Yu-Gi-Oh PbP Exhibition: Circle of Life vs. Blue Ghost

[Blue Ghost]

A calm spring day, clouds drifting gently across the sky. A young woman with red hair stands in a field amidst the flowers.
Ah, springtime. What is not to love about it? Come friend, let us duel.

[Blue Ghost]

[Circle of Life]

Burn it, burn it, burn!

It's actually rather nice. Enjoy it while you can.

Ah, a challenger. Burn them instead.

A young boy looks up at the woman through a mop of dark hair. His face is streaked with dirt, and his eyes have a haunted look to them.

"They say I'm supposed to burn this. Well, some of them. I don't want to. Will you stop me?"

Impressive move, but that shall not be enough.

[roll0]

I summon Debris Dragon (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Debris_Dragon), and with his effect Special Summon Lonefire Blossom (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Lonefire_Blossom) from my Graveyard. I tune Debris Dragon with Lonefire Blossom! Flowers of springtime, burst into bloom! Awaken the earth from its slumber! I Synchro Summon Black Rose Dragon (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Rose_Dragon), and with its ability, destroy all cards on the field!
A tiny glowing flowerbud and a small winged dragon appear and merge into the splendid Black Rose of legend. The field is engulfed in a wave of black fire, destroying everything in play.
My monster destroyed was Dandylion (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Dandylion), who when destroyed produces two Fluff Tokens in Defense Position. I end my turn.

Are those voices in your head still speaking to you? Maybe they should come out and face me themselves.

[roll0]

[color=darkorchid]I reveal Nettles (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Nettles) in my hand to keep my Gravirose on the field, and with Gravirose's effect, I send another Nettles from my Deck to the Graveyard.[/spoiler]

"Gravirose attacks my Decoy Dragon. I bring out and redirect your attack to my White Night Dragon (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/White_Night_Dragon)."

"Gravirose attacks my Decoy Dragon. I bring out and redirect your attack to my White Night Dragon (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/White_Night_Dragon)."

((Sorry Circle but check Decoy Dragon's rulings. As it was facedown when attacked its effect does not trigger.))

[Blue Ghost]

((Decoy Dragon must be face-up when it's attacked for its effect to activate, as per the third ruling (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Card_Rulings:Decoy_Dragon).))

EDIT: Ninja'd... in a Yu-Gi-Oh match.

[Circle of Life]

(...Uh. Well then. Didn't know that. As it's more or less invulnerable to direct attacks, any chance I could retcon that into a normal summon?

If not, I forfeit this match and ask for a second, since the lead is too huge to catch up now.)

[Blue Ghost]

((All right. I'll be editing my turn then.))

[Blue Ghost]

Your Decoy Dragon cannot stop the onset of spring. I activate Mark of the Rose (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Mark_of_the_Rose), powered by the Nettles in my Graveyard, to take control of your Decoy Dragon. I then summon Nettles (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Nettles), who tunes with Gravirose and Decoy Dragon to Synchro Summon Stardust Dragon (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Stardust_Dragon)! Stardust Dragon attacks directly, and I end my turn.
