Responding, Julia grabs her deck. She had to imagine Yoko likely ran similar cards to her sister, but she'd have to assume they wouldn't use the exact same set. Of course....Julia had access to a lot of other cards. She knew that Yoko would be expecting and likely ready to counter the Nekroz....so naturally, Julia pulled one of the spare practice decks she had for testing she took earlier today. Even she didn't know exactly what she would end up with, but that would make it all the more dangerous, since she had to assume Yoko believed this was coming for some time and had readied herself for countering ritual monsters.....hypothetically.
Like before, her opening draws weren't good. She still was almost amused to be using yet another water deck, but this trap based play might be a little difficult to manage here. Still.....it has a style of simply changing positions while summoning themselves as trap monsters. It would have to be done carefully, but it wasn't impossible to manage.
Opening her first turn, she made it rather simply, setting the trap down with another one. Still, she didn't quite know what this deck had for other support and if she couldn't destroy Yoko's backrow or get any other monsters out without much set up, it could be a problem.
"I set two cards down on my back row and end my turn."
Julia wasn't surprised to see her not running the same deck. She still played a zombie world in combination with pyro types...mainly Julia understood what she wanted to do. Zombie world didn't change the type of cards in the hand, so she could still special summon freely from it. Of course, Yoko was using an intentionally weak monster to bait for traps and wanted Julia to destroy it. Making up her mind, Julia choose not to active any of her traps and allow it to attack normally for now and save for more important monsters later.
The burning sting was much more different than it was, even in Angelica's duel. This felt much more real. Much more unpleasant.

However as Julia drew her next card, gritting her teeth and bearing with it, it looked like her luck was shaping up a bit. Yoko didn't have tons of field presence yet, but the way this deck functioned was on chaining traps and spells together. Biding her time wasn't a total waste.
While these monsters had strong effects, the issue came in their typically low attack power. However....she would need to hope she could draw it quickly.
Calmly, she placed down another trap card in position. Even if Yoko destroyed them, they wanted to be in the graveyard anyway to summon themselves as monsters.
"I set another face down card and end my turn."
Adam takes a seat at the restaurant. Just like home... He thinks to himself, perhaps a little snobbily. He orders some wine as he waits.
Julia looked a little surprised, at Yoko's surprisingly high level technical plays in contrast to the relatively simple but effective moves her sister made, however, the surprise wore off quickly as Julia as Julia shut her eyes for a moment, and slowly let out the words, with total confidence.
