[yugioh-puns]

“Traptrix” is a portmanteau of trap, tricks, and -trix (a feminine agent suffix). This name reflects the monsters’ focus on activating “Trap Hole” Trap Cards, and appropriately, these monsters are named after ambush predators and carnivorous plants.

New video time! This one is about Yugioh archetypes based around trap cards, which tend to be viewed as the worst of the big trio of cards (monsters, spells, traps), so do these archetypes have the speed or control to show why traps are so cool, or are they just gimmicks like many other Yugioh decks?

It’s Format Friday!

Good Morning, Duelists! It’s me, Luna, the Duel Reporter and it’s Friday, March 31, 2023! Today, I’d like to bring attention a way to play Yu-Gi-Oh that you might not have tried. As I’ve stated more than a few times in this blog, I think Yu-Gi-Oh is a fantastic game, and there’s a near infinite amount of ways to play it.

Well, today, I’d like to start with one of my favorites, it’s a Time Wizard format that is a bit under the radar. Allow me to introduce you to HAT Format.

What is HAT Format?

HAT Format is a Yu-Gi-Oh format based on the cards legal in early July, 2014, also meaning it’s Master Rule 2, meaning there are no Extra Monster Zones, the player going first gets to draw a card, their can only be one Field Spell at a time, and the latest product releases were Primal Origin and the Lightsworn Structure Deck.

The name HAT comes from one of the best decks in the format, Hand Artifact Traptrix, a powerful control deck that revolved around a completely reactionary control base, using Traptrix monsters to Xyz Summon and set Trap Holes, Fire Hand and Ice Hand to pop monsters and spell/traps respectively, and Artifacts, which can react on being destroyed to do a myriad of things, but, primarily stun a turn to summon monsters and destroy cards without targeting, which was a huge deal back in 2014.

That being said, HAT wasn’t the only good deck in HAT Format, as the format has a myriad of powerful decks in it! Infernity returns to the format as a strong DARK Xyz deck, Madolche and Evilswarm are powerful Rank 4 decks, Hieratic, Sylvan, and Mermail provide an easy way to climb into high level and high rank plays!

HAT Format mostly uses the April 2014 banlist, which can be found here: https://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/forbidden_limited.action?forbiddenLimitedDate=2014-04-01

Here are my personal decks, if you want to get a good starting place for HAT!

Hieratic Rulers

Here’s Hieratic Rulers, it’s a powerful combo deck that has a strong going first or second game that can build huge boards and occasionally OTK, depending on your build. I personally play mine as a toolbox of Dragon Ranks, but, I’ve played against a few people who play more into the Synchros, the Rank 6’s and the Rank 7’s.

Hieratic Dragons tribute each other to swarm and activate effects, and when they do get tributed, they summon a Normal Dragon from hand/deck/GY, making Synchro, Xyz and Dragon Ruler set ups easy!

Here’s the link to my deck on Dueling Nexus!

Evilswarm

Evilswarm is a really fun, really strong control deck that revolves around using the Rank 4 toolbox as a control tool to limit and restrict your opponent’s resources as much as possible before swinging for the kill.

I hope that this article has inspired some Duelists to check out HAT Format!

Gonna do this

Make a budget traptrix deck

[xx-invadr-ellie-xx]

I don't get the hate Traptrix get's for their card art. Like the characters don't even look that young imo and there are plenty of other archetypes with actual child characters in them like Witchcrafter and nobody cares. I dunno I feel like the whole thing is just massively overblown and I feel sorry for people that play the deck getting this unfair stigma around them. Let people play the decks they like without judging them for the art, they just wanna play the game, they aren't like jerking off to their cards at locals.

Considering the theming of Traptrix should Konami make an anus-themed "Hole" trap?

No.

[gimmick-puppet-egg-head]

I’m super happy for Traptrix, this is a deck I’ve always wanted to build for a while… they seem so interesting concept wise, and it’ll give me something else to play other then pure Solfachord 😭😭😭

I just need to build it lol
