Hi everyone...this part ruined an entire duel 4 me while playing 2010 Reverse of Arcadia against WC opponent Witch Doctor of Sparta...not sure if it's a glitch because nothing on the ruling page mentions it.

I just drew the last card in my deck...a Pot of Avarice. Usually this is great news for someone who just decked out... Oddly enough I can only set it. Opponent has The Dark Door, Wave Motion Cannon, Stumbling along with a Witch Doctor of Sparta. Appreciate any help u guys. Thx in advance.

That game is correct, you can't activate "Pot of Avarice" if you have 1 or less card in your Deck. You must have 2 (or more) cards in the Main Deck to shuffle 5 monsters from the Graveyard then draw 2. --iFredCat 16:27, June 18, 2013 (UTC)
And if you want to know why, it's probably in case anyone selects 5 Extra Deck monsters to be shuffled in before drawing 2. It's like how all the other draw cards (Jar of Greed, Legacy of Yata-Garasu, Upstart Goblin, etc) won't activate when you're short on cards. --Gadjiltron (talkcontribs) 02:00, June 19, 2013 (UTC)

Can you activated "reload" when you only have 1 card left in your deck?96.44.92.186 (talk) 20:18, June 19, 2013 (UTC)

I believe you can. When you activate Reload you're bound to have at least 1 other card in your hand, which is added to the Deck before you draw again. Since there are no situations where you could possibly end up drawing your Deck out with Reload's effect, its activation should still be permitted. --Gadjiltron (talkcontribs) 01:19, June 20, 2013 (UTC)
