Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V - Episode 145

"Endless Rebellion" is the one hundred and forty-fifth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime. It first aired in Japan on March 5, 2017.

Featured Duel: Yuya Sakaki vs. Shay Obsidian
At the start of the Duel, the Field Spell Card "Crossover" is activated, as per the rules of an Action Duel. It will allow the players to use Action Cards, but they may only have one in their hand at a time.

 Turn 1: Shay 

Shay Normal Summons Raidraptor - Rudder Strix (0/1600). Shay activates the effect of "Ruuder Strix", inflicting 300 damage to Yuya. Yuya finds and activates the Action card Acceleration. Shay finds and activates the Action card No Action, negating the effect of "Acceleration" and destroying it (Yuya: 4000 → 3700 LP). Shay sets a card.

 Turn 2: Yuya 

Yuya activates Performapal Odd-Eyes Light Phoenix and Performapal Odd-Eyes Unicorn in his Pendulum Zones, then Pendulum Summons Xiangsheng Magician (500/1500) and Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon (2500/2000), both in Attack position. Yuya activates the effect of "Xiangsheng", changing its ATK to "Odd-Eyes"'s, until the End Phase ("Xiangsheng": 500 → 2500 ATK). "Odd-Eyes" attacks "Rudder Strix", but Shay activates Raidraptor - Risky Flight, allowing him to negate the destruction of a Level 4 or lower "Raidraptor", halving the battle damage, and ending the Battle Phase (Shay: 4000 → 2750 LP). Shay activates the effect of "Rudder Strix", allowing him to Special Summon two "Raidraptor" from his Hand when it is attacked. Shay Special Summons two other copies of "Rudder Strix", both in Attack position, with their effects activating and inflicting 300 damage to Yuya (Yuya: 3700 → 3400 → 3100 LP). The effect of "Xiangsheng" ends ("Xiangsheng": 2500 → 500 ATK).

 Turn 3: Shay 

Shay overlays his three copies of "Rudder Strix" to Xyz Summon Raidraptor - Rise Falcon (100/2000, ORU: 3) in Attack position. Shay activates the effect of "Rise Falcon", detaching an Overlay Unit (ORU: 3 → 2) to increase its ATK to the combined ATK of all Special Summoned monsters his opponents control until the End Phase ("Rise Falcon": 100 → 3100 ATK). "Rise Falcon" attacks and destroys "Odd-Eyes" (Yuya: 3100 → 2500 LP). "Rise Falcon" attacks "Xiangsheng". Yuya finds and activates the Action card Miracle. Shay finds and activates the Action card Encore, allowing him to copy the effect of an Action Card in his Graveyard. Shay uses the effect of "No Action", negating and destroying "Miracle". Yuya finds and activates another copy of "Encore", and copies the effect of "Miracle" to negating the destruction of "Xiangsheng" by battle and halving the battle damage (Yuya: 2500 → 1200 LP). Shay sets two cards, and the effect of "Rise Falcon" ends ("Rise Falcon": 3100 → 100 ATK).
