King of Time Manipulator

So, you might have heard of "Time Wizard of Tomorrow", where you need to guess the coin call right in order to blast your opponent. Should you do it wrong, you will be dead but what if I told you that you can win either way with a crafty setup? Let's find out!

Gameplan

1) Plant five plants to opposing side with "Black Garden", which will be replaced with bigger monsters thanks to "Mystic Box" and "Monster Reborn". After that, activate "Lair of Darkness" and make sure Dugares is in your GY.

2) Place ME-PSY-YA on Pendulum Zone and Special Summon Chaos Emperor Dragon with its ability to have Primal Seed setup ready. As long as you don't banish Ancient and Librarian by accident via Chaos Emperor, you will be fine.

3) After you have Link Summoned Saryuja, Special Summon "Fusion Parasite", letting you Fusion Summon. Use Parasite + Saryuja as materials and place it on Main Monster Zone (MMZ).

4) If you have Swirl + Ghost in-hand, activate Swirl to Fusion Summon Oracle by using Swirl + Ghost as materials in-hand and place it on Extra Monster Zone (EMZ). Also, activate "Forbidden Dress" on Oracle to not let it be destroyed. You will see why eventually.

5) Since Swirl + Ghost were sent to GY thanks to what you did in #4, revive them with "Monster Reborn" in addition to Formula. With Formula converted into DARK monster thanks to "Lair of Darkness" active in #1, you have 3 x Level 2 DARK monsters. It means you can bring forth Number 43 by using them as materials. Also, activate Number 43 to equip Dugares to not let Number 43 be destroyed. You will see why later on.

6) Time to fill both sides with beefy monsters because "Time Wizard of Tomorrow" can deal damage equal to half the total original ATK of destroyed face-up monsters upon trigger. You can see the picture as reference below but I'll also take notes as well:

• Monsters were revived and given to opposing side with "Monster Reborn" and "Mystic Box", respectively, by replacing plants.
• Here is the maximum possible damage output. Mind you, any changes done by Saryuja/Garden and alike doesn't count, seen in the description of "Time Wizard of Tomorrow":
  • Opponent = 2800 + 2400 + 2200 + 2100 + 2200 = 11700
  • You = 3000 + 2500 + 2000 + 2000 = 9500
  • Total = (11700 + 9500) / 2 = 10600 >>> Lethal!
• Make sure you revive monsters illustrated above, if you play 2 x Upstart Goblin cards. These are all of highest ATK monsters you have in your arsenal but if you go second and your opponent places monsters higher than 2000 ATK, just keep them.

7) Finally, activate "Time Wizard of Tomorrow". So, here are two possible outcomes of coin flip:

• If you have guessed right, you can inflict lethal damage.
• If you have guessed wrong, you would have taken damage, had there not been Oracle and Number 43 without any protection done in #4 and #5. You see, when you would take damage, Oracle heals you with same amount. With Number 43 around, fortunately, you can inflict same amount of heal as damage for the FTK!

8) Congratulations, you win the game either way!
