Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 1198

Chapter 1198: Chapter 1198: That’s the Spirit!

"Blackwing Armor Master, attack Raviel!"

With only 2500 ATK, Armor Master spread his wings and charged toward the towering Raviel. The difference in size was as great as a mantis blocking a chariot.

Kira narrowed his eyes, "But that effect..."

Armor Master’s punch crashed into Raviel. But of course, with such a power gap, Raviel didn’t budge, like a mosquito hitting a wall—completely unaffected.

Of course, Armor Master couldn’t be destroyed by battle, so he was safe.

But as Armor Master retreated, if you looked closely, you could see a tiny nail-like object left on Raviel’s huge body where the punch landed.

Crow: "Armor Master’s monster effect! Any battle damage I take is reduced to 0, and after battling, I place a wedge counter on the opposing monster!"

So in effect, it places a wedge marker.

"Now I use Armor Master’s effect again!" Crow called. "By removing that wedge counter, until the end of this turn, the monster’s ATK and DEF become 0!"

"Oh?" Kira replied, "That effect can be used in the Battle Phase too?"

He thought briefly—it was true, the anime Armor Master would remove the wedge in the same Battle Phase, letting other Blackwings immediately finish the opponent.

This ability was way better than the printed card, which only removes the wedge in Main Phase. That means if you wedge an enemy in battle, the earliest you could drop their stats is the next turn—assuming Armor Master even survived.

Crow: "Drop Raviel’s ATK to zero!"

The wedge was removed. Instantly, cracks spread outward from the wedge across Raviel’s body, webbing like a spider’s web—until the giant demon looked like he was about to shatter like porcelain.

[Lord of Phantasms Raviel, ATK 4000 → ATK 0]

"Continue the battle!" Crow commanded.

"Blackwing - Bora the Spear, attack Raviel!"

That’s the strength of anime Armor Master: you can bottle up the boss in the same Battle Phase and immediately finish with a follow-up. Bora leapt, lance spinning, a shockwave blowing through Raviel’s chest through the cracks.

A resounding crash. Raviel’s body collapsed, crumbling into countless shards and debris.

[Kira, LP 7400 → LP 5700]

"How about that! Defeated the strongest Sacred Beast!" Crow said. "This is the strength of the Blackwings—together, no matter how strong the enemy, we can topple them!"

Kira dusted himself off, "That’s not a bad point."

But then he smiled and added,

"Well, even with your proud Blackwings, you’re only bringing out a fraction of their potential."

"Nani?" Crow demanded angrily. "What did you say?"

To question his strength, fine. He could admit the opponent might be better in a straight fight. But to doubt his connection, his bond with his monsters—that he couldn’t bear!

"The Blackwings’ potential is far greater than you think, Crow Hogan. Right now you’re using just a tiny bit of it."
