Espa summons "The Fiend Megacyber" and uses it to attack "Swordsman of Landstar", but Joey activates "[[Skull Dice]]" and "[[Graceful Dice]]" when Espa thought he had 2 "Graceful Dice" set. This allows Joey to surprise Espa and make a comeback. |
At this point, Joey points out to Espa that due to how he held his cards, Espa knew he had two "Dice" cards, but he couldn't tell which ones. Joey then states this means that Espa is cheating and someone is telling him what cards are in his hand. Espa becomes shocked he figured that out. Rex realizes that Espa must have used the same cheating method on him too. Espa's brothers realize they're busted for sure. Yugi congratulates Joey on his efforts as he is now in control of the Duel. | At this point, Joey points out to Espa that due to how he held his cards, Espa knew he had two "Dice" cards, but he couldn't tell which ones.
