So it's a Trap that thickens your deck by 1 card and relies on you drawing that specific copy later in the duel, plus having something valuable in your Graveyard? Right now, I can think of a combo with Cat of Ill Omen, or running lots of draw power, but in the latter case, the retrieval options are slim.

I like it, but would never use it.

Hmm, thinking about it, Dark World could use this. Use dealings to draw it, then it goes instantly to grave and you pull a Dark world monster to your hand and discard it.

Other then that though, There isn't much use besides trying to save yourself

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work like that, as Dealings would be mid-resolution, so Treasure should not be able to activate until after the current chain has resolved.

EDIT: Looked it up. Pharoah's Treasure will miss the timing if the last action is not it being drawn.

Yeah same here (As in I looked it up to), though if it did it'd make it pretty good. -sigh-

Cursed timing rules. -sigh- But they're there for a reason.

Fair enough. maybe Synchro to extra deck use? (not really sure about it though)

Pot of Avarice
Draw 2 cards, then return 5 Synchros to your Extra Deck.

Well, it's not hard to trigger, you just can't draw it mid-chain/resolution.

My issue with it is that

1) It's a Trap
2) It goes back to your deck and you need to draw it again.

That makes it slow AND inconsistent.

Well the way i see it, it's mostly a life saver. Plus your going to know your when you'll draw it. Though your opponent will to.

If it either:
a) Did not miss the timing.
B) Could make up for the -1 at least temporally
c) Could guarantee that you would draw it within that Duel without relying on a FLIP and such.

It can be amusing, but has too many drawbacks (+ its a Trap) ^^"

With the appropriate support made, it could go somewhere though..

At the very least you have a means to get pieces back and reuse big draws. In exoidia I think its better then phoenix.

A Feather of the Phoenix - good card but your discarding a card along with it self to add 1 card to the top of your deck. unless you'v got something to draw it, it's possible that it'll die.

Dark Eruption - Exodia piece regain, good card but limited to just a dark monster with 1500 or less attack.

Pharaohs Treasure - Like Dark Eruption your only negging 1 card from your hand, and like Feather your adding a card to the deck. Difference being is that it's less likely to be destroyed and can take a bit to get. Does that matter? Not really, your running exodia where drawings essential. So your going to go through your Deck pretty fast anyways. Once you draw into this, you'll get a free card from your grave to your hand. And thats any card to your hand.

In conclusion, Pharaohs better

Phoenix isn't good in Exodia. Eruption...eh, I usually prefer using Backup Soldier mixed with indiscriminate self-deck destruction. Nothing like discarding 10 cards for Card Destruction...

But Exodia needs to be fast to be good, and using a card slot for a slow, inconsistent retrieval method that is a -1 (really bad in a deck that can't afford a hand under 5 for an extended stretch of time) isn't that great.

That said, the retrieval option of ANY card is excellent.

¬_¬" umm....

Pharaoh's Treasure:
Your draw is not "free" at all. You lost 1 card beforehand when you activated it. A (-1) that didn't make anything for you at the time and might not even do anything for you within the Duel.
A Feather of the Phoenix is no good in Exodia either. Loosing too many cards in your hand can hurt you as most Exodia Decks I've seen don't add much more card advantage. Also, if they are not OTK (One Turn Kill) Decks, you'll need to use up some of your hand at some point (actually, even with OTK versions you'll have to occasionally depending on your luck).

Dark Eruption might be "[i]limited[/i]" to 1500 or lower DARK monsters, but that's all you need to get because Exodia Decks completely focus on Exodia. The rest is only support for it, so what better options than Exodia could you get? Not to mention the card is a (+0) unlike the former ones, and it WILL get you what you need instantly to your hand.

That said, I like using Dark Factory of Mass Production =P (too bad it can't get the head, but other than that its good.

--------
Putting all the above aside. All the above stuff will not do. You shouldn't allow your pieces of Exodia to even touch your Graveyard. It makes them a fair target for your opponent to remove from play....

Running Pharaos Treasure over Dark Eruption in an Exodia deck means that you're wasting a turn to set it up, and hoping on the off-chance of drawing into it again. Get what I'm hinting? A turn; a turn wasted that you cannot afford to lose.

The only good Exodia decks out there are the FTK variants. Meaning that a turn you waste is a turn where you could have used more cards that let you draw instead of this card, that has to be set.

Dark Euption however just adds 2 monsters to your hand with 1500 ATK or less. It doesn't waste a turn. So what if it doesn't return any card? It's still better than Pharaohs Treasure.
