Battle City Begins
Domino City: Morning…
Fireworks were going off as the city was swarming with the best duelists, those with the rarest cards, or both. Today, Battle City would kick off, and everyone with a duel disk were being watched by the masses.
This included duelists who simply couldn’t get into the tournament on either stipulation, non-duelists who simply loved watching duels, and even those somehow unaware of this rapidly growing game. It led to a palatable sense of anticipation.
“Bob, is that a new fashion trend?”
“Yes Dan. They’re giant wrist watches which are very hot right now.”
Two duelists approached them.
“Look, they’re called duel disk.”
“Duel disk, huh?”
“It’s all part of the Battle City Tournament. The greatest duel monsters tournament of all time.”
“So, folks like you should step aside since the duelists are taking over this town.”
Center of Domino City
Yugi, Sunset, and Joey had agreed to meet up before going their separate ways to collect locator cards. Given this round of the tournament would only last today, they needed six locator cards, and it took two days to earn thirty-star chips, it was seen as a necessity.
Especially since they all wanted to make it to the next round. Granted, they didn’t know much beyond the fact that the booklet said any one duelist must collect six locator cards, among the new rules for a duel, but that was enough.
“Man, there are duelists all across the city.” Joey commented.
“I know.” Sunset nodded. “Shouldn’t be too hard to find our first opponents.”
“As today wears on, chances are it will become harder just like Duelist Kingdom.” Yugi reminded.
“I think they’re the three you told me about.” A female voice called out.
The trio turned to see Mektaveus who was wearing the same outfit he had in the later stages of Duelist Kingdom. He was accompanied by a slightly shorter female with less muscle, long raspberry red hair in a bun, and blue eyes.
She wore a navy-blue qipao dress, with gold trim and without sleeves, and a matching skirt. She also had on black tights with navy blue and gold boots. Like Mektaveus, she had a duel disk signifying she was in the tournament.
“Yeah, that’s them alright.” Mektaveus voiced as they reached the trio. “I just knew I’d see you guys here.”
“Hey Mektaveus, it’s good to see ya.” Joey greeted. “Who’s the girl?”
“This girl has a name, and it would happen to be Misty Armaldo.” The girl responded.
While it wasn’t truly in a professional sort of way, it certainly was compared to how Mektaveus carried himself.
“That’s my little sister for ya.” Mektaveus chuckled. “Out of everyone from back home, she’s the only one who could qualify with me.”
“That’s cool, how did she get in?” Sunset asked genuinely curious.
“Unfortunately, I was half a star too low to qualify on my skill alone, but my ace monster was sufficient.” Misty responded before her brother could.
“Don’t let the fact she didn’t qualify on skill make you think she’s not one heck of a duelist.” Mektaveus ruffled her hair which she did allow but it seemed like anyone else who tried might receive an earful. “Even after I got back from Duelist Kingdom, she could give me a true duel.”
“Thunder and I will keep that in mind then.” Arctic voiced as he and his brother joined the growing group.
“It makes sense you’d be here Arctic.” Yugi noted.
“Naturally.” Arctic shrugged. “I wouldn’t miss this for the world; however, a certain someone seems to think they were penalized for how they got on Duelist Kingdom in the first place.”
“It’s stand by it.” Thunder commented clearly a little steamed. “Even if I wasn’t intended to be there, I won my place off another in a fair duel. That’s at least three stars worthy, but I’m listed at half that in the database.”
“Wasn’t Duelist Kingdom his first tournament?” Sunset voiced.
“Thank you, Sunset.” Arctic shook his head with an amused smile.
“I’m still sticking with my theory.” Thunder retorted while turning his head.
“There is no reason to be down on yourself.” Mako had arrived throwing his arm over Thunder. “Instead, be joyous at the fact you had a card that saw you into this tournament. It is the opportunity of a life time.”
“Hey Mako.” Sunset smiled. “Yugi and I saw you back when Kaiba announced this.”
“But of course, Sunset Shimmer.” Mako declared. “I would not miss such a competition as this is another opportunity to make waves. Nothing shall withstand my denizens of the deep.”
“My guy’s impenetrable defense can withstand anything.” Mektaveus retorted.
“Mighty denizens of the deep or an impenetrable defense, it doesn’t matter when put up against the magic tricks of a true spellcaster.” Arctic joined in.
“If any of you happen to meet during the tournament, you can settle things.” Sunset voiced. “As things stand now, Yugi, Joey, and I are heading out in preparation for this to begin.”
“Yeah, you can can stick together if you want, but the three of us want the best odd of getting our needed locator cards.” Joey added.
“Considering it took us all two days of Duelist Kingdom’s first round to do it, you might want to think about doing the same.” Yugi finished.
The three of them then took off in separate directions officially spreading out across Domino City. The remaining four shared looks among themselves before deciding those three made a great deal of sense. They went their separate ways as well.
Domino City
“Greeting duelist.” It wasn’t long before Seto Kaiba appeared on a screen within a blimp large enough that you could see it anywhere within Domino City. “Welcome to Battle City. It’s time to put your dueling skills to the test. I hope none of you came looking for friendly competition.
Battle City will be all out war, but before we get started, I’m going to tell all of you just what you’re in for just in case you want to back out now. Let’s begin with my new duel disk. Everyone who successfully registered received one. With it you can duel anytime and anywhere.
Additionally, they contain a tracking chip which allows me to see every move you make. Next, let’s talk about the most important rule. The loser is required to fork over their rarest card to the winner. Of course, rare doesn’t mean entirely useful to every deck.
Alternatively, one may substitute their prize with a card from the loser’s graveyard at that time or from their extra deck should they have one. If you don’t have the guts to wager a card, then I suggest you forfeit now. Of course, anyone who wants it can challenge me at their own peril.
Every rule of my tournament is one I’ll have to adhere to as well. On that note, don’t get your hopes up since I intend on winning. Among you stand two duelist I can’t wait to defeat. Speaking of winning, only the 16 best will make it to the final round.
Said finals will be held at a hidden location. To find it, you’ll need six locator cards, and every one of you should have received one. That means you will need five more which will be won from your opponents. Bet however many you wish on any duel, but one is the minimum.
Once you have your six, stack them together, and my systems will register you as a finalist while handing out the location. Of course, all today lies between the start of the final round and now. In that time, most of you shall be eliminated.
Alright, everything I just said, and more, can be found in my tournament rule book. Just remember, only 1 can win this tournament and claim the title of the number 1 duelist in the entire world. Now, get ready for the tournament begins!”
Rooftop Playground
Yugi wandered into a rooftop playground where he had observed Seto’s message. “Time to face my destiny.”
He turned to leave only to stop as someone he’s heard about rushed into the area clearly out of breath. Wherever she came from, this person had moved quickly with the express intention of standing across from him now. It was Fluttershy.
Flashback: Canterlot High/Middle School Group
The nine duelists from Canterlot had met up in the lobby of their hotel to debrief the current situation. This essentially meant going over their plan to find Sunset. As the best duelist among them, AJ, Flash, and Rainbow took charge.
“The plan is simple.” Flash declared. “We’re immediately spreading out across Domino City with the intention of finding Sunset or any of those people she was with in hope they’ll help us find her.”
“Two of them we don’t really know the names of, but the others are Yugi Muto and Joey Wheeler.” AJ continued. “If you find them, see about getting their cooperation.”
“If the two people we know of refuse to talk, then they’re likely duelist in this tournament.” Rainbow took over. “Put that information on the line in an official duel. On that note, we should all work to earn our place in whatever the next round it.”
“It’s a precaution just in case none of us find Sunset.” Flash informed. “Whenever you find her, immediately send out a group text letting everyone know where she is. Then, you can talk to her as you like and attempt to keep her where you find her.”
“Be honest with your intentions.” AJ reminded. “We’re not out to trick Sunset here, and we must show we’re here on genuine terms.”
“Does everyone understand?” Rainbow asked.
The remaining six all nodded, so the whole group left the hotel breaking off from one another.
Rooftop Playground
“You’re Yugi Muto.” Fluttershy commented relieved she found him.
Yugi was typically the nicest guy you could ever meet, and it took a great deal for him not to be. Considering everything Sunset’s prior friends put her through, even with her past, that would certainly be enough.”
“That is my name.” Yugi stated firmly. “You fit the description of Fluttershy.”
“Sunset told you about us?” Fluttershy asked.
“She’s told my friends and I everything about her; where she was to how she ended up in our school.” Yugi shook his head. “Honestly, even knowing the full context, I can’t agree with anything your group did. Sure, Sunset was bad, and it went far.
Still, hearing her story leads me to believe taking it that far had little to do with why none of you believed her for a second. Before Sunset, two guys used to bully me daily with one of the worst acts being taking a piece of a puzzle my grandfather gave me.
A piece from a puzzle I’d spent eight years working to put together. Even with all that in mind, when a guy was beating them up because he thought I’d want that and could get money for it, I stepped in to defend them. I took a beating, but they then fought to defend me.
The one who threw my missing piece away worked to retrieve it, and they both made amends. From that day onward, we were friends. No matter what, from the second we became friends, I’ve never thought they’d do anything bad again. It’s for the simple fact that we are friends.”
Fluttershy had listened to Yugi’s story, and it made her ashamed of herself more than she already was. She didn’t doubt any of it for a second, so hearing how he treated those two told her a lot in how he’s been treating Sunset. Still, she already knew they messed up.
“We realized our mistakes, and it wasn’t due to us coming to such a realization ourselves.” Fluttershy looked up now with a truly guilty expression. “We only realize it wasn’t her after the true people behind Anon-a-Miss came forward. There’s a lot to make amends for.”
“The fact that you just admitted this was a realization you hadn’t made yourselves makes me doubt you.” Yugi voiced. “If you were truly Sunset’s friends, you’d have believed her. Instead, you needed the culprits to step forward.”
“We know.” Fluttershy voiced. “No matter how hard it might be, nine of us entered this tournament to make amends, but I can see now that asking for your help wouldn’t get it. So, I want to duel you for it. Among the prizes of this tournament, if I win, you must help us.”
“I’ll agree to your added stipulation in return for the names of the true culprits.” Yugi declared.
If he was going to do this, he might as well bring Sunset some resolution.
“I agree.” Fluttershy declared. “I would have told him anyways, but this makes the stakes fair.”
This pair’s conversation had drawn a crowd in the form of anyone else up here at this time. Given the tension, no one intended to miss this. Yugi’s puzzle glowed as Yami took over. His feelings on the matter were well in line with Yugi’s.
Domino City: Streets
Tristan was currently running along the streets. “Gah, I can’t believe I forgot to set my alarm.” He stopped at an intersection and looked around frantically. “I just felt so down that Sunset circumvented me like that to the point remembering it completely slipped my mind.”
Tristan wasn’t truly angry with Sunset, he was totally still supporting her alongside Yugi and Joey, but he was frustrated. The guy had wanted to be the one to look after Serenity. In the end, his current state lent itself well to making mistakes…like sleeping in today of all days.
Rooftop Playground
Both duelists activated their duel disk.
“Let’s Duel!”
(Yugi 4000/Fluttershy 4000)
Yugi drew. “To start off, I shall summon Berry Magician Girl(LV 1/400/400).” A baby female spellcaster in pink appeared. “When she’s normal summoned, I can add any magician girl I wish from my deck to my hand. I’ll then wrap up my turn by setting 1 card.”
“Alright, my move.” Fluttershy drew. “I’ll begin by following your lead with a spellcaster of my own. I call Skilled Brown Magician(LV 4/300/200).” A kid in a brown cloak appeared wielding a staff. “Then, I’ll activate the equip spell United We Stand.
This grants my Skilled Brown Magician(LV 4/1100/200 effect) 800 more ATK for every monster I control. It also initiates my monster’s effect granting him a spell counter which I can then remove one every turn to activate one of two effects.
I’ll utilize Skilled Brown Magician(LV 5/2600/200 effect)’s first effect increasing his level by 1 and ATK by 1500. This gives me a monster with more than enough power to take the lead. I’m sorry to your cute magician, but mine will destroy her.”
“You may very well still destroy my monster, but her second effect will activate first.” Yugi declared. “Since you targeted her with an attack, I change her battle position putting her in defense position.
Then, I can special summon any Magician Girl I wish from my deck. I choose Apple Magician Girl(LV 3/1200/800).” A female spellcaster in red appeared. “Now, you can redeclare your intended attack target.”
“If I attack Apple, her effect might be more potent than Berry’s to the point it could garner more advantage.” Fluttershy reasoned. “If I attack Berry, her effects are already used up, but that would leave him with a monster. Plus, all I’d be doing is attacking a defense position monster.”
Fluttershy wasn’t as in tuned to the dueling world as AJ or Rainbow were, but Sunset recently joining said world gave her an incentive to learn. In short, she could see why Yugi was currently seen as one of the best.
“I’ll just have to do my best.” Fluttershy pointed. “My Skilled Brown Magician will destroy your Berry Magician Girl. Then, I’ll set one card ending my turn.”
“Alright, my move!” Yugi drew. “I just drew into my Palladium Oracle Mahad(LV 7/2500/2100). When I do, I can simply reveal him to my opponent and special summon him to the field.” A spellcaster in white cloth and golden armor appeared.
“That is a strong effect; however, my Skilled Brown Magician is one hundred ATK too strong for your Mahad to overcome.” Fluttershy declared.
“That would be the case were your monster not of the Dark Attribute.” Yugi declared. “Before I get to that, I’ll normal summon my Obnoxious Celtic Guardian(LV 4/1400/1200).” An elf swordsman in dark green armor appeared. Now Mahad, destroy my opponent’s Magician. During the damage step, when he attacks a Dark attributed monster, his ATK doubles.”
Palladium Oracle Mahad(LV 7/5000/2100 effect) was cloaked in a heavenly light before he blasted Fluttershy’s magician destroying him (Yugi 4000/Fluttershy 1600). The light then faded from Palladium Oracle Mahad(LV 7/2500/2100)
“Your monster is powerful; however, I reveal my set Damage Vaccine Ω MAX.” Fluttershy countered. “Whenever I take battle or effect damage, this card grants me life points equal to the damage I took (Yugi 4000/Fluttershy 4000).”
“That might be, but you are now open to direct attacks from my Celtic Gurdian and Apple Magician Girl.” Celtic Guardian slashed at Fluttershy before Apple Magician Girl blasted her (Yugi 4000/Fluttershy 1400). “With that, I’ll end my turn. It’s your move.”
“Right.” Fluttershy drew. “I’ll simply summon my Winged Kuriboh(LV 1/300/200) in defense position.” A Kuriboh with wings appeared. “I’ll then set one card to bolter my defenses before ending my turn.”
“The Kuriboh archetype offers a lot in the way of effects among which is a powerful LV monster.” Yugi glanced at his face down. “If that is her intention, my face down will prevent me from losing.” He drew. “Apple Magician Girl will destroy Winged Kuriboh.”
“I activate my face down quick-play spell Transcendent Wings.” Fluttershy countered. “Now, I must send my Winged Kuriboh on the field to the grave along with two cards from my hand in order to special summon Winged Kuriboh LV 10(LV 10/300/200) from my deck.”
A Kuriboh with huge wings appeared. “That’s not all as he has an effect that activates when it’s your Battle Phase allowing me to tribute him and destroy every attack position monster you control. When they are destroyed, you take damage equal to their combined ATK!”
Winged Kuriboh LV 10 took in the blast leveled at him from Apple Magician Girl and fired it right back into every monster on Yugi’s field kicking up a massive amount of smoke from the destruction.
“That is the end.” Fluttershy declared.
“Not quite.” Yugi declared.
Fluttershy went wide eyed as the smoke cleared revealing Palladium Oracle Mahad was still standing (Yugi 1400/Fluttershy 1400).
“How is your Mahad still standing?” Fluttershy questioned stunned.
“It was thanks to the trap I set back on my first turn, Dimension Guardian.” Yugi informed. “It keeps the monster its attached to from being destroyed by battle or card effect. Since Mahad didn’t go to the grave for LV 10, he was kept from the ATK tally.”
“I have nothing further to play, so I end my turn.” Fluttershy had drawn. "I can't play this card, so ending my turn was all I could do.
“I can’t afford to take it easy since the Kuriboh archetype has no end of tricky effects.” Yugi drew. “I shall summon Artillery Catapult Turtle(LV 4/1000/2000).” An armored turtle with a catapult launcher on the back appeared. “Now, I’ll attack directly with Mahad.”
“I activate the graveyard effect of Rainbow Kuriboh(LV 1/300/200).” Fluttershy countered. “When you declare a direct attack, I can special summon this monster to my field, and I’ll do as such in defense.” A rainbow Kuriboh appeared to take the hit.
“Then, my Catapult Turtle will attack you.” Yugi continued.
“I activate the effect of Clear Kuriboh.” Fluttershy countered. “Since you’ve initiated a direct attack, I can banish him from my grave to draw 1 card. If the card drawn is a monster, I can special summon it.”
She took a deep breath and drew before smiling. “I just got Kuriboh(LV 1/300/200), and I’ll special summon him in defense position.” Kuriboh appeared taking the hit. “With no other monsters that can attack, I’ve weathered this turn.”
“Not quite.” Yugi declared. “I activate the quick-play spell Magical Dimension. Provided I control at least 1 Spellcaster, this spell allows me to tribute any 1 monster I control. Then, I can special summon any Spellcaster from my hand.
I’ll tribute my Catapult Turtle to bring out Dark Magician(LV 7/2500/2100).” The purple robbed spellcaster appeared on the field alongside Mahad. “Since that was a quick-play during Battle Phase, my newly summoned monster can still attack.”
“I-I don’t have anything else that can protect me.” Fluttershy realized.
“Dark Magician, end this with Dark Magic Attack!” Yugi declared.
Dark Magician blasted out his magic wiping away what remained of Fluttershy’s life points (Yugi 1400/Fluttershy 0). The Kuriboh user was stunned by the sheer difference in skill between them to the point she didn’t say a word as Yugi approached her.
“A deal is a deal.” Yugi stated. “Who was the culprit behind Anon-a-Miss?”
“I don’t know if Sunset told you about them, but it was Apple Bloom, Sweetie Bell, and Scootaloo.” Fluttershy was looking at the ground as she took out her locator card and Black Luster Soldier Envoy of the Beginning. “You also won these.”
Yugi accepted them before walking past her only to stop about a foot past her without looking back. “I can’t claim how Sunset will react to any of their presences, so if you still feel the need to find her, I won’t stop you. Per our agreement, I still will not help you achieve it.”
With his piece spoken, Yugi moved on leaving Fluttershy behind. This was a devastating loss. She had found one of the people currently connected to Sunset only to falter. It’s not like she wasn’t aware of the potential to lose given her opponent.
Even then, she had hoped that maybe her dueling so hard for this would have reached him. “Why would my dueling reach him when we ignored Sunset’s…”
No matter how hard she dueled, no true duelist would hear a thing from her dueling when they readily disregarded another’s. Despite the sting of defeat, Fluttershy couldn’t give up. She knew none of the others would.
“Even though I’m out of the tournament, that doesn’t mean I can’t still try to find Sunset.” Fluttershy thought firmly as she now left the area.

Fluttershy got stomped, hard... Feels bad man, but also when did she get her hands on fucking BLS?
Also, she plays Kuribohs. Why am I entirely not surprised Fluttershy's deck would be 90% cute cards?
Got an idea on how to introduce Circadian as well when Penumbra shows up.
wow. Yugi faced one of Sunset's old friends. things are getting heated up.
11731295
Yeah, Fluttershy gave it her best shot. She got that BLS Between the time where the gang initially decided to start improving for the tournament after Duelist Kingdom and now. It's quite the fitting card since her deck is all Dark and Light Attributed monsters.
I thought the deck was fitting since I couldn't really give her the Beast-type deck. I had already decided and given that to Mokuba.
As for your idea, pm me and we'll talk about it.
11731299
Yep
11731304
also i like how you introed Misty. its very her to do so.
11731309
Just realized and now corrected that she is an OC that belongs to you. Sorry, this has happened before where I'm just excited to get the chapter out. Now, I'm glad you liked her introduction.
Man...Fluttershy had poor luck having to face Yugi of all people for the first duel. Well, at least we now know where Yugi gets BLS Envoy of the Beginning now. A powerful card for him to use.
But I do agree on the interaction between Yugi and Fluttershy. He doesn't view the Rainbooms having been true friends as they did not believe Sunset nor come to the realization themselves. But then again, it is Sunset's decision if she chooses to forgive them or not. It is a steep, uphill battle, but the girls and Flash will keep trying.
Looking forward to the rest of the battles though. I'm curious who else the Rainbooms, CMC, and Flash will duel. I'm thinking among them will be Joey, Kaiba, Mektaveus, Arctic, Rob, Penumbra, Thunder, Shining Armor, Mako, Rare Hunters...yeah, it's a long list of people.
I feel like the Rainbooms, CMC, and Flash won't be successful in their attempts during Battle City...but that might change in the Yugioh R arc. We'll see.
11731295
She probably opened a lot of packs and got lucky. Aside from Kuribohs, other decks I can see her use are Melffy and Purrely, both are cute archetypes as well.
11731311
its all good.
This was a great start to battle city tournament! Introducing new characters and old, plus our CHS students plan to find Sunset Shimmer to try and make amends for it.
Speaking of Yugi Vs Fluttershy I really like, because Yugi relating to Sunset because of his own bullying from Joey and Tristen, and that The Main 5 should’ve believed Sunset more rather than waiting it out.
23 Duels before Top 16, and like it was mentioned we can pinpoint on WHO the top 16 will be base on who wins the next few duels (well, of course with a few exceptions with some of the obvious ones being automatic slots for it
11731319
She gave it her best, but Yugi came out on top. I figured I might as well throw in something like that with Envoy of the Beginning.
If Sunset does or does not decide to forgive them, Yugi will be fine with whatever she decides. The key thing is that it must be her decision.
As for who the rest from Canterlot will duel? It will come eventually.
And now it begins. Time to get popcorn!
11731324
Obviously, I didn't want to front load it, but there are many more people here than have simply been shown off. The CHS crew are here attempting to pinpoint Sunset.
Honestly, the appeal of putting Sunset in Duel Monsters does have a lot going for it depending on when you take Sunset from Canterlot High. At this point in time, Sunset can relate to Yugi, Tristan, and Joey. With Tea, it finally gives her a friend that's a girl to hang with like the first half of season 5 had her complaining about.
Yeah, I'm not even about to try and fool people as unless there is a good reason for it, it's usually well-known main characters and villains aren't being taken out of a tournament in what is essentially the preliminary round.
11731327
Don't forget the drink.
11731330
Yeah, true that.
Also, did like how Yugi gotten himself some of the other magician girl cards (which honestly, wish we seen them all appearing in the movie rather then a select few
11731331
Heaven forbid that.
Man I wonder who else on the CHS well be eliminated probably rarity,apple and pinkie my guess.
Keep up the great work👍👍👍👍.
11731374
Thank you.
Yugi doesn't trust them completely after hearing about their behavior and although he wishes them luck they will have to earn his help. Fluttershy didn't manage to win despite the odds.
11731415
Pretty much.
What archetypes are still left vacant in your plans?
I'm really hoping out of the Canterlot group, Flash makes it to the Top 16. Mostly because I wanna see Destiny Heroes vs Elemental and Masked Heroes. But we'll have to wait and see.
But for how many spots the Top 16 might have...we got:
1) Yugi
2) Kaiba
3) Joey
4) Sunset
5) Marik
6) Odion
8) Ishizu
9) Mai
10) Bakura
11)
12)
13)
14)
15)
16)
11731487
Anything that has already been used is off the table; however, specifically speaking an archetype from a composite duelist is acceptable. For instance, back then none of them were archetypes, but today archetypes do exist for multiple components to Yugi's deck. A prime example of this would be Thunder who is a Buster Blader duelist.
Dark Magician itself is also off the table since that is tied specifically to Yugi more than any other card in his deck. Magician Girls on the other hand are something Arctic will use. This would leave things like a Gaia/Black Luster, Summoned Skull, Magnet Warrior, and so on. There's also the rule where no rival, main character, and certain friend decks are off the table.
Syrus and Chazz's archetypes(at this point it's only armed dragon that's vacant), are on the table to be taken. Basically, it's almost any other deck that's acceptable provided they do not utilize the extra deck zone or link monsters to an extent. Obviously if a later card simply mentions link monsters, that can be removed form an effect to an extent.
11731500
This comment specifically is simply to inform you that I aim to spoil nothing. It is essentially a comment to let you know I hear you, but this neither confirm nor denies you have the list right. I will say of course, as I have in a prior comment, that obviously I'm not going to have Yugi, Sunset, Joey, Marik, or Odion miss out on the Top 16. At the very least, heroes and villains should not falter in the preliminaries. I think that is something everyone can agree with unless there is purpose to either side loosing earlier than that.
Bottom line: I shall not ruin the fun.
11731506
I understand. I was just speculating given how many duelists there are and who might fill the slots. But I really did forget, but is Shining Armor also part of the tournament? I would assume he would qualify for it.
11731510
By all means, anyone is free to speculate, and I love to see it. As for the rest of the Top 16, it all comes down to who people face in this first day that will determine makes it onward.
11731512
Cool. By the way, for the Aesir God cards, will you be changing their text a bit so their summon materials are more generic? Because each one requires a specific type of Nordic tuner.
That being said...I'm excited to see how they played into the War of the Roses(I still feel like Black Rose Dragon had a major role in it)
11731523
We shall see.
Nice surprise of Yami using those Magician Girls, but still a combination with his old cards.
Sunset's old friends are up and about the city, but who will the lucky/unlucky to find Sunset first?
11731769
Figured they'd play well with Yugi's deck.
Nine people are about; however, Domino City is rather large. Only time will tell.
Uh...Yugi took two turns in a row at the end.
And I feel like we're getting a bit too many OCs lately. It's getting hard to keep track of them all and they're starting to swamp the MCs.
11731812
No, it just wasn't made clear, but Fluttershy had her turn. She merely ended up drawing a card like Kuribabalyon which is rather useless in this circumstance forcing her to end her turn. That brought it back to Yugi who proceeded to end the duel. I did correct it to make that a bit clearer,
As for the OC's, I hear you, but I think it's fine. If it makes you feel better, I think I'm done accepting OC's now until the next story comes along.
Oof. Fluttershy's already out? Damn.
11732201
Yep.
