• Yami Marik Sets 1 card then Normal Summons "Drillago" in Attack Position (1600 ATK / 1100 DEF). "Drillago" attacks "Goblin Zombie". Yami Bakura activates "Fearful Earthbound", but Yami Marik activates Magic Card "Remove Trap" (illegal move) to destroy it. "Drillago" destroys "Goblin Zombie" (Yami Bakura: 4000 → 3500 Life Points).

• Yami Bakura Sets 2 cards and Normal Summons "Gernia" in Defense Position (1300 ATK / 1200 DEF).

[edit] Yami Marik's Turn

• Yami Marik activates Magic Card "Card of Sanctity" to make both duelists draw until they have 6 cards in their hand (NOTE: The real-life version of the card has a slightly different effect).
• Yami Bakura activates Trap Card "Multiple Destruction". It forces both duelists to discard their hand then draw 5 cards. Yami Bakura loses 100 Life Points for each discarded by its Card effect (Yami Bakura: 3500 → 2900 Life Points).
• Yami Marik Sets 1 card.

[edit] Yami Bakura's Turn

• Yami Bakura tributes "Gernia" to Tribute Summon "Puppet Master" in Attack Position (0 ATK / 0 DEF). He then activates its effect. He pays 1000 Life Points (Yami Bakura: 2900 → 1900 Life Points) to Special Summon "Headless Knight" (1450 ATK / 1700 DEF), "Goblin Zombie", and "The Earl of Demise" (2000 ATK / 700 DEF) from his Graveyard in Attack Position. However, they cannot attack. Yami Bakura activates Magic Card "Dark Designator" to add "The Winged Dragon of Ra" from Yami Marik's Deck to his hand. He then activates Magic Card "Exchange" to take "The Winged Dragon of Ra" from Yami Marik while Yami Marik takes Magic Card "Monster Reborn".
