Jaden later destroys one of them with [[Elemental Hero Flare Neos]] powered up by its own effect, but Crowler later returned it to his hand via [[Ancient Gear Workshop]].

Yusei then activates "[[Tuner's Explosion]]" to Tribute "Hanewata", "Flamvell Guard", and "Eccentric Boy" in order to destroy all three copies of this card and inflict 1000 damage to Heitmann for each destroyed monster. Since three were destroyed, Heitmann takes 3000 damage.

None of the attacks destroy "Flamvell Guard", but the three copies then inflict piercing damage to Yusei. Heitmann then activates "[[Level Thunder]]" to inflict damage to Yusei equal to the combined Levels of all face-up monsters on his side of the field times 100.
