Turn 3: Varis
During the Standby Phase, the monster sent to the GY to activate the effect of "Link Coin" is Special Summoned. "Voritcular Drumgon" is Special Summoned (1000/LINK-3/←↓→). As "Voritcular Drumgon" was Special Summoned, Varis activates its effect to draw a card. Varis Normal Summons "Sniffer Dragon" (800/400). As "Sniffer Dragon" was Normal Summoned, Varis activates its effect to add another copy of "Sniffer Dragon" from his Deck to his hand. Varis uses "Sniffer Dragon" and the Link-3 "Voritcular Dragon" to Link Summon "Topologic Bomber Dragon" (3000/LINK-4/↑↙↓↘) to the Extra Monster Zone. Varis activates the Equip Spell Card "Borrel Reload" to Special Summon a "Rokket" monster from his GY in Defense Position and equip it with "Borrel Reload". He Special Summons "Metalrokket Dragon" (1700/1400) to the zone the bottom-left Link Arrow of "Topologic Bomber Dragon" points to. The effect of "Boot Sector Launch" increases the ATK and DEF of "Rokket" monsters by 300 (Metalrokket: 1700 → 2000/1400 → 1700). As a monster was Special Summoned to a zone a Link Monster points to, the effect of "Topologic Bomber Dragon" activates, destroying all monsters in the Main Monster Zones. "Metalrokket" is destroyed, but as another monster was Link Summoned this turn, "Restoration Point Guard" cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects this turn. As the monster equipped with "Borrel Reload" is destroyed, Varis activates its effect to draw a card.
"Topologic Bomber Dragon" attacks "Restoration Point Guard". As a Cyberse monster Playmaker controls is targeted for an attack, he activates the effect of "Rescue interlacer" in his hand, discarding it to reduce the battle damage he would take to 0. The attack continues, but "Restoration Point Guard" is not destroyed. As "Topologic Bomber Dragon" attacked Playmaker's monster, its effect activates, inflicting damage to Playmaker equal to the ATK of the monster it attacked (Playmaker: 4000 → 3000 LP). Varis activates his face-down Continuous Trap Card "Mirror Force Launcher", and activates its effect , discarding a card from his hand to add a "Mirror Force" from his Deck or GY to his hand. He discards an unknown card and adds "Mirror Force" from his GY to his hand. Revolver Sets two cards. During the End Phase, as "Metalrokket" was destroyed and sent to the GY this turn, Varis activates its effect to Special Summon a "Rokket" monster with a different name from his Deck. He Special Summons "Magnarokket Dragon" (1800 → 2100/1200 → 1500). As "Rescue Interlacer" was sent to the GY this turn, Playmaker activates its effect to Special Summon it from the GY (1000/1200).
