The evolving Roboppi uses ever-changing tactics to drive Soulburner into a corner. Unfazed by the "Appliancer" monsters' fierce attacks, Soulburner launches a determined counterattack. As the battle between the two rages on, something abnormal happens to Roboppi...
Featured Duel: Roboppi vs SoulburnerEdit
Duel continues from the previous episode.
Soulburner has 800 LP and controls "Salamangreat Sanctuary in his Field Zone. Roboppi has 1000 LP and controls "Appliancer Celtopus" (0/↙↓) in the Extra Monster Zone on his right-hand side, and "Appliancer Laundry Dragon" (1500/↑) in one of his Main Monster Zones "Celtopus" points to, as well as "Appliancer Electrilyrical World" in his Field Zone and 2 Set cards in his Spell & Trap Zones.
Turn 4: Soulburner
Soulburner Normal Summons "Salamangreat Falco" (1200/1600). Soulburner activates the effect of "Salamangreat Spinny" in his GY: if he controls a "Salamangreat" monster other than another copy of "Spinny" and this card is in his GY, then he can Special Summon this card, but it is banished when it leaves the field. He Special Summons "Spinny" (1000/1500) from his GY in Attack Position via its own effect. Soulburner sets "Falco" and "Spinny" (2 FIRE Effect Monsters) in the Link Arrows to Link Summon "Salamangreat Sunlight Wolf" (1800/↑↓) to the Extra Monster Zone on his right-hand side (due to its own effect, "Spinny" is banished since it left the field). Soulburner activates the effect of "Falco" in his GY: if this card is sent to the GY, he can target 1 "Salamangreat" Spell/Trap in his GY and Set that target to his field. He targets and sets "Salamangreat Claw" from his GY. Soulburner activates the effect of "Salamangreat Jack Jaguar" in his GY: if he controls a "Salamangreat" Link Monster, while this card is in his GY, he can target 1 "Salamangreat" monster in his GY, except "Jack Jaguar", and shuffle that target into his Deck, and if he does, he Special Summons this card to his Main Monster Zone that "Salamangreat" Link Monster points to. He targets "Salamangreat Heatleo" in his GY and returns it to his Extra Deck, and then Special Summons "Jack Jaguar" (1800/1200) from his GY in Attack Position to the zone the bottom-center Link Arrow of "Sunlight Wolf" points to. Soulburner activates the first effect of "Sunlight Wolf": if a monster(s) is Normal or Special Summoned to the zone(s) this card points to (except during the Damage Step), he can add 1 FIRE monster from his GY to his hand, but for the rest of this turn, he cannot Normal Summon/Set or Special Summon monsters with the added monster's name. He adds "Falco" from his GY to his hand. Soulburner sets "Jack Jaguar" (1 Level 4 or lower Cyberse monster) in the Link Arrow to Link Summon "Salamangreat Balelynx" (500/↓) to the Main Monster Zone the bottom-center Link Arrow of "Sunlight Wolf" points to. Soulburner activates the first effect of "Balelynx": if this card is Link Summoned, he can add 1 "Salamangreat Sanctuary" from his Deck to his hand. Soulburner sets "Balelynx" and the Link-2 "Sunlight Wolf" (2+ FIRE Effect Monsters) in the Link Arrows to Link Summon "Salamangreat Heatleo" (2300/↙↑↘) to the Extra Monster Zone on his right-hand side. Soulburner activates the first effect of "Heatleo": if this card is Link Summoned, he can target 1 card in his opponent's Spell & Trap Zone and shuffle it into the Deck. He targets one of Roboppi's Set cards and shuffles into his Deck. Using the first effect of "Sanctuary", which allows Soulburner to Link Summon a "Salamangreat" Link Monster using 1 "Salamangreat" Link Monster he controls with its same name as the entire material, Soulburner sets "Heatleo" in the Link Arrows to Reincarnation Link Summon another copy of "Heatleo" to the Extra Monster Zone on his right-hand side. Soulburner activates the first effect of "Heatleo" again, targeting another Set card in Roboppi's Spell & Trap Zone and shuffle it into his Deck. Soulburner activates his Set Equip Spell "Claw" and equips it to "Heatleo". Due to the second effect of "Claw", if the equipped monster is a "Salamangreat" Link Monster you control that was Link Summoned using a monster with its same name as material, during each Battle Phase it can make attacks on monsters up to its Link Rating. "Heatleo" is Link-3, therefore it can attack up to 3 times during each Battle Phase.
"Heatleo" attacks "Appliancer Laundry Dragon". In response to the attack, Roboppi activates the third effect of "Appliancer Electrilyrical World": when an opponent's monster declares an attack, he can target 1 Link-1 "Appliancer" Link Monster in his Main Monster Zone and move it to another of his Main Monster Zones. He moves it to the Main Monster Zone in the same column as "Appliancer Celtopus", so that they are now co-linked. Roboppi activates the effect of "Celtopus": during damage calculation, if his Link Monster co-linked to this card battles an opponent's monster while all monsters he controls are "Appliancer" monsters, then his battling monster gains 1000 ATK for each monster co-linked to this card, during that damage calculation only. There is currently 1 monster co-linked with "Celtopus": "Laundry Dragon" ("Laundry Dragon": 1500 → 2500 ATK). Roboppi activates the first effect of "Laundry Dragon": during damage calculation, if this co-linked card battles an opponent's monster, he can make it so that neither player takes any battle damage from that battle, also that opponent's monster is banished after damage calculation. The attack continues and fails, however "Heatleo" isn't destroyed by that battle (due to the first effect of "Claw", that prevents the equipped monster from being destroyed by battle or card effects) and Soulburner doesn't take any battle damage (due to the first effect of "Laundry Dragon"), but "Heatleo" is banished after damage calculation (which results in "Claw" destroying itself, as the monster it was equipped to had left the field). Soulburner activates the first effect of "Salamangreat Zebroid X" in his GY: during either player's Main or Battle Phase, if a "Salamangreat" Link Monster he controls left the field because of an opponent's card effect this turn, Soulburner can target this card and 1 Level 4 or lower "Salamangreat" monster in his GY, except "Salamangreat Zebroid X", and Special Summon both monsters, but their effects are negated (if any), and if he does, immediately after this effect resolves, Soulburner Xyz Summons 1 "Salamangreat" Xyz Monster using only those 2 monsters. He targets "Zebroid X" (1500/1000) and "Jack Jaguar" in his GY and Special Summons both of them from his GY (in Attack Position and Defense Position, respectively), then he immediately overlays both monsters (2 Level 4 monsters) to Xyz Summon the Rank 4 "Salamangreat Blaze Dragon" (2300/1200/2 ORU) in Attack Position to the Extra Monster Zone on his right-hand side. Due to the second effect of "Zebroid X", an Xyz Monster that was Summoned using it on the field as material gains 300 ATK for every Overlay Unit attached to it. There are currently 2: "Zebroid X" and "Jack Jaguar" ("Blaze Dragon": 2300 → 2900 ATK).
"Blaze Dragon" attack "Laundry Dragon". Soulburner activates the Quick-Play Spell "Salamangreat Tail", targeting 1 "Salamangreat" monster he controls, and increase its ATK equal to its DEF (until the end of this turn), then he gains LP equal to its DEF. He targets "Blaze Dragon", which has 1200 DEF ("Blaze Dragon": 2900 → 4100 ATK) (Soulburner: 800 → 2000 LP). Roboppi activates the second effect of "Celtopus": during damage calculation, if his Link Monster co-linked to this card battles an opponent's monster while all monsters he controls are "Appliancer" monsters, then his battling monster gains 1000 ATK for each monster co-linked to this card, during that damage calculation only. There is currently 1 monster co-linked with "Celtopus": "Laundry Dragon" ("Laundry Dragon": 1500 → 2500 ATK). Roboppi activates the second effect of "Appliancer Reduction" in his GY: during damage calculation, if an opponent's monster attacks, he can banish this card from his GY, in order to halve any battle damage he takes from that battle. The attack continues and "Laundry Dragon" is destroyed (Roboppi: 1000 → 200 LP).
Soulburner Sets a card in his Spell & Trap Zone. During the End Phase, the effect of "Tail" on "Blaze Dragon" ends ("Blaze Dragon": 4100 → 2900).
Turn 5: Roboppi
Roboppi draws and activates the Normal Spell "Appliancer Test", targeting 1 "Appliancer" Link Monster he controls in the Extra Monster Zone, and Special Summon as many Link-1 "Appliancer" Link Monsters from his GY as possible to his field so they are co-linked to the targeted monster, but their ATK become 0, also they are banished during the End Phase of this turn. He targets "Celtopus" in his Extra Monster Zone and Special Summons "Appliancer Vacculephant" (1000/↗) to the zone the bottom-left Link Arrow of "Celtopus" points to and "Appliancer Propelion" (1200/↑) to the zone the bottom-center Link Arrow of "Celtopus" points to, so that they are now both co-linked with "Celtopus", but their ATK becomes 0 ("Vacculephant": 1000 → 0 ATK) ("Propelion": 1200 → 0 ATK). Roboppi activates the second effect of "Vacculephant": if this card is co-linked, he can target 1 monster in your opponent's Main Monster Zone and destroy it. He targets "Blaze Dragon" [1], however, due to the first effect of "Blaze Dragon", Soulburner can detach 1 Overlay Unit from "Blaze Dragon" in order to prevent it from being destroyed by battle or card effect, which he does so ("Blaze Dragon": 2 → 1 ORU). However, the ATK boost from "Zebroid X" is reduced ("Blaze Dragon": 2900 → 2600). Roboppi sets "Propelion" (1 Link-1 "Appliancer" monster) in the Link Arrow to Link Summon another copy of "Laundry Dragon" (1500/↑) to the Main Monster Zone the bottom-center Link Arrow of "Celtopus" points to, so that they are now co-linked. Roboppi activates the second effect of "Electrilyrical World": if his "Appliancer" Link Monster is Link Summoned, he can target 1 "Appliancer" monster in his GY, and return it to his hand. He adds "Appliancer Copybokkle" from his GY to his hand. Roboppi sets "Vacculephant" (1 Link-1 "Appliancer" monster) in the Link Arrow to Link Summon "Appliancer Dryer Drake" (0/↗) to the Main Monster Zone the bottom-left Link Arrow of "Celtopus" points to, so that they are now co-linked. Due to its own effect, while "Dryer Drake" is co-linked, it gains 1000 ATK ("Dryer Drake": 0 → 1000 ATK).
"Laundry Dragon" attacks "Blaze Dragon". Roboppi activates the second effect of "Celtopus": during damage calculation, if his Link Monster co-linked to this card battles an opponent's monster while all monsters he controls are "Appliancer" monsters, then his battling monster gains 1000 ATK for each monster co-linked to this card, during that damage calculation only. There are currently 2 monsters co-linked with "Celtopus": "Laundry Dragon" and "Dryer Drake" ("Laundry Dragon": 1500 → 3500 ATK). Soulburner sends 1 Spell/Trap (in this case, "Sanctuary") from his hand to his GY to activates his Set Continuous Trap "Salamangreat Ring", which makes all "Salamangreat" monsters he controls unaffected by the activated effects of his opponent's monsters, also they gain 500 ATK ("Blaze Dragon": 2600 → 3100). The attack continues (Soulburner: 2000 → 1600 ATK) ("Laundry Dragon": 3500 → 1500 ATK), but Soulburner detaches another overlay unit from "Blaze Dragon" ("Blaze Dragon": 1 → 0 ORU) to prevent it from being destroyed in battle due to its first effect, but its ATK decrease due to it not having any overlay units ("Blaze Dragon": 3100 → 2800 ATK).
"Dryer Drake" attacks "Blaze Dragon". Roboppi activates the second effect of "Celtopus": during damage calculation, if his Link Monster co-linked to this card battles an opponent's monster while all monsters he controls are "Appliancer" monsters, then his battling monster gains 1000 ATK for each monster co-linked to this card, during that damage calculation only. There are currently 2 monsters co-linked with "Celtopus": "Laundry Dragon" and "Dryer Drake" ("Dryer Drake": 1000 → 3000 ATK). Soulburner activates the second effect of "Blaze Dragon": during the Battle Phase, if this card has no overlay units, he can Special Summon from his Extra Deck, 1 "Salamangreat" Xyz Monster by using this face-up card you control as material. This is treated as an Xyz Summon, and all materials are transferred to the Summoned monster. He uses "Blaze Dragon" to Reincarnation Xyz Summon another copy of "Blaze Dragon" to the Extra Monster Zone on his right-hand side. Due to the effect of "Ring", "Blaze Dragon" gains 500 ATK ("Blaze Dragon": 2300 → 2800 ATK) ("Dryer Drake": 3000 → 1000 ATK). Soulburner activates the third effect of "Blaze Dragon": if this card is Reincarnation Xyz Summoned, he can destroy 1 monster his opponent controls. He destroys "Laundry Dragon". Roboppi activates the second effect of "Appliancer Coating" in his GY: if an "Appliancer" Link Monster(s) he controls is destroyed by a card effect and sent to his GY, he can target 1 of his destroyed Link Monsters and 1 Link-1 Link Monster in his opponent's GY, then Special Summon his targeted monster to his field so it is co-linked, and if he does, he banishes that opponent's monster, then banishes this card. He targets "Laundry Dragon" in his GY and "Balelynx" in Soulburner's GY, Special Summons the first target to his field in the Main Monster Zone the bottom-center Link Arrow of "Celtopus" points to, so that they are now co-linked, and banishes "Balelynx" from Soulburner's GY and "Coating" from his own GY.
A replay occurs and "Dryer Drake" attacks "Blaze Dragon" again. Roboppi activates the second effect of "Celtopus": during damage calculation, if his Link Monster co-linked to this card battles an opponent's monster while all monsters he controls are "Appliancer" monsters, then his battling monster gains 1000 ATK for each monster co-linked to this card, during that damage calculation only. There are currently 2 monsters co-linked with "Celtopus": "Laundry Dragon" and "Dryer Drake" ("Dryer Drake": 1000 → 3000 ATK). The attack continues (Soulburner: 1600 → 1400) ("Dryer Drake": 3000 → 1000 ATK), but Soulburner detaches another overlay unit from "Blaze Dragon" ("Blaze Dragon": 1 → 0 ORU) to prevent it from being destroyed in battle due to its first effect.
"Laundry Dragon" attacks "Blaze Dragon". Roboppi activates the second effect of "Celtopus": during damage calculation, if his Link Monster co-linked to this card battles an opponent's monster while all monsters he controls are "Appliancer" monsters, then his battling monster gains 1000 ATK for each monster co-linked to this card, during that damage calculation only. There are currently 2 monsters co-linked with "Celtopus": "Laundry Dragon" and "Dryer Drake" ("Laundry Dragon": 1500 → 3500 ATK). The attack continues and "Blaze Dragon" is destroyed (Soulburner: 1400 → 700 LP) ("Laundry Dragon": 3500 → 1500 ATK). Roboppi activates the second effect of "Dryer Drake": during his Battle Phase, if this card is co-linked, he can target 1 Link-1 "Appliancer" Link Monster in his Main Monster Zone and switch the locations of that monster and this card, and if he does, that targeted monster can make a second attack during each Battle Phase this turn. He targets "Laundry Dragon" and switches places with it and "Dryer Drake", so that they are now not co-linked with "Celtopus" ("Dryer Drake": 1000 → 0 ATK).
At this moment, Roboppi malfunctions and ends his turn. At the end of the Battle Phase, "Ring" is destroyed due to its own effect.
Turn 6: Soulburner
Soulburner draws and activates the Equip Spell "Rising Fire": If he control no monsters, he activates this card by targeting 1 FIRE monster in his GY, and Special Summons it and equips it with this card. In addition, the equipped monster gains 500 ATK. He targets and Special Summons "Heatleo" and equips it with "Rising Fire" ("Heatleo": 2300 → 2800 ATK).
"Heatleo" attacks and destroys "Dryer Drake" (Roboppi: 200 → 0 LP).

NotesEdit
- ↑ Roboppi should not have been able to do this, as he is only able to target monsters in the Main Monster Zone with this effect, however the only monster Soulburner controls is "Salamangreat Blaze Dragon, which is in his Extra Monster Zone.
