'''Winning Through Intimidation''' (Panik Attack - Part 2), known as '''Cut through the Dark! Sealing Swords of Light or Rend the Darkness! Sealing Swords of Light''' in the Japanese version is the fifteenth episode of the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (second series anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh! second series anime]].
 
==Summary==
Back at the [[Duel]], [[Yami Yugi]] and [[PaniK]] continue to exchange words. PaniK, trembling in fear, [[summon]]s [[King of Yamimakai]] and [[attack]]s, but the attack is redirected to [[Reaper of the Cards]] and takes a huge chunk of PaniK's own [[Life Points]].
 
Yami Yugi [[activate]]s [[Swords of Revealing Light]], revealing all of PaniK's [[Monster Card|monster]]s and preventing them from attacking for 3 [[turn]]s. PaniK counters with [[Card Appearances:Yellow Luster Shield|Chaos Shield]], [[Battle Position|switching]] all of his monsters to [[Defense Position]] and raising their [[DEF]].
 
Knowing that most of Yami Yugi's monsters are too weak to [[destroy]] his shield, PaniK demands he gives up, but Yami Yugi is not intimidated, claiming he knew PaniK's strategies the second he met him and that he walked right into his trap.
 
Yami Yugi [[summon]]s [[Catapult Turtle]], launching [[Gaia the Dragon Champion]] at [[Castle of Dark Illusions]], destroying the flotation ring. However, the castle is still standing.
 
Still unintimidated, Yami Yugi says the only reason why his castle is still standing is because [[Swords of Revealing Light]] are holding it up. Once they disappear, the castle comes crashing down.
 
Since PaniK has trapped his monsters inside the [[Yellow Luster Shield|Chaos Shield]], all of them are destroyed and PaniK loses the duel. PaniK tries to kill Yami Yugi by firing flames towards him, but his [[Millennium Puzzle]] protects him.
 
PaniK is then destroyed by Yami's magical powers. After the duel, Yugi offers [[Mai Valentine|Mai]] her [[Star Chips]] back, but Mai refuses to take them; she believes she does not deserve them. After [[Joey Wheeler|Joey]] plays around and tries to steal the chips, Mai demands that he give them back, and he does. As Yugi and the group leave, Mai thanks Yugi for his effort, saying that when they meet again, she will repay him and face him in an honorable duel.
 
==Featured Duel: Yami Yugi vs. PaniK==
''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 014|Duel continued from previous episode.]]''
 
<u>'''Turn 11: PaniK'''</u><br />
[[Panik]] has four turns remaining. PaniK draws "[[King of Yamimakai]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it (2000/1530) in [[Attack Position]]). Since it is night, "King of Yamimakai: gains a Field Power Bonus ("King of Yamimakai": 2000 → 2600/1530 → 1989). "[[King of Yamimakai]]" [[attack]]s "[[Curse of Dragon]]", but "[[Spellbinding Circle]]'s" light redirects the [[attack]] to "[[Reaper of the Cards]]", [[Destroy|destroying]] the latter ([[PaniK]] 2000 → 494).
 
<u>'''Turn 12: Yami Yugi'''</u><br />
Yami Yugi [[Activate|activates]] "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]", revealing all of [[PaniK]]'s [[Monster Card|monsters]] and forbidding PaniK from [[attack]]ing for 3 [[turn]]s.
 
<u>'''Turn 13: PaniK'''</u><br />
[[Panik]] has three turns remaining. Due to "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]"'s effect, PaniK cannot attack for three more turns. PaniK draws "[[Yellow Luster Shield|Chaos Shield]]" and subsequently activates it to increase the DEF of all his [[Monster Card|monsters]] ("[[Castle of Dark Illusions]]": 1196/2509 → 3200; "[[Barox]]": 1794/1998 → 2600; "[[Dark Chimera]]": 2093/1898 → 2600; "[[King of Yamimakai]]": 2600/1989 → 2600) and [[Battle Position|switch]] them to [[Defense Position]].
 
<u>'''Turn 14: Yami Yugi'''</u><br />
Yami Yugi draws "[[Gaia the Fierce Knight]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it (2300/2100) in [[Attack Position]]. He then activates "[[Polymerization]]" to fuse "[[Curse of Dragon]]" with "[[Gaia the Fierce Knight]] in order to [[Fusion Summon]] "[[Gaia the Dragon Champion]]" (2600/2100) in [[Attack Position]].
 
<u>'''Turn 15: PaniK'''</u><br />
[[Panik]] has two turns remaining. Due to "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]"'s effect, PaniK cannot attack for two more turns. PaniK passes his turn (This turn was skipped.).
 
<u>'''Turn 16: Yami Yugi'''</u><br />
Yami Yugi passes his turn (This turn was skipped.).
 
<u>'''Turn 17: PaniK'''</u><br />
[[Panik]] has one turn remaining. Due to "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]"'s effect, PaniK cannot attack for one more turn. PaniK draws "[[Metal Guardian]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it in [[Defense Position]] (1150/2150). Since it is night, "Metal Guardian" gains a Field Power Bonus ("Metal Guardian": 1150 → 1495/2150 → 2795). Since "Metal Guardian" is in Defense Position, it will now guard all of PaniK's monsters.
 
<u>'''Turn 18: Yami Yugi'''</u><br />
Yami Yugi draws. He then [[Normal Summon]]s "[[Catapult Turtle]]" (1000/2000) in [[Defense Position]]". Yami Yugi then Activates the effect of "Catapult Turtle", increasing the ATK of "Gaia the Dragon Champion" by 600 ("Gaia the Dragon Champion": 2600 → 3200/2100) and Tributing it to [[destroy]] "[[Castle of Dark Illusions|Castle of Dark Illusions']]" flotation ring. Shortly after doing this, Yami Yugi takes damage ([[Yami Yugi]] 1606 → 300). However, "[[Castle of Dark Illusions]]" remains floating. [[Yami Yugi]] explains that the only reason "[[Castle of Dark Illusions]]" is still floating is because of "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]'s" [[Card effect|effect]]. Yami Yugi ends his [[turn]]. Because he did so, the effect of "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]" vanishes, causing "[[Castle of Dark Illusions]]" to crash down on PaniK's [[Monster Card|monster]]s, who are unable to leave because of [[Yellow Luster Shield|"Chaos Shield]]". This wipes out the rest of PaniK's [[Life Points]] (PaniK 494 → 0).
 
Yami Yugi wins. PaniK, angry that he lost, attempts to kill Yami Yugi with fire, but he gets killed instead (in the dub, Yami Yugi [[Send|sends]] him to the [[Shadow Realm]]).
 
==Differences in adaptations==
* The countdown is cut out from the Dub.
* "[[Yellow Luster Shield]]" is given a slight redesign in the US Version.
* The Japanese Player Killer has the kanji for "yami" or "darkness" on his cap, which is removed in the US Version.
* Before [[Yami Yugi]] [[send]]s PaniK to the [[Shadow Realm]], the letters P and K can be seen on either side of PaniK's jacket, presumably a reference to his Japanese nickname, Player Killer.
* As before, [[Barox]] has the purple background of a fusion monster in the US version, but it's a normal monster in the Japanese version.
* After Yami Yugi sacrifices Gaia, The Dragon Champion he has a concerned look in his face in the English version, but in the Japanese version he doesn't have one.
 
==Errors==
*When [[PaniK]] is becoming nervous after playing [[Yellow Luster Shield]], we see that [[Metal Guardian]] is on the field, while [[PaniK]] hasn't played it yet.
*Yugi's Life Point total is briefly shown as 1606 on the side of his podium before it is actually reduced to that number.
*When Joey is holding Mai's Star Chips it looks like there are seven instead of eight.
*The [[Swords of Revealing Light]] disappeared after two of [[PaniK]]'s turns, even though [[Yami]] said that it lasts for three of his turns.
 
==Trivia==
*[[Yami Yugi]] wins through what some fans have come to call the "''Catapult Turtle Flying Castle Gambit''", which is impossible in a [[duel]] mainly because it disregards [[Catapult Turtle]]'s actual [[effect]] and relies on a mechanic probability that would be incalculable in the real card game.
** However, if [[Catapult Turtle]]'s [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (second series anime)|anime]] [[Effect Monster|effect]] applies then [[Yami Yugi]]'s victory can be considered legitimate, as PaniK actually lost because of that particular anime-only effect of [[Catapult Turtle]] which states that a player could increase the [[ATK]] of a [[Monster Card|monster]] by 600, then [[Tribute]] it, to inflict [[Damage]] equal to half of its [[ATK]] to their opponent. Since [[Gaia the Dragon Champion]] had 3200 [[ATK]] then [[PaniK]] would have lost 1600 [[Life Points|LP]] going down to 0.
