The final round begins and it's Team Wonderbolt vs Team Dominator. The first duel is between Gilda and Starlight.

Featured Duel: Gilda vs. Starlight Glimmer
 Turn 1: Gilda 

Gilda draws. She then Normal Summons "Birdface" (1600/1600) in Defense Position. She then Sets a card.

 Turn 2: Starlight

Starlight draws. She then Normal Summons "Celestial Spirit Libra" (900/900) in Attack Position. Since "Libra" is in Attack Position, its effect transfers its DEF to its ATK ("Libra": 900 → 1800/900 → 0). "Libra" attacks and destroys "Birdface". Since "Birdface" was destroyed by battle, its effect activates, allowing Gilda to add "Harpie Lady Commander" from her Deck to her hand. She then Sets a card.

 Turn 3: Gilda 

Gilda draws. She then activates "Harpie Maiden" (Left 2) and "Harpie Lady Commander" (Right 8) in her Pendulum Zones. She then Pendulum Summons "Cyber Harpie Lady" (1800/1300), "Harpie Channeler" (1400/1300) and "Harpie Lady Phoenix" (1500/1200) from her hand in Attack Position. She then overlays "Cyber Harpie Lady" and "Harpie Channeler" to Xyz Summon "Harpie Lady Zephyr" (2100/2300) in Attack Position. She then activates its effect to detach an Overlay Unit, revive "Birdface" (1600/1600) in Defense Position and increase the ATK of "Zephyr" by half the ATK of "Birdface" ("Zephyr": 2100 → 2900/2300). Starlight finds and activates the Action Card "Defender Current" to prevent herself from taking effect damage. She then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Commander" to grant "Zephyr" one attack for every other Winged Beast-Type monster she controls. She controls two others, so it can attack twice. "Zephyr" attacks and destroys "Libra" (Starlight 4000 → 2900). "Zephyr" attacks Starlight directly, but Starlight activates her face-down "Celestial Ursa Minor" to Special Summon four "Ursa Minor Tokens" (0/0 each) in Defense Position. A replay occurs and "Zephyr" attacks and destroys a "Ursa Minor Token". She then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Harpie Maiden" to Tribute "Phoenix" and draw one card for every 600 ATK "Phoenix had, meaning two.

 Turn 4: Starlight 

Starlight draws. She then activates "Painful Choice" to choose five cards from her Deck and force Gilda to choose one of them to add to Starlight's hand while the rest are sent to the Graveyard. She choose "Celestial Spirit Leo", "Celestial Spirit Virgo", "Celestial Spitit Taurus", "Celestial Spirit Pisces" and "Celestial Spirit Cancer". Gilda chooses "Cancer". She then activates "Celestial Ursa Major" to Tribute her three "Ursa Minor Tokens" in order to Special Summon an "Ursa Major Token" (?/?) in Attack Position and increase its ATK and DEF by the number of "Ursa Minor Tokens" Tributed ("Ursa Major Token": ? → 2400/? → 2400). She then Normal Summons "Cancer" (600/1600) in Attack Position. She then activates "Reverse Polarity" to swap the ATK of "Cancer" and "Zephyr" ("Cancer": 600 → 2100/1600; "Zephyr": 2100 → 600/2300). "Ursa Major Token" attacks "Zephyr", but Gilda finds and activates the Action Card "Magic Storm" to pay 300 LP (Gilda 4000 → 3700), look at the top three cards of her Deck and activate a Spell Card among them. She activates "Blustering Winds" to increase the ATK of "Zephyr" by 1000 ("Zephyr": 600 → 1600/2300). The "Ursa Major Token" then destroys "Zephyr" (Gilda 3700 → 2900). "Cancer" attacks and destroys "Birdface". The effect of "Birdface" activates, allowing Gilda to add "Harpie's Pet Dragon" from her Deck to her hand. She then Sets two cards.

 Turn 5: Gilda 

Gilda draws. She then Pendulum Summons "Cyber Harpie Lady" (1800/1300), "Phoenix" (1500/1200) and "Zephyr" (2100/2300) from her Extra Deck and "Harpie's Pet Dragon" (2000/2500) from her hand in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Harpie's Pet Dragon", it gains 300 ATK for every "Harpie Lady" on the field. There are currently three ("Harpie's Pet Dragon": 2000 → 2900/2500). Since "Phoenix" was Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, its effect activates, increasing "Zephyr's" ATK by 300 for every other "Harpie Lady" on the field ("Zephyr": 2100 → 2700/2300). "Zephyr" attacks "Cancer", but Starlight finds and activates the Action Card "Evasion" to negate the attack. "Cyber Harpie Lady" attacks and destroys "Cancer", with the effect of "Cancer" halving the Battle Damage (Starlight 2900 → 2300). Starlight activates her face-down "Starburst Draw" to draw three cards. "Harpie's Pet Dragon" attacks and destroys the "Ursa Major Token" (Starlight 2300 → 1800). Starlight activates her face-down "Starlight Beacon" to Special Summon "Celestial Spirit Scorpio" (1800/600) from her Deck in Attack Position.

 Turn 6: Starlight 

Starlight draws. She then activates "Magical Mallet" to shuffle all of the cards in her hand into her Deck and draw the same amount of cards. She then activates "Dark Hole" to destroy all monsters on the field. She then activates "Celestial Device Sextans" to revive "Leo" (2500/2200) in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Leo", it gains 200 ATK for every "Celestial Spirit" monster in the Graveyard ("Leo": 2500 → 3700/2200). She then activates its second effect to look at the top five cards of her Deck and send any "Celestial Spirits" among them to the Graveyard. She sends all five ("Leo": 3700 → 4700/2200). "Leo" attacks directly, but Gilda activates her face-down "Hysteric Party" to revive her two "Cyber Harpies" (1800/1300) and "Harpie Channeller" (1400/1300) in Defense Position. A replay occurs and "Leo" attacks and destroys a "Cyber Harpie". She then finds and activates the Action Card "Griffon's Greed" to draw two cards. She then activates "The Dark Door". Now both players can only attack with one monster.

 Turn 7: Gilda 

Gilda draws. She then Pendulum Summons "Zephyr" (2100/2300) and "Phoenix" (1500/1200) from her Extra Deck in Attack Position. The effect of "Phoenix" activates ("Zephyr": 2100 → 3000/2300). Starlight activates her face-down "Spell Converter" to shuffle all Spells and Traps Gilda controls into her Deck and allow Starlight to draw two cards. She then activates "Rank-Up Magic Futious Storm" to Rank-Up "Zephyr" and perform a Rank-Up Xyz Evolution, overlaying it to Xyz Summon "Harpie Lady Zephyr Blitz" (2800/2400) in Attack Position. She then activates the effect of the "Furious Storm" in her Graveyard, banishing it to reduce the ATK of "Leo" by the Rank of "Zephyr Blitz" until the End Phase ("Leo": 4700 → 2200/2200). "Zephyr Blitz" attacks and destroys "Leo" (Starlight 1800 → 1200). Since "Zephyr Blitz" destroyed a monster by battle, its effect activates, inflicting 500 damage to Starlight for every Overlay Unit "Zephyr Blitz" has (Starlight 1200 → 700).

 Turn 8: Starlight 

Starlight draws. She then activates "Monster Reincarnation" to discard "Aries" and add "Celestial Spirit Draco Starlight" from her Graveyard to her hand. She then banishes all 12 monsters from her Graveyard in order to Special Summon "Draco Starlight" (4000/4000) in Attack Position. "Draco Starlight" attacks and destroys "Zephyr Blitz" (Gilda 2900 → 1700). Since "Draco Starlight" destroyed a monster by battle, its effect activates, inflicting 100 damage to Gilda for every banished "Celestial Spirit" monster (Gilda 1700 → 500).

<p style="text-align:center;"> Turn 9: Gilda 

<p style="text-align:center;">Gilda draws. She then activates "Harpie Griffon" (Left 3) and "Harpie Child" (Right 7) in her Pendulum Zones. She then Pendulum Summons "Zephyr Blitz" (2800/2400) from her Extra Deck in Attack Position. Since "Zephyr Blitz" was Pendulum Summoned, its effect activates, letting herself look at the top five cards of her Deck and attach any Winged Beast-Type monsters among them to "Zephyr Blitz" as Overlay Units. She doesn't find any. She then activates the Pendulum Effect of "Harpie Griffon" to destroy "Harpie Child", Rank-Up "Zephyr Blitz" and perform a Rank-Up Xyz Evolution, overlaying it to Xyz Summon "Harpie Lady Zephyr Majesty" (3300/3000) in Attack Position. She then activates its effect to detach an Overlay Unit, flip "The Dark Door" face-down and increase its ATK by 700 ("Zephyr Majesty": 3300 → 4000/3000). "Zephyr Majesty" attacks "Draco Starlight". Both monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. "Cyber Harpie Lady" attacks Starlight directly (Starlight 700 → 0).
