Yu-gi-oh! Infinity Gathering Tournament!

[ruga650]

Ruga chuckles as his Masked Dragon was destroyed. [color=#800080]"I'll use this one's effect to Special Summon Armed Dragon LV 3!"[/color] A orange and tan dragon appears in front of him, looking at the enemy. It shivers and eeps. [color=#800080]"It's okay, little one. You're safe for now."[/color] The dragon looks at Ruga and nods before glaring at the enemy. [color=#800080]"You done yet?"[/color]

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]I was expecting that. I'll enter Main Phase 2 and activate '[url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Enemy_Controller"]Enemy Controller[/url]'. By sacrificing my 'Disciple', I'm allowed to take your Dragon.[/color]"

The warrior disappears in a hope to take the enemy to his side.

[ruga650]

Ruga chuckles. [color=#800080]"What are you going to do with him? Once you end your turn, he's mine again." [/color]He snickers. It's clear he was expecting a Synchro or Xyz with that move. And since his foe still had his normal summon due to the fact he special summoned that gem-warrior, he could do it. [color=#800080]"Or did you not think about that?"[/color] He watches more, curious as to what will happen now that his Armed Dragon has swapped sides.

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]Oh, I remembered all right, that's why I'm going to tribute it and my 'Power Giant' for 'Buster Blader', the bane of Dragon decks.[/color]" A warrior in purple armor appears before Ahalail. "[color=#ff0000][i]I didn't think he'd actually come in handy. This is going to be fun. [/i]Since you now have 3 Dragon-type Monsters in your Grave, he gains 1500 ATK. That puts him at 4100 ATK total. And since only one monster went to my Grave, I take 300 points of damage from your 'Coffin Seller'.[/color]"

[b]Ahalail's LP: 3700[/b]
[b]Ruga's LP: 4000[/b]

"[i][color=#ff0000]I can't believe that my chip is actually working. It's been on the fritz for months.[/color][/i]"

[ruga650]

Ruga laughs. [color=#800080]"I was expecting Buster Blader! That's why I did this!" [/color]He moves his hand over and slightly growls. His face stands upright, showing a green fiend falling down a red pit in a purple field of souls. [color=#800080]"Bottomless Trap Hole! Your warrior is removed from the game!"[/color] He growls as he watches a glowing red hole appears under the warrior.

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000][i]Figures.[/i] I guess I'll just use 'Monster Reborn' to bring back my 'Power Giant'.[/color]" "Power Giant" reappears one Ahalail's field.

"[color=#ff0000]And with that, I'll have to end my turn.[/color]"

[ruga650]

Ruga draws a card and chuckles. [color=#800080]"This will be interesting... I use Banner of Courage. Now during my Battle Phase, all of my Monsters gain 200 ATK. Now for some real fun!" [/color]He chuckles and raises a card in the air, turning it around. [color=#800080]"I use the Field Spell Mountain!" [/color]The area becomes surrounded by a wonderful mountain range. [color=#800080]"Now I shall do this. I will remove from play a Blue-Eyes White Dragon from my Deck to Special Summon Malefic Blue-Eyes White Dragon!" [/color]A Blue-Eyes White Dragon appears, but roars as black and white armor covers it's body. [color=#800080]"I will place this card face-down and have my Dragon attack your Power Giant!"[/color] The dragon rears it's head and several blue beams shoot from between it's teeth. It flicks it's neck and roars, sending a large beam of energy at the crystal warrior.

LP: 4000
Hand: 0
Monsters: Malefic Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3400/2900) {attacking}
Spells/Traps: Banner of Courage, Mountain, 1 fd

[Xaqairy]

"[i][color=#ff0000]This is gonna hurt. I didn't expect that at all.[/color][/i]" MBEWD's attack shatters Power Giant into pieces. Coffin Seller's effect also activates dealing another 300 points of damage.

[b]Ahalail's LP: 2200[/b]
[b]Ruga's LP: 4000[/b]

[ruga650]

Ruga chuckles and growls lightly again. [color=#800080]"Weren't expecting such a power-hitter so early, did you? When I pulled Armed Dragon out, you thought I was going to level him up. I already had that move planned out. Even if you stop one move, I have many more."[/color] He points at Ahalail. [color=#800080]"Go ahead. Draw your card. On my next turn, my Dragon will attack, destroying you."[/color]

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]Very well, I draw. I will set a monster. I set the last card in my hand and end my turn. [i]This isn't looking good at all.[/i][/color]"

[ruga650]

Ruga chuckles. [color=#800080]"I draw. Now I use this." [/color]He moves his hand over. [color=#800080]"Skill Drain. Normally, if Mountain was destroyed, my Malefic would be suicidal because there wouldn't be a field spell. But now Skill Drain is up, meaning he will remain here even if Mountain is destroyed."[/color] He chuckles and looks at his card. [color=#800080]"I summon Twin-Headed Behemoth."[/color] He looks over at a two-headed purple dragon with a red and a blue mouth. It glares at Ahalail, growling. [color=#800080]"My Malefic will attack."[/color] Once again, the sin dragon roars, sending another shockwave which heads right towards the face-down.

LP: 4000
Hand: 0
Monsters: Malefic Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3400/2700) {attacking}, Twin-Headed Behemoth (1900/1400)
Spells/Traps: Skill Drain, Mountain, Banner of Courage

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]My facedown is '[url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Stygian_Security"]Stygian Security[/url]'. When destroyed by battle, I'm allowed to Special Summon a level 1 Fiend-type from my Deck. I choose '[url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Sinister_Sprocket"]Sinister Sprocket[/url]' in defense. Skill Drain doesn't affect my 'Security' because his effect activates in the Grave. I'm safe for another turn.[/color]"

[ruga650]

Ruga chuckles. [color=#800080]"Yes you are. Since my Malefic keeps me from doing so, even if Skill Drain is up, I won't attack with my Behemoth and simply end my turn."[/color] He chuckles, wondering what good that machine will do.

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]I draw. Since my monsters have no effects due to Skill Drain, I Set a Monster. [i]That Skill Drain is only helping him. There's no way for me to destroy it, I'll have to be on the defensive for now. That's irony at its best. He was on the defensive at the start, and now I'm the one defending. It seems that I may not be able to do much with this deck after all. I can only hope that it won't end too badly. I couldn't Synchro Summon since the beginning of the duel because of one mistake. This deck has too many weak cards in it to do anything without Synchros.[/i][/color][i]" [/i]

[ruga650]

Ruga draws and chuckles. [color=#800080]"Okay... I tribute my Malefic Blue-Eyes for Gravi-Crush Dragon."[/color] He watches the armored dragon disappear and be replaced by a green dragon with red claws, metal prisoner shackles, and metal plating on the back of it's neck. [color=#800080]"I use his effect. Ditching my banner to destroy your face-down."[/color] He watches the banner become a black sphere which goes between the dragon's giant claws. It crushes the sphere and the resulting shockwave blasts the face-down Monster. [color=#800080]"Now I shall use Behemoth to crush your Sprocket." [/color]He looks at the twin-headed dragon, snickering as it fires two beams of energy beams at the machine, the beams swirling around each other.

LP: 4000
Hand: 0
Monsters: Gravi-Crush Dragon (2600/1400), Twin-Headed Behemoth (1700/1400) {attacking defense mode Sinister Sprocket}
Spells/Traps: Skill Drain, Mountain

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]Due to the effect of Skill Drain, you are unable to use Gravi-Crush Dragon's effect. It is nullified before it even has a chance to activate. Are you still going to attack my Sprocket? [i]What is he up to. He should know his own cards' effects. He's good, but I didn't think he'd forget something as simple as Skill Drain. I just don't get it.[/i][/color]"

He moves as if to activate his trap but decides to wait for his opponent to fix his mistake.

OOC: There was nothing I could do to make this post longer. There simply was no way to expand.

[ruga650]

Ruga chuckles. [color=#800080]"Of course. My bad memory once again interrupts my dueling strategy."[/color] He presses a few buttons on his Duel Disk and his banner reappears. [color=#800080]"Sorry about that. I've been known to have a bad memory and sometimes forget my own field."[/color] He bows in respect and looks at his opponent. [color=#800080]"You were going to activate something?"[/color]

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]Yes, I'm going to activate my trap card 'Tuners' Barrier'. My 'Sinister Sprocket' is unable to be destroyed this turn. [i]What kind of duelist forgets his own field? [/i]Are you going to continue your attack? [i]I just hope I can last long enough to see this through. [/i]As you can see the only monster that you can destroy is my facedown, but even then, it's not a certain destruction.[/color]" Ahalail passes the "baton" back to his opponent.

Field:
Sinister Sprocket [protected by Barrier]; face down monster
No hand

[b]Ahalail's LP: 2200[/b]
[b]Ruga's LP: 4000[/b]

[ruga650]

Ruga looks at Arma and nods. He looks over. [color=#800080]"Gravi-Crush Dragon shall do what he does best and crush your face-down then."[/color] The green dragon snickers. It rushes forward as a black sphere appears above the set Monster. Ruga watches carefully. He looks at his Skill Drain card, and then at his Deck. [color=#800080][i]'If I can't break Skill Drain, his death will be slower than I wish it to be... But then again... Even with Skill Drain up, he will only have Sprocket and one other Monster guarding him on my next turn... Unless, of course... That set Monster is somehow strong enough to block my Dragon's attack... But how could it...? I haven't heard of that many monsters, if any, that are Level 4 or under and have at least 2500 DEF... And even so, my dragon now has 2800 because of Mountain and my Banner... So what could that face-down be that can block my attack?'[/i][/color]

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]Unfortunately for me, but fortunate for you, I was bluffing. I reveal my face down 'Junk Synchron'. [i]D**n. I was hoping he would wait a turn. But maybe my next couple of cards will help.[/i][/color]"

Junk Synchron is crushed by the Dragon. "[color=#ff0000]I'm down to my last card on the field. Are you done with your turn? I think the tournament might be starting soon. [i]I just hope I won't have to go against him again anytime soon. I've seen what his deck could do in just one turn. I may have to change up after this.[/i][/color]"

[ruga650]

Ruga nods. [color=#800080]"Since you entertained me, at least for a bit, I will spare you once this is over."[/color] He chuckles as Arma flies back over onto his shoulder, signalling that she believed the Duel was about to end or something major was about to happen. [color=#800080]"Go ahead. You have the floor. For now."[/color] He chuckles again as he folds his arms.

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]Ok, then. [i]This couldn't have come at a better time. [/i] I activate 'Swords of Revealing Light'. For your next three turns, you will be unable to attack with any of your monsters. [i]I just hope . . . . [/i][/color]" Ahalail's thought trails off as if he senses someone might be reading his thoughts. "[i]That's a strange feeling. I wonder if I might pull through this after all.[/i]"

Field:
Sinister Sprocket
Swords of Revealing Light
Still no Hand

Grave: Disciple, Drago, Giant, Junk, Security, Barrier, Controller, MR.

[b]Ahalail's LP: 1300 (forgot about 3 monsters and CS)[/b]
[b]Ruga's LP: 4000 (Still!?)[/b]

[ruga650]

Ruga draws a card and chuckles as his irises become reptile-like slits. [color=#800080]"I can't attack you, but I can scare you..."[/color] He raises a card into the air. [color=#800080]"I use Dragon's Mirror!"[/color] A large mirror with a golden frame appears behind Ruga. [color=#800080]"I remove from play both Masked Dragons, Armed Dragon LV 3, and the Malefic in my Graveyard along with my Behemoth!" [/color]The cards in his Graveyard appear in his hand as the dragons' spirits fly into the mirror with Twin-Headed Behemoth. He laughs as five beams of energy shoot from the mirror, each a different attribute. [color=#800080]"The powers of five in one body! Show yourself and mark the end of this Duel! FIVE-HEADED DRAGON!"[/color] A loud roar is heard as the mirror ripples like water. A large golden dragon with five heads, each representing a different attribute, comes out of the mirror. [color=#800080]"See the powers of the Dragons? Those swords won't protect you for long!"[/color] He laughs again and looks at his foe. [color=#800080]"But alas, I cannot attack because of them. So I shall end my turn."[/color] Five-Headed Dragon growls at Ahalail, it's eyes glowing darkly.

LP: 4000
Hand: 0
Monsters: Five-Headed Dragon (5200/5200) and Gravi-Crush Dragon (2600/1400)
Spells/Traps: Mountain, Coffin Seller, Skill Drain, Banner of Courage

[Xaqairy]

"[color=#ff0000]That's one sword gone. [i]Why does my deck hate me so much today?! I can't seem to get anything good. [/i] I play the spell card 'Pot of Avarice'. I select the only five monsters in my grave. Unless you have something to stop the effect, they will be added back to my deck. [i]As long as Skill Drain is on the field, Five-Headed Dragon is vulnerable, but that also means that I'm pretty much powerless without Spells and traps.[/i][/color]" The strange looking pot prepares to swallow the five monsters and add them to the deck.

[ruga650]

Ruga watches the pot 'eat' the cards and then 'eats' Ahalail's Deck, mixing the cards before placing all but two of them into the Deck Slot. The pot then 'pukes' the two cards it didn't place in the Deck Slot into Ahalail's hand before breaking. [color=#800080]"That card always disgusted me when it did that..."[/color]
