Jaden Yuki vs Akiza Izinski

## Featured Duel

**Turn 1: Akiza**

Akiza draws. She then Normal Summons "Wall of Ivy" (300/1200) in Defense Position. She then Sets a card.

**Turn 2: Jaden**

Jaden draws. He then Normal Summons "Elemental Hero Sparkman" (1600/1400) in Attack Position. "Sparkman" attacks "Wall of Ivy", but the effect of "Wall of Ivy" activates, Special Summoning an "Ivy Token" (0/0) to Yusei's side of the field in Defense Position. "Sparkman" then destroys "Wall of Ivy". He then Sets a card.

**Turn 3: Akiza**

Akiza draws. She then activates her face-down "Cursed Ivy" to revive "Wall of Ivy" (300/1200) in Defense Position and equipping it with "Cursed Ivy". She then activates "Fragrance Storm" to destroy "Dark Verger" and draw a card ("Evil Thorn"). Since "Evil Thorn" is a Plant-type monster, Akiza activates the second effect of "Fragrance Storm" to reveal "Copy Plant" to Misty and draw one more card. Because "Wall of Ivy" was destroyed, "Cursed Ivy" is destroyed too. Since "Cursed Ivy" was sent from the field to the Graveyard, the third effect of "Cursed Ivy" activates, Special Summoning two more "Ivy Tokens" to Yusei's side of the field (0/0 for both) in Defense Position. She then activates "Seed of Deception" to Special Summon "Dark Verger" from her hand (0/1000) in Attack Position. She then Tributes "Dark Verger" in order to Tribute Summon "Rose Tentacles" (2200/1200) in Attack Position. Since Jaden has three Plant-type monsters on his side of the field, "Rose Tentacles" gains three additional attacks this turn (one attack for each Plant-type Yusei controls). "Rose Tentacles" attacks "Sparkman", but Jaden activates his face-down "Hero Barrier" to negate the attack as he controls an "Elemental Hero" monster. "Rose Tentacles" attacks and destroys "Sparkman" (Jaden 4000 → 3400). "Rose Tentacles" attacks and destroys two "Ivy Tokens", which inflict 300 damage to Jaden each time they are destroyed. In addition, the second effect of "Rose Tentacles" then inflicts 300 damage to Jaden for each Plant-Type monster it destroyed (Jaden 3400 → 2800 → 2200).

**Turn 4: Jaden**

Jaden draws. He then activates "E - Emergency Call" to add "Elemental Hero Wildheart" from his Deck to his hand. He then activates "Polymerization" to fuse "Wildheart" with "Elemental Hero Necroshade" in order to Fusion Summon "Elemental Hero Necroid Shaman" (1900/1800) in Attack Position. He then activates its effect to send "Rose Tentacles" to the Graveyard and Special Summon "Dark Verger" (0/1000) from Akiza's Graveyard to her side of the field in Attack Position. "Necroid Shaman" attacks and destroys "Dark Verger" (Akiza 4000 → 2100). He then Sets a card.

**Turn 5: Akiza**

Akiza draws. She then Normal Summons "Twilight Rose Knight" (1000/1000) in Attack Position. She then activates its effect to Special Summon "Evil Thorn" (100/300) from her hand in Attack Position. Since she controls a Tuner monster, she revives "Dark Verger" (0/1000) in Attack Position. She then tunes "Evil Thorn" and "Dark Verger" with "Twilight Rose Knight" in order to Synchro Summon "Splendid Rose" (2200/2000) in Attack Position. She then activates its effect to banish "Dark Verger" from her Graveyard and halve the ATK of "Necroid Shaman" ("Necroid Shaman": 1900 → 950/1800). Jaden activates his face-down "Hero Ring" and equips it to "Necroid Shaman". Now monsters with 1900 or more ATK can't attack "Necroid Shaman". "Splendid Rose" attacks and destroys the "Ivy Token". The effect of the "Ivy Token" activates (Jaden 2200 → 1900). She then activates the second effect of "Splendid Rose" to banish "Evil Thorn" from her Graveyard in order to halve its ATK ("Splendid Rose": 2200 → 1100/2000) and allow it to attack again. "Splendid Rose" attacks and destroys "Necroid Shaman" (Jaden 1900 → 1750).

**Turn 6: Jaden**

Jaden draws. He then activates "Pot of Greed" to draw two cards. He then uses the effect of the "Necroshade" in his Graveyard to Normal Summon "Elemental Hero Neos" (2500/2000) in Attack Position without Tributing. "Neos" attacks and destroys "Splendid Rose" (Akiza 2100 → 1800). He then Sets two cards.

**Turn 7: Akiza**

Akiza draws. She then Normal Summons "Witch of the Black Rose" (1700/1200) in Attack Position. She then activates its effect to draw one card. If the drawn card isn't a monster, "Witch of the Black Rose" will be destroyed. Akiza draws "Rose Fairy". Akiza then Special Summons "Rose Fairy" (600/1200) in Attack Position via its own effect as she added it from her Deck to her hand via a card effect. Akiza then tunes "Rose Fairy" with "Witch of the Black Rose" in order to Synchro Summon "Black Rose Dragon" (2400/1800) in Attack Position. She then activates its effect to destroy all cards on the field. She then Sets a card.

**Turn 8: Jaden**

Jaden draws "Elemental HERO Bubbleman" and subsequently Normal Summons it (800/1200) in Attack Position. Since Jaden summoned "Bubbleman" while he had no other cards on his side of the field, its effect activates, allowing Jaden to draw two cards. "Bubbleman" attacks directly, but Akiza activates her face-down "Wicked Rebirth" to revive "Black Rose Dragon" (2400/1800) in Attack Position by paying 800 LP (Akiza 1800 → 1000). A replay occurs and Jaden chooses not to attack. He then Sets a card.

**Turn 9: Akiza**

Akiza draws. "Black Rose Dragon" attacks "Bubbleman", but Jaden activates his face-down "Mirror Force" to destroy all Attack Position monsters Akiza controls. She then Sets a card. "Black Rose Dragon" is revived (2400/1800) in Attack Position due to the final effect of "Wicked Rebirth".

**Turn 10: Jaden**

Jaden draws "Take Over Five" and subsequently activates it by sending the top five cards of his Deck ("Elemental Hero Necroshade", "Elemental Hero Neos", "Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab", "Necro Gardna" and "Hero Signal") to the Graveyard. While "Take Over Five" is in Jaden's Graveyard, he is immune to effects that send cards from his Deck to the Graveyard. Jaden then activates "Miracle Contact" to return "Elemental Hero Neos" and "Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab" from his Graveyard to his Deck and Special Summon "Elemental Hero Flare Neos" (2500/2000) in Attack Position. Jaden then activates "Instant Neo Space" and equips it to "Flare Neos". Now "Flare Neos" does not have to return to Jaden's Fusion Deck during the End Phase due to its own effect. Due to the effect of "Flare Neos", it gains 400 ATK for each Spell and Trap Card on the field and there are currently two ("Flare Neos": 2500 → 3300/2000). "Flare Neos" attacks "Black Rose Dragon", but Akiza activates her face-down "Rose Blizzard" to switch "Flare Neos" to Defense Position.

**Turn 11: Akiza**

Akiza draws "Violet Witch" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1100/1200) in Attack Position. activates the second effect of "Black Rose Dragon" to remove from play "Phoenixian Seed" from her Graveyard, switch "Flare Neos" to Attack Position and reduce its ATK to 0 ("Flare Neos": 3300 → 0/2000). "Black Rose Dragon" attacks "Flare Neos", but Jaden removes "Necro Gardna" from her Graveyard from play to negate the attack. "Violet Witch" attacks and destroys "Flare Neos" (Jaden 1750 → 650). The last effect of "Instant Neo Space" then activates, letting Jaden Special Summon "Elemental Hero Neos" (2500/2000) from his Deck in Attack Position. She then Sets a card.

**Turn 12: Jaden**

Jaden draws. During Jaden's Standby Phase, he removes from play "Take Over Five" from his Graveyard in order to draw a card. He then equips "Neos" with "Neos Force", increasing its ATK by 800 ("Neos": 2500 → 3300/2000). "Neos" attacks "Black Rose Dragon", but Akiza activates her face-down "Half Counter" to increase the ATK of "Black Rose Dragon" by half the original ATK of "Neos" ("Black Rose Dragon": 2400 → 3650/1800). Jaden activates the effect of the "Honest" in his hand, sending it to the Graveyard to increase the ATK of "Neos" by the ATK of "Black Rose Dragon" ("Neos": 3300 → 6950/2000). "Neos" then destroys "Black Rose Dragon" (Akiza 1800 → 0).
