"Heavy Metal King" destroys "Curse of Dragon" (Yami Yugi 1650 → 1600). Yami Yugi Normal Summons "Giant Soldier of Stone" (1300/2000) in Defense Position.

Turn 10: Yami Yugi
Yami Yugi Normal Summons "Dark Magician" in Attack Position. "Dark Magician" attacks and destroys "Heavy Metal King" (Johnny 1200 → 750). Johnny thinks there must be a mistake because as the effect of "Metalmorph" should have raised the ATK of "Metalmorph" to 3300; making him stronger than "Dark Magician". Yami Yugi explains that the effect of "Metalmorph" on increasing the equipped monster's ATK only activates when "Heavy Metal King" attacks, not when it's attacked by another monster.
Johnny, at this point, asks Yami Yugi for his name. When he finds out that his opponent is the duelist who defeated Maximillion Pegasus at Duelist Kingdom, Johnny quits.
Aftermath[edit]
Tea berates Johnny for being a coward, and feeling dejected, before leaving, Johnny thanks Tea for being honest with him. After which, Yugi and Tea head to the Domino Museum, looking for the answers to Yami's past.
Trivia[edit]
- This duel is the last of the entire anime to use Duelist Kingdom Rules.
