It's pretty much Joal's special mechanic. I think he's one of the few characters that's unaffected if he gets hit by Shuk's Finisher (which aren't turned on for these first few games), which blanks out a character's Unique Ability for the rest of the duel if it hits. There actually *is* a Cancel, but it's on the same Special card that your finisher is on, and that card can only be used Once Per Duel, since it gets removed instead of recycled.
Granted, it still hurts.
...Oh, right, BEAT 5.

If you guys want, I may turn on the Special card for future fights.
AKA:
Which means Overdrive Finishers would be in play too.
The Devastation crew have two finishers to pick from, and you have to choose before the duel starts which you're using: either the alpha or the beta finisher. The Alpha's the recommended one, but the beta might be useful in some match-ups. Finishers are complete attack pairs on their own, and so won't get the bonus from your base choice.
Shekhtur:
Alpha Overdrive Finisher: Soul Breaker
1 Range 3 Power 3 Priority. "Let's see what you're made of..."
On Damage: The target is stunned and loses his or her Unique Ability and all tokens for the rest of the duel.
Beta Overdrive Finisher: Coffin Nails
1 Range 3 Power 3 Priority "Your fate is sealed!"
On Damage: The opponent loses all Soak and Stun Guard for the rest of the duel.
Joal:
Alpha Overdrive Finisher: Annihilation
1~2 Range, -2 Power, 4 Priority "One, two, three, and done."
Start of Beat: Reveal three bases from your hand. This attack has all effects of these bases and a power bonus equal to their combined power.
Beta Overdrive Finisher: Neutralizer
1 Range 12 Power 1 Priority "I just need one opening..."
Start of Beat: An adjacent opponent cannot move during this beat.
Malandrax:
Alpha Overdrive Finisher: Plots Within Plots
Range NA Power NA Priority 8 You're just playing deeper and deeper into my plan..."
After Activating: Set all of your remaining traps. For the rest of the game, you may set two traps during each ante phase.
Beta Overdrive Finisher: Deathtrap
Range NA Power NA Priority 0 "Let's see what's behind door number 2..."
Each time the opponent activates a trap this beat, that player loses 5 life and has -3 Power.
Eligor:
Alpha Overdrive Finisher: Sweet Revenge
1~2 Range X Power, 0 Priority "I will have my revenge...
Stun Guard 3
The power of this attack is equal to 3 times the printed power of the nearest opponent's attack pair.
Eligor's life cannot drop below 1 during this beat.
Beta Overdrive Finisher: Sheet Lightning
3~6 Range, 4 Power, 6 Priority "You're unworthy to be a part of my legend!'
On Hit: Advance until you are adjacent to the opponent. The opponent cannot move next beat.
Cadenza Overdrive Finish: Rocket Press
1 Range 8 Power 0 Priority
Soak 3, Stun Immunity
Before Activating: Move forwards 2 or more spaces.
Hikaru Overdrive Finish: Wrath of Elements
1 Range 7 Power 6 Priority
Reveal: Hikaru immediately antes all elemental tokens in his pool and applies them to this attack.
Kallistar Overdrive Finish: Supernova
1~2 Range, 8 Power, 5 Priority.
This attack may only be used in Elemental Form.
End of Beat: Kalllistar is eliminated from the game.
Khadath Overdrive Finish: Dimensional Exile
N/A Range 25 Power 0 Priority
Stun Immunity
The range of this attack is the space occupied by Khadath's Gate Trap Marker.

Coffin Nails seems like the less-situational of those to me, tbh.
GG; Man i screwed-up Beat 1 so bad, and for no reason. HERP DERP MOVE FORWARD 2 SPACES FOR NO REASON SUCH AN AWESOME PLAN
Thoughts? Comments? Do we want to keep going with these characters for the full best 2 of 3 set?
I'll pass the controller over to another player.
Game is superior to Yomi, in my opinion, but still doesn't really capture the feel of a fighting game. Still fun though.

You do sort of have to fill in the mashing in your head, but it plays out sort-of like a 2d fighter, what with discrete interruptions to what the other guy's trying and all.
The absence of chipping, okizeme, and juggles is probably forgivable.

Well, looking at Eligor, I'd be quite pleased to have specials available since Shekhtur's Alpha seems to ruin his day entirely. His look nasty as well, however.
*flips a couple of dip switches inside the machine*
Last question before we get this rolling again... do you guys want a Arena? They have a global effect that affects the board. (There's one, for instance, that doesn't have walls on the ends of the board, and if you move/get moved off it you fall and take damage, and then the board resets back to starting spaces.)

Ha! Nice battle and write-up! Also wanted to weigh in and say that Arenas REALLY unbalance some of the characters. You can certainly just play it for laughs, but one good way to use them is with a tag-team match centered around that Arena, where each player chooses 3 characters, or even with each player being given the exact same team. This changes the game from a character-matchup contest to a who-can-figure-out-how-to-abuse-the-Arena-effect-first contest. Which can be fun, but I think it's for quite experienced players only.
EDIT: Oh, and !QUARTER UP

Since both players have ante effects, we might have to go a little more traditional and have the players ante back and forth between each other in the thread. Any thoughts?

That's how I assumed we'd have to do it. You'll need to determine which of us starts for this beat, then I believe it's the previous beat's active player who begins. 14 beats out of 15 that's gonna be Sekhtur in this matchup anyway, for I am THE MIGHTY GLACIER. :P
Yeah, I figure we could just say Shek will basically always be considered to auto-ante her first token right away after attack pairs are locked in. And then Eligor can respond to that with tokens if he wants, and then Shek can respond to Eligor's tokens with more tokens, and on and on...
Speaking of which, attack pairs are in. Go nuts with antes.
Shekhtur auto-antes 1 Malice Token.
She has 2/5 ready.

That was start of the second beat so she had three from the first beat.
Huh. If a token ante is mandatory that screws up Beat 3 pretty badly.
Hindsight and whatnot, so we'll do that for further beats, but we can't really go back now. Especially since Beat 3 would've been a Clash.

Which means Overdrive Finishers would be in play too.
The Devastation crew have two finishers to pick from, and you have to choose before the duel starts which you're using: either the alpha or the beta finisher. The Alpha's the recommended one, but the beta might be useful in some match-ups. Finishers are complete attack pairs on their own, and so won't get the bonus from your base choice.

I'll pass the controller over to another player.
Game is superior to Yomi, in my opinion, but still doesn't really capture the feel of a fighting game. Still fun though.
The absence of chipping, okizeme, and juggles is probably forgivable.

Last question before we get this rolling again... do you guys want a Arena? They have a global effect that affects the board. (There's one, for instance, that doesn't have walls on the ends of the board, and if you move/get moved off it you fall and take damage, and then the board resets back to starting spaces.)

Since both players have ante effects, we might have to go a little more traditional and have the players ante back and forth between each other in the thread. Any thoughts?

That's how I assumed we'd have to do it. You'll need to determine which of us starts for this beat, then I believe it's the previous beat's active player who begins. 14 beats out of 15 that's gonna be Sekhtur in this matchup anyway, for I am THE MIGHTY GLACIER. :P
