Tinkerer Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Seven in One Blow Trap Discard 7 random cards from your opponent's hand. You can only activate 1 "Seven in One Blow" per turn. I think I posted this before under a different name on NCM, but I was inspired to repost it here b/c Godbrand's story reminded me of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayfield Lumina Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Ummm.... am I missing something? Because this Trap seems like the most broken card ever o_o'. No wait, I got it! It's not broken because it can only be activated if your opponent has exactly 7 cards in the hand, no more and no less, isn't it? A troll card you'll never expect, extremely hard to activate, but devastating if it does. Unless it can be paired with something that allows your opponent to draw cards. This would be very cool in Pokemon TCG, though . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty finicky too: if the player chains to have less than 7, then the card fizzles. I'm thinking that to use it actively it'd need a specific deck based around it, but even then it'd be pretty awkward because a lot of your deck would be devoted to giving your opponent advantage. Otherwise, a ridiculous but conditional side deck card like "Waking the Dragon". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go and check EDIT: Found it! Gift of the Greed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerer Posted March 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 You could also use this alongside Heavy Slump which (flavorwise) fits alongside the Greed stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha, I didn't know this card. Looks like this damn goblin of greed is getting into some severe economic problems.... much like all of our world, due to a certain "#%/@ Virus.

morrisoni4 Posted March 13, 2020 Report Share Posted March 13, 2020 There are a number of possible cards - "Chainsaw Insect", "Destiny HERO Defender", "Dark Bribe" (slightly situational), "One Day of Peace", et al. Speaking as someone who runs an "Appropriate"-based "Exodia" Deck, (that uses all of those cards, "Gift of Greed", and more) I'd say that this card would fit in well there. You let make them draw cards, draw a bunch of your own, then remove any hand advantage they may have had. It could also be used to accelerate a Deck Out victory. It might be slightly difficult to get the exact number, but if you combo it with "Anti-Spell Fragrance" and "Mind Drain", it would hinder them from stopping you after you activate it. Effects that let them activate Traps from their hand would still do it, but those are much less common hand traps than Quick-Play Spells and Monster Effects. It could backfire if you're facing an "Infernity", "Danger!" or "Fabled" Deck, but by the time you would be able to activate it, you'd know that already. Also, sidenote: if it can only be activated when they have exactly 7 cards, is the 'random' part of the text really needed? Because you're getting rid of the entire hand at once.

morrisoni4 Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 But I thought the whole point was it only worked at exactly 7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darj Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 Heavy Slump came to my mind as I read the card, yeah xD It's a better Heavy Slump basically, if only because it requires 1 less card in hand and leaves the opponent with nothing at hand. But like Heavy Slump, it's either situational or requires deck dedication to work. It should be fine, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
