Thanks boss! I'm a fan of your Yugioh videos too! You know what would be cool if you haven't done it already is a video on cards that appear in multiple other cards. For example, how Marauding Captain and Gagagigo appear in the art of several other cards like, My Body as a Shield, Reinforcement of the Army, Warrior Returning Alive, etc. Dunno what points could be made about strategy and playability but it'd be a cool video nonetheless
actually...in japanese dub they read out tje effects of EVERY card so yes it isnt something special im also pretty sure they did that in the eng dub (didnt watch it tho) so why is it a meme?
Basically what +RxY said. The only reason _Pot of Greed_ is more meme-able than any other card (all of which the effects were also explained every time they were played), is because it is the effect-having card that was easily played most often in the Anime.
I actually play it in generic cyberse (at 3 in my 60 card variant and at 2 in my 40 card variant). Through 1 normal summon combo of Widget Kid + Lady Debug, going first, you can make a 4 material Saryuja, use its 3 material effect to SS one extra monster from hand (from one of the monsters you draw from the 4 material effect, ideally.) Link that off into Borrelsword, use Avarice to draw 2, and potentially keep combos going. Worst case scenario, the combo ends in a borrelsword. Really fun deck, highly recommend. They have all sorts of weird and crazy support.
Hell even a graveyard centric archetype like zombies barely plays it even with multiple potential send to graveyard effects typically they activate through self banishing or recursion
Considering how it was the first new Pot Of spell ever made after Pot of Greed, Pot of Generosity is actually pretty hilarious. It's clearly made to be the opposide of Pot of Greed in every way - it's slim rather than fat, it has a calm expression rather than Greed's manic one, it has two handles instead of one, the names are obviously opposites, and Greed takes two cards from your deck while Generosity gives two cards to your deck. The only way Pot of Generosity could be more opposite to Pot of Greed is if it were a trap or something.
Having your opponent put 2 cards in their deck would be the absolute opposite I think, but that would actually be quiet good soo.. maybe let them draw 2 instead.
Excuse me, but Pot of Generosity is a +1 because while you are using one card from your hand, you're putting two cards into your deck and the cards in the deck do matter because that is where they come from. Greed is just wrong but generosity is good. I remember this one game, where I opened with 2 Pot of Generosities and used them to put back my starting hand into my deck where it would be safe from my opponent's Gouki deck's Topologic Gamblar's ExtraLink discard effect, where you can force your opponent to discard 2, if it's ExtraLinked. It's the best of all the pot cards. Pot of Greed... I have no idea what it does. Pot of Avarice has a Hitler mustache. Pot of Benevolence can be used to give your opponent back their cards from their GY, so it could be used as a neg 3, in that regard because you loose 1 and they gain 2 for their deck. Pot of Duality prevents special summoning and is a +0. Pot of Dichotomy, is grammatically incorrect because it shuffles 3 types of monsters but Dichotomy means: a division or contrast between *two* things that are or are represented as being opposed or entirely different. That's just wrong because 2 is not 3. Pot of Riches looks funny. Pot of Desires is a neg 9. Pot of Acquisitiveness is something I cannot pronounce, therefore it's bad.
Generosity is a -3. The deck is NOT a resource. You cannot take a card from anywhere in your deck and use it. Which means, a card at the top of your deck is just as useless as a card at the bottom of your deck.
Damien Lassiter well, as far as I know in the OCG the format doesn't keep a bunch of monsters in the grave right now, so it makes sense. Either they're banishing their monsters or they want those monsters there, so the shuffle cost actually is a cost right now
Thanks ya' think that Dzeeff claims Desires is great (which it is) because it is played in tournaments and is in all the top decks (which it is) but here we have Avarice not being played when it can and yet no one does, even as a one off, in something like ABC, where you can put back your Dragon Busters.
Sometimes. I play synchrons, so I would be pissed if my play makers (which is most of my synchros) got banished from the extra. But it certainly does have its place.
Omigosh, I did a dumb experiment cuz I have 3 GC's layinh around and it's pretty dumb in a deck like Zombies. Or anything where the GY is a second "Hand".
Beary Boy Graceful Charity does have a slightly higher chance to draw a specific card you need, but most of the time, ending up with 1 more card than what you had before you cast the spell is much better. However, Graceful Charity is a convenient way to get specific cards into the Graveyard, which makes it better in specific decks.
1:35 Pot of Greed has always been unbalanced in the card game. The card was made really to give characters in the manga and anime a reason to put more cards in their hands so they can keep playing new crazy stuff. Back when it wasn't MEANT to be a card game. It ain't a card, it's a plot device. In both cases, totally overpowered.
POT OF POT [DRUGZ-EFFECT] WHEN THIS CARD IS FLIP SUMMONED, YOU CAN TAKE A BONG BREAK. IF YOUR OPPONENT IS A DRUG ADDICT, THEY TAKE 600 DAMAGE. ATK 4200 DEF 6900
I remember back in ABC format I was playing at a regional and used Pot of Avarice to return my Buster Dragons after they got Winter Cherry'd in the same way you described in the video, great side deck card for about two weeks lol
Pack filler. You can't just have packs of good cards because once everyone is able to get all of the good cards then the pack won't sell. You need to fill it with bad cards so you can mask the good cards for profit
I would argue that pot of greed is the best card in the game since it works with any deck (except if you didn't want to draw cards) meaning that if it wasn't on the forbidden list, it would probably be run 3 of in every deck
Orga777 look at the new TCG archetype and how the graveyard is basically a second hand anymore everything is getting more recursion or just effects when they hit grave, Pot of greed has a low ceiling of uses VS Graceful Charity.
Pot of Acquisitiveness can also shuffle back your opponent's banished monsters, so you could potentially use it as disruption against some strategy, along with forcing an ABC dragon buster by targeting the 3 pieces so they HAVE to tag out for them to not lose the 3 pieces for a while.
Pot of Avarice could use an errata involving a once per turn activation clause to make it more balanced. Although, the OCG has this card at 3 currently, and no one's playing it there, so I dunno.
Grant Hernandez like Steven Rockford said I think it's most likely a different mindset. I see this kind of thing in other international games like League of Legends all the time. What we consider good and/or is actually good in whatever the current meta is in each region is wildly different. The over arching themes of the meta tend to be the same, but it's the little things that tend to be on different planets
I think it is because they have "Maxx "C"" legal. And because of this, they don't play many combo decks, but instead they use more control decks. Control decks don't put that many cards in the grave as a combo deck does.
Narf D. Japanese TCG players have always been less “Spikey” than western players. They’re more focused on playing what’s fun while still being tight and cohesive. Western players just want to play the best cards.
As a Magic the Gathering player, I have to say that, even with the restriction of mana, draw power is still one of the most OP things you can do. When someone starts drawing even so much as two cards each turn rather than the one, they're already ahead in the game.
(MTG) Unless you need more lands, and play a draw one, only to get the most expensive card in your deck, or have too many lands already, and draw into more lands, etc. Point being, i have never found that drawing a card or two extra is broken, and often times can lead to dead draws.
A lot of people seem to forget that there are cards that exist where they can specifically be brought out easier from the deck or even only brought out from the deck with a special ability. Pot of Generosity was clearly made for decks that rely on activating those kinds of deck summons
Well obviously for Magical Mallet no one knew that card was going to be a thing, and reload switches out your whole hand, Pot of Generosity let’s you pick 2. I know that’s really nitpicking the benefits but it does have a niche use
Dzeeff, Pot of benevolence does have a way to be viable. Using 1 copy in combination with 2 copies of jar of avarice creates very useful recycling draw power for stun and stall decks and you can use the trap imperial iron wall to send benevolence to the grave instead of the ban pile thus allowing you to indefinitely loop through your deck while stunning your opponent or stalling for a victory.
It's funny to me that Pot of Averice in the video is considered still dangerous because so many decks and dump 5+ monsters into the GY in one turn, but it's now unlimited. And I think the reason for that is a lot of monsters in the GY, put there by the turn player, are probably there for a reason and they don't want them in their deck.
It’s crazy how in 4 years the game has shifted from Pot of Avarice being equals/better than pot of greed to being unlimited and much worse/unplayable in the current meta
Hey man it's great that you enjoy putting those clouds in the air, Zork knows I do. Take right now for instance. I'm laying in my bed right now, double-fisting two lung busters, trying to figure out what pot of greed does. Hey let's play a game. I play rocket ship in attack mode. (_)_)==========D~~~~~
How is pot of desire at all good? Taking a negative 10 not even to the graveyard but banished completely just to draw 2 cards is considered good or even useable? Someone explain
@@-WolfMan- you run like 3 copies of everything and you use it in hyper combo decks like pendulums as an extender or ash bait... Mainly used at the end of combos. It's not the end of the world if you banish combo pieces in decks that use it
I just realized that flavor/artwork wise, pot of desires is a misfit; before it, konami would release two opposite pots followed by a combination of them. Desires, however is just a combination of greed and avarice, who already have combination pots in duality and dichotomy (even the effects fit decently in this flavor). So in conclusion: the scrubs were right all along; pot of desires is garbage!
3 Pot of Desires? That's basically means you're only playing with 1/4 of your deck. What if your combo pieces are the ones that got banished? I mean face down banishment is like a death sentence isn;t it?
You know how in 99% of games you win or lose with 15-20 cards still left in your deck? What if I told you that there was a way to trade 10 of those cards for 2 draws.
Ideally, you're using your search/combo cards before you use Pot of Desires, at which point Desires is digging for future plays or defensive cards. The other thing to remember is that even if you're running three Pot of Desires, you're probably not going to *use* all three. Players ran three just so they saw it as early as possible.
my main problem with Aquiv. is that it's a situational card and only good in specific decks like you mentioned. I find it good in my Dark Danger Dino link deck as a 1 of to recycle back Malicious or banish dinos, depending on what I need
It's just a testament on how decisive the first turns of the match have become. ANYTHING that can provide extra resources before your opp gets anything online is worth at least considering viability.
pot of dichotomy was heavily used in HAT format where you could use it to recycle your hands and a dionea to keep playing granted it was never played as a 3 cause seeing it turn one is dead but back when it was a much more control based format the recycling was really impactful
One use I have found for pot of acquisistiveness is in a more miracle fusion based hero deck using wonder driver to recycle the miracle fusion and make a link 3 and use miracle fusion again to make another hero to make up for your losses or go in to another link 4 monster and then use pot of acquisitiveness to recycle the banished heros and draw 1, it’s not a half bad combo
I remember when Pot of Duality was first released as secret rare. My friend bought me a couple of Duelist Revolution for my birthday, and second pack in I pulled one. The card shop I went to agreed to trade the card for store credit, which I used to get one of each of the collectors tin. Red Dragon for myself and Stardust for the friend who got me the booster pack.
not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, but pot of benevolence is actually useful in some duel links farming decks as it has pretty good synergy as a safety net for dark paladin discards
You didnt really bring up how pot of acquisitiveness can shuffle back your opponents banished monsters so it can be used as disruption in certain situations
Some times I play Ritual Beasts and pot of Acqisitiveness is a really good hard for all of the banishing the deck does, it can give you some more plays so its pretty good.
This video reminded me of how you got to draw a card "just" by not growing a n extra mana in scrolls. That gamemechanic changed the balance for carddrawing effects so much that a card like eagle eye that said "draw 1 card" wasn'T even played by many players.
the isolde HERO combo banishes 2 malicious and 1 shadow mist every time which means acquisitveness is always live in the same hand you can summon 2 warriors with
Pot of Acquisitiveness may have some use in decks like D/D where a lot of their cards can banish themselves from the graveyard. But then, if you're running multiples, you don't really care that much so I guess not.
Jason Clark I thought about this but I tried it multiple times and it was more of a bust. Yeah getting back slimes and shit seemed cool but if I had used those resources up I had already locked down the board. Took it out after a while and stuck with desires.
I remember when pot of duality came out just because my local tcg basically didn't restrict how many pre releases you could get. Ended up walking away with a full naturia/bicorns after selling 3 pot of dualities with basically 40 bucks spent.
Pot of generosity is better than magical mallet because it let's me shuffle my wall shadow back into my deck without worrying about immediately drawing it back and ruining my magical labyrinth play
There’s a card called Jar of Greed that is basically Pot of Greed without the card advantage. I know it doesn’t have Pot in it’s name, but considering how similar it is, I’m surprised it wasn’t mentioned here.
they should make an archetype around pot of generosity and benevolence . ex: if pot of generosity is activated reveal this card in your hand, draw 2 cards and set 1 pot of benevolence from your deck. if this card would be shuffled from the graveyard into the deck (quick effect) add 1 pot of generosity from your deck or graveyard to your hand. if your opponent would draw a card shuffle this faceup card into your deck negate that effect and discard 1 card from your opponents hand (your choice). or something along those lines. i imagine them being like inquisitors.
My friend uses pot of acquisitiveness in his melodious deck. What he does is he activates schubertas effect banishing three monsters to boost its attack and then activate the pot.
I am disappoint. How could you forget the most impactful Pot card that's ever been released? It's not even a Pot... It's a Jar... of Greed
THE Act Man? In my comment section? Big fan :)
Thanks boss! I'm a fan of your Yugioh videos too! You know what would be cool if you haven't done it already is a video on cards that appear in multiple other cards.

Its okay, you can just use Magic Cylinder to stall for a turn and shuffle it back in the next turn.
Not if I use the golden castle card which makes you discard half your deck each turn. Yea, messed you up.
Pot of greed is so complicated the anime explains what it does every time someone plays it.
Hey, I can remember at least one instance in the first season of the GX dub where they didn't explain it...

Pot of Avarice can't ever Come back, 2020: at 3 barely played
Don't lie to me!
I actually play it in generic cyberse (at 3 in my 60 card variant and at 2 in my 40 card variant). Through 1 normal summon combo of Widget Kid + Lady Debug, going first, you can make a 4 material Saryuja, use its 3 material effect to SS one extra monster from hand (from one of the monsters you draw from the 4 material effect, ideally.)

Excuse me, but Pot of Generosity is a +1 because while you are using one card from your hand, you're putting two cards into your deck and the cards in the deck do matter because that is where they come from. Greed is just wrong but generosity is good.

As a Magic the Gathering player, I have to say that, even with the restriction of mana, draw power is still one of the most OP things you can do. When someone starts drawing even so much as two cards each turn rather than the one, they're already ahead in the game.
(MTG) Unless you need more lands, and play a draw one, only to get the most expensive card in your deck,
or have too many lands already, and draw into more lands, etc.
Point being, i have never found that drawing a card or two extra is broken, and often times can lead to dead draws.
@@ianbraun271 RNG is a factor in what you draw, but it does set up a lot of resource early game.
I've come from the future to announce that pot of avarice is currently out of the ban list
A lot of people seem to forget that there are cards that exist where they can specifically be brought out easier from the deck or even only brought out from the deck with a special ability. Pot of Generosity was clearly made for decks that rely on activating those kinds of deck summons
And why would you play that when Reload was already out and Magical Mallet would come out a year latter?
Well obviously for Magical Mallet no one knew that card was going to be a thing, and reload switches out your whole hand, Pot of Generosity let’s you pick 2. I know that’s really nitpicking the benefits but it does have a niche use
Coboxite It was basically a Niche card that was powercreeped with Magical Mallet
pot of avarice is also counterintuitive with limiting extra deck monsters
I can never un-see the Hitler Mustache on Pot of Avarice.
After your break could you review the "jar" cards
Dzeeff, Pot of benevolence does have a way to be viable. Using 1 copy in combination with 2 copies of jar of avarice creates very useful recycling draw power for stun and stall decks and you can use the trap imperial iron wall to send benevolence to the grave instead of the ban pile thus allowing you to indefinitely loop through your deck while stunning your opponent or stalling for a victory.
Combo Pot of Acquisitiveness after running 3 copies of Allure of Darkness
It's funny to me that Pot of Averice in the video is considered still dangerous because so many decks and dump 5+ monsters into the GY in one turn, but it's now unlimited. And I think the reason for that is a lot of monsters in the GY, put there by the turn player, are probably there for a reason and they don't want them in their deck.
Yea he said he doesn't think it will ever be ubanned, yet now its unlimited
That is a reason, but I think the more likely reason is that the card ends up being dead in the hand if your combo gets interrupted.
Pot of Greed support is weird
I just got an idea for a one-turn win deck: 35 drawing spells and the five pieces of Exodia.
I mean you're review is great, but what does pot of greed do?
It’s crazy how in 4 years the game has shifted from Pot of Avarice being equals/better than pot of greed to being unlimited and much worse/unplayable in the current meta
Pot of Avarice is at 3 in the OCG though and it's barely seeing play
Can someone help me, but what does it do??
I LOVE WEED
Me too man though where I live you only get crappy weed
Yeah Pot's gr8 m8
Atlach Nacha I'm picking up later 🤓🤓 but we get some fire in my state
Xhalonick I also love weed. Wish it were legal where I libe though.
Hey man it's great that you enjoy putting those clouds in the air, Zork knows I do. Take right now for instance. I'm laying in my bed right now, double-fisting two lung busters, trying to figure out what pot of greed does. Hey let's play a game. I play rocket ship in attack mode.

There is one way to use generosity effectively put cards back if you are about to deck out
Duality, reveal fire fist bear, Normal summon bear, attack, set tenki.
Ha gottim. Look at that broken advantage.
I would like to see you do reviews on the other Jar cars, because I feel they tie in so well with the pots
How is pot of desire at all good? Taking a negative 10 not even to the graveyard but banished completely just to draw 2 cards is considered good or even useable? Someone explain
What if you banish the cards you want? You lose 10 cards randomly from your deck.
+MemeGod. Not if that Shit gets Hit by Ash or Ghost. Now Say Bye-Bye👋 to 11 cards for NOTHING!! You need to THINK when you Think!!
@@-WolfMan- you run like 3 copies of everything and you use it in hyper combo decks like pendulums as an extender or ash bait... Mainly used at the end of combos. It's not the end of the world if you banish combo pieces in decks that use it
@@T30BO55 Who in the Hell plays pendulums anymore... Live In The NOW!!
Reviewing literally every single Yu-Gi-Oh card ever made
I miss spamming avarice before it became too good. Konami became TERRIFIED of draw power for real
Verlisify didn't know you would be here
My wrist is so stupid they call it verlisify
Verlisify what you doing here pokemon man lol
You suck
Wait since when do u play yugioh? My fave poketuber also plays yugioh?
Pot of avarice is so greedy
It stole Hitler's mustache
I just realized that flavor/artwork wise, pot of desires is a misfit; before it, konami would release two opposite pots followed by a combination of them. Desires, however is just a combination of greed and avarice, who already have combination pots in duality and dichotomy (even the effects fit decently in this flavor).
So in conclusion: the scrubs were right all along; pot of desires is garbage!
Although greed, avarice and desires (as in the words) are very similar in concept, and thus making pot of desires decent in that context... idk man
Just realize that every single card that has Pot of Greed part is either broken or competitively viable
3 Pot of Desires? That's basically means you're only playing with 1/4 of your deck. What if your combo pieces are the ones that got banished? I mean face down banishment is like a death sentence isn;t it?
You know how in 99% of games you win or lose with 15-20 cards still left in your deck? What if I told you that there was a way to trade 10 of those cards for 2 draws.
Ideally, you're using your search/combo cards before you use Pot of Desires, at which point Desires is digging for future plays or defensive cards. The other thing to remember is that even if you're running three Pot of Desires, you're probably not going to *use* all three. Players ran three just so they saw it as early as possible.
dzeff If that's the only way to get draw 2's...I'll take my risk with draw 1 cards.
Pot of weed
It lets me hit two blunts off my dick
my main problem with Aquiv. is that it's a situational card and only good in specific decks like you mentioned. I find it good in my Dark Danger Dino link deck as a 1 of to recycle back Malicious or banish dinos, depending on what I need
Now do Jars please
A review of the jars (Morphing Jar and so on) would be pretty cool.
so, you like Pot of Negative 9 (desires)? BALSPHEMY! (I'm not kiding)
joaocisne556 B-but muh immediate access
Seriously, banishing cards is bad enough, but when its 10 of them, face down? No thanks.
It's just a testament on how decisive the first turns of the match have become. ANYTHING that can provide extra resources before your opp gets anything online is worth at least considering viability.
if it banishes face-down it'sa an automaitac NO to me.
5:11 Okay but why does it have a Hitler mustache?
(Insert weed humor to remain relevant in the comments)
pot of dichotomy was heavily used in HAT format where you could use it to recycle your hands and a dionea to keep playing
granted it was never played as a 3 cause seeing it turn one is dead but back when it was a much more control based format the recycling was really impactful
I want rata to explain every pot card in his emo tune
tim5fl I would, too
One use I have found for pot of acquisistiveness is in a more miracle fusion based hero deck using wonder driver to recycle the miracle fusion and make a link 3 and use miracle fusion again to make another hero to make up for your losses or go in to another link 4 monster and then use pot of acquisitiveness to recycle the banished heros and draw 1, it’s not a half bad combo
Pot of Desires is a neg nine
Rasengan Sarcasm?
170skeith yes lol, imagine genuinely thinking it 😅
It's so nice to know finally what all these Pot cards do
FAQ
Q:Wat dus pot uf gried doo??
A: Let’s you draw 2 cards.
Sorry I didn’t follow your meme agenda. 🤷♂️
I remember when Pot of Duality was first released as secret rare. My friend bought me a couple of Duelist Revolution for my birthday, and second pack in I pulled one. The card shop I went to agreed to trade the card for store credit, which I used to get one of each of the collectors tin. Red Dragon for myself and Stardust for the friend who got me the booster pack.

not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, but pot of benevolence is actually useful in some duel links farming decks as it has pretty good synergy as a safety net for dark paladin discards
You didnt really bring up how pot of acquisitiveness can shuffle back your opponents banished monsters so it can be used as disruption in certain situations
Some times I play Ritual Beasts and pot of Acqisitiveness is a really good hard for all of the banishing the deck does, it can give you some more plays so its pretty good.
This video reminded me of how you got to draw a card "just" by not growing a n extra mana in scrolls. That gamemechanic changed the balance for carddrawing effects so much that a card like eagle eye that said "draw 1 card" wasn'T even played by many players.
the endless mystery around the mind of the people who use pot of desires
the isolde HERO combo banishes 2 malicious and 1 shadow mist every time which means acquisitveness is always live in the same hand you can summon 2 warriors with
Pot of Acquisitiveness may have some use in decks like D/D where a lot of their cards can banish themselves from the graveyard. But then, if you're running multiples, you don't really care that much so I guess not.
Jason Clark I thought about this but I tried it multiple times and it was more of a bust. Yeah getting back slimes and shit seemed cool but if I had used those resources up I had already locked down the board. Took it out after a while and stuck with desires.
Makes sense.
Still waiting for a D/D link monster. :-(
I remember when pot of duality came out just because my local tcg basically didn't restrict how many pre releases you could get. Ended up walking away with a full naturia/bicorns after selling 3 pot of dualities with basically 40 bucks spent.
Pot of generosity is better than magical mallet because it let's me shuffle my wall shadow back into my deck without worrying about immediately drawing it back and ruining my magical labyrinth play
There’s a card called Jar of Greed that is basically Pot of Greed without the card advantage. I know it doesn’t have Pot in it’s name, but considering how similar it is, I’m surprised it wasn’t mentioned here.
Dzeeff/July 2018: Pot of Avarice can never come back.
January 2020 banlist: Are you sure about that?
"Pot of avarice can never come back", umm its at multiple in the OCG? Didn't mention?
Wait what,? Avarice was banned?
"putting 5 back was too much of a drawback"
And then a couple years later Lightsworns said "hold our beers" and came crashing through the ceiling.
they should make an archetype around pot of generosity and benevolence . ex: if pot of generosity is activated reveal this card in your hand, draw 2 cards and set 1 pot of benevolence from your deck. if this card would be shuffled from the graveyard into the deck (quick effect) add 1 pot of generosity from your deck or graveyard to your hand. if your opponent would draw a card shuffle this faceup card into your deck negate that effect and discard 1 card from your opponents hand (your choice). or something along those lines. i imagine them being like inquisitors.
There's a pretty neat FTK strategy with Pot of Benevolence in a Fortune Lady deck in Duel Links.
My friend uses pot of acquisitiveness in his melodious deck. What he does is he activates schubertas effect banishing three monsters to boost its attack and then activate the pot.
