"Stardust Road's Guidance" is the forty-second episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS anime. It first aired in Japan on March 7, 2018.
Playmaker manages to withstand a brutal attack from Varus's Link Monster. Sensing the presence of monsters in the Tower of Hanoi, he flies into it. Playmaker then bets it all on a draw, but...
Featured Duel: Playmaker vs. Varus
Duel continues from the previous episode.
Turn 4: Varus
"Blast Powder Dragon" attacks Playmaker directly. As Varus's monster attacked directly while Playmaker has three or more Cyberse monsters in his GY, he activates the Quick-Play Spell Card "Spool Code" to negate the attack and Special Summon three "Spool Tokens" in Defense Position (???/0). As monsters were Normal or Special Summoned to a zone "Flash Charge Dragon" points to, Varus activates its effect to destroy one of those monsters and inflict 500 damage to Playmaker. He destroys a "Spool Token" (Playmaker: 900 → 400 LP).
Turn 5: Playmaker
Playmaker uses a "Spool Token" to Link Summon "Link Disciple (500/LINK-1/↓) to the Extra Monster Zone. Playmaker Normal Summons "Swap Cleric" (500/???). Playmaker uses "Swap Cleric" and a "Spool Token" to Link Summon "Security Dragon (1100/LINK-2/↑↓) to the zone the bottom Link Arrow of "Link Disciple" points to. As "Swap Cleric" was used as a Link Material for a Link Summon, Playmaker activates its effect, decreasing the ATK of the Link Summoned monster by 500, then Playmaker draws a card. As "Security Dragon" is co-linked, Playmaker activates its effect to return a monster on Varus's field to his hand. He targets "Flash Charge Dragon". As "Flash Charge Dragon" was targeted by a card effect, Varus activates its effect, Tributing a monster on his field to negate the effect. He Tributes "Blast Powder Dragon".
At this point, Playmaker enters the Data Storm. As his LP is 1000 or lower, Playmaker activates his Skill, "Storm Access", to randomly access a card within a Data Storm. Playmaker obtains "Transcode Talker" and adds it to his Extra Deck.
Playmaker uses "Link Disciple" and the Link-2 "Security Dragon" to Link Summon "Transcode Talker" (2300/LINK-3/↑→↓) to the Extra Monster Zone. Playmaker activates the effect of "Transcode Talker" to Special Summon a "code Talker" monster from his GY to a zone it points to. He Special Summons "Decode Talker" (2300/LINK-3/↙↑↘) to the zone the bottom Link Arrow of "Transcode Talker" points to. "Decode Talker" gains 500 ATK for each monster it points to ("Decode Talker": 2300 → 2800 ATK). As "Transcode Talker" is co-linked, it and the monster co-linked to it gain 500 ATK ("Transcode Talker": 2300 → 2800 ATK; "Decode Talker": 2800 → 3300 ATK). Playmaker activates the Field Spell Card "Cynet Storm", increasing the ATK and DEF of linked monsters on the field by 500 ("Transcode Talker": 2800 → 3300 ATK; "Decode Talker": 3300 → 3800 ATK). If Playmaker takes 2000 or more damage, he can shuffle the face-down cards in his Extra Deck and excavate the top card among them. If it is a Cyberse Link Monster, Playmaker can Special Summon it; otherwise, it is returned to the Extra Deck. "Decode Talker" attacks and destroys "Flash Charge Dragon" (Varus: 4000 → 2500 LP). "Transcode Talker" attacks Varus directly. As Playmaker's monster attacked directly, Varus activates the effect of "Chobham Armor Dragon" to Special Summon it from his hand in Attack Position (0/???) and change the attack target to "Chobham Armor Dragon". "Chobham Armor Dragon" cannot be destroyed by that battle, and any battle damage Varus would have taken is halved. The attack continues (Varus: 2500 → 850 LP).
Turn 6: Varus
At this point, Varus enters the Data Storm. As his LP is 1000 or lower, Varus activates his Skill, "Storm Access", to randomly access a card within a Data Storm. Varus obtains "Topologic Gamble Dragon" and adds it to his Extra Deck.
Varus activates the Spell Card "Link Recovery" to Special Summon a Link Monster from his GY, then if the Link Rating of the Special Summoned monster is more than the number of monsters Playmaker controls, Playmaker draws a card, however Varus cannot conduct his Battle Phase this turn. He Special Summons "Flash Charge Dragon" (2300/LINK-3/↖↑↗). Varus uses "Chobham Armor Dragon" and the Link-3 "Flash Charge Dragon" to Link Summon "Topologic Gamble Dragon". As "Chobham Armor Dragon" was used as a Link Material for a Link Summon, Varus activates its effect to let both players add a monster from their GY to their hands. Varus adds "Spin-Headed Behemoth" and Playmaker adds "Backup Secretary". Varus Special Summons "Drop Draco" by its own effect. As a monster was Special Summoned to a zone a Link Monster pointed to, Varus activates the effect of "Topologic Gamble Dragon" to destroy all cards in both players' hands. As a card was sent from a player's hand to the GY, Varus activates the effect of "Drop Draco" to inflict 300 damage to both players for each card sent, in this case three (Playmaker: 400 → 0 LP; Varus: 850 → 0 LP).
