Line 93:
*In Ep70:Instead of Playmaker being the one to introduce a summoning methord. It's Revolver who re-intruduces Synchro Summon in VRAINS. Also instead of slightly modifying the Tuner rings from 5D's like Arc-V they created a whole new summoning animation◊ for it. First all the monsters used as the Synchro Materials turn into rings which will then stack on top of each other. They then fuse together into one ring which will then split into several rings equal to the level of the Synchro Monster which causes it to look like a "tower". The Synchro Monster then materializes out of the "tower". This really gives us the image that the monsters are truly synchronizing with each other instead of that the Tuner Monster is tuning up the monster(s) that go through the ring(s).
*#73:Playmaker's skill updating from Storm Access to Neo Storm Access. Now instead of pulling a random Cyberse-type Link Monster from a Data Storm, Playmaker can now pull any Extra Deck Cyberse-type monster from a Data Storm. Yes, that means Playmaker can now add Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, and Link Monsters to his Extra Deck! Playmaker demonstrates this new ability for the first time in his third duel against Bohman by pulling Cyberse Quantum Dragon—a Synchro Monster—and subsequently summoned it.
*Go Onizuka's new skill, Anti-Skill. Not only does it negate the opponent's Skill, it also lets Go draw two card afterwards. And he created it himself thanks to seeing a new world after getting an AI implant in his brain. This makes Go currently the most dangerous duelist in a speed duel.
*Blue Girl pulling a Big Damn Heroes moment as she shields Aqua from Blood Shepherd's attack with her D-Board. Emma was able to track Aqua down, allowing Blue Girl to save her. She knew she's unable to understand the Ignis algorithm and use it, but she does know that Blood Shepherd does know how to do it and instead tracks him down to find Aqua.
*Blue Girl's transformation into Blue Maiden at the end of episode 77. The heroes have gathered and they head towards their target, Lightning, as they vow to save Jin and Miyu and rebuild the Cyberse World. *Ghost Girl and Blood Shepherd also show off their new Synchro monsters.
*Revolver using the classic card Imperial Order to negate Blood Shepherd's Continuous Spell.
*Playmaker and GO's second Speed Duel:
**Part two of the duel has Playmaker reintroduce Xyz Summoning after he acquires "Firewall Xceed Dragon" via Neo Storm Access. Like with Synchro Summoning, the reintroduction of Xyz Summoning is complemented with a unique animation, differentiating itself from the ones used in ZEXAL and ARC-V.
**Even with Firewall Xceed Dragon's debut, what actually wins Playmaker the duel is an extremely clever combo: he destroys Go's World Dino Wrestling to allow more than one of his monsters to attack, but King T Wrextle's effect forces Firewall Dragon to be the first attacker regardless or Playmaker can't attack at all (and attacking T Wrextle with Firewall would lose him the duel).
**The observing Soulburner and Blue Maiden conclude that he's finished. Playmaker promptly declares the attack to a Big "NO!" from Ai, but it's accompanied by a Theme Music Power-Up as he uses Firewall Guardian's effect from the Graveyard to negate Firewall Dragon's attack, then render T Wrextle unaffected by the effects of other cards and reduce its ATK to 0. Since Firewall Dragon declared an attack, the condition of T Wrextle's effect is fulfilled, allowing Firewall Xceed Dragon to deliver the final blow.
**Akira finally deciding it's enough and disobeys his boss, Queen, by forcing GO to log out of LINK VRAINS. This not only saves GO's life, but also prevents Playmaker and Ai's capture while pissing Queen off.
*Playmaker's team and the Hanoi work together to reactivate the Tower of Hanoi still remaining in the old LINK VRAINS. With its program modified to work as a powerful scanner to find Lightning.
*Lightning's base turns out to be a mirror version of LINK VRAINS which can't be normally seen because it exactly overlaps with normal LINK VRAINS. This also shows they weren't kidding when they said that Lightning is the fastest of the Ignis since he was able to create a mirror copy of LINK VRAINS which overlaps with the original in no time all on his own.
*Blue Maiden using a new deck, Marincess, to show the unity between her and Aqua and defeating the BitBoots and Haru with ease.
*Episode 86, The duel between Specter and Lightning as two of the most nightmarish narcissists in Yu-Gi-Oh face off. At first it seems that Lightning will crush Specter via Extra Link until Specter steals the Game-Breaker card Judgement Arrows destroying Lightning's strategy, his lead, and his pride. Giving him a Breaking Speech that hits home and if the preview is any indication tears apart whatever façade of nobility Lightning had and revealed the arrogant megalomaniac that was always hiding within.
*Episode 87: "Chain Destruction"
**Spectre turning the tables on Lighting and creating two Extra Links like Lightning did in the previous episode, than takes it even further by creating Extra Link: Full Mode by filling all of his Monster Card Zones AND Extra Link Zones with Link Monsters, something Revolver admitted that he couldn't do.
**A villainous example, but Lightning destroying Spectre's entire field and predicting that Spectre would steal Judgement Arrows and defeati
ng him
*While Blue Maiden was unable to defeat Bohman, after encouragement from her brother, she decided to give it her all even when she knew she wouldn't stand a chance against him. This managed to impress Bohman who even let her meet her brother one last time as a sign of respect to her will.
**This is also a nice contrast to her loss to Spectre in season 1; in that duel, she was completely manipulated and played by Spectre and in the end of the duel she felt helpless, but in this duel she kept going even when she knew she wouldn't stand much of a chance against her opponent and put up a hell of a fight.
*Remembering his promise with Kusanagi, Playmaker finally goes serious and defeats him in a single turn. By Link Summoning his new Code Talker, Decode Talker Extend, and using it in combination with the Spell Card "Decode End". With them he was able to destroy Kusanagi's field and lower his LP in a single attack!
*Props to Kusanagi for managing to outsmart Lightning, feigning ignorance despite knowing that inevitably Lightning would use Jin as a hostage to blackmail him into fighting Playmaker and making preparations for when it finally did happen. When Lightning realizes he's been made the fool, he looks utterly pissed.
*Flame saving Soulburner from Windy by sacrificing himself in order to continue the duel.
Resolved by Flame's sacrifice, Soulburner summons his own LINK-4 Link Monster, Salamangreat Pyro Phoenix and immediately uses it to Super *Reincarnation Link Summon another copy whose effect nearly destroys Bohman's entire field.
*Bohman defeating Soulburner, unlike other antagonist who usually just use brute power to defeat their opponents. Bohman makes use of dice rolls in a way it's not just luck, but also calculates them in a way they always go right for him and even an Ignis is unable to know what he does. This shows him not only as a great strategist by using his cards to ensure that the odds are good for him regardless of the result of the dice, but also shows why he was created by Lightning as the successor of the Ignis.ng him was pretty cool and solidified Lighting as an even greater threat than what he already was.
*Bohman proceeds to do what was thought to be impossible and summons a LINK-5 Link Monster, the first of its kind.
