## Featured Duels

### Quattro vs. Mizar

Duel continues from the 6th turn. Mizar controls "Number C107: Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" (4500/3000) in Attack Position, two face-downs and 3100 LP. Quattro controls no cards and 1400 LP.

**Turn 7: Quattro**

Quattro draws. He then activates "Triangle Gimmick Box" to banish "Number 15: Gimmick Puppet Giant Grinder", "Chaos Number 15: Gimmick Puppet Giant Hunter" and "Number 40: Gimmick Puppet of Strings" (which are all Xyz Monsters) from his Graveyard in order to Special Summon "Number 88: Gimmick Puppet of Leo" ([1]8/3200/2300) from his Extra Deck in Attack Position, ignoring its Summoning conditions, while negating its effects. Quattro activates "Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force" to Rank-Up "Gimmick Puppet of Leo" via Chaos Xyz Evolution in order to Xyz Summon "Chaos Number 88: Gimmick Puppet Disaster Leo" ([2]9/3500/2500, ORU: 1) in Attack Position. Quattro activates the third effect of "Gimmick Puppet Disaster Leo" to detach "Gimmick Puppet of Leo" ("Gimmick Puppet Disaster Leo": 1 → 0 ORU) and inflict 4000 damage to Mizar, Mizar activates his face-down "Damage Rebound" to reduce the damage he would take to 0 and force his opponents to shuffle a face-up card they control into the Deck. If that card was a monster, they will take damage equal to its ATK on the field. Quattro chooses "Disaster Leo" (Quattro 1400 → 0).

### Yuma Tsukumo vs. Mizar

**Turn 1: Yuma**

Yuma draws. Yuma Normal Summons "Tasuke Knight" (1700/100) in Attack Position. As he controls a Level 4 monster, Yuma Special Summons "Doggy Diver" ([3]4/1000/1000) in Attack Position via its own effect. Yuma overlays "Gogogo Golem" and "Doggy Diver" in order to Xyz Summon "Number 39: Utopia" ([4]4/2500/2000, ORU: 2) in Attack Position. Yuma Sets a card.

**Turn 2: Mizar**

Mizar draws. As Yuma controls a monster with 2000 or more ATK, Mizar Special Summons "Schwarzschild Limit Dragon" ([5]8/2000/0) in Attack Position via its own effect. He then Special Summons the second "Schwarzschild Limit Dragon" ([6]8/2000/0) in Attack Position via its own effect. Mizar overlays his two copies of "Schwarzschild Limit Dragon" in order to Xyz Summon "Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" ([7]8/3000/2500, ORU: 2) in Attack Position. "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" attacks "Utopia" and Mizar activates "Tachyon Drive" to make "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" (a "Tachyon Dragon" monster) immune to Spell/Trap Cards this turn. Yuma activates his face-down "Half Unbreak" to prevent his monster from being destroyed by battle this turn and halve all Battle Damage involving it (Yuma 4000 → 3750). Mizar activates the effect of "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon", detaching an Overlay Unit[Notes 1] ("Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon": 2 → 1 ORU) to negate the effects of all other face-up monsters on the field, increase the ATK of "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" by 1000 for each card effect that resolved during the Battle Phase ("Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon": 3000 → 5000 ATK), and allow it to attack again. "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" attacks "Utopia" (Yuma 3750 → 2500). Mizar Sets a card.

**Turn 3: Yuma**

Yuma draws. He then equips "Utopia" with "Reverse Breaker", whose effect allows him to destroy a Set Spell/Trap Card his opponent controls whenever the equipped monster declares an attack, while also preventing the opponent from activating Spell/Trap Cards in response to this effect. He then equips "Utopia" with "Magnum Shield" which increases the ATK of "Utopia" by its DEF since it's in Attack Position ("Heroic Champion - Excalibur": 2500 → 4500 ATK). "Utopia" attacks "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" and Yuma activates the effect of "Reverse Breaker" to destroy Mizar's face-down. "Utopia" then destroys "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" (Mizar 4000 → 2500). Yuma Sets a card.

**Turn 4: Mizar**

Mizar draws. He then activates "Rank-Up-Magic - The Seventh One" to Special Summon "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" ([8]8/3000/2500) (a "Number 10X" monster) in Attack Position with its effects negated and subsequently Rank-Up "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" via Chaos Xyz Evolution in order to Xyz Summon "Chaos Number 107: Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" ([9]9/4500/3000, ORU: 1) in Attack Position. Mizar activates the effect of "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" to detach "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" ("Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon": 1 → 0 ORU), negate the effects of all other face-up cards on the field until the End Phase, negate the effects of all activated cards this turn, and return all cards to the same position they were in at the start of the turn; "Rank-Up-Magic - The Seventh One" returns to Mizar's hand. "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" attacks and destroys "Utopia" (Yuma 2500 → 500). Mizar Sets a card.

**Turn 5: Yuma**

Yuma draws. He then activates "Xyz Revival" to revive "Utopia" ([10]4/2500/2000) in Attack Position. Yuma then overlays "Utopia" with itself via Chaos Xyz Evolution in order to Xyz Summon "Chaos Number 39: Utopia Ray" ([11]4/2500/2000, ORU: 1) in Attack Position. Yuma then activates "Xyz Treasure" to draw four cards (one for each face-up Xyz Monster on the field). He then equips "Phoenix Bow" to "Utopia Ray" from his hand via its own effect, increasing its ATK by 1100 ("Utopia Ray": 2500 → 3600 ATK). "Utopia Ray" attacks "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" and destroys itself, but Yuma then activates the second effect of "Phoenix Bow" to destroy "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon", reduce the battle damage inflicted to 0, and inflict 1000 damage to Mizar (Mizar 2500 → 1500). Yuma then activates "Xyz Stand" to revive "Utopia Ray" ([12]4/2500/2000) in Attack Position with its effects negated and forbidding it from attacking this turn (as an Xyz Monster was destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard this turn). Yuma Sets a card.

**Turn 6: Mizar**

Instead of conducting his normal draw, Mizar activates the second effect of "Tachyon Chaos Hole" to revive "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" ([13]9/4500/3000) in Attack Position (as it's a "Tachyon" monster). Mizar activates his face-down "Instant Overlay" to attach this card as an Overlay Unit to "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" as it doesn't have any Overlay Units ("Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon": 0 → 1 ORU). Mizar activates the effect of "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" to detach "Instant Overlay" ("Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon": 1 → 0 ORU), negate the effects of all other face-up cards on the field until the End Phase, negate the effects of all activated cards this turn, and return all cards to the same position they were in at the start of the turn, but Yuma activates an unknown Trap Card (Because the internet refuses to show me what it is) to negate the effect of "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" and switch it to Defense Position.

**Turn 7: Yuma**

Yuma draws. Yuma Sets two cards and switches "Utopia Ray" to Defense Position.

**Turn 8: Mizar**

Mizar draws. He then activates "Galactic Charity" to discard "Energy Attractor" and draw two cards. Mizar switches "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" to Attack Position. "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" attacks "Utopia Ray", but Yuma activates his face-down "Overtraining" to prevent "Utopia Ray" from being destroyed by battle or by card effects this turn. Mizar Sets two cards. Yuma activates his face-down "Session Draw", allowing him to draw two cards during his next Draw Phase. Should Yuma draw monsters with the same Level, Yuma can Xyz Summon an Xyz Monster using those two cards only.

**Turn 9: Yuma**

Yuma performs a Destiny Shining Draw due to "Session Draw" and gets "Zexal Weapon - Tornado Bringer" and "Zexal Weapon - Lightning Blade". Using the effect of "Session Draw," Yuma overlays "Lightning Blade" and "Tornado Bringer" in order to Xyz Summon "ZW - Leo Arms" ([14]5/3000/1200) in Attack Position. Yuma activates the first effect of "Leo Arms", equipping it to "Utopia Ray" and increasing its ATK by 3000 ("Utopia Ray": 2500 → 5500 ATK) (this effect can't be negated as per the condition of the first effect of "Leo Arms). Yuma switches "Utopia Ray" to Attack Position. Yuma activates the last effect of "Leo Arms" to negate the effects of "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" and halve its ATK ("Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" 4500 → 2250 ATK). "Utopia Ray" attacks and destroys "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" (Mizar 1500 → 0).
