Turn 3: Sawatari
Sawatari draws "Pot of Greed", and subsequently activates it to draw two cards. Sawatari then Peddulum Summons the destroyed "Luster Dragon" (1900/1600) in attack position.

"Blade Armor Ninja" destroys "Exploder Dragon", but due to the second effect of "Exploder Dragon", Sawatari takes no Battle Damage. Since "Exploder Dragon" was destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, its first effect activates, destroying "Blade Armor Ninja".

Yuya's Turn
Yuya draws "Odd-Eyes Dragon". He Tributes "Hippo", which treats itself as two Tributes via its effect, to Tribute Summon "Odd-Eyes Dragon" (2500/2000) in attack position. Yuya activates "Wonder Balloons", which allows him to send cards from his hand to the Graveyard to place a counter on it. Yuya finds and sends three Action Cards (two "Evasions" and a "Miracle") to the Graveyard, placing three counters on it ("Wonder Balloons": 0 → 3 counters). Yuya activates the second effect of "Wonder Balloons", sending it to the Graveyard and targeting "Battleguard King" to decrease the latter's ATK by 1000 for each counter "Wonder Balloons" had until the End Phase ("Battleguard King": 3000 → 0/1100). "Odd-Eyes" attacks "Battleguard King", but the Sledgehammer activates the Action Card "Miracle", preventing the destruction of "Battleguard King" and halving the battle damage (The Sledgehammer: 4000 → 2750 LP). He then activates his face-down "Battleguard Rage" as he took battle damage, targeting "Battleguard King" to increase its ATK by 2000 ("Battleguard King": 0 → 2000/1100). At the End Phase, the effect of "Wonder Balloons" expires ("Battleguard King": 2000 → 5000/1100).
The Sledgehammer's Turn
"Battleguard King" attacks "Odd-Eyes Dragon". At this point Leo fells from the platform, as Yuya orders Odd-Eyes to save him which was successful but the attack of "Battleguard King" destroys "Odd-Eyes" (Yuya: 2900 → 400 LP). Due to the effect of "Battleguard Rage", "Odd-Eyes Dragon" returns to Yuya's hand instead of going to the Graveyard. The Sledgehammer then activates "Battleguard Magic", increasing his LP by an amount equal to half the ATK of a monster returned to the hand (The Sledgehammer: 2750 → 4000 LP). The Sledgehammer Sets a card.
Yuya's Turn
Yuya's hand contains "Odd-Eyes Dragon", "Stargazer Magician", "Performpal Sword Fish" and "Performapal Whip Snake". Yuya draws "Timegazer Magician".
At this point, Yuya's pendant transforms "Stargazer Magician" and "Timegazer Magician" into Pendulum Monsters and transforms "Odd-Eyes Dragon" into "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon".
Yuya activates "Timegazer Magician" ( 1) and "Stargazer Magician" ( 8) in his Pendulum Zones. Yuya Pendulum Summons "Performapal Whip Snake" (1700/900), "Performapal Sword Fish" (600/600) and "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" (2500/2000) from his hand, all in Attack Position.
Yuya activates the effect of "Performapal Whip Snake", switching the ATK and DEF of "Battleguard King" until the End Phase ("Battleguard King": 5000 → 1100/1100 → 5000). He then activates the effect of "Performapal Sword Fish", letting him target and reduce the ATK of a monster his opponent controls by 600 ("Battleguard King" 1100 → 500/5000). "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" attacks "Battleguard King", but the Sledgehammer activates his face-down "Battleguard Howling" as a "Battleguard" monster he controls is being attacked. This would let him target and return the attacking monster to the hand and inflict damage to his opponent equal to that monster's ATK. Yuya activates the Pendulum Effect of "Timegazer Magician" as a Trap Card] that targets exactly 1 Pendulum Monster he controls was activated. This negates the activation and re-Sets the card.
The Sledgehammer finds and activates the Action Card "Evasion", which would negate the attack. Yuya activates the Pendulum Effect of "Stargazer Magician" as a Spell Card that targets exactly 1 Pendulum Monster he controls was activated. This negates the effect and Sets the card, while preventing its activation for the remainder of this turn. The attack continues and Yuya activates the effect of "Pendulum Dragon", doubling the battle damage as it is battling a Level 5 or higher monster. "Battleguard King" is destroyed (The Sledgehammer: 4000 → 0 LP).

Now all "Ancient Gear" monsters will gain 300 ATK while "Ancient Gear Castle" will gain 1 Counter whenever Leo Normal Summons or Sets a monster.

He then tunes his Level 4 Tuner monster "Ancient Gear Solider", with his two Level 2 "Ancient Gear"s to Synchro Summon "Ancient Gear Samurai" (2800 → 3100/2000) in attack position.
Since "Ancient Gear Samurai" was Synchro Summoned it's effect activates allowing both players Special Summon a monster form their decks as long as their levels are four or bellow.

Since "Big Benkei" was tribute summoned its effect activates changing battle position. As per effect of "Big Benkei" while in defense position it can attack it's DEF. "Big Benkei" attacks "Ancient Gear Samurai" but Leo activates his face-down "Doble Passe" to make the attack a direct attack (Leo 4000 → 500) and allow "Ancient Gear Solider" to attack directly afterwards as "Ancient Gear Samurai" is unaffected by trap cards. "Ancient Gear Soldier" then attacks directly. (Gong 4000 → 2400)

Leo then activates "Polymerization" to fuse the "Ancient Gear Golem" in his hand along with the "Blade Armor Ninja" on his field to Fusion Summon, "Ancient Gear Warrior" (0/0) in attack position. Since "Ancient Gear Warrior" was Fusion Summoned half of its Fusion Materials are added to it's ATK, and DEF. (0 → 1500 → 2600/0 → 1100 → 2600).

(2600 → 5200/2600) Gong activates the effect of "Superheavy Samurai Soulfire Suit" in his hand discarding it to prevent "Big Benkei" from being destroyed by battle this turn.
Leo activates his face-down "Stop Defense" to switch "Big Benkei" to attack position. "Ancient Gear Warrior" attacks "Big Benkei" but the effect of "Soulfire Suit" prevents it from being destroyed by battle. (Gong 2600 → 0)

That monster's effects will be negated and it will be unable to attack directly, but its name and ATK will become the same as that of "Cipher Dragon". He targets "Ancient Gear Wyvern" (1600 → 3000). Kite activates the Continuous Spell Card "Cipher Interference". "Cipher Dragon", attacks "Hip Hippo".
Kite activates the effect of "Cipher Interference" as he controls two or more "Cipher" monsters with the same name and 1 is battling.

Kite finds, and activates the Action Spell, "Battle Lock" to end the battle phase, but Leo activates the Pendulum Effect of "Ancient Gear Shield" as a Spell Card was activated. This negates the activation and destroys it.
Kite finds the Action Spell, "Blinding Blizzard". He intends to activate "Blinding Blizzard" to end the battle phase, then attack with "Neo Cipher Dragon" to do a Double KO, then attack directly with "Cipher Dragon" to win the duel. Leo activates the Pendulum Effect of "Ancient Gear Sword" as Kite plans to play a spell card before he can attack. This allows Leo to inflict half of "Cipher Dragon's" ATK to Kite as damage in case he does play the spell.
At this point Leo attempted to attack but was knocked out from behind by Yami Bakura who told Kite to follow him do the duel ended without an outcome.
