Guard Robe Exchange
Anime Equip Spell
The equipped monster gains 500 ATK. When the equipped monster's ATK
is changed by another card effect, you can inflict damage to your
opponent equal to the change in ATK.

The ATK boost is minimal but if its ATK changes
enough, like with Darkworld Shackles, then you could deal a big amount
of damage. |
 |
Small Stopper
Anime Continuous Trap
Face-up monsters with 1000 or less ATK cannot declare an attack.
During the End Phase, if the turn player controls an Attack Position
monster and that player did not declare an attack this turn, that
player takes 1000 damage.

Small Stopper is right because it stops so
little that it's virtually pointless as monsters with at least 1001 ATK
can get by this. |

Hyper Quick!
Anime Normal Trap
When this card is sent from the hand or field to the Graveyard, you
can draw 1 card, and if that card is a Spell Card, you can treat it
as a Quick-Play Spell Card.

The first part is easy to trigger but the 2nd
half has only 1/3 odds of being successful. |
 |
Unfair Treaty
Anime Continuous Trap
Activate only by sending 2 cards from your hand to the Graveyard. If
you would pay Life Points to activate the effect of a face-up
Continuous Spell Card you control, your opponent pays that cost
instead, if able.

It can be useful to drain your opponent's LP but
that means running multiple costly cards to have even the chance of
using this effectively. I don't think that's really worth it in the end. |
 |
Labyrinth of Decisions
Anime Continuous Spell
After damage calculation, when an opponent's monster battles, you
can pay 600 Life Points. Your opponent sends 1 card from their hand
to the Graveyard.

Seems pretty pointless to me. You're paying LP
to force your opponent to lose a card from their hand when there are
better ways to do that. |

Extra Hundred
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when a monster you control is selected as an attack
target by an opponent's monster. The attack target cannot be
destroyed by battle. During this turn, if an opponent's monster
battles with that monster, that monster can attack once again in a
row. When that monster is selected as an attack target, its ATK
becomes equal to the ATK of the attacking monster +100.

The extra hundred offered by this card
is quite minimal like its other effects. Might as well use a card that
doesn't have a temporary ATK boost because at least then you'll deal
more damage and don't have to wait for an opponent's monster to attack. |

Episode 97: Sinister Shadows |
 |
Neutrino Dowsing
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when an Xyz Monster is Special Summoned to your
opponent's side of the field. Detach 1 Xyz Material from a
"Galaxy-Eyes" Xyz Monster you control and send 1 Normal Spell Card
from your Deck to the Graveyard, then you can activate the effect of
the card sent to the Graveyard by this effect.

More like nonsensical downfall as you're forced
to wait for your opponent to Xyz Summon, then get rid of an Xyz Material
from your Galaxy-Eyes Xyz Monster just to activate the effect of a
Normal Spell you send by its effect. |
 |
Triangle Evolution
Anime Normal Spell
Select 1 face-up Level 5 or higher monster you control. During this
turn, if that monster is used for an Xyz Summon, you can treat it as
3 monsters. An Xyz Monster Summoned using that monster as Xyz
Material loses 1000 ATK.

Doesn't really matter that it works on a good
deal of monsters when the Xyz Monster starts off weaker than it would've
been had you Xyz Summoned it normally. |
 |
Shark Splash
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when a "Shark" monster you control is destroyed.
Special Summon that monster. It loses
1000 ATK, then your opponent takes damage equal to that monster's
current ATK.

I'd argue that 95% of Shark monsters are weak
enough as is and this only makes them weaker, which also means you won't
be dealing much damage. |
 |
Glorious Numbers
Anime Normal Spell
Activate only when you control no monsters. Select 1 "Number"
monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon it, then draw 1 card.
COMMON |

It's restrained to Number monsters and only when
you're out of monsters completely but you also get to draw 1 card,
though that doesn't make up for the revived monster's lack of Xyz
Materials. |

Umbral Horror Retaliation
Anime Quick-Play Spell
Activate only when an "Umbral Horror" monster you control is
destroyed by battle. Destroy the monster that destroyed it.

Not really any better than monsters like
Newdoria that activate under similar conditions and have the same
effect. |
 |
Umbral Horror Refresh
Anime Normal Spell
Select 1 face-up monster whose current ATK is different than its
original ATK. Its ATK becomes its original ATK and you gain Life
Points equal to the change in ATK.

It can help if your otherwise strong monster is
drained of most or all of its ATK but that doesn't happen too often and
that's literally the only use for this card. |
 |
Magical Tomb
Anime Continuous Spell
Choose 1 card from your opponent's Deck and place it underneath this
card, then shuffle your opponent's Deck. During the End Phase of the
turn this card is removed from the field, add the card that was
underneath this card to your opponent's hand.

Vector may have used it to get Yuma's Barian
card but since there's nothing to gain by using this, you're wasting
Deck space with it. |

Devoted Love
Anime Quick-Play Spell
Activate only during your opponent's Battle Phase. End the Battle
Phase, then your opponent draws 1 card. At the End Phase of this
turn, your Life Points become 0.

What's the point of this? The only thing you get
out of it is a stopped Battle Phase and even that can be achieved
without either of this card's side-effects. |

Upgrade
Normal Trap
Tribute 1 Xyz Monster. Special Summon 1 Xyz Monster from your
Graveyard. It gains 600 ATK and it cannot be destroyed by card
effects.

The +600 ATK probably won't add much and you
lose an Xyz Monster to get any of the card's effects but the effects
aren't all that bad. |

Xyz Move
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only during your opponent's Battle Phase. Select 1 face-up
Xyz Monster you control. Give control of that monster to your
opponent, then end the Battle Phase.

Using this means you're exceptionally desperate
because not only did you give your opponent all your hard work but they
can do with it what they will and you may not see that Xyz Monster on
the field again for a long time. |

Xyz Coat
Anime Normal Trap
Select 1 face-up Xyz Monster on the field. This turn, it cannot be
destroyed by battle or by card effects.

Xyz Monsters typically take more work to bring
out than Main Deck monsters and thus can use any protection they can
get. This card helps provide them protection from destruction but only
for one turn. |

effect. Halve that damage, then you take damage equal to the halved
amount.

Even if this is being used in a Tag Team Duel,
it doesn't help your team if you decide to take the effect damage over
your team mate given that you'll probably lose if one of you loses. |

Southern Stars

Select 1 face-up monster on the field that has a Level. Its Level
becomes 10.

A relatively simple card and it works on any
monster to either Xyz Summon or boost the ATK of monsters that use
Levels like The Calculator. |

Unsinkable Titanica
WATER / Machine / Level 10 / ATK 2800 / DEF 3000
Once per turn, you can destroy 1 face-up monster with 0 DEF on the
field and inflict damage to your opponent equal to half the
destroyed monster's ATK on the field.

It can't do a whole lot while on the field but
that 3000 DEF will help out a bit and it does have uses with Unshaven
Angler. |
