## Featured Duel: Sunburst vs. Maud Pie

**Turn 1: Maud**

Maud draws. She then activates "Stone Snail" (Left 2) and "Stone Armadillo" (Right 10) in her Pendulum Zones. She then Pendulum Summons "Stone Serpent" (2100/1500) from her hand in Attack Position. She then Sets a card.

**Tutn 2: Sunburst**

Sunburst draws. He then Normal Summons "Sunburst Familiar" (1200/1000) in Defense Position. He then Sets two cards.

**Turn 3: Maud**

Maud draws. She then Pendulum Summons "Megastone Golem" (2800/3000) from her hand in Attack Position. "Stone Serpent" attacks and destroys "Sunburst Familiar". Sunburst activates his face-down "Light of the Beacons" to Special Summon "UFO Turtle" (1400/1200) from his Deck in Attack Position. Sunburst activates his face-down "Eruption Draw" to draw three cards since a Level 3 monster with 1500 ATK or less was destroyed by battle. Since "Sunburst Familiar" was destroyed by battle, its effect activates, allowing Sunburst to add "Red Sun Magician" and "Blue Sun Magician" from his Deck to his hand. "Megastone Golem" attacks and destroys "UFO Turtle". Since "UFO Turtle" was destroyed by battle, its effect activates, allowing Sunburst to Special Summon "Ashes Magician" (1400/1400) from his Deck in Attack Position. Since "Megastone Golem" attacked, its effect increases its ATK by 200 ("Megastone Golem": 2800 → 3000/3000).

**Turn 4: Sunburst**

Sunburst draws. He then activates "Red Sun Magician" (Left 2) and "Blue Sun Magician" (Right 7) in his Pendulum Zones. He then Pendulum Summons "Burn Blader" (1800/100) and "Sunburst Apprentice" (1500/1300) from his hand in Attack Position. He then Normal Summons "Blaze Wizard" (1200/1100) in Attack Position. Since "Blaze Wizard" was Normal Summoned, its effect activates, allowing Sunburst to add "Sunburst Gate" from his Deck to his hand. He then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Red Sun Magician" to increase the Level of "Ashes Magician" by 3. He then activates "Sunburst Gate" to Tribute "Ashes Magician" and Ritual Summon "Sunburst Knight" (2600/1900) in Attack Position. He then activates the effect of "Sunburst Apprentice" to increase the ATK of "Burn Blader" by 500 ("Burn Blader": 1800 > 2300/100). "Burn Blader" attacks and destroys "Stone Serpent" (Maud 4000 > 3800). Since "Burn Blader" destroyed a monster by battle, its effect activates, inflicting 400 damage to Maud (Maud 3800 → 3400). "Sunburst Magician" attacks "Megastone Golem". This activates the effect of "Sunburst Knight", increasing its ATK by 500 for every other FIRE monster on the field ("Sunburst Knight": 2600 → 4100/1900). "Sunburst Knight" then destroys "Megastone Golem" (Maud 3400 > 2300). Since a Rock-Type monster was destroyed by battle, Maud activates her face-down "Rubble Summon" to Special Summon "Stone Rhino" (800/1800) and "Stone Eagle" (1900/1300) from her Deck in Attack Position.

**Turn 5: Maud**

Maud draws. She then finds and activates the Action Card "Mystical Fertilizer" to banish "Megastone Golem" from her Graveyard and add one monster from her Deck to her hand whose Level is equal to that of "Megastone Golem". She adds " Giga-Rock Titan Gaia". She then Pendulum Summons "Stone Serpent" (2100/1500) from her Extra Deck and "Giga-Rock Titan Gaia" (3000/3000) from her hand in Attack Position. She then activates the effect of "Gaia" to Tribute "Stone Serpent" and increase its ATK by the ATK of "Stone Serpent" ("Gaia": 3000 > 5100/3000). "Gaia" attacks "Burn Blader", but Sunburst finds and activates the Action Card "Power Magnet" to redirect the attack to "Sunburst Knight", destroying it instead (Sunburst 4000 → 1500). "Stone Eagle" attacks and destroys "Burn Blader" (Sunburst 1500 > 1400). She then switches "Stone Rhino" to Defense Position.

**Turn 6: Sunburst**

Sunburst draws. He then activates "Eruption Reload" to banish "UFO Turtle" from his Graveyard and draw four cards. 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 the Pendulum Effect of "Red Sun Magician" to increase the Level of "Blaze Wizard" by 3 ("Blaze Wizard": Level 3 → 6). He then activates "Sunburst Gate" to Tribute "Blaze Wizard" and Ritual Summon "Sunburst Ravager" (2000/1800) in Attack Position.

Due to the effect of "Sunburst Ravager", it can attack up to a number of times equal to the number of monsters Sunburst controls. He then Pendulum Summons "Sunburst Guardian" (1400/1800) and "Yellow Sun Magician" (2200/1800) from his hand in Defense Position. He then equips "Sunburst Ravager" with "Blazing Aura", increasing its ATK by 500 for every other FIRE monster on the field ("Sunburst Ravager": 2000 → 3500/1800). He then activates the effect of "Sunburst Apprentice" to increase the ATK of "Sunburst Ravager" by 500 ("Sunburst Ravager": 3500 → 4000/1800). "Sunburst Ravager" attacks and destroys "Gaia" (Maud 2300 → 1300).

"Sunburst Ravager" attacks "Stone Eagle", but Maud finds and activates the Action Card "Unblooming" to pay 500 LP (Maud 1300 → 800) and switch "Stone Eagle" to Defense Position. "Sunburst Ravager" then destroys "Stone Eagle". "Sunburst Ravager" attacks and destroys "Stone Rhino". "Sunburst Ravager" attacks Maud directly, but Maud activates the Pendulum Effect of "Stone Armadillo" to destroy it and "Stone Snail" and Special Summon "Stone Sentry" (1400/1300) from her Deck in Attack Position. A replay occurs and "Sunburst Ravager" attacks and destroys "Stone Sentry".

**Turn 7: Maud**

Maud draws. She then activates the effect of the "Stone Sentry" in her Graveyard, banishing it to draw two cards. She then activates "Stone Crocodile" (Left 2) and "Stone Penguin" (Right 5) in her Pendulum Zones. She then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Stone Crocodile" to double the Pendulum Scale of "Stone Penguin". She then Pendulum Summons "Gaia" (3000/3000), "Stone Serpent" (2100/1500), "Stone Rhino" (800/1800), "Stone Eagle" (1900/1300) and "Stone Armadillo" (400/2000) from her Extra Deck in Attack Position. She then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Stone Penguin" to swap the ATK and DEF of "Stone Rhino" ("Stone Rhino": 800/1800 → 1800/800). She then activates the effect of "Gaia" to Tribute "Stone Armadillo" ("Gaia": 3000 → 3400/3000). "Stone Serpent" attacks and destroys "Sunburst Guardian" ("Sunburst Ravager": 3500 → 3000/1800). "Stone Eagle" attacks and destroys "Yellow Sun Magician" ("Sunburst Ravager": 3000 → 2500/1800). "Stone Rhino" attacks and destroys "Sunburst Apprentice" ("Sunburst Ravager": 2500 → 2000/1800). "Gaia" attacks and destroys "Sunburst Ravager" (Sunburst 1300 → 0).
