Duel continues from the previous Scale.

Turn 4: Yūri

Yūri obtains an Action Card. He then proceeds to activate "Pendulum Fusion", fusing "Entermate Ballad" and "Entermate Barracuda" from his Pendulum Zones to Fusion Summon "Predator Plants Chimerafflesia" (★ 7/2500/???). Yūri attacks "Death-Toy Scissors Bear " (★ 6/2200/1800) with "Chimerafflesia", with the latter's effect activating; the ATK of "Scissors Bear" returns to its original value ("Scissors Bear": ATK 3200 → 2200), while "Chimerafflesia" gains the amount of ATK it lost ("Chimerafflesia": ATK 2500 → 3500) during the battle. Sora activates his face-down "Album of Memories" in an attempt to negate the attack, but Yūri activates the Action Card "Trap Eraser", negating the activation of "Album of Memories" and returning it to Sora's Deck. "Scissors Bear" is destroyed (Sora: 3200 → 1900).

Turn 5: Sora

Sora obtains an Action Card. Yūri activates the Action Card "Break Action", destroying the Action Card Sora has just obtained; however, that card was "Reaction Draw", which allows Sora to draw a card upon its destruction. Sora places "Furnimal Fusionist" (Left Pendulum Scale 1) and "Furnimal Angel" (Right Pendulum Scale 8) in his Pendulum Zones, allowing him to Pendulum Summon "Edge Imp Cotton Eater" (★ 7/2400/???). The effect of "Cotton Eater" activates, inflicting 100 damage to Yūri for each "Death-Toy" monster in Sora's Graveyard (Yūri: 2600 → 1600). Sora activates the Pendulum Effect of "Angel", Special Summoning "Patchwork Furnimal" (★ 1/0/0) from his Graveyard. Then, he activates the Pendulum Effect of "Fusionist", fusing "Cotton Eater" and "Bear" to Fusion Summon "Death-Toy Daredevil" (★ 8/3000/???). Sora attacks and destroys "Chimerafflesia" with "Daredevil" (Yūri: 1600 → 1100), with the latter's effect activating, inflicting 1000 damage to Yūri (Yūri: 1100 → 100).

At this point, Yūya convinces Yūri to allow him to switch back.

Duel continues in the next Scale.
