Card of the Month July 2011 : Pot of Duality

Sure the card has been out for quite some time now. Yes it is hard to get and expensive. However, a new product from Konami will change this. The two new 2011 Wave 1 Collectible Tins both come with a copy of Pot of Duality.

Pot of Duality is a Spell Card that lets you reveal the top 3 cards of your Deck, add 1 to your hand, and then shuffle the other 2 back.  You can only activate 1 Pot of Duality each turn, and you can’t Special Summon on the turn you do. However despite these “drawbacks”, it lets you draw into your most important cards faster and more often.

Some types of cards it helps you dig out of your deck are as follows

  • One of Cards
  • Combo Pieces
  • Power Cards
  • Side Deck Cards

This is a very powerful card because of the advantage this card can give you. On your first turn, you start with 6 cards in hand and if one of those is Pot of Duality, you can activate it and you’ll see a total of 9 cards from your deck. By the time your next turn comes by, you will have seen 10 cards from your deck. This is a very strong stand point especially if you drew into the right cards.

Every deck can use this card but there are some that increase in power so much that it’s almost impossible to play without a couple copies of Pot of Duality main decked. Some great examples are :

  • Gravekeepers
  • Stun
  • Agent/Fairy
  • Naturia
  • Worms
  • Gladiator Beast (Proved by Intch95)
  • Blackwings
  • Heroes

The reason why this is my card of the month for July 2011 is not only because of its powerful effect but of how easy it will be to obtain copies of this card.
