I Play Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Game-Chapter 1454: Hand Destruction
Elemental HERO Absolute Zero was summoned!
Fae: "……"
I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that replacing the hand of the divine draw dog doesn't make any difference…
"The effect of ‘Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier' is activated!" Judai said, "If this card is used as Fusion Material for a ‘HERO' monster, and sent to the GY or banished: I can draw 2 cards, then discard 1 card."
Judai drew two cards and then quickly discarded one of them.
"Then enter the Battle Phase!" Judai waved his hand, "Use ‘Elemental HERO Absolute Zero' to attack the ‘Morphing Jar'!"
[Elemental HERO Absolute Zero, ATK 2500]
[Morphing Jar, DEF 600]
The frost rolled up, and the sharp blades transformed by the ice crystals pierced through like dense raindrops, and the Morphing Jar was blown to pieces on the spot.
But Fae smiled with a smile on his face.
"Open the set card: Trap Card – Back to the Front!" He waved his hand and flipped the backfield, "Target 1 monster in my GY; Special Summon it in Defense Position!
I revive the ‘Vampire's Curse' in the Graveyard!"
[Vampire's Curse, ATK 2000]
Judai: "?"
Another monster of unknown meaning appeared…
"Open the set card!" Brother Fae flipped the last card in his backfield, "Trap Card ‘Deck Devastation Virus'!
Tribute 1 DARK monster with 2000 or more ATK, and destroy all monsters with ATK 1500 or less on the opponent's field or in the hand!"
"Huh!?" Judai blinked.
"I release ‘Vampire's Curse', and destroy all monsters with ATK 1500 or less in your hand, Judai!"
The trap card released a dark virus, swallowing both cards in Judai's hand into the graveyard without any explanation!
At this point, Yuei Vu had already guessed what deck and tactics were used by Fae.
"Wow, it's pretty dirty." Yuei Vu raised his eyebrows, "This tactic… is it hand destruction?"
"Hand destruction?"
Yusei was stunned for a moment, and then he came back to his senses.
What a powerful tactic!
As we all know, card difference was always the main point in the Yu-Gi-Oh system. The amount of resources available to the duelists could often directly determine the outcome, and the hand was the most important part of the resources.
Hand destruction was a tactic developed with this in mind.
By destroying the opponent's hand and reducing the opponent's resources, the opponent could not smoothly execute his own tactics, or even having no cards to play and only staring at his defeat.
Thinking back to the first Yu-Gi-Oh World Championship in history, the deck that won the first world champion in history was a deck with "hand destruction" as the core.
And in the configuration of that deck, half of the cards were banned cards for the next ten years. Some of the overly powerful cards were released after their effects were castrated, and some others have not seen the light of day to this day.
Now let's look at Judai. In the first turn, he actually only played one "Miracle Fusion", yet he had only two cards left in his hand!

"Not only that," added Fae with a smile, "After the ‘Deck Devastation Virus' is activated, until the end of the opponent's 3rd turn after this card resolves, all monsters with an attack power of less than 1500 drawn by the opponent… must also be destroyed!"
The audience outside the venue was also a little shocked.
"Oh, what a terrible tactic!" The airplane head commentator also shouted, "Not only does it destroy the hand, but also the monsters in the next three turns are sealed!"
Three turns, and it only counted the opponent's turn, which meant a total of six turns.
Having no monster to play for six full turns, it was basically tantamount to a death sentence!
"This is not good." Yusei said, "Judai's HERO deck mainly relies on fusion, and there are few monsters with attack power above 1500 in the main deck.
Whether it is the Elemental HERO or Neo-Spacian, the attack power is relatively low…"
In other words, Judai had almost no monsters to play in this duel!
As the name of this "Deck Devastation Virus" showed, it was from the same series as the "Crush Card Virus" used by President Kaiba back then.
It's just that the president's card destroyed monsters with attack power above 1500 in the opponent's deck, while this one targeted monsters with attack power below 1500.
In fact, with the update of the version, destroying monsters with attack power above 1500 was not that fearsome. Because most decks had low-level monsters with attack power below 1500 in the main deck, the real trump cards were in the extra deck, which could not be affected by the "Crush Card Virus".
In contrast, this "Deck Devastation Virus" seemed a bit disgusting in the environment after the version upgrade.
Once it was successfully activated, it could make you lose all the springboards that could be used to summon big monsters!
"……My turn is over." Judai ended his turn helplessly.
Brother Fae smiled, exchanged glances with Snow Wave outside the field, and made a V-sign.
The fusion tactics that Judai often used was considered a typical card loss behavior by players. The shortage of hand cards had always been the enemy of heroes. Facing him as the opponent, hand destruction was undoubtedly a very good choice.
"My turn, draw!" Brother Fae was full of fighting spirit.
Seeing the hand card he drew, his eyes lit up.
Another good card!
"I summon ‘Kunoichi'!"
A female ninja wearing a V-shaped eyepiece appeared on the field. The ninja girl had a curvy figure, her long legs were covered with red stockings, and a scabbard was carried behind her hips. The image was very in line with the preferences of gentlemen.
[Kunoichi, ATK 1800]
"Then I'm going to activate this card —
— Spell Card ‘Creature Swap'!"
"Eh?" Judai's eyelids jumped, "This card is…"
"Each player must choose 1 monster they control and switches control of those monsters with each other." Brother Fae pushed the glasses on the bridge of his avatar's nose with a smile, "The monster I'm going to choose to exchange control, of course, is the ‘Kunoichi' on my field."
Judai looked at his field: "I only have ‘Elemental HERO Absolute Zero' on my field…"
"That's right, so give Absolute Zero to me!"
The female ninja looked at her master helplessly, and flew to Judai's field with a somersault. An invisible force bound Judai's Absolute Zero, and the big brother was also forced to be exchanged to Brother Fae's field.
"At this moment, the effect of ‘Kunoichi' is also activated!" Fae shouted, "When control of this face-up card changes, its new controller discards 1 random card!"
Judai: "!"
