## Featured Duel: Sunburst vs. Tempest Shadow

**Turn 15: Tempest**

Tempest draws. She then Normal Summons "Storm Guard Dominator Spear" (1800/800) in Attack Position. She then activates "Lightning Burst" to destroy all face-up Spells and Traps Sunburst controls. She then activates "Tribute to the Doomed" to discard one card and destroy "Great Sage of Sunburst". Since "Great Sage of Sunburst" was destroyed by a card effect, its effect activates, placing itself (Left 1) in Sunburst's Left Pendulum Zone. "Spear" attacks Sunburst directly, but Sunburst activates his face-down "Draining Shield" to negate the attack and increase his LP by the ATK of "Spear" (Sunburst 1700 → 3500). She then Sets a card.

**Turn 16: Sunburst**

Sunburst draws. He then activates "Pink Sun Magician" (Right 8) in his Left Pendulum Zone. He then Pendulum Summons "Red Sun Magician" (1600/1300) and "Green Sun Magician"  (1400/1300) from his Extra Deck and "Ashes Magician" (1400/1400) from his hand in Attack Position. He then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Pink Sun Magician" to send "Sunburst Gate" from his Deck to the Graveyard and activate its effect, Tributing "Red Sun Magician" and "Ashes Magician" to Ritual Summon "Sunburst Ranger" (2300/1500) in Attack Position. Tempest activates her face-down "Burst Lightning" to prevent "Ranger" from attacking and reduce its ATK by 500 ("Ranger": 2300 → 1800/1500). He then activates the effect of "Ranger" to Tribute "Green Sun Magician" and destroy "Burst Lightning" ("Ranger": 1800 → 2300/1500) and increase its ATK by 300 ("Ranger": 2300 → 2600/1500). He then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Great Mage of Sunburst" to increase the ATK of "Ranger" by 500 ("Ranger": 2600 → 3100/1500). Tempest finds and activates the Action Card "Power Charger" to increase the ATK of "Spear" by 500 ("Spear": 1800 → 2300/800). "Ranger" attacks and destroys "Spear" (Tempest 4000 → 3200). He then Sets two cards.

**Turn 17: Tempest**

Tempest draws. She then activates "Spine-Hog Dominator" (Left 1) and "Tempest Unicorn Dominator" (Right 8) in her Pendulum Zones. She then Pendulum Summons "Tempest Rogue Dominator Scarvolt" (2500/2000) and "Storm Guard Dominator Glaive" (1900/1200) from her hand in Attack Position. Since Tempest Pendulum Summoned, the Pendulum Effect of "Spine-Hog Dominator" activates, allowing Tempest to draw two cards (One card for every monster Pendulum Summoned). Since "Scarvolt" was Special Summoned, its effect activates, dominating "Ranger". She then activates "Dominator Lightning" to increase the ATK of "Glaive" by 500 until the End Phase ("Glaive": 1900 → 2400/1200). She then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Tempest Unicorn Dominator" to increase the ATK of "Glaive" by 200 for every dominated monster on the field ("Glaive": 2400 → 2600/1200). "Glaive" attacks and destroys "Ranger" (Sunburst 3500 → 3200). Sunburst activates his face-down "Light of the Beacons" to Special Summon "Sunburst Guardian" (1400/1800) from his Deck in Attack Position. "Scarvolt" attacks "Guardian". Due to the second effect of "Scarvolt", "Guardian" isn't destroyed by battle and the Battle Damage is halved (Sunburst 3200 → 2650).

**Turn 18: Sunburst**

Sunburst draws. He then Pendulum Summons "Red Sun Magician" (1600/1300) and "Green Sun Magician" (1400/1300) from his Extra Deck and "Sunburst Familiar" (1200/1000) from his hand in Attack Position. He then activates the effect of the "Ashes Magician" in his Graveyard, banishing it to add "Sunburst Gate" from his Graveyard to his hand. He then activates "Sunburst Gate" to Tribute "Green Sun Magician" and "Familiar" in order to Ritual Summon "Sunburst Knight" (2600/1900) in Attack Position. He then activates his face-down "DNA Transplant" and declares FIRE for its effect. Now all monsters on the field and in both player's Graveyards. He then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Great Sage of ("Knight": 2600 → 3100/1900). "Knight" attacks "Scarvolt". This activates the effect of "Knight", increasing its ATK by 500 for every FIRE monster on the field. There are currently four ("Knight": 3100 → 5100/1900). "Knight" then destroys "Scarvolt" (3200 → 600). He then switches "Guardian" to Defense Position. He then equips "Knight" with "Battle Ready", making its effect become permanent ("Knight": 2600 → 4600/1900).

**Turn 19: Tempest**

Tempest draws. She then Pendulum Summons "Scarvolt" (2500/2000) from her Extra Deck and "Storm Guard Dominator Ryyk" (2000/1900) from her hand in Attack Position. The Pendulum Effect of "Spine-Hog Dominator" activates, allowing Tempest to draw two cards. The effect of "Scarvolt" activates, dominating "Knight" and "Red Sun Magician". She then uses the effect of the "Storm Guard Dominator Chain Claw" in her Graveyard to Normal Summon "Storm Guard Dominator Flail" in Attack Position. She then equips "Scarvolt" with "Staff of Sacanas", increasing its ATK by 500 ("Scarvolt": 2500 → 3000/2000). She then activates the second effect of "Staff of Sacanas" to Tribute "Scarvolt", "Ryyk" and "Glaive" in order to Special Summon "Storm King Dominator" (4000/4000) in Attack Position. She then activates "Dominator Lightning" to increase the ATK of "Storm King Dominator" by 500 for every Dominated monster ("Storm King Dominator": 4000 → 5000/4000). "Flail" attacks and destroys "Guardian" ("Knight": 4600 → 4100/1900). Since "Flail" destroyed a monster by battle, its effect activates, destroying "Red Sun Magician" ("Knight": 4100 → 3600/1900). "Storm King Dominator" attacks and destroys "Knight" (Sunburst 2650 → 1250). She then Sets a card.

**Turn 20: Sunburst**

Sunburst draws. He then Pendulum Summons "Red Sun Magician" (1600/1300) and "Green Sun Magician" (1400/1300) from his Extra Deck and "Yellow Sun Magician" (2600/1300) from his hand in Attack Position. He then activates the second Pendulum Effecr of "Great Sage of Sunburst" to banish "Ranger", "Magician" and "Knight" from his Graveyard and Special Summon itself (3500/3000) from the Pendulum Zone in Attack Position. He then activates its effect to revive "Sunburst Archmage" (3000/2500) in Attack Position, negate its effects and have "Great Sage of Sunburst" gain those effects. He then activates its granted effect to Tribute "Archmage", reduce the ATK of "Storm King Dominator" by its ATK ("Storm King Dominator": 4000 → 1000/4000) and increase its ATK by half the same amount ("Great Sage of Sunburst": 3500 → 5000/3000). "Great Sage of Sunburst" attacks "Storm King Dominator", but Tempest finds and activates the Action Card "Doppelganger Trap" to activate the effect of the "Draining Shield" in Sunburst's Graveyard, negating the attack and increasing her LP by its ATK (Tempest 600 → 5600). "Yellow Sun Magician" attacks "Storm King Dominator", but Tempest activates her face-down "Dominator Pride" to increase the ATK of "Storm King Dominator" by half the difference between both players' LP ("Storm King Dominator": 1000 → 5350/4000). A replay occurs and Sunburst chooses not to attack. On Sunburst's End Phase, "Archmage" is destroyed via the effect of "Great Sage of Sunburst".

**Turn 21: Tempest**

Tempest draws. She then Pendulum Summons "Ryyk" (2000/1500) from her Extra Deck in Attack Position. Since "Ryyk" was Special Summoned, its effect activates, allowing Tempest to add "Staff of Sacanas" from her Graveyard to her hand. She then activates "Dominator Blitz" to place "Storm King Dominator" on the bottom of her Deck, inflict damage to herself equal to half its ATK (Tempest 5350 → 3600) and inflict damage to Sunburst equal to twice the same amount (Sunburst 1250 → 0).
