Top 10 Best Hand Traps of All Time in YuGiOh
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 08. 2024
- A hand trap is a term for cards which can be activated in your hand during your opponents or your own turn, mainly during your opponents turn though, with the vast majority of hand traps actually being monster cards and not traps.
(I will ignore my internal ban list for this list)

lol so true
XD nibiru good
@@Emilstekcor yeah maybe
“But this one is in Ultimate rare Rariety Making it highly collectible!”
And its Monday :(
Personally, I think Maxx C should be legal at 40 copies per deck.
Solemn judgement on your comment
How can you something so controversial yet so brave?

Note: Mystic Mine is banned in OCG
I think you might have a bias
Thing is how would you win though?
Why is the Maxx C segment so short? It took you 30 minutes to explain what it does before.
Thats why
@@AmiriHipHop no, he should've just put the entire 30 minute video at the end of this video.
@@AmiriHipHop It was a joke, obviously.
@@AmiriHipHop And I apologize for you being such a crappy person.
Lmao
Hand traps aren't about "resolving their effects", but about not letting your opponent's cards resolve theirs.
Ghost Mourner and Ogre have entered chat: FAX
(in case you didnt know, or someone reading doesnt know, Mourner negates special summoned monsters effect, Ogre destroys a card upon activating effects. So you let a special summoned monster activate, then Ogre chain 2 and Mourner chain 3. Mourner also deals effect DMG equal to the attack of the monster affected by this ability when the monster negated leaves the field, which is why you chain Ogre before so Mourner will negate, and Ogre will destroy which will inflict effect dmg. Plenty of decks fall to this. You can also set a Ring of Destruction to do double effect DMG to your enemy. Same chains as the Ogre-Mourner.)

@@catisreckless4647 I meant metaltron sorry
Appropriate would be good if it didn't miss timing and didn't have to be activated before it can use its effect - drawing 2 cards every time your opponent draws a card. Would be hilarious to see an OCG game where someone uses Maxx "C" only get countered by Appropriate. "You may draw a card every time I Special Summon, but I draw 2 cards every time you draw a card!"
I think I have replied this every time this suggestion has been brought up, recently. :x
Doppelwarrior easy number 1
Geartown at least top 5
Just a note, I ignore the "Internal Ban List" for "generic" topics for 2 reasons.
1: I do them so rarely. Most of my top 10 topics are niche or very specific, in which case I want them to have fresh cards to talk about. And since I do genic topics so rarely, I actually try pretty hard to make them as accurate as possible. That's why they're usually much longer than normal too.
2: They are usually the first videos people will see of my channel, so they wont be sick of the cards yet.
The only card from this list on my internal ban list is Nibiru anyway. I'm sure that card wont show up in a video again, until maybe I do a video on the best Rock types.
Shouldn't that comment be pinned?
@@thatman666 eh, it doesnt really matter
I'm willing to bet a million dollars that Nibiru will be #1 in the Best Rock-types list.

Yep
This is how capitalism works
I know right? Why do they charge an arm & a leg for cards like red-eyes dark dragoon, triples tactics talent, forbidden droplet, lightning storm etc? Its not worth charging so much just sell good cards to people.
*Laughs/Cry in Magic the Gathering*
I’ve seen Maxx C explained so well before. I was initially like why’re you going on a tangent about powerful effects and then when you tied it all together to say that Maxx C let’s you draw and essentially skip your opponents turn I was like damnnnnn
Yeah its effect isn't apparent at first until you put a lot of meta context behind it.
@@TheDuelLogs Alternately, against some decks, you play Maxx C, don't have Nibiru, and then immediately draw 36 cards.
Max C for the opponent is just a gamble on whether you have nibiru or not.
Surprised that is still legal in mater duel and the ocg
Effect Veiler is used for being a Light, Spellcaster, lvl1, tuner plus budget/extra copies of Infinite Impermanence. I don't think it'll ever stop seeing play as long as an aspect of it is still relevant even as a useful brick.

How dare you not include the one true handtrap, Kuriboh. Yugi would be so disappointed in you 😥
Because kuriboh sucks?
@@lamrethal695 How dare you
Kuriboh is love. Kuriboh is life.
@@lamrethal695 kuriboh does not suck it’s fking life bro
Good ol kuriboh
I love how D&L is basically an indicator species of how broken the meta is.
totatlly forgot that nibiru existed for a moment there, lol. I was thinking "what the hell is a stronger handtrap than ash (besides maxx "c" of course)?"
Handtraps, possibly the most divisive thing in YuGiOh.
It is also pretty old when you remember Kuriboh counts.
Best boy. And best hand trap, if you mention Kuriboh Ash Blossom doesn't exist anymore. I don't make the rules, I just fabricate them.
@@ecwfaithful
Well, the cutie ball can negate literally ALL battle damage from an attack.
Kuriboh will probably have his own hand trap card and be a counter trap card cause "Fuck you. I'm rich".
@@justice8718
Do you mean a Counter Trap that activates from the hand in the Kuriboh archetype?
Also, Kuriboh was NOT Kaiba's card.
@@Bezaliel13 Oh. I mistaken the two. Although, Kaiba would be a perfect as a handtrap card just for the memes.
It's crazy how in order to play the game now you often need to have about a quarter of your deck be hand traps.
Name checks out
Better than when you had to fill half of your deck with broken draw cards, hand destroying cards, chaos monsters and 1800 atk monsters to even have a chance.
Yep. Which is why im still playing casually, until the current meta becomes slower paced... One day... xD
tbh I wish they gave the overall game a few more restrictions like a limit of Special Summons per turn.
@@neroneroren6788 They did that for my Pendulums... My Odd-Eyes...! 😭
Huh. So that’s why Dragunities were/are considered rogue with their new support. Not only do they have a monster-negate option that they can bring out in 5 summons or less (Areadbhair), but their “equip from deck/GY” effects aren’t covered by the ghost girls or Droll. Sure they’re still vulnerable to the other spots on this list, but being able to deal with some of the biggest hand traps is a pretty good selling point.
Currently trying to update my dragunity with more staples and links for this very reason, they've always been weird and good
Holy fuck dragunities are back
They were one of my favorite decks in duel links. Sure, they're overshadowed by other generic synchro support but they're still great in they're own right
Just counter Maxx "C" with Droll & Lock Bird + Trickstar Reincarnation - banish half their deck with no cards in hand.
Probably already aware of all the faults with that, but just to bring up a couple:
Trickstar Reincarnation is a Trap card, so it has to be Set before it can be activated - and normally has to be set for a turn, unless you use a card like Temple of Kings, Boogie Trap or Trap Trick. Also being a Trap card means it is vulnerable to Red Reboot - even if that card is limited and often only side-decked.
Just like it is easier to counter Maxx "C" with a negation card like Called By The Grave, Droll & Lock Bird too can easily be countered by negation.
Also if your opponent gains advantage off of banishing cards - like Dinosaurs, Gren Maju or Thunder Dragons - banishing half their deck may be handing them an easy OTK, or an other such highly advantageous game state.
And lastly, that is a two card card counter to one card - and as such is inherently harder to have ready and available to perform than the simple one-card manoeuvre that Maxx "C" performs.
@@BloodfelX To counter that we could then just play Makyura, can't we?
I'm still a fan of him...
@@Gebirges I looked up Makyura - I thought he got errata'd to only activate on battle destruction, but I'm glad I was mistaken; activating only 1 Trap card from the hand on a hard once per turn is plenty enough to balance him.
Go for it I say. I may use him in some of my more Trap-dependent decks now that I've educated myself on what his errata was.
@@BloodfelX glad I helped to bring attention back on him :D
@@BloodfelX just set it an activate on opponent's standby phase
When I first started Yu-Gi-Oh I had a max cc but I never knew how good it was
Well, it wasn't very good when it first came out. Because special summoning even one time back then was a reason for celebration.
It wasn’t as powerful back then but when the game brought out new summoning mechanics and became a much faster game that’s when maxx c really became broken
Maxx C was already good at release, it was during Xyz era and it was fairly fast
One time in high school i made fun of my friend for buying 6 copies of ash blossom and said "you won't even be using three"
Fast forward, I heard he sold one for 30$ .... I think I can hear him laughing now.
They're not cheap cards. Hell, even a common one from the Soulburner Structure Deck somewhat rivals decent booster Ultra Rares in value. It's ridiculous.
Wow, never really thought of Droll as being a barometer for the health of the current game
Lancia: "You merely adopted the Side Deck. I was born in it, molded by it"
Can't forget the original handtrap, Kuriboh! Keeping it real since 2002!
I was just thinking that. Could have had a honorable mention of Kuriboh, Scrap Iron Scarecrow, and battle fader.
Me : "What could possibly beat Nibiru for the top spot ? ... Wait no don't tell me that's M..."
"And at number one, Maxx C" *then proceeds to explain entire Yu-Gi-Oh to justify Maxx C's status*
people need to know
I feel like I learn more about modern Yu-Gi-Oh with every top 10 list. Most of this stuff would've blown my mind the last time I touched the game.
Top 10 cards that can increase ATK indefinitely
This could include permanent attack boosts that are repeatable (e.g. Hi-speedroid Chanbara) or one-off attack boosts that technically have no limit (e.g. Winged Dragon of Ra, since you can increase your life points throughout the duel with various cards and effects).
You could either rank them by how good they are competitively, or how high their ATK could conceivably go. Think that would be interesting.
obelisk and venominaga go ∞ /s
dragoon gg.
Gateway of the Six wins by a landslide. Can give literally infinite attack while also providing infinite Monster Reborns and infinite searches.
Top 10 non-monster hand traps? You mention them a lot in this video, and I can't think of too many off the top of my head - might be some cool obscure cards that fit that, rather than the usual top meta cards :)
Best video of “best crossout designator targets” yet 😂😂😂
We all know Kuriboh is the best hand trap smh my head

Wait "smh my head"...???
Little Boy Blue SMH my head
RIP in peace
LMAO my ass off
The list goes on.
@@Letso-S-Relaeng lol out loud
But does it help you time travel to meet yugi?
Well, winged kuriboh, aka best kuriboh does
I was just looking for this type of video yesterday 😅 nice videos man, keep up the good work
I think a cool concept for a series is a series of top 10’s where Duellogs picks 10 cards at complete random, then gives his thoughts, opinions, and personal experiences with the card.
Thank you, new/returning player thanks to Master Duel and was unsure why the Red Reboot I pulled was such a high rarity, it sounds very good for an OTK
I know you've probably considered it/heard about it from others, but maybe you could explain the limited cards? I personally love the explaining the banlist videos, and would love to see an extension upon that.
Droll and Trickstar combo is always so smug to pull. It’s just a strict middle finger when pulled on the opponent’s first turn.
Add Maxx "C" to your banlist mate.
no
Yes
Nope
Actually yes he mentioned it many times in his top tens and he explained it why it was banned on his explaining the banlist video
You can't not talk about it in a list like this; Nibiru is also on that list
I watch it as 10 things you should craft in master duel
Then Master Duel was like: yeah so maxx C is at 3
Hey man I really like your videos! I get to learn a lot about other cards and how their mechanics/strategies work. I would love to see what the best counter hand traps cards there are since everyone uses hand traps in the meta game now. Thanks!
Alternative title: top 10 cards that are a necessary evil
Idk what’s the common decision about hand traps, but I feel like they’re the perfect example of cards that need to exist because of power creep, but are unfun to deal with as their existence can shut down pretty much any non-meta deck (potentially)
Except Maxx C.
Duellogs your video about Gemini's inspired me to make a custom Robin hood archetype to see how I can make Gemini monsters with handtrap effects. I thank you for the idea
Now I wanna see him review it
You are great at explaining things. Great work
Since the Cyber Strike structure deck has been released days, how about a Top 10 Cyber Dragon cards?
Infinite Impermanence is also extremely good against Pendulums, as if you go first and set it in one of the side columns, you can activate it to both negate the effect of a pendulum monster placed in the zone, and prevent your opponent from being able to even use their scales for the turn.
(Shakes fist at removal of Pendulum Zones being their own dedicated zones on the playing field)
Hm… They can use the Scales…
@@anyelord1 Yeah, that only really applies to monsters who like to change their own Pendulum Scale. Though funnily enough since an early trend with Pendulum Monsters was to make your Pendulum Scale worse, Infinite Impermanence (i.e. being negated) could actually be a benefit...?
(Looking at you, Timegazer Magician and Stargazer Magician.)
Learning so much from these videos trying to get back in the game. First time I tried Maxx c, opponent negated it with forbidden droplet I think, they removed it from my graveyard... Dang...
I once came up with a card that searched out the ghost sisters. Here it is:
Beck and Call
Quick-Play Spell
Can be activated from your hand during your opponent's turn if you control no cards. Discard 1 card: Add 1 Level 3 Tuner monster with 0 ATK and 1800 DEF from your Deck to your hand. You can only activate 1 "Beck and Call" once per turn.
Sounds cool tbh
Very good. Just right. Add a banish sister and possibly a trap and the set is complete.
If you ask me, Maxx C should work like Niburu, but you only gain +1 card per two special summons and you cannot activate the drawn cards the turn you activated that card.
So, if the condition has been fullfilled you draw a minimum of 2 cards.
*laughs in OCG*
OCG has crossout, if TCG ever gotten one, they might also can unban maxx c
@@CrnaStrela crossout is litteraly released now
@@CrnaStrela we also have Crossout designatorb
PSY-Framelord Lambda allows you to activate Gamma even if you have monsters on the field
In a game featuring dragons, space aliens, and literal gods, the most powerful card of all is literally just a bunch of cockroaches. Not a world-ending plague of cockroaches, just about enough to lose you your deposit on your apartment.
and a big rock is also insanely good
This is why I love Yugioh - just the sheer randomness of it.
And an undead birb that just pecks you is never coming out.
Love the content ! Keep it up TDL
Fun fact, I learned yesterday that Nibiru can't tribute monsters that are immune to activated effects/ monster effects/effects in general
The fact that everytime he talks about Maxx "C" he needs to call 15 different cards just to explain it effect, always makes me laugh
Because casual players dont understand that pass turn equals a concession in modern yugioh. And the Maxx C challenge doesn't exist anymore with Dark Ruler No More, TTT and droplet in the game. 2014 in Dragon ruler format, you could probably play through Maxx C without autolosing. 2021 a single nibiru or dark ruler draw is gg
YGO noob here, and I am glad I watched this
Gonna add some Droll and Lock to my Master Duel deck to stop everyone from making me take the Maxx C Challenge.
Infinite Impermanence. This is an "actual" trap card.
Had a good laugh on how you said that.
Top 10 Red Dragon Archfiend cards. Or top 10 Resonator cards. Would love to see a video on either.
That was really informative!!!!
We didn't ask for a 6 minute Tarantino dialogue explanation of the power of Maxx C, we didn't deserve it, but holy crap did we NEED it!
P.S. I have seen enough of your videos to know you have retired talking about certain cards like Nibiru. Trust me when I say it was merited this once for this particular topic.
I love having the droll+reincarnation combo in the side for my zombie/kaiju build. Catches opp off guard quite a bit
The part where you said how nowadays lancea is only artifact now to see play and how scythe doesn't.. i wish that was still true lol
I desperately needed this video.
Thanks, great info for a old player.
I was NOT ready for that Droll & Lockbird conversation.
Do you guys remember that point of time for about a format where you could Effect Veiler a card like Rescue Rabbit AFTER it left the field?
I do, and it was very strong.
Kind of specific but one of best hand traps is Harpie's Feather Storm. It's like an infinite impermanence on steriods if you control a harpie.
Indeed
Top 2 cards that have unusual attack values like having cards that have multiples of ten that aren’t 50
I'm glad misc at least got an honorable mention by bring part of the video dino gang rise up
I always make sure to keep a certain "Belle" in my deck for insurance. Thank you. Flames of Destruction!! ☺️
I like how Adusted Gold has Nibiru in the background where hero deck got screwed by Nibiru lol, totally end with a rock deck.
Hand traps are a band-aid solution, they don’t solve the actual problem with the game
There is no problem though
@@shakeweller That is why people complain about special summoning, unbreakable boards, 100 negates and an entire type of cards being unplayable. Hand traps aren't even the band-aid, they are part of the problem.
Here in the OCG, we don't really mind if Maxx "C" resolves, because we're not that crazy on combos like in the TCG.
Because you guys have Max “C” @ 3 in the OCG literally for this exact reason.
Bruh because in OCG every decks are forced to play through maxx c. If you can't, you lose
Why don't you stay with the tcg americano
@@Big1nz because I'm not American....
Glad to see D.D crow on the list
Top 10 worst field spells, excluding the original releases which buffed by 200 or buffed by 500 while reducing defense by 400
Now this is what I waited for
I'm new to yugioh master duel so thanks for the info and red reboot is good against eldlich right?
I have a Request Can You do a coverup on Yusei Fudo Deck from the past and present cards including the new supports and monster cards pls X3
I only ever pulled off an Effect Viler like 2 times when it mattered. I did pull of DD Crow and Ally of Justice against some Abyss decks and lightswarms. My Favorite Hand Trap was Maxx "C" That one won me so many games. One funny story. I was playing a dark Synchro deck when Psyframelord Omega was unlimited and decked out my opponent on a Max "C' drop....they lost the max C challenge vs me!
I also pulled off a complex "manticore of darkness" summoning loop in a Zoodiac Mirror Match in 2017. The look on my YCS opponent was priceless. He' never saw it coming.
Once, when playing SuperHeavy Samurai’s in Master Duel, a guy used Ash Blossom, but it resulted in me doing more searching and special summoning. It was also the time I Synchro Climbed and had 4 unique Synchro Monsters (who were all SuperHeavy Samurai’s) and he had 400 Life Points remaining after my turn ended. Since I had Stealth Ninja, he couldn’t do anything, which, lost him the duel. (It was also the time when SoulPiercer was Limited to 2 on Master Duel’s Banlist, so I added SoulHorns, which is a better card than Sekka’s Light, which I had in the deck before SoulHorns, and it hindered my deck. I shouldn’t had won the duel I activated Sekka’s Light)
Kinda funny how certain archetypes can be separated by years, Spellbooks is actually one of the first that was separated by at least ten to eleven years Spellbook of Organization first came out I think in Spell Rulers, Metal Raiders, or Pharaoh's Servant. Now I use it in the Spellbook archetype in Duel Links and it actually works.
I still like how OP the original chaos emperor dragon was that the card completely had to add in a little fine print that you cannot activate any effect if you use his effect
For PotS, You could still use Disturbance Strategy in their Draw Phase, because they can draw cards at that time.
Okay imagine this draw card;
Uncontrollabe Greed
Normal Spell Card
“Draw 1 Card, then your opponent gains 8000 Life Points, also during the end of the next turn you take damage equal to the total damage dealt to either player after this cards activation.
Got some pretty strong Alex Jones vibes when you started talking about Victory Dragon in order to "explain" Maxx "C"
Wow, top 1 i knew, since i watch the 30 minutes masterclass !
I duelled a guy in master duel who played a darklord engine. I activated max C and it was the first turn. Turns out it was also a danger engine. He managed to loop special summons. I drew all cards in my deck and lost. He created a deck that's entire strategy revolves around if your opponent activates max c. I never thought you could hate a card that much.
Top continuos backrow thats has an activation effect and then a continuos effect, like the fire formation cards
Interesting
Aside fire formation, there are Dark Magical Circle, Sea Stealth Attack, Powerful Rebirth and most of trap monsters
i don't know if there is already a video of it, but how about top 10 specific card in it's archetype which has the best graveyard effect
Here's a video suggestion: The Ultimate Yu-Gi-Oh Iceberg explained. Would love to see your thoughts and explanation of it.
Hand traps are so strong in masterduel with the one and done style. Crossout designator at 3 with crucial targets in my own has saved my Synchron Combo's. And all are still live if drawn except Psy-frame who is a garnet that can be banished for Chaos Ruler.
That's how I play. 3 Designators, 1 copy of the staples I want to stop. I just commented about it, but I genuinely believe these staples need to be limited.
funny thing is that in master duel hero decks can totally play around nibiru, just summon a good board without using all ur resources or the main stuff you want to summon then bluff the end phase, after nibiru you can return to main phase and finish your plays
As a new player who hates 2 turn games, I would love to see maxx c unbanned and a control-oriented meta... (sorry for the English, not my first language)
Hand traps are a necessary evil like kaijus, but the pest part about them is that you interact with the other player in such a way that they have to play around them already, like with Nibiru or Maxx C, just expecting the worst and hoping for the best in some cases.
top 10 cards with specific rulings / unique effects. so like mischief of the time goddess
Each entry in this video got me like 😮😮😮 what could possibly be better than that card. And then BOOM
"people don't play maxx 'C' because they are afraid of maxx 'C'" can also be read as "I used the maxx 'C' to destroy the maxx 'C'"
Some of the most fun I've had in duels is when my opponent activated Maxx C only for me to kill them that turn, because they couldn't stop me from summoning my game ender cards.
red reboot was only limited to promote the sale of Lightening Storm. Konami have a habit of limiting or banning card just before they release a set with a similar card in it like pankratops and Alpha, the Master of Beasts was in the upcoming set
Hey can you make a video Top 10 best spin-off cards
Red Reboot has won me 90% of the duels it has appeared on my hand, it'll be my #1 every time.
