not sure whats funnier, the golden eggwich getting it’s own card, or the 200 LP cost it has
I think it is a tag force reference
Dark World Support
Gold Pride Support?
Pot of Greed for multi-attribute decks, or Dark World Dealings for mono-attribute decks
And if course, handtraps make this live T2
Slightly better then darkworld dealings, albeit it is OPT, it avoids having your opponent also draw
Fabled support
I forgot did Drawbread cost 200 dp in Tag Force? Also we should totally get Blue-Eyes Mountain Coffee ☕️ as a card in the future.
They’re 50 DP each in tag force iirc
Duel Academia’s cafeteria charges 200 yen.
It costs 50DP in the first Tag Force, then 200DP in subsequent games starting from Tag Force 2.
This is… actually very damn good? Both modes have their uses in specific decks, and getting the wrong one is not an end of the world.
Unless something in the game will change this will end being limited or even potentially banned in the future. This is dangerously close to PoG.
Id say this card has enough restrictions to not be banned or limmited
It sure as hell is usefull, but its random nature, danger, and opt restriction balance it out again (think about why upstart goblin is limited, a single use of that card is not a problem).
Id say this card is similar to that chalice card which is basically pot of greed on a coinflip (which nobody plays since even a 50/50 chance isnt enough for an effect like that).
Also you missed the third mode of this card
It becomes an upstart goblin when you dont hit a monster

If you are talking about Cup of Ace, nobody plays it because if you fail the coin toss your opponent draws 2 cards instead.
To the person in the responses saying upstart is limited: it’s not. It’s been at 3.
This is not good, statistically this will whiff far too much to be worth it. If you like gambling this much don’t wuss out with dark world dealings being the worst outcome, just play cup of ace.
What are the parameters of this statistic you are claiming?
You’re beyond wrong.
Statistically this will succeed more often than not because obviously you’ll build your deck to maximize chances of one option over another. And even the “bad” effect is actually damn okay. Some decks (DW, fabled) will play it just as additional copies of DWD because DWD with a slight chance to turn into PoG is just that good for them.
Yea obviously it’ll succeed more often than it’ll fail in the decks its played, but that doesn’t make it worth it. The card having just a 20% chance to be dark world dealings is incredibly detrimental, dark world dealings is okay in specific decks, but this isn’t significantly better than dark world dealings in those decks. It won’t always discard which can actively be a detriment in dark world and fabled. If cup of ace had an 80% chance of landing on heads it wouldn’t be good, because the problem is not the exact percentage but just the fact you do need to gamble on a card working. Requiring set up also makes it much too conditional.
While its true that additional randomness is bad, this card does everything to mitigate the problem with that
What exactly the likelyhood of the card succing is is entirely dependant on your gamestate and deck, and there are even a bunch of ways which can guarantee a certain kind of hit, or not hit for the effect, anything from only running different monster types in your deck, quick effect gy manipulation, and stacking your deck. This card is extremely versatile, and both usefull to gain more advantage when everything in your hand is bad, or as a extention card once you can afford the risk, or have already set up for this card to be effective
Also dont forget this cards strongest trick, the third mode
If you dont hit any monster its just a straight up upstart goblin, so you can use this card in many kinds of decks, and just go neutral in most cases
Also the problem with cup of ace isnt its randomness, it is its expected card value
a 50% chance to lose it (-1) and have the opponent draw 2 (-2) (-3 in total) outweighs the benefit of winning, which still looses the card itself (-1) and you drawing 2 cards (+2) (+1 in total)
The total card advantage of the card (50% of -3 is -1.5, and 50% of +1 is +0.5, adding up to -1) is just negative
In your “80% chance of winning” example the odds would be signifficantly different (20% of -3 is 0.6, and 80% of +1 is +0.8, adding up to +0.2), and would barely justify running 3, since using the card would be a net win, and the chances in play arent outrageously low (succeeding wtih a 80% chance of success 3 times in a row is roughtly 50%, basically allowing you to run 3 pog in your deck in 50% of all duells, and even if you dont get into all of them, the fewer of them you use, the higher the total chance of all of them succeeding, so if you stop after you got all cards you need, you have a really broken card on your hands)
After all that training under a waterfall I keep drawing combo filler instead of a removal spell ahh save me doron
Wow lol I can’t believe how many ignorant takes there on here with people saying this card is good.
If you think this card is good then just play 3 upstart goblin and pot of desires too. Also people keep saying oh ya just put this card in a deck that quick effect a monster out of the graveyard in response to the spells activation as if that is something commonly doable by decks. I can’t name any and im sure they can’t name any either or else they would have. Unless your playing idk the ishizu fairys in a tear deck idk. Also you can’t really change your deck around to get around the drawback of the spell. Every deck plays 3 ash which is 3 fire attribute. Or you might play 3 of another handtrap. Or 3 of your starter monster etc. No matter what you might draw an attribute you have in GY and making your deck weaker to make it be able to benefit from a draw spell mitigated the gain from adding said draw spell. You guys are silly. There’s like 1 or 2 you who know what your talking about and the rest are ganging up on them for being right lol
Simply put: This card will suck in 90% of all decks with the few exceptions basically needing to play 80% monsters and either A) have a very diverse attribute distribution or B) love discarding a card.
I could see Dark World liking it and there might be P.U.N.K. piles that can use it as well, but for most decks it’s a more conditional Upstart Goblin that gives your opponent knowledge of what you drew. So not good enough.
Most decks play a lot of monsters traps r useless and not everyone plays spells “Mermail ” the question is is your opponent willing to take the risk and save the ash ?
Thats the funny thing about this card, it doesnt become useless if you dont run all monsters
If it hits a non-monster it just acts like a upstart goblin and replaces itself, which doesnt cause you to loose out on a card (and the 200 lp are negligable)
This card wont be playable in every single deck, but decks which have more random attributes than uniform ones can just slot 1 copy of this card in, get advantage of it once every 10 duells, dont get a real drawback most other duells, and have to discard a card of their choice every 40 duells
This card wont be worth paying large bucks for, but it gives the right decks juuust that little bit of advantage which justifies playing 1 copy or so, at least when going first
I rarely say this about Gx references, but pretty good ngl.
Imagine building your deck around worse conditional pot of desires or if you go for the discard worse dark world dealings. You could play good cards instead or if you have to build your entire deck around a normal spell it coukd be one that at least wins you the game if it resolves like Grass
And thats why you dont build you whole deck around this card
Do you build your whole deck around the other pot cards you put in there? Nope, you at most adjust the ratio of 1 or 2 other cards in the deck
Same with this card, you can easily slot it into speciffic decks (not all), and at most adjust them a little bit
@Ayo You…don’t have to do that.

Nah, it’s pay. Doesn’t trigger Dimonno.
I believe the translation here is slightly off. The OCG text doesn’t specify the attribute being “Different from the monsters in your GY”, it only checks for if the attribute doesn’t exist among the monsters in your GY. This is an important distinction because if you remove the last monster from your GY in response to this card’s activation according to the OCG text it would just be pot of greed, but according to this translation it would draw 1 and then fizzle the second effect as neither could resolve due to the monster in hand not being the same or a different attribute from those in grave.
A funny addition to my gamble deck!
Pretty good in Super Quants, especially when you can manage what attributes you have in the GY with Blue Layer. Thanks Konami
A fun callback that’s potentially also quite handy in the right decks (I’m gonna test it in Vanquish soul myself) to boot? I like it.
I can see this Card working in “Fable” or “Dark World” Archetype.
A easy to manipulate card which is either a one sided dark world dealings, upstart goblin, or pot of greed…
Id say it has a lot of popential. It might not get as much play as some of the newer pot cards, but there are definitely a bunch of decks which might want to play this card, especially ones whichc an manipulate the top of the deck or gy (especially at a quick effect)
What happens if I drew a spell or trap card instead of a monster ?
They you just payed 200 LP to replace Drawbread in your hand with the top card of your deck.
It’s just an upstart then
This card is so funny!
