While the card-drawing aspect is similar, this series is unrelated to the [[Treasure Cards]]. == "Goblin of Greed" == "[[Goblin of Greed]]" is a recurrent character in many artworks that depict him being greedy in some way, by either trying to [[Goblin Out of the Frying Pan|take advantage]] over a situation or simply [[Goblin Thief|committing]] a [[Jar Robber|crime]] and [[The Forceful Checkpoint|trying to get away]] with it, but also being [[Fine|caught]] or [[Royal Prison|penalized]] for such actions or, also, [[Single Purchase|being a party]] of a [[Recall|disadvantageous purchase]]. Even when he apparently [[Dark Factory of Mass Production|gets a job]], he still tries to [[Peeking Goblin|rob]] "Pot of Greed". His [[Card_storylines#"Goblin_of_Greed"|storyline]] can be seen in the artworks of cards like "[[Hidden Fangs of Revenge]]", "[[Upstart Goblin]]", "[[Bubble Crash]]", "[[Heavy Slump]]", "[[Good Goblin Housekeeping]]", "[[Goblin Thief]]", "[[The Forceful Checkpoint]]", "[[Jar Robber]]", "[[Goblin Out of the Frying Pan]]", "[[Return (card)|Return]]", "[[Second Coin Toss]]", "[[Single Purchase]]", "[[Recall]]", "[[Goblin Circus]]", "[[Fine]]", "[[Cash Back]]", "[[Redeemable Jar]]", "[[Royal Prison]]", "[[Dark Factory of Mass Production]]", "[[Peeking Goblin]]", "[[Extra Buck]]", "[[Sales Pitch]]", "[[That Grass Looks Greener]]", "[[Waking the Dragon]]" and "[[Tilted Try]]". == "Pot of Greed" and other "Pots" == "[[Pot of Greed]]" is an iconic card, known for its appearances in the anime series but mainly for its straightforward and powerful effect that gives the player a +1 in card advantage with no costs or restrictions, which has had it being [[Forbidden]] starting from the [[March 2006 Lists|March 2006 List]] with no perspective of change. Instead, due to its everlasting status and historical significance, several watered down versions were created as alternatives with strict activation conditions, steep costs or drawbacks in exchange for the card advantage they provide. === Main "Pots" === {| class="wikitable sortable" align="center" |! Spell Card !! Effect !! Cost, condition and/or drawback|-| [[Pot of Acquisitiveness|Acquisitiveness]] || Draw 1 card. || Shuffles 3 face-up banished monsters into the owners' Decks; "[[Once per turn#"Only once per turn"|hard ''once per turn'']]". No virtual card advantage.|-| [[Pot of Arrogance|Arrogance]] || Draw 2 cards. || Can only be activated if the owner had not activated a [[Spell Card]] that turn; the owner cannot activate any Spell Cards for the rest of the turn.|-| [[Pot of Avarice|Avarice]] || Draw 2 cards. || Shuffles 5 monsters from its owner's Graveyard into the Deck.|-| [[Pot of Benevolence|Benevolence]] || Shuffles 2 cards from any Graveyard into the owners' Decks. || -1 in card economy; banishes itself at resolution; "hard ''once per turn''".|-| [[Pot of Generosity|Generosity]] || Shuffles 2 cards from its owner's hand into the Deck. || -3 in card economy.|-| [[Pot of Riches|Riches]] || Draw 2 cards. || Shuffles 3 Pendulum Monsters into the Deck. Blocks Special Summons other than Pendulum Summon; "hard ''once per turn''".|-|} === Combination "Pots" === It also inspired the creation of retrains/homages in the form of "Pot" Normal Spell Cards that also give the player some sort of card advantage. In terms of concept and artwork, such cards were designed as amalgamations of pre-existing "Pots", and are reminiscent of the mechanic/concept of the original "Pot of Greed" and/or the other component "Pot". Their mere existence cements the Forbidden status of "Pot of Greed", since these cards, despite all restrictions and drawbacks imprinted on them, are still notable for their powerful effects and potential of being competitively relevant. Each one of them has either a clause that prevents multiple copies from being activated per turn, or an effect designed in such way that they can't be used in every single Deck, like "Pot of Greed" could, or even in the same Deck, as the effects of "[[Pot of Desires]]" and "[[Pot of Prosperity]]" conflict with each other; "[[Pot of Extravagance]]" can't be used in strategies that make heavy use of the Extra Deck, while "[[Pot of Duality]]" is traditionally used only in Decks that don't rely on Special Summoning. {| class="wikitable sortable" align="center" |! Spell Card !! Components !! Effect || Cost, condition and/or drawback|-| [[Pot of Desires|Desires]] || Avarice + Greed || Draw 2 cards. || Banishes 10 cards from the top of the Main Deck, face-down.|-| [[Pot of Dichotomy|Dichotomy]] || Avarice + Benevolence || Draw 2 cards. || Shuffles 3 monsters with different Types from the Graveyard into the Deck; must be the first action of the Main Phase 1 and blocks Battle Phase.|-| [[Pot of Prosperity|Prosperity]] || Generosity + Riches || [[Excavate]] 3 or 6 cards to add one of them to the hand. || Banishes 3 or 6 Extra Deck cards, face-down; halves all damage the opponent takes for the rest of the turn and blocks any other drawing effects.|-| [[Pot of Duality|Duality]] || Generosity + Greed || Excavate 3 cards to add one of them to the hand. || Blocks Special Summons in the same turn it is activated.|-| [[Pot of Extravagance|Extravagance]] || Greed + Riches || Draw 1 or 2 cards. || Randomly banishes 3 or 6 face-down Extra Deck cards, face-down; must be the first action of the Main Phase 1 and blocks any other drawing effects.|-|} {{Archseries navbox}}{{Archseries navbox (anime)}}{{Archseries navbox (manga)}}{{Archseries navbox (D Team)}}{{Archetype Archseries navbox(Duel Links)}}[[Category:TCG and OCG series]]
