- Despite its Forbidden status, "Pot of Greed" has continued to receive homage through cards such as "Shard of Greed" and "Moray of Greed", as well as through six direct counterparts, which imitate its effect in more balanced manners, or with more contextual purposes:
- Chaos Greed
- Jar of Greed
- Pot of Avarice
- Pot of Desires
- Pot of Dichotomy
- Pot of Duality
- Red Dragon Vase
- In this, it is similar to the infamous Magic: The Gathering card "Black Lotus", a card retroactively banned for its lack of balance, but repeatedly referenced since within later, more measured counterparts.
- In addition, many cards with similar effects (and corresponding cost) have been released, such as "Allure of Darkness", "Solar Recharge", "Trade-In", "Rare Value", "Common Charity", "Destiny Draw", "Reckless Greed", and "Cards of Consonance".
- This card's fame goes so far that it is also one of the four Forbidden cards that has its effect featured in "Fuh-Rin-Ka-Zan" and "Pot of The Forbidden".
- Due to the extreme simplicity of this card and its constant usage in the anime, real-life players of the game jokingly ask what "Pot of Greed's" effect is, which has become one of the most popular memes of the Yu-Gi-Oh! fanbase.
- According to the Master Guide , someone can put their hand inside the "Pot of Greed" and find something that will delight them, but the pot will explode once they take their hand out.
- Because of this, the "Pot of Greed" can be used to potentially assassinate someone, as shown in the artwork of "The Gift of Greed".
- Both of the above would explain why "Pot of Greed" is shown to be illegal in the artwork of "Mistaken Arrest".
- Despite this card's malicious nature, it can also be used as an improvised vacuum cleaner, as shown in the artwork of "Counter Cleaner".
- This card has the opposite effect of "The Gift of Greed".
- This card appears as a possible question in the Action Field "Quiz Quest". The question asks for the number of teeth in the card's artwork:
- The answer is 20.
- This card has the second shortest effect text of any card (after Jar of Greed).
