoning from his hand (? ATK / ? DEF) in Defense Position. "Clone Dragon" becomes an exact duplicate of Seto's "Z-Metal Tank", with all the same stats as the original Monster ("Clone Dragon": ? → 1500 ATK / ? → 1300 DEF).
Siegfried von Schroider's Turn
- Since the end of Siegfried's previous Turn was skipped, the second Effect of "Ride of the Valkyries" could never activate. Thus, his "Valkyrie Erste", "Valkyrie Zwei", and "Valkyrie Dritte" are not returned to his Deck and are allowed to remain on the Field (NOTE: again, the explanation of this step is exclusively in the original Japanese anime; it is skipped in the English dub).
- Activates Spell Card "Valkyrie's Embrace": by Switching the Battle Position of one of his Valkyries, he can Remove a Monster his opponent Controls from the Duel. Zigfried switches his "Valkyrie Dritte" from Attack to Defense Position, Removing Seto's "Z-Metal Tank" from the Game.
- Thanks to its Special Ability, since an extra Monster was Removed from the Game "Valkyrie Dritte" gains another 100 ATK ("Valkyrie Dritte": 1100 → 1200 ATK / 1600 DEF).
- Uses "Valkyrie Erste" to Attack & Destroy Seto's "Clone Dragon".
- Uses "Valkyrie Zwei" to Attack Seto Directly (Seto: 4000 → 2400 Life Points).
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Summons "Pitch-Dark Dragon" (900 ATK / 600 DEF) in Defense Position.
- Sets a Card.
Siegfried von Schroider's Turn
- Switches his "Valkyrie Dritte" to Attack Position, and uses it to Attack & Destroy Seto's "Pitch-Dark Dragon".
- Since a Monster he controlled was Destroyed, Seto can Activate Trap Card "Flat Level 4": both Players may Special Summon a Level 4 Monster from their Hand or Deck. Seto Special Summons "Y-Dragon Head" (1500 ATK / 1600 DEF) in Defense Position; Zigfried Special Summons another "Valkyrie Dritte" (1000 → 1200 ATK / 1600 DEF) in Attack Position.
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Pot of Greed" to Draw 2 Cards.
- Activates Spell Card "Dimension Fusion": Seto Pays 2000 LP (Seto: 2400 → 400 Life Points) so that both Players may Special Summon all their Monsters Removed from the Game. Seto Special Summons "X-Head Cannon" (1800 ATK / 1500 DEF) and "Z-Metal Tank" (1500 ATK / 1600 DEF) back to the Field in Attack Position.
- Since no Monsters are "removed from the Duel" now, Sigfried's two "Valkyrie Drittes" lose their power boost ("Valkyrie Dritte": 1200 → 1000 ATK / 1600 DEF).
- Activates Continuous Spell Cards "Soul Absorption": whenever a Card is Removed from the Game, Seto's LP will increase by 500 per Card.
- Activates "XYZ-Dragon Cannon's" Special Ability: Seto removes his "X-Head Cannon", "Dragon Head", and "Z-Metal Tank" from the Game to Special Summon "XYZ-Dragon Cannon" (2800 ATK / 2600 DEF) from his Fusion Deck in Attack Position.
- "Soul Absorption's" Effect Activates: with 3 Cards Removed from the Game, Seto's LP increase by 1500 (Seto: 400 → 1900 Life Points).
- Thanks to its Special Ability, since 3 Monsters are now Removed from the Game Siegfried's two "Valkyrie Drittes" gain 300 ATK ("Valkyrie Dritte": 1000 → 1300 ATK / 1600 DEF).
- Uses "XYZ-Dragon Cannon" to Attack & Destroy one of Siegfried's "Valkyrie Drittes" (Siegfried: 4000 → 2500 Life Points).
Siegfried von Schroider's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Nibelung's Treasure".
- Siegfried Equips Equip Spell Card "Nibelung's Ring" from his Deck to Seto's "XYZ-Dragon Cannon". It cannot Attack or be Tributed.
- "Nibelung's Ring" resolves and its Control switches to Seto.
- Thanks to "Nibelung's Treasure's" secondary Effect, Siegfried Draws 5 Cards.
- Siegfried Equips Equip Spell Card "Nibelung's Ring" from his Deck to Seto's "XYZ-Dragon Cannon". It cannot Attack or be Tributed.
- Tributes "Valkyrie Dritte" to Summon "Fortune Chariot" (0 ATK / 0 DEF).
- Equips his "Fortune Chariot" to "Valkyrie Zwei": now, by cutting its ATK in half ("Valkyrie Zwei": 1600 → 800 ATK / 1600 DEF) "Valkyrie Zwei" can Attack Seto directly (Seto: 1900 → 1100 Life Points).
- Activates Quick-Play Spell Card "Mystical Space Typhoon" to Destroy Seto's "Soul Absorption".
- Sets a Card.
