"Deep Web": Adding Cryptography to Yu-Gi-Oh

[Stan Alda]

Yep, it's another utilitarian Spell card from yours truly. After randomly screwing around on the Web (but not the Deep Web, mind you), I came up with this idea. It's designed to add an element of surprise to the game, and is great for decks that revolve around returning monsters from your Deck/Graveyard to your hand. Beyond that, use your imagination. I'm not sure if it should have a cost or not, so feel free to give suggestions.

As long as this card is on the field, you do not have to reveal cards you add to your hand from your Deck or Graveyard.

I'm not sure how you would be able to hide what you retrieve from the Graveyard that well, unless your opponent just doesn't care that much.

But the revealing thing was so you don't use Sangan to fetch DAD and never tell your opponent. So, have this, and it becomes terribly easy to cheat with your searchers. :/

It's a mechanic that would never work.

People could and would cheat and add cards that don't fit the requirements and simply go from there.

Fair enough. It was an idea I had, and I figured I'd post it and see the reaction. Hey, not all my ideas are good ones. Thanks for the criticism.

It's not even that it's a bad idea. It's a brilliant idea in theory; it's the players of the game who would make it flawed.
