Knowing the in and out of Playmaker's deck, Cal launches a relentless attack against him and does all he can to protect Jin. On the other hand, Playmaker just can't attack, and gets driven into a corner. Playmaker’s Life Point is now dangerously low. Cal then starts talking about the promise the two of them made in the past.

Featured Duel: Playmaker vs. Cal Kolter

Duel continues from the previous episode.

Turn 4: Playmaker Playmaker activates the Continuous Spell Card "Link Satellite", letting him target a Link Monster he controls and place Satellite Counters on "Link Satellite" equal to the targeted monster's Link Rating. He targets "Decode Talker" (Satellite Counters: 0 → 3). While "Link Satellite" is on the field, neither player can declare an attack, but it will be destroyed when the last Satellite Counter is removed from it. Playmaker sets a card, and during the End Phase he removes a Satellite Counter from "Link Satellite" because of its effect (Satellite Counters: 3 → 2).

Turn 5: Cal Kolter Kolter Normal Summons "Codebreaker Zero Day" (1800/0), then uses "Zero Day" and "Codebreaker Virus Swordsman" to Link Summon "Codebreaker Virus Berserker" (2800/LINK-3/↑↓→). Kolter then activates "Virus Berserker"'s effect as it is Special Summoned and co-linked, letting him target 1 Link Monster on the field and Special Summon up to 2 "Codebreaker" monsters from his hand or GY to to any zone the targeted monster points to. Kolter targets "Decode Talker" and Special Summons "Zero Day" (1800/0) in Defense Position from his GY to a Zone that 'Decode Talker" points to. Kolter then activates "Zero Day's" effect where non-"Codebreaker" Link Monsters that point to this card will have their ATK/DEF increasing effects reversed (except multiplications and dividing). As a result, "Decode Talker" loses 500 ATK because it points to another monster ("Decode Talker": 1300 → 800 ATK). As a "Codebreaker" monster was summoned to his field, the effect of "Codebreak Backfire" inflicts 600 damage to Playmaker (Playmaker: 1800 → 1200 LP). Kolter activates the other effect of "Virus Berserker", letting him destroy face-up Spell/Trap Cards Playmaker controls equal to the number of "Codebreaker" monsters Playmaker controls and inflict 600 damage for each destroyed card. He destroys "Link Satellite" (Playmaker: 1200 → 600 LP).

"Virus Berserker" attacks "Decode Talker", but Playmaker activates his set "Link Cancel", letting him target 1 Link Monster on the field that was Link Summoned using only Link Monsters as material, return it to the Extra Deck and Special Summon the monsters used as its Link Material from the GY. Playmaker returns "Decode Talker" to the Extra Deck and Special Summons "Link Spider" (1000/LINK-1/↓) and "Protocol Gardna" (1000/LINK-2/←→) from his GY. A replay occurs and "Virus Berserker" attacks "Protocol Gardna" (as the first effect of "Protocol Gardna" prevents monsters it points to from being selected as attack targets), but due to the second effect of "Protocol Gardna" it cannot be destroyed by battle the first time it is attacked, and Playmaker takes no Battle Damage from that battle.

As he controls a "Codebreaker" Link Monster, Kolter activates the Continuous Spell Card "Codebreak Bind", preventing monsters that aren't linked to a "Codebreaker" monster from declaring attacks. In addition, if Playmaker Special Summons a monster that is then linked to a "Codebreaker" monster, and that monster destroys a monster by battle and sends it to the GY, "Codebreak Bind" will be sent to the GY and Playmaker will take damage equal to the destroyed monster's original ATK.

Turn 6: Playmaker Playmaker uses "Link Spider" and "Protocol Gardna" to Link Summon "Extended Decode Talker" (2300/LINK-3/↙↑↘) to the Right Extra Monster Zone. The effect of "Extended Decode Talker" increases its ATK by 500 for every monster it points to, but the effect of "Zero Day" reverses those ATK changes ("Extended Decode Talker": 2300 → 800 ATK). Playmaker activates "Decode Destruction", letting him target a "Decode Talker" he controls and apply up to 3 effects depending on how many monsters it points to. "Extended Decode Talker" is always treated as "Decode Talker" and it points to 3 monsters, so all 3 effects of "Decode Destruction" apply. The first effect increases the ATK of "Extended Decode Talker" by 500 for every monster it points to ("Extended Decode Talker": 800 → 2300 ATK).

"Extended Decode Talker" attacks "Virus Berserker" and as his Cyberse monster is battling Playmaker activates the Quick-Play Spell "Cyberse Pride", letting him target that monster and make it unable to be destroyed by that battle. Since it is battling a monster with higher ATK, the other effect of "Cyberse Pride" lets him pay LP equal to the difference to increase the ATK of his battling monster by the same amount (Playmaker: 600 → 100 LP) ("Extended Decode Talker": 2300 → 2800 ATK). The attack continues and only "Virus Berserker" is destroyed. The second effect of "Decode Destruction" then banishes "Virus Berserker" as it was destroyed in battle by the targeted monster, which prevents the effect of "Codebreak Bind" from activating as the destroyed monster was not sent to the GY. As a "Codebreaker" Link Monster was destroyed by battle or card effect, both copies of "Zero Day" are destroyed by their own effects ("Extended Decode Talker": 2800 → 4300 ATK). The final effect of "Decode Destruction" allows Playmaker to destroy all cards Kolter controls after damage calculation since the targeted monster destroyed a monster by battle. As a monster that "Extended Decode Talker" pointed to was destroyed by battle or sent to the GY during Playmaker's Battle Phase, its effect lets it make a second attack during this turn's Battle Phase. "Extended Decode Talker" attacks Kolter directly (Kolter: 4000 → 0 LP).
