At first, he appears to be a stationary mime in the park and is a curiosity for many of the people there, but when Marik takes control of him, he goes to confront Yugi and Duel him.
[[File:God_Five.png|thumb|left|210px|Marik using the God Five combo to overwhelm Yugi.]]Strings has a huge advantage up his sleeve, the [[Egyptian Gods|Egyptian God Card]] "[[Slifer the Sky Dragon (anime)|Slifer the Sky Dragon]]". Using a five card combo involving "Slifer", "[[Revival Jam (anime)|Revival Jam]]", "[[Infinite Cards (anime)|Infinite Cards]]", "[[Jam Defender (anime)|Jam Defender]]", and "[[Card of Safe Return (anime)|Card of Safe Return]]", Strings puts Yami in a tight situation. Every time he attacks, Strings can redirect the attack to "Revival Jam", which regenerates itself after being destroyed and thanks to "Card of Safe Return", he draws three cards from his Deck whenever this happens and because of "Infinite Cards", he can hold as many cards as he wants. With the [[ATK]] and [[DEF]] of "Slifer" proportional to the number of cards its controller holds, and with "Revival Jam" able to absorb and reform from any attack Yugi is able to make with the aid of "Jam Defender", Marik boasts the strategy is unbeatable.
Yami is just about to give up until Kaiba arrives and encourages him to fight on. The two manage to figure out the weakness of this combo and turn it against Marik. Yami attacks "Revival Jam" with "[[Buster Blader (anime)|Buster Blader]]", and then uses "[[Brain Control (anime)|Brain Control]]" to take control of "Revival Jam" as it regenerates so it regenerates under his control, forcing "Slifer" to attack it with its second mouth. Then "Revival Jam" is destroyed and regenerates, forcing Strings to draw three more cards due to "Card of Safe Return". Then "Slifer" must attack "Revival Jam" again, since it reformed under Yami's control, destroying it and allowing it to regenerate again, and forcing Strings to continue drawing due to "Card of Safe Return". This creates an [[infinite loop]] that only ends once Strings' Deck is empty, causing him to lose the Duel through a [[Deck Out]]. Yami gets "Slifer" for his victory.

Strings' only additional appearance was during [[Yami Marik]]'s Duel with [[Mai Valentine]] at the Battle City Finals. After Marik's "[[Makyura the Destructor (anime)|Makyura the Destructor]]" was destroyed during their Shadow Game, Marik's memory of Strings was erased, though Marik declared that no one in his mind was worth remembering anyway.
