• Use this card if you know that your opponent is using an Exodia Deck, so you can take one of their Exodia pieces and prevent them from fulfilling the insta-win conditon. Also use this card when you know your opponent has a strong card in his/her hand.
  • This card shows one player taking one Exodia piece from his oponnent, while the other takes "Raigeki".
  • If you have sufficient knowledge of your opponent's deck, you can also use "Dark Designator" to bring the desired strong card to their hand.

• If this and another card are the only 2 cards in your hand, you can use this card and take any card on your opponent's hand, but you opponent can take the only card in your hand.
  • This is very beneficial to the user of "Exchange" too, since your opponent will only see 1 card in your hand.

• This card fits nicely in a Side Deck, just in case your opponent plays a Deck similar to yours.
  • For example, if you play a Lightsworn Deck, you can steal his/her Judgment Dragon or any Lightsworn monster/support and give a "Wulf, Lightsworn Beast", or any other card.
  • If you play Tele-DAD, you can take your opponent's "Dark Armed Dragon", "Emergency Teleport", "Destiny Draw", Etc., and give him/her a card with little use.

• Consider this card in place of "Mind Crush"; although your opponent will not lose hand advantage, it allows you to both see your opponent's hand and take away a potentially dangerous card.

• Use this card in a Spirit monster deck; even if your opponent summons one of your stronger Spirit monsters, it will return to your hand, effectively giving you a two-card advantage (the Spirit monster and the card you took from their hand).

• Before playing this card, set every card in your hand that could be potentially useful to your opponent so that they don't get anything useful. Try to leave them with a card that is specific to your deck (e.g. "Power Capsule").
  • Also, you can give them a card that'll help you, like "An Unfortunate Report" or "The Gift of Greed".
    • If your opponent sets the card you give them, you can use "Bait Doll" to force its activation. In the event confirmation is needed, use a card such as "Mind Haxorz" to look at it.

• This card can help players deal with an otherwise "junky" hand.
