[Yu-Gi-Oh PbP Event] The Forbidden Gauntlet: Umbra

**Shadow_Elf** · 2011-07-23, 04:18 PM (ISO 8601)

The intruders pass through the vanished force field and emerge in a darker room. At the other end, Umbra stands before a second, similar forcefield. Your journeys stop here.

The silver-haired woman stepped into the darker room; for a moment, a bright light could be seen shining from a hunk of rock in her hand, before it faded, like the sun extinguished by the horizon. "... these Shards are dangerously unstable. Fragmentation of transport has not produced favourable outcomes." [i]Anything that could bring me so far from my destination to as dismal a location as here must be faulty, at the very least. Or so the figure said to itself, before turning to Umbra and speaking up.

"It is said that as there is the whole journey, neither by snow nor rain nor heat no darkness shall prevent a Messenger from accomplishing their appointed course with all speed. My journey shall not cease with you, for I have yet to deliver my Message. Therefore..."

((I don't think I could make her method of transport any clearer; her method of transport (the orb-like form she arrived in before) is what brought her here, and it's powered by the Shard. It isn't very efficient, though; it's taken her quite out of her way, it seems

))

Your message is immaterial, Messenger. Your path ends here, with my blades. Swords materialize out of thin air in his hands, and five motes of darkness emerge infront of him.

(1d35)[24]

Infernity Launcher allows me to send Infernity Avenger to the graveyard from my hand. I set a monster and a backrow; it is your turn, use it well.

The Messenger grins. "I don't mean to deep-six your Launcher, but..." The Snipe Hunter raises it's gun, and fired a singlle shot at the Launcher; it exploded, as a small, fiendish hound began skirting the feet of the Snipe Hunter. "Spell card activation: Instant Fusion. By paying a thousand life-points, I summon a Flame Ghost to the field. I then set two face-downs. Tuning: The Fabled Curburrel and Flame Ghost. Synchro Summon: Fabled Ragin! My hand is empty: his effect activates, letting me draw two cards."

The drow nods apprehensively. Perhaps you could... no, the notion is inconceivable. Glory, to the Forbidden King!

(1d34)[29]

I set a backrow card. I summon Infernity Beetle. I remove from play the Stygian Street Patrol in my graveyard to special summon Infernity Necromancer, in defense mode. I tribute my Beetle to summon two more from my deck; then I use Necromancer's effect to reclaim my Avenger. I tune for Armory Arm with Necromancer and Avenger. I tune for Iron Chain Dragon with Armory Arm and a Beetle. I tune for Stardust Dragon with Iron Chain Dragon and a Beetle. My Stardust Dragon will destroy Snipe Hunter and I shall end my turn, barring response.

[Note to self; Necromancer is level 3, and Stygian Sergeants needs a fiend tuner, not a fiend non-tuner

"Trap card activation: Mirror Force. Your attack is the petard you shall be hoisted upon; but, ah, Stardust Dragon can save itself from destruction. It shall be all too fleeting, however."

((I think I made the same mistake with my Infernity deck once or twice, haha.))

**Shadow_Elf** · 2011-07-26, 08:53 PM (ISO 8601)

Umbra furrows his brow. Next turn, you shall employ Snipe Hunter's effect; either it shall destroy my Dragon, or I shall tribute it to stop the attack. Either way, my field is left clear; your remaining monsters shall reduce my life meter to zero. A black hand appears, reaching for Umbra, who dodges out of the way. Exaross can see into my thoughts; defeat here is an inevitability. You may take your message further inside, Messenger. The hand reaches again, and Umbra dissolves in its grip; whether the shadowbender escaped or was destroyed by his master his unclear.

[I will cross-post the above in the IC thread, for continuity's sake.

Well played! Infernity decks, I think, like to have a turn or two to empty their hands and get things moving before they can go toe-to-toe with the foe. Your deck brought out the hurt on ASAP, and I just couldn't keep up; especially hard in a contest between Handless and Turbo, where the Turbo does get a nice fat advantage. I'm not all that interested in keeping the deck, so you don't need to give any advice (though I know you're an expert on Infernities.)]

**Allan Surgite** · 2011-07-26, 08:57 PM (ISO 8601)

((Basically!

Even though you said that you weren't keeping the deck, if you feel like picking the archetype back up, you might want to consider running 2x Infernity Inferno. It is an advantage-killer, yes, but the design of the card allows you to sacrifice advantage in exchange for building up your graveyard. Infernities are, at heart, built around the idea of a reverse toolbox.

When are you putting up the next challenge? Messenger's Hyper Fabled are, I think, going to be the first to tackle it... let's see how this goes XD;))
