Last Solution:

I do apologize to all of the people that spent time on the original version of this puzzle. If you will look back, you can see that it has been edited, with a large increase in Life Points. If you still want to have a go, don’t read this.

1. Tribute Witch of the Black Forest to activate Enemy Controller’s second effect to take control of Thousand-Eyes Restrict.

a. Use Witch’s effect to add Makyura the Destructor to your hand.

2. Activate Book of Moon, targeting Thousand-Eyes Restrict.

3. Activate Soul Release, targeting Gyaku-Gire Panda, Jinzo, D. D. Warrior Lady, and Big Shield Guardna.

4. Activate The Shallow Grave. You select Mask of Darkness and your opponent selects Weather Report.

5. Activate Change of Heart to take control of Weather Report.

6. Flip Summon Magician of Faith and Thousand-Eyes Restrict.

a. Use MoF’s effect to add Change of Heart to your hand.

7. Use Thousand-Eyes Restrict’s effect, targeting Zombyra the Dark.

8. Discard Makyura the Destructor to activate Monster Reincarnation, targeting Kinetic Soldier.

a. Makyura’s effect activates.

9. Normal Summon Kinetic Soldier.

10. Activate Destruction Ring, targeting Thousand-Eyes Restrict (your LP now 1100 and his LP now 10,800).

11. Activate Change of Heart to take control of D.D. Survivor.

12. Activate Desert Sunlight.

a. Use Mask of Darkness’s effect to add Destruction Ring to your hand.

b. Use Weather Report’s effect to destroy Swords of Revealing Light. You have two Battle Phases this turn.

13. Turn Weather Report to Attack Position. This is possible as it has not been summoned to the turn player’s side of the field this turn.

14. Have Kinetic Soldier attack Exiled Force and D.D. Survivor, Weather Report, and Magician of Faith attack directly for 1350 + 2000 – 1000 + 1800 + 300 + 950 = 5400 damage (his LP now 5400).

15. Attack directly with all monsters in your second Battle Phase to do 1800 + 1350 + 300 + 950 = 4400 damage (his LP now 1000).

16. Activate Destruction Ring, targeting Weather Report.

Final Result: Him - 0, You – 100

Also, just before I sent this out, Tomer managed to get me an alternate answer which I like.

7)Activate Desert Sunlight flipping Magician of faith, mask of Darkness and Weather Report face up defense position

a)Use Magician's effect to move to Enemy Controller to your hand

b)Use Mask of Darkness to move Ultimate Offering to your hand

c)Use Weather Report to destroy Swords of revealing Light

8)Summon Witch of the Black Forest in attack mode

9)Activate Enemy Controller to tribute Witch of the Black Forest and move D.D. Survivor to your side of the field

12)Flip Magician of faith into attack position

14)Attack directly with Blade Knight, Kycoo, D.D Survivor and Magician of faith twice: (1800+1800+2000+300) X 2=11800

You: 1100 him: 0

Problem – Win the Game in One Turn:

I might be going soft. This puzzle could actually happen in real life. Yes, the hand is rather big, but it could just be early in the game. And to explain the lone Mof, a Threatening Roar could be in your Graveyard. Strange, isn’t it?

Field: (the upper part of the screen are your opponent’s cards)

	Royal Decree (face-down)	Snatch Steal (face-up equipping Berserk Gorilla)	Sakuretsu Armor (face-down)
	Chiron the Mage (face-up ATK)	Berserk Gorilla (face-up ATK)	Gigantes (face-up ATK)
------------------	-------------------	------------------	------------------	-----------------
		Magician of Faith (face-down DEF)
		Metalmorph (face-down)

Your Hand:
Mystic Plasma Zone, Nobleman of Crossout, Book of Moon, Monster Reincarnation, Premature Burial, Blade Knight

Your Life Points: 1500

Your Opponent’s Life Points: 8000

Your Deck Contains the Following Cards That You Can Obtain:
Cannon Soldier, Don Zaloog, Spirit Reaper, Mystic Tomato

Your Graveyard Contains:
Mystical Space Typhoon, Enemy Controller, Dark Ruler Ha Des, Mystic Tomato

You start during your Main Phase 1 having done nothing this turn.

During the Battle Phase, if you attack with a monster equipped with Metalmorph, or activate Metalmorph, your opponent will chain Royal Decree.

If you attack with a monster that has a higher ATK than that of its attack target or attack directly, your opponent will chain Sakuretsu Armor.

Your opponent will not activate Royal Decree during a chain in which Sakuretsu Armor has been activated.

Your opponent has five cards remaining in his Deck and zero cards in his hand.

You own Berserk Gorilla. All other cards are controller by their respective owners.

This one just feels right. I hope it isn’t that easy. Would be a shame if it was, ‘cause it’s a nice puzzle in my opinion.

Now, to my readers who happen to be in England in the next month, UDE is running another Summer Tour this year (if you hadn't heard). Two events have already finished, but if you want to win some packets (possibly TP6) for free in a Traditional format tournament, or just want teach someone the game with expert help, go here:

The MK Centre	Milton Keynes	Fri 27 – Sun 29 August
Meadowhall Shopping Centre	Sheffield	Sat 3 – Sun 4 September
Victoria Shopping Centre	Nottingham	Sat 10 – Sun 11 September

I'll be at the last two. See you there and bring someone along!
Vs. System and Winks are also being demo-ed at these events.

Share and enjoy,
