While Nathaniel was excited by the prospect of an Action Duel at first, the beginning turns were enough to cause Nathaniel to physically cringe. It was looking to be another one-sided beatdown in favor of the black-haired girl. The red-haired girl couldn't even play monsters, while the black-haired one was swarming the field with her "Deepspace" monsters, whatever those were. At least the red-haired one managed to play out an Evasion, allowing her to stay in the game with 400 Life Points, but Nathaniel was sure that her loss was imminent. Then she started playing monsters. Nathaniel was skeptical of the good a low-level monster like that would do her, but it bought her enough time for her to pull off more plays. By the duel's end, Nathaniel was clapping with excitement at the brilliant reversal he had just witnessed.

[color=6ecff6]"Now that was a duel!"[/color] said Nathaniel, cheering from the stands. 

It was a fantastic Action Duel, with great use of Action Cards but not an overabundance of them. Not to mention the fact that the game was extremely close. It was certainly a lot better than the first duel, that was for sure. Still, it was a little upsetting that there was barely anybody watching this duel. Most other people still carried their impressions from that suckier first duel, which was troubling. But Nathaniel was glad that there were still people around who can appreciate a good Action Duel.

With that, Nathaniel decided to get out of his seat and head down to the arena to greet and congratulate the two on their outstanding performances.

[color=6ecff6]"That was a great game, you two!"[/color] Nathaniel said cheerfully as he approached them, raising a hand in friendly greeting. [color=6ecff6]"My name's Nathaniel, an aspiring Action Duelist myself, and you can definitely count me as a fan."[/color]
