- Ass Pull: Weevil's Basic Insect destroying Yami Yugi's Griffore in spite of having two Equip Magic Cards which means Griffore should have reflected the attack back as damage while surviving.
- The most plausible answer is that maybe it depends on the type of Equip Magic card being used. Horn of the Unicorn was a magic lightning attack and thus counted as a magic attack. By contrast, The Laser Cannon with Armor and Power Boost cards seemed to be mechanical and cybernetic in nature, thus possibly not counting as magic. Given just how there was a thing in later episodes where Machine Monsters had a natural immunity to magic attacks, that suggests that maybe that could have made it so that Griffore couldn't defend against Basic Insect because it was being hit with a laser beam, not a magic attack. Duelist Kingdom frankly runs on what looks like some kind of unexplained tabletop game logic at times mixed with the cards, hence why it makes some sense in a "logical" sense, but not in regards to the actual text on the cards.
