Nail manages to reverse engineer the programming of Rush Duels through Kaizo's data and Yuga's actions & behavior, which allows him to discover something unknown to even Yuga himself.Prior to this, Luke also avoids falling into the same trap that Romin did when she Dueled Arai by consciously avoiding Summoning Dragias when he doesn't need to, so Arai doesn't have a valid target to use White Foam - Bleach Motor on.Įpisode 23: That Which Lies Beyond Providence.Arata is able to rearrange his deck and draw the card he wants through all the duel, and Luke manages to stop him through skill alone. Also, noticeably, this time Arai's cheating is not disabled.With 13 cards in his hand and plenty in the graveyard after Arai's deck out strategy failed, Luke manages to get 3 of his ace monsters (Shocklead Dragon, Thrustrike Dragon Bunker Strike, Multistrike Dragon Dragias) on the field to win the duel.And all this while his Leitmotif from the ending of episode 13 plays in the background. Roa makes a comeback in his duel against Getta, sacrificing Royal Demon's Heavymetal of all cards for his new Ace: Royal Demon's Invasion, destroying Getta's strategy and winning the duel in one fell swoop.Luke then attacks with both Rush Dragon Dragears and Bunker Strike, winning the duel. This proves the perfect counter to Lost Cat. This monster's effect allows Luke to draw cards equal to the number of monsters his opponent controls, then choose a number of cards in his hand equal to the number of cards drawn by this effect, and place them all on the top of his deck in any order. The above moment then leads to Luke's awesome comeback in the form of Thrust Dragon Bunker Strike's debut.Yuga won't just give the title to him if he wins it but that doesn't mean the opportunity for Luke to be king doesn't exist. Yuga snapping Luke out of his Heroic BSoD by telling him that the possibility of him becoming King of Duels still exists.If he guess right the attack goes through but if he guesses wrong, the attack is negated Luke takes 300 points worth of damage. When Luke declares an attack, the trap forces Luke to discard a card from the top of his deck and guess what type of card it is. Nekoyama Schrödinger "Lost Card" trap card.Now is the hour to release the crest of our contract and, with your jet-black radiance, confer the hammer of judgment on us! LUKE DEVIL!!Įpisode 17: The Cat in the Garden of Providence
Luke: Oh, ruler of chaos and oblivion that resides within the abyss of my soul. Even after getting interrupted, he gets one more punny jab at Arai's dueling before letting Romin resume the duel. Luke interfering and exposing Arai's cheating with his Pauli Effect (which Gakuto notes he hasn't used in quite some time) to short-circuit the cheating function in Arai's duel disk, allowing Romin to have a fair duel while declaring one of the most badass Magical Incantation s that doesn't involve summoning a card.It must also be noted that her one loss so far involved her both not using her own deck and pretending to know less about dueling than she actually did. Meta example: Romin is now the first Yu-Gi-Oh girl to have two wins before episode 20, the previous record being held by Akiza Isinski/Aki Izayoi at 22 episodes.Going in berserk mode, she uses all the monsters on both to weaken their attack points and Arai's ace one by one, with even the monsters on his side blasting at him once she attacks before finally soloing Clean Beret with Esperaid. After Luke stops Arai from cheating, she performs a combination using a card from Gakuto's duel with her, filling up Arai's side with her monsters from the graveyard. Romin's victory over Arata Arai, including her decision to have to duel to atone for her betrayal and defending Rush Duels.
