13-year-old Zachary Leverett and 11-year-old Chase Fulmer both play at the same local tournament in Georgia. Now, they’re the last 2 undefeated Duelists and they’re Dueling against one another for the chance to become Saturday’s YCS Dallas Dragon Duel Champion! Leverett is using a Dino Rabbit Deck, and Fulmer is playing Inzektors.

Leverett opened up with Mind Control, Kabazauls, Heavy Storm, Monster Reborn, Book of Moon and Forbidden Lance. He Normal Summoned Kabazauls and then Set Book of Moon and Forbidden Lance to his back row.

Fulmer started off with Inzektor Hopper, Gorz the Emissary of Darkness, Call of the Haunted, Solemn Warning, Mystical Space Typhoon, and Torrential Tribute in his hand. He Normal Summoned Inzektor Hopper and Leverett put it face-down with Book of Moon. Fulmer Set a card to his back row before passing.

Leverett drew Solemn Judgment and then activated Heavy Storm, destroying Fulmer’s Solemn Warning and Leverett’s own Forbidden Lance. Then he activated Mind Control to take control of Inzektor Hopper and Flip Summoned it. He combined it with Kabazauls to Summon Number 39: Utopia and then attacked directly with Utopia; but Fulmer Special Summoned Gorz the Emissary of Darkness along with a 2500 ATK Emissary of Darkness Token when he took the damage! Leverett Set Solemn Judgment before ending his turn.

Fulmer activated Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy Solemn Judgment and then attacked Number 39: Utopia with his Token. Leverett negated the attack with Utopia, and then Gorz attacked Utopia, and Utopia negated that attack too. Fulmer Set 2 cards to his back row before ending his turn.

Leverett drew Sangan next turn. He attacked Fulmer’s Emissary of Darkness Token with Utopia to destroy both monsters, and then Set Sangan.

Fulmer attacked the face-down Sangan with Gorz, sending it to the Graveyard and allowing Leverett to add a Rescue Rabbit from his Deck to his hand with Sangan’s effect.

Leverett drew Tour Guide From the Underworld next turn. He Normal Summoned it and activated its effect to Special Summon another Tour Guide from his Deck. When it hit the field, Fulmer activated Torrential Tribute to destroy both Tour Guides and his own Gorz. Next, Leverett activated Monster Reborn to try to Special Summon Gorz from Fulmer’s Graveyard; but Fulmer activated Call of the Haunted and Special Summoned the Gorz himself!

[This is a great use for Call of the Haunted. If you can Chain Call of the Haunted to an opponent’s Monster Reborn to Special Summon the monster they wanted to take, you’ll not only stop your opponent’s Monster Reborn, but you’ll also Summon a strong monster of your own to the field.]

Fulmer Normal Summoned Inzektor Centipede next turn and equipped it with Inzektor Sword – Zektkaliber. Centipede and Gorz attacked directly, dropping Leverett down to 2900 Life Points.

Leverett drew Mystical Space Typhoon next turn and used it to destroy Call of the Haunted and take down Gorz. Then he Summoned his last in-hand card, Rescue Rabbit, and banished it to Special Summon 2 copies of Kabazauls from his Deck. He combined them to make Evolzar Laggia and attacked Fulmer’s 2400 ATK Centipede, destroying both monsters

[Leverett had no Utopias left in his Extra Deck. Unfortunately for Leverett, that meant that his best play was to Summon a 2400 ATK Xyz Monster (Laggia) that could take down Centipede, but would be destroyed in the process.]

Fulmer Summoned Inzektor Centipede next turn and attacked directly with it. He Set a card to his back row before ending his turn.

Leverett drew and Set Mystical Space Typhoon.

Fulmer attacked directly with Inzektor Centipede, wiping out Leverett’s last 1300 Life Points!
