We went to a card shop and unfortunately they didn't have any interesting cards for my deck. But we found a few cards that could help Yuma make a deck centered around Gagaga a little more. It's not perfect but it's enough for now
List of cards bought :
Monsters :
×1 Gagaga Head
×1 Zubabancho Gagagacoat
×1 Gagaga Gardna
Spell :
×1 The warrior Returning alive
×1 Stray lamb
×1 Gagaga Academy emergency network
Trap :
×1 Mirror force
×1 Guard Go !
"Alright ! With these cards, Shark doesn't stand a chance !" Yuma declared confidently.
I shook my head "You're jumping ahead again, Yuma. These cards won't win you the duel by themselves. You need to understand how to use them."
Bronk nodded in agreement "Shenlong's right. You've got new cards but Shark isn't going to go easy on you. If you don't play smart, he'll crush you."
"That's why we're going to duel !" I said, turning on my Duel Disk.
We headed to an open space near the shop for a practice duel. Yuma seemed excited but a little nervous.
"Yuma, go first." I said as we drew 5 cards.
[Shenlong : 4.000 LP]
[Yuma : 4.000 LP]
Yuma drew his first card and grinned "I use Dian Keto the Cure Master to increase my Life Points by 1.000 !"
[Yuma : 4.000 LP → 5.000 LP]
"Then I set one monster face-down and end my turn !"
I drew and smirked as i looked at my hand.
[Shenlong's hand:
- A legendary ocean
-Kashitara Ogre
- Megalosmasher X
- Ocean Dragon Lord – Kairyu-Shin
- Amphibious Bugroth MK-11
- Ice Knight ]
"Since I have no monsters on my field, I Special Summon Kashitara Ogre in Attack Position using its effect !"
A towering humanoid beast with red armor and glowing red eyes appeared.
Kashitara Ogre
Water/Psychic – Level 7
[ATK 2.800/DEF 1.000]
"Whoa, 2.800 ATK on your first turn ? That's insane !" Bronk said, his eyes widening.
"Shenlong's not playing around. Yuma, you're in trouble." Tori muttered, crossing her arms.
Yuma winced but tried to keep his confidence "It's just one monster. I can handle it !"
"Next, I Normal Summon Ice Knight in Attack Position." I continued.
A sleek, icy warrior holding a frozen blade materialized beside Kashitara Ogre. It looked tiny in comparison to it.
Ice Knight
Water/Aqua – Level 4
[ATK 1.300/DEF 1.200] → [ATK 1.700/DEF 1.200] (Ice Knight's effect)
"And now, I activate the spell A Legendary Ocean !" I announced, placing the Field Spell on my Duel Disk. The place around us turned into a underwater ocean and we were into a gigantic bubble.
"With this card, all Water monsters gain 200 ATK and DEF, and all the Wayer monster on my hand and field have their Level reduced by 1 !"
Kashitara Ogre
Water/Psychic – Level 7 (now Level 6)
[ATK 2.800/DEF 1.000] → [ATK 3.000/DEF 1.200]
Ice Knight
Water/Aqua – Level 4 (now Level 3)
[ATK 1.700/DEF 1.200] → [ATK 1.900/DEF 1.400]
"Now, using Ice Knight's effect, I can perform an additional Normal Summon of a water monster. I decide to summon Ocean Dragon Lord – Kairyu-Shin in Attack Position !"
A massive serpentine dragon with glowing scales emerged from the card on the field and roared. It was gigantic. Easily twice the size of a football stadium
(real football ⚽ not Rugby 🏉)
Ocean Dragon Lord – Kairyu-Shin
Water/Sea Serpent – Level 5 (now Level 4)
[ATK 2.000/DEF 1.700] → [ATK 2.200/DEF 1.900]
Tori stared wide-eyed "That's… incredible. It looks like something straight out of a myth !"
Bronk whistled "Yuma, I hope you've got a miracle in your hand because this field is terrifying."
Yuma gulped, his confidence faltering slightly "I-I can still turn this around !"
"Let's find out." I said with a smirk "Ice Knight, attack his face-down monster !"
Ice Knight dashed across the field, slashing Yuma's face-down card. It flipped up to reveal Ganbara Knight. A knight with two shield as arms.
Ganbara Knight
Light/Warrior - Level 4
[ATK 0/DEF 1.800]
Since it had 100 DEF less than Icy knight's ATK, it was destroyed and sent to the graveyard.
"Now, Kairyu-Shin, attack Yuma's Life points directly !" The serpent let out another roar before surging forward, unleashing a torrent of water that crashed into Yuma.
[Yuma : 5.000 LP → 2.800 LP]
"And let's end this duel. Kashitara Ogre, finish him off !"
The towering psychic warrior jumped into the air, bringing its massive weapon down with a powerful strike. Yuma shielded himself as the blast hit.
[Yuma : 2.800 LP → 0 LP]
As the holograms faded, Yuma scratched the back of his head with a grin "Shenlong. Your cards are so cool !"
Bronk walked up, giving him a reassuring pat on the back "Shenlong's deck is nuts. I harldy think you could've done anything about it."
"And i didn't use my XYZ or fusion cards nor used my Kairyu-shin effect to add some magic card to my hand that could help me be completely safe in case anything would've happened." I explained.
Yuma looked me with wide eyes after my words "Let's duel again !"
I sighed, and for following hours we dueled 24 times until he managed to make my LP below 2.000 LP
But each time i destroyed him with either Kairyu-shin, Gogiga gagagigo or other cards.
Exhausted but smiling, Yuma fall onto the grass "Man, I thought I had you that time. Your deck is way too strong."
Tori rolled her eyes "That's enough dueling for today. If you guys keep going, Yuma will collapse before he even gets to Shark's duel."
I stretched "She's right. Let's call it a day. You've improved a lot, but there's still room to grow. Take what you've learned today and think about how to handle Shark. His playstyle is different from mine, but the basics we worked on will help."
Yuma nodded, determined. "Tomorrow, I'll be even better. Shark won't know what hit him !"
Me Tori and Bronk laughed and we all went to our homes.
[What did you think of this duel ? I tried to make it better by doing a description of the monster, and more dialogues.
Also i found a way for me to duel myself by using EDOpro on my phone and PC so now i can duel myself and make better Duel.
(It's a free simulator with every cards even from the anime, Rush duel, Speed duel, Manga, and some that come from video games).]
