History Recap / YuGiOhArcVEp11AtOneWithTheSwordSynchroUserYaibaTodo

* HoistedByHisOwnPetard: Yaiba, twice. He uses the effects of his X-Sabers to send two cards from Gongenzaka's hand to the Graveyard, hoping to keep him from using Bigbenkai's discard effect. Unfortunately for him, ''both'' those cards have effects that activate ''from'' there, enabling Gongenzaka to force a draw.

* AccidentallyAccurate: In the English dub, Futoshi says that Gongenzaka has "only a card in his left hand" instead of "only one card left in his hand". Despite him considering amistake, however, Gongenzaka did have the card in his left hand, so it was still correct.

* OhCrap: Kit gets one when he realizes how Gongenzaka's deck works. Interestingly enough, ''Sora'' has a similar reaction.
* RewatchBonus: While Gongenzaka's lifepoints drop to 900, we can also see that he has two cards in his hand. [[spoiler: He was shown to have three a few moments before

* MutualKill: After stringing Yaiba along and luring him into a well placed trap intending to deal enough burn damage to defeat him, Yaiba turns the tables and redirects the damage towards Gongenzaka. This in turn forces Gongenzaka to use his Soulbang Cannon to damage both players and end the duel in a draw.

The third battle to determine the fate of the You Show Duel School, Gong vs a Synchro Summoner named Kit Blade (Yaiba Todo) continues. Using the swarming capabilities of his X-Sabers, Kit attempts to overwhelm Gong with powerful Synchro monsters, but Gong responds with his Superheavy Samurai Big Benkei and an arsenal of back-up monsters that can use their effects from Gong's hand and Graveyard to protect Benkei. Pushed back, Gong has no choice but to use the effect of his monster to end the duel in a Double KO.

With one win, one loss, and one tie, Ms Akaba suggests a fourth tiebreaker match between the two victors. Yuya steps up for it, but before Julia can step forward to face Yuya, (Declan (Reiji) steps from the shadows, revealing he was watching the duels all along, and challenges Yuya.

* BoringButPractical: Kit's strategy of the same play each turn and being able to loop his cards around is effective at maintaining field presence, but gets very old after a few turns, to the dismay of his audience.
* DisabilitySuperpower: In a sense. The Heavystrong style of dueling that Gong and his clan use relies on being rooted to the spot, never giving an inch and generally being defensive. Thus in an Action Duel, he never goes for Action Cards, despite their benefit. In actuality, he doesn't go for them because it hinders the effects of his Superheavy Samurais, which rely on having solely monsters in the graveyard, and no spells or traps. By building his deck entirely out of monsters, he guarantees his monster effects will go off without a hitch, while having a ton of variety in the cards he can use from both his hand and graveyard.
