When Cards Collide
By Ryoga
 

41: Brimstone
Edit 1: Corrected Mathematics

 

Last Solution:

Please remember that all cards are removed from play until Banisher of Light is destroyed at the end of Step 8.

  1. Remove Magician of Faith and Skilled Dark Magician from play to Special Summon Chaos Emperor Dragon.
  2. Activate Primal Seed to return Magician of Faith and Skilled Dark Magician to your hand.
  3. Normal Summon Skilled Dark Magician.
  4. Discard Dark Magician to activate Tribute to the Doomed to destroy a Blue-Eyes White Dragon
  5. Activate Primal Seed to return Primal Seed and Tribute to the Doomed to your hand.
  6. Activate Primal Seed to return Primal Seed and Dark Magician to your hand.
  7. Repeat Steps 4 through 6 twice to destroy all of your opponent’s monsters.
  8. Discard Magician of Faith to activate Tribute to the Doomed to destroy Banisher of Light.
  9. Tribute Skilled Dark Magician to activate his effect to Special Summon Dark Magician from your hand.
  10. Remove Banisher of Light and Skilled Dark Magician from play to Special Summon Black Luster Soldier.
  11. Activate Primal Seed to return Magician of Faith and Skilled Dark Magician to your hand.
  12. Attack directly with all monster you control to do 3000 + 3000 + 2500 = 8500 damage (his LP now 1500).
  13. Pay 1000 Life Points to activate the effect of Chaos Emperor Dragon to do 5 * 300 = 1500 damage.

Final Result: Him - 0, You – 1000

 

 

Problem – Win the Game in One Turn:

            This puzzle should hopefully have a few of you scratching your heads slightly more than usual. It’s my first attempt with the Phoenix. You lot always seem to like puzzles with big, expensive Ultras.

 

Field: (the upper part of the screen are your opponent’s cards)

 

 

Robin’ Goblin (face-up)

 

 

Kaiser Glider (face-up ATK)

Hoshiningen (face-up ATK0

Magician of Faith (face-down DEF)

Magician of Faith (face-down DEF)

Sinister Serpent (face-down DEF)

------------------

-------------------

------------------

------------------

-----------------

 

Mask of Darkness (face-down DEF)

Mataza the Zapper (face-up ATK)

Magician of Faith (face-down DEF)

 

Meteorain (face-down)

 

 

 

Premature Burial (face-down)

 

Your Hand: 
           
Mystical Space Typhoon, Double Spell, Makyura the Destructor, Monster Reincarnation

 

Your Life Points:                                1600  

Your Opponent’s Life Points:             9450

 

Your Deck Contains the Following Cards That You Can Obtain: 
           
Hand of Nepthys, Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys, Elephant Statue of Disaster, Elephant Statue of Disaster       

 

Your Graveyard Contains:
           
Dark Magician of Chaos, Ghost Knight of Jackal, Elephant Statue of Disaster, Heart of Clear Water, Mind Control, Last Will, Waboku, Light of Intervention, Begone, Knave!

 

Your Opponent’s Graveyard Contains: 
           
Last Will, Exchange, The Shallow Grave

 

If Magician of Faith’s effect is activated, your opponent will select, in order of preference, Last Will, The Shallow Grave, Exchange.

All cards are currently controlled by their respective owners.

If the effect of Kaiser Glider is activated, the monster on your side of the field with the highest ATK that has not yet attacked your opponent will be targeted.

If a random choice must be made, your answer must work regardless of which choice is made.

If you activate Exchange, your solution must work regardless of the card chosen by your opponent (but you must have one).  

PLEASE REMEMBER the Hoshiningen is face-up on the field. Kaiser Glider is therefore at ATK 2900 and Mataza at ATK 900, among other things.  

You start during your Main Phase 1 having done nothing this turn.  

PLEASE REMEMBER that the card you select with Double Spell is activated immediately. Unlike Magician of Faith, it does not add the card to your hand. Technically (for non-equip, non-continuous spells, and non-field), the card never leaves your opponent’s Graveyard.

 

I must admit I do like the Phoenix, the next card in Upper Deck’s series of cards that might kill BLS without banning it. Yeah, had anyone else noticed that Upper Deck is avoiding banning BLS and instead trying to make cards that are better than it? They seem to just want to replace one almighty cookie deck with another. Only time will tell with Phoenix is this card (I don’t think it is currently {21/7/5: Until D.D. Lady and Assailant go away, it won't be}).

However, having actually used the Phoenix for a few weeks, it does take an enormous amount of work to make it worth while. Do not just splash it into a Deck. You need a dedicated Phoenix Deck with support (anti-D.D.).

Also, I'm beginning to like Yu-Gi-Oh Online. I imagine I'll like it more when I get Pot, Graceful, Raigeki, two more Fissure, two more Trap Hole, some Gemini, and maybe a Chaser (21/7/5: I do), but I'm doing alright. BTW, anyone who wants the Right Leg of the Forbidden One (in the game) and can offer a decent card for it (Gemini!), get in contact.
