Episode 197: Sinister Secrets (2)

As the Duel intensifies, Leon gets Yami down to nearly half his LP, leaving Yami struggling to defend his remaining LP. Finally, after taking down Leon's combo with a Trap Card, Yami manages to get a relatively storng monster out and nearly even the score. However, Leon's ultimate card is drawn and soon everyone comes to grips with what it can do after some modifications. Unfortunately, it doesn't just affect the field, it has begun deleting Kaiba Corp's files by the minute and Yami can't find any way to get rid of it.

Episode Cards
DUEL 1: Yami: QK, MF, PoG, Watapon (via its effect), DMG, MST

Deviations from the TCG
1. Players started with only 4000 LP.
2. Golden Castle of Stromberg was a limited release prize card that was forbidden in tournaments and not only forced the owner's opponent to pay the cost with half the cards in their Deck but also wasn't restricted to cards that listed it in their texts and couldn't be destroyed by card effects.

3. Prinzessin was called "Cinderella" in the Dub.
4. Players could alter the data of a card(s) to change its effect(s) in a Duel and/or make an illegal card legal for use.
Errors
1. In the Dub, Yami said he could Special Summon Watapon since it was added to his hand but he drew it with Pot of Greed and drawing and adding to the hand, while similar, are not the same. Adding to the hand is about finding a specific card whereas drawing comes from what's on top of the Deck.

2. Iron Knight's effect is still not explained.
