    Love the artwork on Sales Pitch. It is basically the Goblin of Greed trying to scam a bystander into buying a Pot of Desires pretending it is a Pot of Greed. You even see him putting up to fingers as a reference to Pot of Greed's effect which is his Sales Pitch for the pot while trying to keep the ugly side of Pot of Desires in the dark. The ugly side being of course the 10 card face down banish cost

    So, this is basically another list of "good cards that no one uses" either because of powercreep or because they are situational, or even both. But the cards are good, nonetheless. This reminds me from Sauravis, a ritual monster that can also act as a handtrap, but no one uses him anymore

      Rainbow Neos should definitely be on the list. It's weird how little play it sees, even with the Verte Anaconda combo, because its effects are even more useful *now* than ever before in Yu-Gi-Oh, seeing that it's extremely easy to completely fill out your board nowdays, so the fact that it can clear an entire section at the cost of one card is amazing. Plus it spins the card rather than sends them to the GY, so not only can it circumvent cards that have protection from being destroyed or targeted, it also makes it harder for them to recover because they can't just pull it back from the GY next turn.

      There is monster version of that too. Called "Chaos Hunter" can be special summoned from hand by discarding 1 card if your opponent do special summon but only one-sided, to your opponent so only them cannot summon chaos monster from hand since most of chaos monster needs to banish 2 cards or more from GY. Also lockdown any banish-focus decks.

      Makyura the Destructor (recently nerfed to be FAR less broken) let’s you activate a single trap from the hand the turn it’s sent from the field to the grave.
      I had an idea for a boss monster version, that plays up the destructor part: Make it level 8, it can use traps (set or flipped) as fodder for a tribute summon (normal or special, your choice), set both ATK and DEF to 3200 (double its normal ATK). Whenever Makyura, destroys a card you can activate one trap for each destroyed card, or it can search a trap or flip monster from deck or graveyard and add it to your hand. Makyura gains 400 ATK/DEF for every set trap and flip monster. When sent form the field to the graveyard, you can choose one of three effects: It has the same effect it does when it’s sent from the field to the graveyard as the current Makyura, OR you can choose to pay 500 LP a turn for the ability to negate a single attack and/or effect on set cards, one per set card while it remains in the graveyard, OR you can copy the effect of a trap or flip monster from the graveyard, and apply it to a set card of matching type (a flip monster effect onto another flip monster, a continuous trap effect onto another continuous trap, ect…)

    I really like the design philosophy of trap cards that they used with Infinite Impermanence. You can activate it from the hand, which makes it live even when going first, but you also get an added benefit if you set it first, that being negating the card in the same column. I feel like if Witch's Strike and Sales Pitch had activation requirements from the hand, but also had either some downside from activating from hand, or an upside to having them set first, they could be really good.

      I mean for traps and tech cards in general hasn't it always been like this? You just play the best ones in the format which means the pool is pretty limited. Stuff like IO, Ice Dragon's Prison, TT, Punishment, Solemn strike/judgement these days and Compulsory Evac, Bottomless in the past. And then rest of the traps that get played are for trap archetypes, like eld, paleos, traptrix, geists, or just archetype specific stuff, like revolt, fog blade, roar. Like I look at goat decks from like 2005 and they all kinda have a small ass pool of traps as well.

    I’d have also added in Judgment of Anubis. It was out within the second or third year of the game in the TCG, and would realistically counter the prevalence of twin twister or Feather Duster back in the meta, but it’s too specific and it’s only viable as a third turn option or later, since it needs your opponent to have a monster to get off its secondary effect.

Nine times out of ten, I'd be able to pinpoint who had what. Hell I remember someone having 2-3 Dragoon and just straight up banishing them with Ghost Reaper when they summoned out Anaconda and there's something satisfying. Since I don't run a full 15-card extra deck most of the time, I might run Reaper more often. Maybe not at 3, but we'll see. First I gotta get me some of those staples (when they are cheaper)

    A good tech for the side deck, that I am testing quiet a bit lately, is prohibition. In decks that don't need the spells and traps zone free, it's really good. Simply put, when it's game 2 or 3, and you know that you're going first and already have a knowledge of what you're up against, it's awesome, not only to, for example, protect you from high impact handtraps, but also to stop problematic cards.

    I think another issue with Witch's Strike is that most people seem to associate negates with Spell Speed 3, (it even has the guy from all the Solemn cards in the artwork) and since they know they cannot chain it to a SS3, they think it can't be used and therefore isn't worth playing.

    Edit: I, unironically, run Witch's Strike because almost no one at my locals has the foresight to actually deal with it before negating one of my effects, and they generally don't run anything that can negate it either (My main deck is Darklord and I try to use a Quick Play of one of them either to bait out a negate on my opponent's Standby or just to get another card on the field or in the hand, or during their main phase to disrupt them in the middle of their turn). And, as I'm the only one that runs them, people don't build decks around that card or cards like it. I did mention that if it was a Quick-play, hand trap, or a Spell Speed 3, it'd see more play outside of just me.
