Futoshi Harada vs. Takeshi Shimizu
Duel is shown from an unspecified turn. Futoshi controls "Sketch Beast - Stego" in Attack Position and has 900 Life Points, while his opponent Takeshi controls "Red Mask" in Attack Position and has 2200 Life Points.

Takeshi's turn

"Red Mask" attacks "Sketch Beast - Stego", but Futoshi activates his face-down "Sketchbook - Blocking the Way", which allows him to negate an attack when he controls a "Sketch" monster.

Futoshi's turn

Futoshi draws "Sketch Beast - Tyrano" (2400/1200). He Releases "Stego" to Advance Summon "Tyrano" with one Release. As it was successfully Advance Summoned, Futoshi activates its effect, destroying a monster his opponent controls and increasing the ATK of "Tyrano" by half the ATK of the destroyed monser until the End Phase. "Red Mask" is destroyed ("Tyrano" 2400 → 3200). "Tyrano" attacks Takeshi directly (Takeshi: 2200 → 0).
