1 How many life points was Weevil left with after Yugi activated Mirror Force during their duel?
Answer: 555

Duelist Kingdom functioned under very different rules; Mirror Force would inflict damage to the target based on the difference of ATK between the monster who triggered it, and the other monsters that were destroyed by it. Interestingly, because Weevil's Basic Insect had 2150 ATK, this should've dropped his life points to zero. However, this didn't occur.

Coincidentally, Yugi also could've destroyed any of Weevil's monsters if he played his Dark Magician in attack mode, but it dealt more damage to use the tactic that he did.

3 When dueling Mako Tsunami, Yugi played a card earlier in the duel. Mako then used Yugi's card because it pulled the tide of the water. What object and type of card did Yugi attack?
Answer: The Moon - Magic/Equip

Earlier in the duel, Yugi equips the moon card to his Silver Fang to increase his attack. However, when the Silver Fang was destroyed, the moon card stayed on the field. This rule not only violates regular equip spells rules, but also Combat Step rules, as he attacked a magic card instead of another monster on the field.

Answer: Sealed Exodia

Jounouchi was ashamed of losing, and couldn't face Shizuka. Ironically, he wouldn't have even made it into the tournament if he hadn't have had the Red Eyes in his deck, because his Duelist Level was too low to enter the tournament. But when the person signing people up for the tournament noticed Jounouchi's Red Eyes, he raised his level so he could compete. The God of Ra, or The Winged Divine Dragon of Ra, was not used by this person.

26 During Yugi's duel with Kaiba, what card combination did Yugi use to weaken Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon?
Answer: Living Arrow and Mammoth Graveyard

Living Arrow was a card that allowed the user to target an opponent's monster with a Spell Card that would normally affect the user's cards. In this case, Yugi chose Polymerization to fuse Kaiba's Blue-Eyes with Mammoth Graveyard. Because the two monsters are LIGHT and DARK attribute respectively, they couldn't properly combine, and Mammoth Graveyard caused Blue-Eyes to decay and lose an astounding 1200 ATK points every turn.

Living Arrow isn't a real card in the TCG, sadly. Just imagine what you could do with something like that!
