"Maiden of Great Bloom" destroys "Sun Sabre Swordsman" (Sunset 4000 > 3100).

Since Sunset controls a monster and Sweetie doesn't, she Special Summons "Solo the Melodious Songstress" (1600/1000) from her hand in Attack Position via its own effect. She then Normal Summons "Soprano the Melodious Songstress" (1400/1400) in Attack Position. She then activates the effect of "Soprano the Melodious Songstress" to fuse it with "Solo the Melodious Songstress" in order to Fusion Summon "Schubert's the Melodious Maestra" (2400/2000) in Attack Position.

She then Sets a card.

**Turn 7: Scootaloo**

Scootaloo draws. She then activates "Earthquake" to switch all monsters her opponent controls to Defense Position. She then activates "Last Ditch Effort" to revive "Wild Rush Raptor" (2000/2000) in Attack Position, but it will be destroyed during the End Phase. "Wild Rush Raptor" attacks and destroys "Dual Cannon Phoenix". During the End Phase, the effect of "Last Ditch Effort" destroys "Wild Rush Raptor". She then Sets a card.

**Turn 8: Sunset**

Sunset draws. She then activates "Rebirth Flare" to allow all of her opponents to revive one monster in their Graveyard. Scootaloo Special Summons "Wild Rush Raptor" (2000/2000) in Attack Position, Applebloom Special Summons "Maiden of Great Bloom" (2200/2400) in Attack Position and Sweetie Special Summons "Schuberta" (2400/2000) in Attack Position. After that happens, the effect of "Rebirth Flare" allows Sunset to add three cards from her Deck to her hand.

She then activates the effect of her two "Sunburn Magicians" to Tribute themselves and increase the ATK of "Solar Flare Phoenix" by 2000 until the End Phase ("Solar Flare Phoenix": 2500 > 4500/2100) and allow it to attack three times. "Solar Flare Phoenix" attacks and destroys all three monsters (Sweetie 2000 > 0; Applebloom 1800 > 0; Scootaloo 2200 > 0).
