Vector VS Nasch
Turn 1: Vector
Vector draws the Continuous Spell Card "Don Thousand's Contract", and immediately activates it. Now, by paying 2000 of Nasch's Life Points (Nasch 4000 → 2000) both players draw 1 card, and any cards drawn by players must be revealed. If a player draws a Spell Card, they cannot Normal Summon for the rest of the turn. Nasch draws "Split Defender" while Vector draws "Umbral Horror Golem". Vector Normal Summons "Golem" (800/1600) and Sets 2 cards.
Turn 2: Nasch
Nasch draws "Rank-Up-Magic The Seventh One", preventing him from Normal Summoning this turn due to "Contract". Nasch activates "The Seventh One", letting him Special Summon a "Number 10X" monster from his Extra Deck or Graveyard, ignoring its Summoning conditions. He Special Summons "Number 101: Silent Honors Ark Knight" (2100/1000) in Attack Position. "The Seventh One" then Ranks it up, Special Summoning "Number C101: Silent Honors Dark Knight" (2800/1500) in Attack Position. Nasch activates the effect of "Dark Knight", attaching "Golem" to it as a Chaos Overlay Unit. "Dark Knight" attacks directly (Vector 4000 → 1200). Vector activates his set "Chaos Rising", letting him Special Summon a random "Number C" monster from his Extra Deck as he took 2000 or more Battle Damage from a "Number C" monster. Vector Special Summons Number C65: King Overfiend (1600/0) in Attack Position. Nasch sets 1 card.
Turn 3: Vector
Vector draws and activates "Chaos Mad Feast", letting him destroy "Don Thousand's Contract" and Special Summon up to 3 "Number C10X" from his Extra Deck since he controls a "Number C", ignoring the summoning conditions, but the effects of the summoned monsters are negated. He Special Summons "Number C104: Umbral Horror Masquerade" (3000/1500), "Number C102: Fallen Seraph - Noble Archfiend" (2900/2400) and "Number C103: Ragna Infinity" (2800/2400), all in Attack Position. "Umbral Horror Masquerade" attacks and destroys "Dark Knight" (Nasch 2000 → 1800). Nasch activates the effect of "Dark Knight", Special Summoning it from the graveyard as it had Overlay Units and gaining Life Points equal to its ATK (Nasch 1800 → 4600). "Noble Archfiend" attacks and destroys "Dark Knight (Nasch 4600 → 4500). "Ragna Infinity" and "King Overfiend" attack Nasch directly (Nasch 4500 → 1700 → 100). Vector sets 2 cards.
Turn 4: Nasch
Nasch activates "Split Defender", letting him take control of the monster with the highest DEF Vector controls as he controls 2 or more monsters while Nasch controls none (with Vector choosing which one should there be a tie). Vector activates with his set "Guard Off", changing the DEF of all monsters on the field to 0, while also inflicting 400 damage to Nasch for each monster affected. Nasch activates his set "Xyz Charge Up" in response, negating the effect damage. "Split Defender" then resolves, with Vector choosing to give control of "King Overfiend" to Nasch, as all of his monsters have the same DEF. Nasch activates the second effect of "Xyz Charge Up", sending it to the Graveyard to increase the ATK of 1 Xyz Monster he controls equal to the effect damage he negated ("King Overfiend" 1600 → 3200 ATK). "King Overfiend" attacks and destroys "Umbral Horror Masquerade" (Vector 1200 → 1000).
