During the battle between Shark and Vector, when Shark uses his Spear Shark to attack Vector's Gorgonic Ghoul, Vector activates this card, redirecting the attack to his Mermaid Shark.

During Edo Phoenix's duel with Fubuki Tenjōin, when Fubuki uses his Troposphere to attack Edo's Vision HERO Gravito, Edo activates this card, redirecting the attack to his Vision HERO Vyon.

The English anime gives it the description "Pay 1000 Life Points and declare the card name of a Level 8 or higher Monster Card. If the declared card is in your opponent's Deck, add that card from their Deck to your hand." It is used by Seto Kaiba, during one of his many duels with Yami Yugi.

Name: Rank Domination
Type: Continuous Spell
Description: Monsters without a Rank cannot declare an attack, also monsters the turn player controls can only attack in order of their Rank, starting from the lowest. During battle between 2 monsters that have a Rank, the monster with the lower Rank loses ATK equal to the difference in Ranks x 1000, during the Damage Step only.
Note: Do I really need to say it anymore? Used in ZEXAL episode 119, during the Duel between Eliphas and Yuma Tsukumo. Eliphas activates this card, after which the following occurs (because of the card forcing monsters to attack in order of their Rank). Eliphas's New Orders 8: Etheric Sebek attacks Yuma's Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory, but Yuma activates his card's effect, adding the attack of New Orders 8: Etheric Sebek to his card, bringing his card's total ATK to 5800. Rank Domination then lowers the ATK of Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory, due to it being a lower Rank than New Orders 8: Etheric Sebek, dropping its ATK to 2800 again. The attack continues, but since New Orders 8: Etheric Sebek is not a Numbers monster, Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory is not destroyed. Eliphas then attacks Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory with his New Orders 10: Etheric Horus, causing Rank Domination to drop Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory's ATK to 800 and causing Yuma to take 2700 points of damage, but again, Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory is not destroyed because New Orders 10: Etheric Horus is not a Numbers monster. Eliphas then attacks Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory once more with his New Orders 12: Etheric Maahes, dropping Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory's ATK to 0 thanks to Rank Domination's effect, meaning that if the attack is completed, Yuma will lose the Duel. However, at the last minute, Yuma activates the effect of the Rainbow Kuriboh in his hand, allowing him to equip it to an opponent's Xyz monster and prevent it from attacking. Yuma equips it to New Orders 12: Etheric Maahes, preventing the attack that would have finished him off, and returning Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory's ATK to its original value of 2800 since the Battle Phase has ended.
Later, Eliphas uses New Orders 13: Etheric Amon to attack Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory, again activating the effect of Rank Domination and causing Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory's ATK to drop to 0. Yuma counters with Purge Ray, allowing him to Tribute Numbers C39: Hope Ray Victory. He then activates Rainbow Kuriboh again, Special Summoning it in Defense Position in order to block the attack of New Orders 13: Etheric Amon. Yuma then Special Summons Numbers 39: Hope from his Graveyard thanks to the effect of Purge Ray. This is the last time the effect of Rank Domination is used in this Duel.
