I love the idea of the traptrix being like the glow bulb of the angler fish implying they aren’t really alive but simply puppets that mimik the movements of people to lure their prey in, I’d love to see some kind of support with the actual spider deck synergy someday, awesome vid!
Fun fact: my university in the US actually has one of the few rafflesia plants in the country. It doesn't bloom often(I forget how frequently), but it did 3 years ago and they let everyone come through the greenhouse and smell it. Truthfully, it didn't smell that bad to me, apparently some people actually don't smell the rotting meat smell!
They honestly give me Yandere vibes of the you’re gonna get R***d variety, I don’t know why though? They are more along the lines of literally eating you for whatever meal of the day it is.
I didn't expect to use these going into Master Duel. I laughed at the first one I got, then I saw how the archetype worked. Now I'm sorta a Traptrix main.
This will always be one of my favorite archtypes to use. I have way more fun messing with my opponents and slowly widdling them down than just causing a 2 hour long combo or just summoning a strong monster. If i ever get the chance to make a deck, it will end up being my most used one
It could also be that they're just not expressive. In official concept designs, you can see Atypus (one of the new monsters, based on the... well... Atypus [Purse Spider]) practicing how to smile. I also think they're sentient because they drape themselves in clothing :/ Like in one of the sketches, Holeutea finds some cloth and drapes herself in it, but due to her hair it ends up getting torn to tatters. Also because (again in official design sketches), the artist notes that Cularia (another new card) cries when she feels lonely, which attracts others.
My theory is that the girls and predators are one and the same. I think it’s like a stand relationship, where they are different things but the same overall entity
@@javis999 also possibly as a kind of "virtual self" like what people do in VR. They seem to be sentient monsters that at the very least have a relationship with each other over the trapping thing.
I've tended to think of them as being shapeshifters whose true forms are the more monstrous arachnid/ insectoid/ plant forms, and the humanoid forms are something they developed as a hunting aid
I've been running this deck for a year now since Lair of Darkness got it's consistency destroyed due to Mystic Mine getting Metaverse limited. It's a really fun deck and I've always liked monsters that have some kind of horror aesthetic (Archfiends, Lair of Darkness, Zombie World ect.). Traptrix monsters actually being killer plants, insects and arachnids in disguise is a fun concept for me and it evokes the fear of being eaten. Which is one of the primal fears we have as a species. It's also probably the most slept on rogue deck of the past year. It's downright scary to fight. Most control decks don't let you play at all. Traptrix gives the illusion of interactivity but in practice the more your opponent tries to struggle against it, the faster it kills them. Which also fits with the deck's theme and aesthetic. I plan on running this deck as long as possible.
@@gamedominatorxennongdm7956 I learned that lesson too. Decks with a ton of recursion like scrap, tearlaments, marincess(to an extend), etc..., Are really tuff to beat. Also, back row hate like lightning storm is a common Sidedeck choice, tho not as popular anymore, so Lord of the heavenly prison is kind of mandatory in your hand at then end of turn 1. That being said, it can still beat almost any other deck if piloted well and with some card luck and is fairly budget on top of just being insanely fun to play with. I'm sure it's annoying to play against but it's just to much fun to play and will always be my favorite.
@@simonrief1013 Yeah I'd say it's a good beginner deck. It has a pretty straightforward gameplan that can get more complex as you learn and build up the deck. I wouldn't agree that it's tier 1 like a lot of people say it is right now but after two weeks of playing it so far I feel comfortable saying that it got boosted to a solid tier 2 at the moment. It has a generally good MU against the tier 1 decks of the current format which is causing some people to think it's better than it is but you can definitely win with the deck and the learning curve at entry is comparatively simple to grasp.
This is why I'm joining the navy, if I make it far and have a ship name after me, they'll turn that into an anime girl and you know what's next on the list.
The traptrix archetype has another origin: All of them are cute little girls right? This is because the FBI created anime lolis, so they can arrest people and wreck their houses.
Also.. I LOVE getting my name read by Sam at the end of his videos lol. Gives me the warm n fuzzies knowing I can support a great channel (a great guy?) Like TGS
Where I used to live back in Minnesota, my house has a huge bug problem (mostly flies and mosquitoes), so my mom grew carnivorous plants to solve the problem. The scary part, these plants actually did the job... a bit too well.
I like to see some angler fish, snapping turtle, and frog (like Bael and Dagon from DMC) based traptrix. Also I feel like the designs mostly attract "Predators".
I use Traptrix not because of them being waifus, but as someone who loves insects and plants..and nature in general. That and I love the Trap Hole cards and this archtype single handedly brought them back from limbo.
I find it very interesting that the two Xyz monsters in this series are based on things that act as parasites on other plants. Which fits well with the Xyz mechanic; you use the other monsters to make those two more powerful.
I love playing this deck in Yu-Gi-Oh Master dual because I get to continuously trip up my opponent so they can’t get good footing and not a lot of people play trap cards anymore so they never expect it
I personally love the Traptrix archetype, and even have a dedicated deck for them. It’s not the best, but it is really fun to watch the people who play against it try and find ways around it. And to embrace the whole “trap” aspect of the monsters, I didn’t put Spells in it. Can’t wait for more support and more videos from you TGS. If I could make a suggestion, I would love to see a Subterror Architype video.
Coming from someone that live in the country known for the Rafflesia flower, the smell isn't as bad as it sounds and love the trivia videos, I always play your videos while I'm studying!
Playing this archetype since they came out, the cards where pretty unknown back then in 2013-2015... I'm not a competitiv player but i build only Decks around them and i am more of a Fieldcontrol player ,it fits my playstil perfectly fine. it's hard to believe that Traptrix decks made it quite far in tournaments, i'm happy about that and hopefully it gets more support in the Future like these last years. Thanks for sharing this Video with us.
In persona q2 new cinema labyrinth, Yukiko Amagi found a pitcher plant, and used the juices of the plant mixed with egg yolk to create a condiment for some meat that the persona 5 protagonist cooked to lure a t-rex away.
I will call this the killer loli's archetype Edit: now that I've actually watched the vid I will call them, killer plant loli's, ik the named changed a lot
I would love to hear the pitch meeting for this archetype.Konami: We need a new archetype.Any ideas? Worker: What about plant and insect Loli anime girls? Konami: Perfect! Print it!😂
From someone with arachnophobia, I really appreciate that warning at the beginning. Really wish I didn't look out of curiosity, but oh well. Thanks for the consideration
I use to love using the Traptrix for years but 2019 is when I started to play the archetype drastically. Now they are either my 2nd or 3rd favorite archetype. The amount of some people's rage kinda makes me laugh. It kinda makes me respect more trap heavy decks like Altergeist.
Tried to make a deck based around these guys back when jotl was out. Ten years later they're getting their own structure deck. I've long since stopped playing as I've got no one to play with, but I might get the deck just for collections sake.
Ah nature, constantly horrifying. I really dig this archetype though, really tempted to try running it at some point. Atrax is definitely my favorite though, but I mean really that's not surprising, it's a spider.
The Traptrix remind me of Grand Fissure from Bleach in regards to their lore... Also, the pitcher plant was the inspiration for Victreebel from Pokémon! A few weeks ago, while in York, the guy in Travelling Man pointed us towards a little side shop called OG Games, wherein there was a notice saying "spend £30 on Yu-Gi-Oh! cards and get a bonus card"! I bought a Tin of the Pharaohs and a Dark Magician Girl mat, seeing as I needed one as mine from my Red-Eyes Burndown Deck Profile vid had gone missing, I actually got two cards, Traptrix Alomerus and Axe of Despair! I pulled a Nibiru, so bought some more tins, pulling a couple Albion the Branded Dragon, several Beetrooper, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Ghost Mourner & Moonlit Child, a few Live Twins, Forbidden Droplets and Lightning Storm! No sign of what I was really after, though, Destroy Phoenix Enforcer... though I can think of a couple of uses for some of my other pulls, so it's not all bad!
Judging by some of the artwork and some of the games, it seems like the Traptrix girls are indeed like an anglerfish's lure. Being modified appendages that serve to tricks unsuspecting prey to their demise.
Fun to play and fight against, since you can actually do something and not having to worry about mystic mine since they don't use it in their deck... Duster still kill it easily tho
My theory for the traptrix monsters is they are like the sirens from Greek mythology the idea of them using something cute to lure in prey really falls in line with that
I love these Yugioh Trivia archetype series, they're awesome and keep it up and how many archetypes are there to make videos of and I always love to learn about the trivia behind all the archetypes
It's weird... This has become one of my favorite channels... The videos aren't super amazing, but they're good. Plus he reminds me of my friends that I used to play Yu-gi-oh with.
Do you update your archive lore? The traptrix got a few new cards and I don't know if anyone else is intrested in it but, I love to learn about those cards from ya
I call my pure Traptrix build "Traptrix Grove". It's based off a song by Clutch called "Cypress Grove" where the opening lyrics are "There are women, in Cypress Grove. And if they catch ya, you don't go home."
I just realized that the Traptrix archetype did the whole “monster cards that support spell/trap cards” before monsters in rush duels did. There are several monsters in Rush duels that act as support for specific spell or trap cards. e.g. the Chemical Cure monsters for Red Medicine and Blue Medicine, and Sparkhearts Girl for Sparks and for Rush duel trap card Curtain of Sparks.
Plants creep me out. Even pretty flowers will make me jump if I brush against one. But the one thing that is worse to me is a shower head or any jet of water higher than me suddenly turning on idk why lol
Do you guys see this? This is how you make horrifying/disturbing content without jump scares. You just play it straight and show what is in graphic details.
On the official(?) Lore, the girls are just apparitions or illusions, the real trap trick monsters are the giant carnivorous plant or insect that made these apparitions.
We have pitcher plants at home once. We used to have a huge fly and mosquito problem so we had pitcher plants. They died though because there was no more prey to eat. Yes. We don't have anymore flies to bother us anymore. 😁
@@roninwarriorsfan pitcher plants are native here in the Philippines. I don't know if we could have been able to raise fly traps let alone get some. But, if I could I would love to have that weird pancake plant that flies get trapped on their sticky leaves. They're cute and weird
I do hope he comes back to this archetype. While the creatures they are inspired by are pretty stressful to see, there's a lot more now to that archetype to dive into.
As someone who knew already about what these monsters were about and that these plants and Insects do exist, this vid only makes me want to play them more.
I enjoy the kinds of plants the plant ones are based on. Fun fact the pokemon vileploom (I cant spell) is based off the corpse flower also, if that wasnt already obvious
dude if a yugioh character was made for this archetype: innocent girl on the out deadly creepy girl in like a mixture of the battle maid of overlord and cuteness of like ochaco and deku's kid from my hero

@@RazielTheUnborn to be fair, I've tried all of the trap based control decks in yugioh and traptrix is (in my personal opinion) the most fun by far.
This will always be one of my favorite archtypes to use. I have way more fun messing with my opponents and slowly widdling them down than just causing a 2 hour long combo or just summoning a strong monster. If i ever get the chance to make a deck, it will end up being my most used one
Yes, why play a combo for 2 hours to bring out an op boss monster turn 1 when we can floodgate said monster and watch enemies silent rage...
I mean the dead gaze of the "girl" parts of the monsters leads me to believe that the angler fish line of thinking is the right one
It could also be that they're just not expressive. In official concept designs, you can see Atypus (one of the new monsters, based on the... well... Atypus [Purse Spider]) practicing how to smile.

Traplight
I call my pure Traptrix build "Traptrix Grove". It's based off a song by Clutch called "Cypress Grove" where the opening lyrics are "There are women, in Cypress Grove. And if they catch ya, you don't go home."
Soooo…Traptrix got a Structure Deck not long ago. Would a revised version of this video be possible?
I love the Traprix archetype!!!!
Zfrank prepared me for this video lol
NIce video. I find nature-based archetypes way more appealing than mythology ones, especially in the way you break them down.
Yesss!!!!! My beautiful archetype!!!! I love them so much!!!
So I've learned two things.
1: nature is scary.
2: when building this deck, go for the uncensored versions of these cards.
😐📸
@@world2nothing I'm not apologizing.
Thanks for bringing this series back to the channel.
I just realized that the Traptrix archetype did the whole “monster cards that support spell/trap cards” before monsters in rush duels did. There are several monsters in Rush duels that act as support for specific spell or trap cards. e.g. the Chemical Cure monsters for Red Medicine and Blue Medicine, and Sparkhearts Girl for Sparks and for Rush duel trap card Curtain of Sparks.
May I suggest the Meklord archetype? With the new support, I think it be appropriate to make a trivia vid of them.
Anyone agree?
My friend who got me to play traptrix is a botanist so I actually knew most of this prior....still cute tho
I envy ya mAh dude 😩
I don't care if they will kill me, they are soooo cute!
The Traptrix girls are shown on their own when summoned in OCG Structures. So I'm leaning towards a symbiotic relationship or a Stand sort of deal.
Plants creep me out. Even pretty flowers will make me jump if I brush against one. But the one thing that is worse to me is a shower head or any jet of water higher than me suddenly turning on idk why lol
That was my favourite monster.... Now it's in the Hole.
Seeing dmc footage in a yugioh video makes me happy cause I love both
WERE GONNA NEED AN UPDATED VERSION OF THIS AMAZING ARCHETYPE WITH THE NEW STRUCTURE DECK
The "IT'S A TRAP" archetype...
I still love this archetype because it causes me to play differently then I normally do. Also it's fun to see their every opposition negated
Do you guys see this? This is how you make horrifying/disturbing content without jump scares. You just play it straight and show what is in graphic details.
You won me over with "ants in your plants". Thank you for making my weekend
Eagerly awaiting the update for this archetype 😬
On the official(?) Lore, the girls are just apparitions or illusions, the real trap trick monsters are the giant carnivorous plant or insect that made these apparitions.
We have pitcher plants at home once. We used to have a huge fly and mosquito problem so we had pitcher plants. They died though because there was no more prey to eat. Yes. We don't have anymore flies to bother us anymore. 😁
Flytraps would have been better in case another infestation happens
@@roninwarriorsfan pitcher plants are native here in the Philippines. I don't know if we could have been able to raise fly traps let alone get some. But, if I could I would love to have that weird pancake plant that flies get trapped on their sticky leaves. They're cute and weird
I love your Yu-Gi-Oh! Trivia vids keep on going and love the vids👍
Traptix is like the real life women in card form.
I like the cute "girl" artwork in the TRAPtrix archetype
I do hope he comes back to this archetype. While the creatures they are inspired by are pretty stressful to see, there's a lot more now to that archetype to dive into.
Great video! Next time can you please do a witchcrafter trivia video?
As someone who knew already about what these monsters were about and that these plants and Insects do exist, this vid only makes me want to play them more.
I enjoy the kinds of plants the plant ones are based on. Fun fact the pokemon vileploom (I cant spell) is based off the corpse flower also, if that wasnt already obvious
Bro! For the trigger warning, did you have to show a GODDAMN TRIGGER!? 😭
dude if a yugioh character was made for this archetype:
innocent girl on the out
deadly creepy girl in
like a mixture of the battle maid of overlord and cuteness of like ochaco and deku's kid from my hero
Or a guy that looks like a girl
In the manga of OCG Structures, they made her
@@etheran4874 *NO*
Bakura but as a girl
