Drawing 2 can be strong if you pull it off on here, it doesn’t make you go minus inherently, the only minus is whatever you might put in for summoning it, so a draw 2 makes up for that. Draw 2 cards is so good that it’s been put onto many cards for years now, but nothing can ever capture the magic of Pot of Greed until we get a generic Draw 3 with no downside. I kinda wanted to review Pot of Greed myself, but haven’t since it won’t likely make for a fun review. For its FLIP effect, it’s a hard once per turn because I mean… it’s the effects of some of the most powerful cards in the game, and I’ll go over them once each. Rock and EARTH always go well together, and it can be common on these FLIP monsters. Low ATK on a Level 9, but a very good DEF stat always. Pot of the Forbidden is a Level 9 EARTH Rock FLIP monster with 2000 ATK and 3000 DEF. Like banned cards, well here we can technically review 3 at once (since Raigeki is legal now, it wasn’t in the OCG when this was printed). Prediction Princess may be a spot for something cheeky like this as well with its flip-based strategy and this would suffice for a Ritual Summon cost. The “Jar Out” strategy can work with this as long as you can get it to the field (Reasoning, Monster Gate, Monster Reborn, etc.). There are some cheesy combos with monsters that can make this more consistent. Clearing the board of monsters for an attack would be great, even if this monster only has 2000ATK (you’d use this effect first, then swarm the field if all went through). Against Altergeist or a backrow strategy deck like Sky Strikers, using the Giant Trunade effect would work. In a top-deck war, shuffling a card back would be best. Depending on the situation, any may be applicable, however “Draw 2 cards” will always be on the table. If you somehow get it to the field and get that flip effect, you have an astonishing 4 choices. Level 9 flip monster isn’t something that screams splashable or playable. Pot of the Forbidden is our Throwback Thursday choice this week. Rating: I give this a 4.5/5 in Rocks and a 2/5 elsewhere for a 3.25/5 averageĪrt: 4/5 The Pot is looking rather menacing, no? I wouldn’t want to mess with that mouth, and the evil eye is intimidating too. This certainly is a more Fun card (could be an interesting Tech piece I suppose) but I still love it in Rocks. It’s a Flip card that while not combo dependent, is better in combination with more cards. If you pull any effect off here, and can combo other effects from this card with other cards, say in the same turn, this makes this thing a lot more powerful. The mystery here is this card (as most are) is only going to help you as long as you keep it on the Field. The Flip is fitting there, the variety of the effects (while can be easier to pull off with other cards, hence the cited examples) but you still get a 2000/3000 body here, which is useful in itself. You can Forceful Sentry your opponent, looking at their Hand and returning 1 card to the Deck (and shuffle) You can Raigeki your opponent destroying all their Monsters You can Giant Trunade the Field returning all Magic and Traps on to the player’s Hands You get Pot of Greed which lets you Draw 2 cards When Flipped, Pot of the Forbidden gives you the option of choosing one of four attached effects. Never reviewed, and I’ve wanted to do this for a while (I honestly don’t know why) but this is a Level 9, Earth/Rock, Flip Monster with 2000 attack and 3000 defense. This week has all been Throwbacks, but for Throwback Thursday, I chose Pot of the Forbidden.
