Yu-Gi-Oh PbP Exhibition:Mercenary Pen vs Strategos

[Strategos]

The elderly man is sitting on a bench in the park, idly feeding the pigeons as he reads through a book on alchemical concoctions. Noticing someone else around he looks up and smiles.

"Oh, hello there" He says, standing up and putting on his duel disc. "Would you care for a duel? I'm sure it will prove interesting."

[Strategos]

The duel disc lights up and shuffles the deck and he calmly draws his five cards. "I'm Professor Edgar Alderbeck by the way, pleased to make your acquaintence"

[Strategos]

"Not this time I'm afraid. Your summon of Dasher allows me to activate my Torrential Tribute trap, destroying my Valkyrie of the Nordic Ascendant as well as your two monsters. Do you have a response? Or an additional move you wish to play? Or may I take my turn?"

[Mercenary Pen]

"I have no moves just yet, but Dasher will return to trouble you later from beyond the grave."

[Strategos]

"Oh he very well might, but let's see how things go for now."

Draw: (1d32)[25]

"Maybe the resason my formula isn't working is because I haven't got my extra deck made correctly. In any case I shall begun by playing my Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your backrow card. Then I shall play Monster Reborn to bring your Dasher to my side of the field. Then I shall summon Valkyrie of the Nordic Ascendant from my hand. now, I'll tune them together to synchro summon Stardust Dragon, who will then attack directly for 2,500 damage. And I'll end my turn there, barring responses."

"I'll start by activating Miracle Fusion, banishing the Stratos and Tyrant Dragon in my grave to summon Elemental Hero Nova Master. Next I activate Burial from the different dimension to return Malicious, Stratos and Tyrant Dragon to my grave. With Stratos back in the grave, I activate monster reborn, bringing it to the field. I then discard Red Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon to activate my face-down Super Polymerisation, fusing Stratos with your Stardust Dragon to summon elemental hero great tornado. Entering the battle phase, Nova Master and Great Tornado attack you directly- I then activate Mask change from my hand, sending Nova Master to the graveyard to summon Masked Hero Goka who also attacks you directly to finish the duel."
(Total by my reckoning 8100 damage)

"Beaten yet again, I suppose it doesn't matter that I forgot to put Trishula in my Extra Deck."

((Good Game! Stardust vs an empty field looked so good that I didn't play my Swords when I should have. Oh well, I'll remember that for next time. As well as sorting out my extra deck yet again. Your deck looked good after you got Tyrant Dragon in the graveyard, perhaps running a copy of Lavalval Chain could help you get your graveyard set up? ))

[Mercenary Pen]

(OOC: I'd been hoping for a dragon I could summon so that I could get REDMD out and special summon Tyrant Dragon from hand that way- besides with regards to Lavalval chain, I'm rather lacking in extra deck space at the moment- because I could have easily used another ten to fifteen spaces in my extra deck without running short of ideas, for example Vision Hero Adoration, Vision Hero Trinity, Elemental Hero Escuridao, Elemental Hero the shining, Elemental Hero Gaia, Black Rose Dragon, Black Winged Dragon are all on the list of cards I wanted but had no room for.)
