Short Summary

 * The game is further introduced.
 * Yutoku manages to collect an amount of money through a disonest scheme and uses it to set a huge duel against another rookie, Dark Spark, in an attempt to double that money.
 * "Silence" gathers the Winner Five for the first time.

Yutoku "The Rookie" Abe vs. Junji "Dark Spark" Tsukasa
This Duel is conducted inside Nexus using the Friction rules.

Since Junji makes the first corner ahead of Yutoku, he earns the King of Speed bonus for the circuit until the next lap. This bonus makes it so that, when Junji Summons a monster or activates a Summoning effect, that Summon/effect cannot be negated.

Turn 1: Junji

 * Normal Summons "Foul Fire-Fly".
 * Activates the effect of "Foul Fire-Fly", tributing "Foul Fire Freak" from his hand to Ritual Summon "Foul Fire Factory" in Defense Position.
 * The effect of "Foul Fire Freak" lets Junji add an unspecified Level 3 monster to his hand (Yutoku's LP: 8000 → 7700).
 * The effect of "Ascending Soul" lets Junji add "Foul Fire Freak" back to his hand.
 * Junji activates the effect of "Foul Fire Factory" once (Yutoku's LP: 7700 → 7600).
 * Sets 1 card.
 * Yutoku attempts to collect a bonus, but Junji activates the effect of "Foul Fire Factory" a second time, disrupting Yutoku and getting the bonus himself (Yutoku's LP: 7600 → 7500) (Junji's Bonus: +20 points).

 * [...]

[Junji's hand: 3] (at this point: "Freak", the Level 2 "Foul Fire Familiar", and 1 more card; on field, the 5 monsters, "Flammable Area" and "Ascending Soul") [Yutoku's hand: 2] (at this point: 1 "Goblin" card and 1 more card; on field, only "Robin"; note that there's 1 unknown discarded Spell in the GY)

Possible ideas:
 * Yutoku gives Junji a lame monster with heavy drawbacks if destroyed.
 * Yutoku gives Junji a "Nimble Momonga"-esque monster.
 * Junji had used another great card as well and now that's on top of his GY; Yutoku uses "Sneezy" to take that card.
 * Robin's effect is Quick; Junji Summons his "Fantasm" (strongest monster) and Yutoku steals it.

Turn 7: Junji


 * [...] (Junji Summons "Foul Fire Fantasm")

Turn 8: Yutoku


 * Draws "Goblin Thief".

The Duel is interrupted as this point by Yutoku's intentional crash.
