Yu-Gi-Oh PbP: Strategos vs. Blue Ghost

[Blue Ghost]

The blue-robed wizard calmly walks into the arena. He smiles and waves at his opponent. Good day, friend. Some of my latest magical experiments still require testing. Would you be so kind as to assist me?

[Blue Ghost]

Mage hand.

The tall man with short cropped black hair smiles at the wizard, revealing two sharp fangs. "But of course! Me friend is out helping another of his friends and I was starting to get bored." He frowns as he inserts his deck into a gunmetal grey duel disk. "I don't like being bored."

"Not so fast there Blue, when your pair of elves attack me, it triggers me face-down Sakuretsu Armour, destroying them. Would this change your turn any? "

[Blue Ghost]

I counter your Sakuretsu Armor with Dark Bribe. My elves remain, and the attack hits. You may draw a card, but then you will discard one.

I Flip Summon Royal Magical Library. I activate Toon Table of Contents to flip to another of the same, then a third. I then activate the Level Limit - Area B, switching my Library back to Defense Position.
Three Spells have been cast with my Library on the field, meaning that it has accumulated three Spell Counters. I remove all of these to draw another card.
And I place the card drawn on the field: another Wave-Motion Cannon! With my two magical cannons on the field, you have but one turn remaining. Your move, sir.
