Yu-Gi-Oh! Fourseasons

"Thank goodness I rode my bike here early this time, otherwise I would have been late again," You Dong said with a sigh as he locked his bicycle.

"Please invite contestants number seventeen and eighteen to the stage!" Under the referee's impassioned voice, You Dong and his opponent walked onto the stage.

You Dong thought to himself, "I've already broken into the top 32, and the reward is an old version of the [Destruction Wheel]. Even if I lose, it's not a complete loss..." Thinking this, You Dong pinched himself hard and cursed inwardly, "You Dong! How could you give up like this?! Is this all you've got?! Remember this! Your goal is always to be number one! How can you give up just because of a little bit of success?!"

……

The duel begins.

"Duel!" x2

Opponent: "First strike is mine. My turn."

"I activate the Spell Card [Fusion] from my hand, fusing [Firearms Animal Revolver White Cat] and [Firearms Animal Revolver Black Cat] from my hand! Fusion Summon! [Firearms Animal Cowboy Black and White Cat]!"

[Firearms Animal Revolver White Cat], Attribute: Wind, Level 4, Effect Monster, Beast-Warrior Type, Attack 1300, Defense 300.

[Firearms Animal Revolver Black Cat], Attribute: Earth, Level 3, Effect Monster, Beast-Warrior Type, Attack 1200, Defense 500.

Upon seeing the opponent's deck, You Dong muttered to himself, "[Firearms Animal] deck, the same as that teacher's deck."

"Next, I set a monster face down, and my turn ends."

The opponent has 0 cards in hand, 2 in front row, 0 in back row, 8000 Life Points, 3 in Graveyard, and 0 banished cards.

You Dong: "My turn, draw a card!"

Looking at the [Cowboy Black and White Cat] on the opponent's field, You Dong couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache: "A monster with 2600 attack power is not easy to deal with... Wait! I can use the same trick as before!" You Dong remembered the last time he dealt with this monster.

"I usually summon [Hibernating Serpent] (Defense Position)."

"I activate the effect of [Winter Synchron] in my hand, banish this monster, and Special Summon two [Winter Tokens] (Defense Position)."

"I'll upgrade the level 1 [Winter Token] and the level 4 [Hibernating Serpent]! Synchro Summon! Level 5! [Winter Ice Lance King]!"

"Advance to Battle Rank! [Ice Spear King] Attack the monster under its range!"

The monster that was covered up has been reversed—it's [the firearms-equipped animal, the landmine field mouse].

[Firearms Animal Mine Rat], Attribute: Earth, Level 4, Effect Monster, Beast, Attack 0, Defense 0.

Ice Spear King hurled his spear, destroying the [Landmine Rat].

The opponent activates the effect of [Landmine Rat]: "At this moment, the effect of [Landmine Rat] activates, and when this monster is destroyed, it inflicts 1000 damage to the opponent!"

"What?!" Because he hadn't played much with [Rapid Weapon Animal] decks before, You Dong suffered a huge loss.

"I cover a card and the turn ends."

Yu Dong has 3 card in hand, 2 in front row, 1 in back row, 7000 life points, 1 in graveyard, and 1 banished cards.

The opponent has 0 cards in hand, 1 in front row, 0 in back row, 8000 Life Points, 3 in Graveyard, and 0 banished cards.

Opponent's turn: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I usually summon [the firearms animal, the mine sardine]."

[Firearm Animal - Water Mine Sardine], Water attribute, Level 4, Effect Monster, Fish type, Attack 0, Defense 0.

"I activate the effect of [Water Mine Sardine], releasing this monster and inflicting 1000 damage to the opponent!"

You Dong felt a sharp pain in his left arm and cursed inwardly, "They have no sportsmanship! They've already dealt me ​​1000 damage before even entering the battle tier!"

The opponent enters the combat phase: "Advance to combat!"

"[Cowboy Black and White Cat] Attacks [Ice Gun King]!"

"[Ice King]'s effect activates, destroying your [Cowboy Black and White Cat] and reducing the damage taken in this battle to 0."

Yu Dong is unfamiliar with the [Hot Weapon Animal] deck, and similarly, his opponent is unfamiliar with the [Winter] deck.

Opponent: "Damn it! Round over."

Yu Dong has 3 card in hand, 1 in front row, 1 in back row, 6000 life points, 2 in graveyard, and 1 banished cards.

The opponent has 0 cards in hand, 0 in front row, 0 in back row, 8000 Life Points, 5 in Graveyard, and 0 banished cards.

You Dong: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I activate the Spell Card [Winter Lantern] from my hand and Special Summon [Ice Spear King] from my Graveyard."

"I'll upgrade the level 1 [Winter Token] and the level 5 [Ice Spear King]! Synchro Summon! Level 6! [Winter Axe Yeti]!"

"[Flying Axe Yeti] effect activated, dealing 1500 damage to you."

"Activate the second effect of [Flying Axe Yeti] to add one [Snowy Flying Axe] to your hand."

"I equipped the [Snowy Axe] to the [Axe-wielding Yeti], and the [Axe-wielding Yeti]'s attack power increased to 2600."

"I'm sending [Snowy Axe] to the graveyard, dealing 1500 damage to you!"

Seeing that he had slashed the opponent's base score by 3000, You Dong was quite pleased.

"Oh right, haven't I performed a normal summon this turn yet!" Yu Dong suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"I usually summon [Winter Kuriboh]."

"I'm adjusting the star rating of my level 2 [Kuriboh] and level 6 [Flying Axe Yeti]!"

"The dragon that slumbered beneath the ice has awakened! Let the glaciers return to the world! Synchro Summon! Level 8! [Winter Dragon]!"

"[Winter Dragon]'s effect is activated. This monster's ATK increases to 2900. Draw two cards."

"Advance to the combat tier!"

"[Winter Dragon] Attack directly!"

Zero Degree Strike!

[Winter Dragon] unleashed a breath of dragon fire, giving the opponent a severe lesson!

"I cover a card and the turn ends."

Yu Dong has 3 card in hand, 1 in front row, 2 in back row, 6000 life points, 5 in graveyard, and 1 banished cards.

The opponent has 0 cards in hand, 0 in front row, 0 in back row, 2100 Life Points, 5 in Graveyard, and 0 banished cards.

Opponent: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I banish all cards from my graveyard and Special Summon [Hot Weapon Animal Missile Dragon] from my hand!"

[Hot Weapon Animal Missile Dragon], Water attribute, Level 7, Effect Monster, Dragon type, Attack 2700, Defense 2500.

"When I activate the effect of [Missile Dragon], and this monster is Special Summoned, I draw one card."

"I activate the Spell Card [Skimmed Firearms] from my hand, and change the Fusion Material required to summon a Fusion [Firearms Animal] monster from my Extra Deck to one. Then I Fusion Summon that monster from my field or hand using the same Fusion Material, but I will take 2000 damage at the end of the turn."

"I will merge the [Missile Dragon] on the field into one!"

"O soaring dragon of the East, accept the power of hydrogen and shake the world with a roar! Fusion Summon! Level 10! [Thermal Weapon Animal Hydrogen Bomb Dragon]!"

[Thermal Weapon Animal Hydrogen Bomb Dragon], Attribute: Wind, Level 10, Effect/Fusion Monster, Dragon-Type, Attack 3200, Defense 0.

"[Missile Dragon]'s effect activates: When this monster is sent to the Graveyard as Fusion Material, add 1 [Firearms Animal] monster from the Graveyard to your hand. I add [Missile Dragon] itself to my hand."

"When the effect of [Hydrogen Bomb Dragon] is activated, and this monster is successfully summoned, add one [Firearms Animal] or [Firearms] Spell Card or Trap Card from your Deck to your hand."

"I added the Field Spell Card [Hot Weapons Animal Factory] to my hand."

"I activate the Field Spell Card [Firearms Animal Factory], and all [Firearms Animal] monsters on the field gain 500 ATK; and once per turn, I can Special Summon 1 [Firearms Animal] monster from my hand."

"I activate the effect of [Hot Weapons Animal Factory] to Special Summon [Missile Dragon] from my hand."

"[Missile Dragon]'s effect activates, draw one card."

As its attack power increased, the [Hydrogen Bomb Dragon]'s body swelled up, and the flammable and explosive materials inside were about to leak out!

Not to be outdone, the [Missile Dragon] did not grow to the size of the [Hydrogen Bomb Dragon], but it carried many more missiles on its back.

"Advance to the combat tier!"

"[Missile Dragon] Attack [Winter Dragon]!"

You Dong opens his face-down card: "I open my face-down card [Scrap Scarecrow] to negate this attack and put this card face-down back on the field."

"Then [Hydrogen Bomb Dragon] attacks [Winter Dragon]!"

"Whoa—" You Dong lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Opponent: "I set a card face down, end of turn. Because of the effect of [Cheap-made Firearms], I will take 2000 damage."

Yu Dong has 3 card in hand, 0 in front row, 2 in back row, 5200 life points, 6 in graveyard, and 1 banished cards.

The opponent has 0 cards in hand, 2 in front row, 1 in back row, 100 Life Points, 1 in Graveyard, and 5 banished cards.

You Dong: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I open the face-down card [Winter's Remains]. For each [Winter] monster in my Graveyard, inflict 100 damage to you. I draw two cards!"

The opponent calmly opened their face-down card: "I open my face-down card [Firearms Whip], and banish all cards in the opponent's graveyard when I have a [Firearms Animal] monster on my field."

"Damn it!" You Dong pulled out two cards and complained.

Suddenly, You Dong saw the card he had drawn and had a sudden inspiration.

"I activate the Field Spell Card [Ice Age] from my hand."

"I'll cover one card."

"I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Immediately], and activate the Trap Card [Winter Dragon's Comeback] that I just set to face down. When I have no monsters on my field, Special Summon a Dragon-Type [Winter] monster from my Graveyard or Banished Zone. That monster gains 500 ATK."

"Come back with renewed vigor, my Tamashi! [Winter Dragon]!"

"Because of the triple effects of [Winter Dragon] itself, [Winter Dragon's Comeback], and [Ice Age], [Winter Dragon]'s attack power increases to 3700, and I can also draw two cards!"

You Dong looked at the two cards he had drawn and smiled with satisfaction—because he had drawn the equipment magic card that was known to the world as the most overpowered card in the [Winter] deck!

"I activate the Equip Spell Card [Winter Revolver] from my hand and equip this card to [Winter Dragon]!"

"[Winter Revolver] effect activated: When this card is equipped to a monster, place 6 bullet counters on this card."

"I activate the effect of [Winter Revolver] once per turn, place a bullet counter on this card."

"The attack power of a monster equipped with [Winter Revolver] increases by 100 times the number of bullet counters on [Winter Revolver]!"

"That means the [Winter Dragon]'s attack power has increased to 4400!"

"Advance to Battle Rank! [Winter Dragon] Attacks [Missile Dragon]!"

Zero Degree Strike!

"I activate the effect of [Winter Revolver] to remove two bullet counters from this card, allowing the monster equipped with this card to attack again!"

"[Winter Dragon]'s attack power has dropped to 4200. Attack [Hydrogen Bomb Dragon]!"

Zero Degree Strike!

"[Winter Revolver] effect activated again! [Winter Dragon] attack power reduced to 4000, direct attack!"

Zero Degree Strike!

"Continue! Activate the effect of [Winter Revolver]. [Winter Dragon]'s attack power is reduced to 3800. Attack directly!"

Zero Degree Strike!

Four consecutive hits!

[Winter Dragon] used the effect of [Winter Revolver] to defeat the opponent in four consecutive attacks!

The referee announced the result: "Contestant number seventeen wins!"
