Card Tips:Pot of Avarice
Revision as of 23:03, 16 January 2012 by 76.30.94.111 (talk)
- Use to recycle searchers like "Super-Nimble Mega Hamster" and "T.G. monsters", single-use support cards like "Effect Veiler", Flip Effect Monsters, and boss monsters like "Dark Armed Dragon".
- "Pot of Avarice" works well with "Magical Merchant", who can fill the Graveyard with monsters.
- This card is very handy in a Lightsworn Deck. You are going to wind up with many monsters in your Graveyard whether you want to or not; this card helps forestall decking out and gets some extra cards in your hand in the process. However, by returning the Lightsworns, you could make it harder to Summon their ace monster, "Judgment Dragon". (This isn't a problem if JD itself was milled).
- Use this card in Fabled/Dark World since your Graveyard will fill quickly.
- This card can be useful in a Koa'ki Meiru Deck given how quickly the Graveyard fills up.
- You can use this card in a Laval Deck to return "Soaring Eagle", "Laval Coatl", and other cards that work better in the hand.
- Use in a Volcanic Deck to recycle your "Volcanic Shell" and "Volcanic Scattershot" and refill your hand.
- Use after activating "Future Fusion" for a Fusion Monster with a large number of Fusion Material Monsters (e.g. Five-Headed Dragon, Chimeratech Overdragon, Worm Zero).
- Use this card in a "Shooting Star Dragon" Deck. By returning Tuners from the Graveyard to the Deck, you increase the chance of getting Tuners for the Dragon's multi-attack effect.
- Use with cards that can search copies of themselves out like "Reborn Tengu" or "Giant Germ". If you have one on the field and two in the Graveyard, you can add the two back to your Deck to use their effects once again.
- This card is a godsend for LV Monsters, as they can't "Level Up" from the Graveyard.
- If you don't want to thicken your deck, you can return Synchro, Fusion and/or Xyz Monsters to your Extra Deck.
- If you have enough Synchro, Fusion and/or Xyz Monsters in the graveyard, this card can also act like a "Pot of Greed", with the bonus of returning dead cards to the Extra Deck.
- This card, added along with "Des Feral Imp" and "The Transmigration Prophecy", would provide a 3-card combination to keep you from decking out.
- If you Special Summoned "Stardust Dragon" with the effect of "Starlight Road", you can't revive it after it's been sent to the Graveyard since it was not Synchro Summoned first, but you can use "Pot of Avarice" to return it (along with 4 other monsters) to the Extra Deck, draw 2 cards, then Synchro Summon it later.
- You can use this card in an "Exodia Necross" Deck. Save this card in your hand with other cards that defend you, like Destiny Hero - Defender, Marshmallon, and Swords of Revealing Light. Thin out your Deck until you send the Exodia pieces to the Graveyard and have nothing in your Deck except "Upstart Goblin", etc., then Summon "Exodia Necross". Use this card to bring the Exodia pieces back to your Deck and defend yourself. You will probably have two pieces in your hand, and the last three will be in your Deck to draw.
- Use this card in an Elemental Hero Fusion Deck to recycle "Elemental Hero Stratos" and "Elemental Hero Necroshade". You can also use it after targeting "Elemental Hero Divine Neos" with "Future Fusion".
- Return DARK monsters to align the Graveyard for "Dark Armed Dragon".
Traditional Format
- Substitoad and any monster on the field will allow you to fill the Graveyard with Frogs by constantly Tributing them, meeting this card's cost.
