Watching Yu-Gi-Oh! short videos is making the veteran players lose...

Seeing the "Farmer's Three Punches" deal 7500 damage in a single blow, and knowing the monster could attack three times, the total potential damage was a terrifying 22,500! Wait, even three Blue-Eyes White Dragons standing on the field couldn't withstand such a powerful attack! The HERO deck, with its lower-level monsters rarely breaking 2000 ATK, could produce a high-level Fusion monster capable of such an absurdly powerful offensive lockdown?!

Seto Kaiba couldn't sit still anymore! He had originally planned to resume the KC Cup after the Blue-Eyes video, but now, the KC Cup could wait! He immediately ordered all KC screens to broadcast the content of this short video.

"Hehehe! HEROes? Using my Blue-Eyes White Dragon as a punching bag for your demonstration?" Kaiba sneered, even though he knew the person in the video couldn't hear him. "Fine, fine, I think I understand now! This archetype doesn't lack for powerful offensive plays! A pity that compared to Blue-Eyes, it's definitely an inferior deck!"

The nearby Joey and Mai exchanged glances. They hadn't expected the video to use Blue-Eyes as the example opponent. Now this guy had really kicked a steel plate. Yugi and Atem, however, were engaged in a heated discussion about the HERO deck. Atem thought the system was still missing something, while Yugi gave it a perfect score!

By the time Trinity of the "Farmer's Three Punches" appeared, Jaden and Aster were speechless. If they were filled with joy and surprise at the 5000 ATK and Trinity's powerful triple attack, then seeing it combined with Honest Neos for an absurd 2500 ATK boost turned their joy and surprise into sheer terror. A single 7500 ATK punch! Who could survive that?

"Alright, so HEROes have become this unbelievably strong now. I can't even imagine what Zane's Cyber Dragons will be like."

"I have to say, we all know Blue-Eyes belongs to President Kaiba, but I never thought HEROes would secretly be on the verge of surpassing it!"

"Indeed, shouldn't Blue-Eyes be stronger in comparison?"

"By the way, there's still the other line of play! Let's keep watching! I wonder what archetype will come after HEROes!"

"...."

The discussion among the students and teachers brought Jaden and Aster back to their senses. That's right. This was only the first line of play. They didn't know what kind of absurd board the second one would create!

...

Returning to the short video, The Noble Shadow HERO Player immediately began explaining the second line of play!

The Noble Shadow HERO Player: "Alright, let's rewind to the setup with Xtra HERO Cross Crusader."

The Noble Shadow HERO Player: "As I said, there's another line of play."

The Noble Shadow HERO Player: "This second approach is how you do it, and it's a crucial line for setting up a first-turn board."

The Noble Shadow HERO Player: "First, just like before, activate Cross Crusader's effect to revive Malicious."

"Next, tribute Malicious. With Cross Crusader's effect, we search this card from the deck!"

"Destiny HERO - Denier!"

"Remember this card. It's a mandatory one-of in every HERO deck!"

"After that, we're going to Link Summon using Elemental HERO Sunrise and Xtra HERO Cross Crusader!"

Sunrise, used as Link material? No way! This ace monster... used as material just like that?

Before anyone could think too much, the video's voice continued!

"Here we're going to bring out our second crucial Link Xtra HERO monster!"

"That is!"

"The essential Link-2 HERO monster!"

"Xtra HERO Wonder Driver!"

[Card Name: Xtra HERO Wonder Driver (Link-2)]

[Attribute: LIGHT]

[Type: Warrior]

[ATK: 1900]

[Link Arrows: [↑][↓]]

[Effect: 2 "HERO" monsters]

[You can only use the ① effect of this card's name once per turn.]

[①: If a "HERO" monster is Normal or Special Summoned to a zone this card points to: You can target 1 "Polymerization" Spell Card, or 1 "Change" Quick-Play Spell Card in your GY; Set that card to your field.]

[②: If this card is destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect and sent to the GY: You can Special Summon 1 "HERO" monster from your hand.]

Another Link-2 monster? The duelists from all six worlds immediately focused their attention on this second Xtra HERO card!

One look was all it took to be silenced again. They didn't understand! Was it really worth sacrificing the powerful Sunrise to summon this monster? Was this card really that strong? One effect recycled a card, and the other Special Summoned from the hand if destroyed. Could these effects really be useful? Why was it considered an essential card?
