“An Unfortunate Report” can be a great way to force your opponent into a lose-lose scenario in a Yubel focused deck now that the Yubel archetype has new support cards; namely the “Nightmare Pain” continuous spell which not only forces your opponent to attack your Yubel/Yubel monsters and denies your opponent from dealing damage with battles involving those monsters but also denies the opponent from skipping the Battle Phase outright so the effect of “An Unfortunate Report” will be able to double the amount of damage the opponent will take from the Battle Phase if you’re using Yubel, Yubel: Terror Incarnate and/or Spirit of Yubel which usually only either Yubel: Ultimate Nightmare and the new Yubel fusion monster are able to do under the effects of Nightmare Pain. Admittedly it’s a pretty niche use and requires a bit of setup before you can properly make use of it but it’s also probably one of the best uses for it so far, only thing that you’d really have to watch out for is making sure that “Nightmare Pain” stays on the field.

[@Haosnir]

Or the opponent just skips their battle phase.

[@thecrimsoncreep6665]

​@@Haosnir Only works if they play Runick or something. Nightmare Pain forces them to go to Battle Phase. This is usually not necessary though, because Yubel only needs your opponent to attack 2 or 3 times with a 2k or higher monster to kill you

[@selectivepontification8766]

You're missing one thing: Yubel *destroys* monsters it battles so the second Battle Phase is pointless unless your opponent has monsters that are immune to destruction. It's not just a crappy winmore card that requires absurd amounts of setup (you need to have a Yubel monster and Nightmare Pain, as well as hard-drawing into Trap Trick or Unfortunate Report - which, of course, is completely useless on its own so it's the last thing you want to topdeck - and not run into any negation or destruction), but a crappy winmore card that doesn't even work unless your opponent runs a deck that enables it by having multiple monsters that are immune to being destroyed by Yubel while not having a single negate, removal effect, or Evenly Matched. And even then, your opponent has to be dumb enough to set up a board that runs into it, and they still have a whole Main Phase to... not do that. Even Yubel wouldn't touch this thing.

[@the_letter_j9223]

You could use it in combination with the continuous trap Greed which deals 500 point of damage every time your opponent draws outside of their draw phase. But with Maxx C being a key part of the TCG meta, you probably wouldn't need to. Either way, there are better options for that kind of combo.

Doesn't Pyro Clock also make Swords miss timing? As it destroys itself on the 3 turn after it's activated, can't you skip a turn to have it never blow itself up? Modern day, Nightmare Phoenix/Unicorn mean it's trivial to remove it, but in years bygone, spell/trap removal was harder to come by

The first time a card possessed by the turn player is destroyed by an opponent’s card or effect each turn, Move the turn count forward by 1 turn. The turn in which this effect is activated continues as normal._ 13:40 This one I’ll leave be for now, since Spellboud is now a MUCH better version of this card. 14:56 Idea to make this an equip spell: _Mounted Virus Cannon_ Equip Spell _Equip this card to 1 monster you control. Tribute any number of monsters, spells and/or traps from your hand or field: Your opponent send an equal number of cards of those tributes respective card types from their hand or deck to the GY (or all their Monsters/Spells/Traps, if lower than the number of respective Tributes).

The OCG version of Spellbinding Circle isn't necessarily depicting the Star of David, but the Kagome Crest! The six-pointed star (hexagram) is a pretty ubiquitous symbol with many meanings in many cultures, and in Japan especially you see it a lot as it is a symbol relevant to Shinto. It gets censored and removed from a lot of media and artword exported from Japan because we tend to only know of it as a representation for Judaism, but saying that the hexagram in Spellbinding Circle is the Star of David is as much of a misunderstanding as associating pentagram's exclusively with Satan. (if not more so, because we at least get that from Christians decrying the pagan practices which used the symbol as "satan worshippers", so its at the very least a deliberate and intentional misunderstanding, instead of being a conflation of two different symbols from two different contexts) (i feel a little nitpicky for saying this, but hey i figure if you wanted to nitpick that the pentagram depicted is more relevant to neopaganism than satanism, than what im posting isnt so bad)

[@STULF20X6]

Localized Tornado has unironically been a MVP in a lot of self mill decks I play; I prefer a good grind game in a deck if I'm allowed the option Top ten cards that kind of negate a card effect but doesn't (Dark Deal, Fusion Grapha, etc).

[@kashtiranaxxheart]

We actually have Localized Tornado banned in a discord group of ours because it promotes degenerative stall tactics. Also, in slower formats when you mill exclusively for plus and deck-out, if it resolves you just lose.

[@melvinshine9841]

It's kind of a shame the Top 10 Worst Counter Traps list already happened, since Dinomorphia Shell would've deserved a mention. The other Dinomorphia Counter Traps negate Spells/Traps, or monster effects, or copy other Counter Traps. All Shell does is make a token your opponent has to attack, and it can only be activated during their Battle Phase.

[@MarioMastar]

Personally I think the bigger shame is how 1/3 of the game is virtually obsolete due to the pace and power creep making them fundamentally "too slow" to be worth playing at all. It's a shame cause the Trap mechanic feels so Yugioh, it's just not the same game without it. The whole name of the game is outplaying your opponent and keeping them guessing. Fortunately Duel Links is just slow enough traps still get use.

[@ViralOtomo]

In regards to Unfortunate Report, you can use it in tandem with Number 2: Ninja Shadow Mosquito. It's a 0/0 rank 2 that forces the opponent's monsters to attack if able and activates (repeatable) effects when any attack is declared: 1. Detatch 1 for a non-targeted counter add that negates the monster's effect. 2. Inflict damage to your opponent equal to the ATK of a monster with one of these counters (does not target, can be on either field). So, making your opponent conduct their battle phase twice where they must attack with any attack-position monsters becomes a good chance of just deleting your opponent right there. Then again, there are smarter ways to support Number 2 than relying on a trap card.

[@Zorgdub]

Gift of Greed is one of the best cards in my Greed deck. You know, the trap that deals burn damage based on how many cards are drawn. It can be used in a few other *very* niche situations. I agree that it's pretty bad, but it can be worth the card use much easier than Fine or Pyro Clock of Destiny (I'm _still_ trying to make a deck that uses that card effectively).

[@angelagonzalez8250]

Curse of the Circle did have some niche use in early Duel Links formats: back when tribute summons were the name of the game and Synchro Summoning was very new, Curse of the Circle was an insane game changer that would leave a super weak card on the field that was meant to be summoned as tribute fodder. Sometimes it would be used on a Lava Golem that you’d drop on the opponents field so that they would have practically no way of getting rid of it, leading to very degenerate and gross victories through slow burns.

[@matthewpelletier4485]

Gotta say this script is great; very well written

[@MarioMastar]

Duel Logs really stands out as he doesn't just Assume everyone's a tryhard Tier 0 deck player. He explains why cards are bad in general and even attempts to give ideas of how the card could be useful to make it clear it's not because "it can't beat Tears" but rather because the effort it takes to get the same effect isn't worth it compared to other cards that could get the effect easier so it isn't even a case of "Run 6" like some of the polymerization cards. It's more like "You need 3 extra cards to run 4". Plus even terrible cards like Cold Feet can be used to decent effect with Mystical Rafpanel, but in Duel Links where Mystical Rafpanel doesn't seem to exist, I think it's mostly for that skill Tea has where you just give your opponent the card and hope they play it or just have it sit on thier board taking up a valuable space (those who play pendulums without using the skill to expand the board will be really upset). So it's something they'd have to deal with either way.

[@TaylorVie]

Considering how bad traps have become in recent years except in trap-based strategies it's amazing you were able to narrow the list down to only 10, there must've been dozens you had to review and decide upon.

Localized Tornado was used in One Card Wonder decks in Duel Links. Your starting hand is 1 card but every draw phase you draw two instead of one card. Your deck consisted of stalling cards and Localized Tornado made you never deck out.

[@Ufoencounter]

A creative way to use the gift of greed I think I saw was in Master Duel their was a 30 second event. Obviously, the hand limit is 6 and you must discard cards if you have more, which drains the timer. So, the deck would give the opponent a plethora of cards so during the end phase, they would time out trying to discard them all.

[@eggs8021]

[@godyeeter3606]

Actually, in an RP I played in, Paths of Destiny could have been an easy kill or a quick loss. In the RP, we only had 4000 LP. One player (for RP reasons) ran that card and could sometimes instantly win (or instantly lose, or draw)

Localized Tornado is extremely useful in Karakuri Decks. Karakuri have an insane amount of card draw card, searching and summoning from the deck. once karakuri have set up its surprisingly easy to go +10 or more in card advantage. all karakuri card effects are built around changing card positions, so if karakuri steel shogun or karakuri anatomy (multiple copy's work best) are on the field localized tornado can be used in a combo to not only shuffle your hand and GY into the deck well gaining card advantege but also triggering every Karakuri card effect on the field. karakuri basically plays like a Rube Goldberg device re-imagined as a Yu-Gi-Oh cards. oddly Full Salvo also works in karakuri but only along side Localized Tornado.

[@PortCityBalrog]

It's because when the game was originally designed in the early 90s it was supposed to be a back and forth battle, but the power creep along with the sheer amount of legal cards from sets decades appart can just generate so much power on your first turn that the current game is more about card combos and hand traps. Also the other big difference besides the use of the extra deck for different card types besides fusions is Yu-Gi-Oh decks now are usually tribal where as when Takahashi created the game the characters used powerful monsters that were just good cards but not designed to be played together. I've been playing since Pharaohs Servant and it's been a wild ride so far 😅

Gift of greed is for a greed deck. A continuous trap card that burns who ever draws for 500 damage. Use it in unison with; Sasuke Samurai #3, and Heavy Slump. If the opponent had 0 cards in hand, you could potentially do a grand total of 5,500 points of damage with that combo.

20:54 This gives me a nutty idea for a new HERO monster, one where you get 2 battle phases while it’s face-up on the field: _Evil HERO Supreme King_ (FIRE) Level 8 Pendulum Scales: 0⬅️➡️0 _If your opponent controls a monster, you can Tribute Summon Level 7 or higher monsters with 1 Tribute, and if you do, you can increase or decrease this card’s pendulum scale by up to it’s level. If a monster you control attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage. You can only apply the following effects of “Evil HERO Supreme King” once per turn:_ ⚪️If you special summon a “HERO” monster from your extra deck: You can Add 1 Pendulum Monster to your hand from your deck or face-up from your extra deck. ⚪️If you Special Summon a “Supreme King” monster from your extra deck (Face-up or Facedown): You can add 1 “HERO” monster to your hand from your deck or GY. Fiend/Fusion/Pendulum/Effect 1+ “Evil HERO” monsters + 1+ “Supreme King” monsters _Must Either be Fusion Summoned or Pendulum Summoned. If you Fusion Summoned this card using “Dark Fusion”, or Pendulum Summoned this card using at least 1 “Supreme King” monster in your Pendulum Zones: Add 1 Spell/Trap to your hand from your deck that mentions “Fusion”, “Syncrho”, “Xyz”, or “Pendulum” in it’s name or effects. Cannot be destroyed by battle. During turns that card is face-up on the field, the turn players conducts 2 battle phases per turn, not just 1. During your opponent's Battle Phase, all monsters they control are changed to face-up Attack Position, and each monster they control must attack this card, if able. If this card would leave the field, you can place it into your Pendulum Zones._ ATK/3500 DEF/2100

[@Damy-t4v]

Wow, that's a really good idea!

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

⁠@@Damy-t4v I thought I would be a fun idea to have a card that would basically be a mashup of the GX and ARC-V “Supreme Kings”. Now the question would be: What kinds of decks would run “Evil HERO” and “Supreme King” monsters at the same time to make this worthwhile?

[@Damy-t4v]

@@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire Supreme King Jaden and Z-ARC both call themselves Supreme Kings, so the name is very fitting!

Localises tornado was mostly used in the infernity discard 2 combo with kalin back in duel links before his skill was nerfed. It was ran in a infinite recycle stall deck by running a bunch of stall and life point increase cards then burn through your deck then activate localized tornado to reset and repeat till your opponent decks out

[@orcust0nerd768]

I’m sure I’m not the first to think of this but the one card wonder skill in duel links was able to turn tornado into an amazing stall card

[@dudeguy8686]

An Unfortunate Report + Staunch Defender + Sandaion, the Timelord + some bait of a monster to attack (like Magicians' Souls). 4 card combo that loses to any removal, but hey, at least that's room for one card's worth of protection. Edit: *2 cards of protection, since the Timelord requires your opponent to have a monster to summon itself, so going 2nd woo

Another important point about virus cannon is that it can easly benefit your opponent by letting them send cards with gy effects

[@Daniel-ne5ms]

I have another card: Dimensional Barrier. This card reads: _Declare 1 monster card type (Ritual, Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, or Pendulum); for the rest of this turn, neither player can Special Summon monsters of the declared type, also negate the effects of all monsters of that type while they are on the field. You can only activate 1 "Dimensional Barrier" per turn._ Now if you notice, there is a pretty crucial summoning method it's not uncluding: Link Summon. So if you are playing against say, Sky Striker or Salamangreat then this card is useless and if it's in your side deck then it's just taking space for other cards that could have been way more useful.

[@themantyf1116]

There is a little mistake in the math for Salvo: to burn your opponent with it you would need to discard 40 cards for it, which would mean having 40 cards PLUS the copy of salvo set as a bare minimum (and that's without discussing how you would draw those 40 cards), so you would have to run a non-optimal amount of cards. And of course, there is the fact that for the strategy to work you would need to draw your whole deck and make sure your opponent doesn't have a negate, a way to mitigate the damage or increased life points, when you could just have put Exodia in the deck and won without your opponent having been able to do anything about it.

[@EATSxBABIES]

Gift of Greed can be a game changer. I had 1 specific setup that made it work. Face down I had a Morphing Jar and face down magician of faith after some stall. I had 2 face down gifts of greed. I forced my opponent to draw 4, I threw down hand destruction and they toss 8. I then flip Magician of Faith and they toss 8 more after I reset my hand destruction. I then flip Morphing jar. They dumpstered half o what was left in their deck. If you run a raking deck then it doesn't matter if the cards are in their hand, grave, or removed from play. As long as it's out of their deck faster than they can get to a win condition that's all that matters.

I'm kinda surprised that you didn't talk about mill decks when you were talking about the gift of greed.

[@victornam1847]

Thanks DuelLogs! Just in time for me to copy these with Transaction Rollback!

[@hugh5530]

Funnily enough I used to run full salvo on the playground. We mostly played by the rules but for some reason we thought that, if you emptied your hand, you could draw 5 new cards. We also played without hand limits and games were so slow that it was common to have 10 plus cards in your hand. Back then, I really overestimated the value of life points versus card advantage so I would run pretty bad burn cards like okaze.

I usually play Gift of Greed just for the lol on masterduel by being the Mr beast of YGO. Usually to show newbies or other people that YGO doesn't always full of toxic people who comboing to infinity everytime but to prove there is other people genuinely just have fun and enjoy a good casual laugh or two. You could say the true treasure is the card we give along the way :)

[@ironmike-oi9zr]

I actualy used full salvo in the old gx tag force games. Its a card that was accessable and very good in the "basement" chalenge since you and your oponemt have very few starting life points and you want to win as fast as possible

[@jcplays5831]

I do like full salvo in concept. It’s an all or nothing card that nowadays sets up your graveyard, and ironically it has some synergy with the literal salvo deck springans where you can pitch brothers to get the graveyard special summon. The problems are that it’s a trap card meaning it doesn’t even work as a time card, and the burn is too little

[@shadou1234567]

localized tornado might be actually Madolche support, allowing for effects of madolche cards returning from the graveyard(including spells), 0ing the monster cards in graveyard(i know madolche have better cards to do it, but just roll with it) and if the settup is right they even go back to hand

[@frostedbyte0759]
