Check out my Pot of Desires video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ipyErLyjrru5kYU.html

“You never saw this coming! *I SUMMON POT OF GREED!* “

I love how they found like 20 different ways to explain Pot of Greed's effect

I love the way Kaiba so elegantly draws his cards

Pot of Greed always smiling cause he's the only one that knows what he does

"I activate pot of greed, you know what that means" "Yes so please don't expl-" "I get to draw two more cards from my deck" "Goddammit"

0:56 That animation with Kaiba sliding his fingers across his Main Deck for +2 cards. Solid. 🤟

Protagonist: *is losing* Protagonist: *draws pot of greed* Protagonist: *immediately wins dual afterwards*

I like how some of these come from the same duel, meaning they explained how it works after someone else had already finished explaining how it works

3:23 “This allows me to take 2 cards from my deck and add them to my hand.” See this is why Atem is the GOAT. Due to the wording of his description, he changed Pot of Greed’s effect from a simple draw 2 into the most broken search card in existence. Put some respect in his name. 👍

I greatly appreciate how in the last one Yugi says "and you know what that means" and proceeds to explain it anyway

Judge Man: "Bet you wish you drew this card, Joseph!" Joey: "Just give it a moment and I will. Everyone does eventually."

It was an honor to help those Characters winning their battles

I like how at the beginning it’s like “oh no the scary antagonist has drawn this super strong unknown card.” But then by like halfway all the main characters and protagonists are spamming pot of greed after they found out how busted it was.

After rewatching this video for the 8th time and taking extensive notes, I think I'm finally getting a basic idea of what pot of greed does!

I love how they always pick up 2 cards at once,no more, no less, every time without fail

*Pot of Greed gets banned* Everyone in the series: YOU MONSTER!!!

0:05 Love how he also has a Pot of Greed in Attack Position. Really shows the versatility of the card as a spellcard and a monstercard, as many of us were confused as to how complex the cardeffexttext was. oh wait..

Doomsday scenarios: -Supervolcano -World war 3 -Plague -Someone playing Pot of Greed and drawing two cards without uttering a word.

no one gonna talk about how smooth kaiba drew those 2 cards at 1:00?

Wow. They actually explain it almost every single time.

Thank God they explain its effect, it's so bloody complicated.

Okay, can we just appreciate how respectful the duelists are to their opponent by explaining the effect of Pot of Greed each time?

1:26 Alister straight up drawing three cards, what a rebel

I love how pot of greed has such a simple ability but is really powerful

In case you people still don't know what pot of greed does: It targets the top 2 cards from your main deck, and moves them from that place to the rightmost spot in your hand, adding the topmost card of your deck into your hand first and adding the 2nd card to the right of that one, assuming the 1nd card still exists at that point, if it doesn't the 2nd card just goes to the rightmost spot in your hand. If no 2 valid cards could be targetted in your deck, you "deck out" instead, meaning you lose the duel. Yes I just explained literally 3 words with like 3 sentences worth of words. Edit: after 9 months this comment has over a thousand likes chill out you guys

i love how they felt the need to explain what it does every single time lmfao

I'm glad the anime explained this card so many times, people had a lot of trouble understanding it

Just in case you didn't know, Pot of Greed let's you draw two cards.

I love how Kaiba was the only one that activated Pot of Greed 3 times in a row 😂

Makes sense that they explain it every time. Not every viewer watching the show knows what every card does and different people start at different episodes. So I love how they explain what’s going on for people who aren’t familiar with Yugioh so they can follow along.

Fun fact: In the Manga, pot of greed was only used once during yugi's and kaiba's duel at the battle city semi-finals

My favourite part of this video is the characters explaining what it does to opponents who already used the same card in the same duel and explained its effect to them at the time.

Player 1 : I active the Pot of Greed magic card and you know what that means Player 2: yeah I have been playing this game for years so let’s skip the introductions Player 1: NEVER Player 2: oh god no🫣 Player 1: Pot of greed allows me to draw two cards from the top of my deck and place them directly in my hands just like that

Pot of Greed: [Normal Spell] By activating this card you can draw a card then immediately draw another card again. Place the drawn cards onto your hand in any order you wish. After activating this card by placing it face down on your duel disk, and when the effects of Pot of Greed has been resolved, magically cut the animation frame to where the card is not visible and presumably in the GY. Thou shalt not draw 3 cards. Once the 2nd card is drawn by Pot of Greed's effect you may not draw any more cards due to Pot of Greed. Neither shalt thou draw 1 card unless you then proceed to 2. If you cannot draw the specified amount of cards this card effect conveys, being the number of 2, you lose the duel before its effects are resolved.

I activate the magic card Pot of Greed! It allows me to… wait, hold on, let me check the rule book

I appreciate the different physical gestures they animate for drawing the two cards.

If anybody has tried writing a duel from the Duel Monsters era, you'll find very quickly that a player can run out of resources very quickly because the game is very slow and resource intensive in this time period. Pot of Greed is essentially a way for the writer to get a character back into the game easily without having to get into draw-pass-draw-pass repetition, which is boring. In fact, this is pretty much why _all_ draw effects exist. (Card of Sanctity, anyone?) In other words, Pot of Greed exists for narrative purposes, not to be a fair card.

I find it hilarious that they have to explain the card. Every. Single. TIME. And sometimes in the same duel. 🤣

1:19 NOOO THE POOR CARDS YOU'RE BENDING THEM

I never realized how often Kaiba actually activated this card. It’s cool tho since as a corporate leader he Is in fact the most greedy of them

1:29 He drew 3 cards.

The REAL reason part of greed got banned was because people kept overexplaining it

Zigfried and Yugi: "you know what that means" Me, crying from the torture: Yes, I do. Please, make it stop!

They forgot the times in duelist kingdom where Yami Yugi says “I activate my Pot of Greed magic card! This allows me to take 2 cards from the top of my deck and add them to my hand!”

“I SUMMON POT OF GREED TO DRAW 3 ADDITIONAL CARDS FROM MY DECK!” “That’s not what it does”

Pot of Greed feels like a developer in-joke for KaibaCorp. Like Pot of Greed was the card they used to test all spell card interactions and, as a result, they had to read the rules over and over to ensure the system was working as intended. As a result, everyone in KC knows Pot of Greed by heart, but they all pretend they don't because they have to check the ruling anyways and they have to idiot-proof the system. "Gee, Bill, how does this card interact with spells?" "I don't know, Bob. Lemme play this one, and see how it resolves." "Gee, Bill, what card is that?" "It's Pot of Greed, Bob. I'm playing Pot of Greed." "Gee, Bill, what does Pot of Greed do?" "Two cards, Bob. Pot of Greed lets me draw two more cards." "Gee, Bill. That sure sounds powerful. How's it interacting with the new monster." "Doin' fine, Bob. Pot of Greed's doin' juusst fine."

I love how in the Judge vs Joey match, they explained it twice in the same duel

I like to think that this is just one obscenely large duel

Hold on wait I’m confused. Does pot of greed let you draw two cards or draw twice?

I love how the animation improves whenever Kaiba is the one activating it. Screw the others he has money

1:46 I love how aggressively he says it

"You already know what it does right?" **Proceeds to explain what it does

Its interesting how many different ways they can draw two cards, but Kaiba really shows of with how he drew early on, but later, he lost a lot of his flair.

Thank God they remind us each time. I don't know if I could remember such a complicated card effects

Guys, I've been trying to figure this one out for ages. What does the Pot of Greed card do. My friends don't know, discription on the card isn't clear enough and the anime makes no attempt to explain it either...

Man these cards must be custom sized Look at the size change of them in each clip

I love how they make Pot of Greed sound like the biggest threat when in reality they just draw 2 more cards.

"Now I activate pot of greed!" "oh boy..." "Its a magic card" "yes I know what it does" "It allows me to draw two new cards from my deck!" "yes..." "Greed is good!"

Yes Yugi, we know what that means.

You Forgot, That Yugi Used It Against Kaiba At Battle City

Effect: If you can describe this card's effect slightly differently than the last player to activate it, draw 2 cards.

chazz is one of the few people to not say the effect of pot of greed, chazz it up

I didn’t know they drew this card so many times in the show!

Lmao I like how they explain the most simple card everytime its played

"Letting me draw twice" what a rebel

My favorite thing about this video is how they keep drawing from the deck. Sometimes it's one at a time, other times it both at once. My absolute favorite is 1:13. So smooth.

i like how when Marik uses it, the actual pot comes out. It's so unnecessary but it's a nice visual.

I love how at least twice even the characters are like “oh come on, you should know what it does by now!”

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHAT DOES IT DO?!?!?!

I do love the animation of Kaiba going through his deck until he gets to the top 2

0:57 kaiba encapsulates the use of pot of greed by activating it and flipping us off aswell

Funny thing is on Joey vs Judgeman. Joey immediately played pot of greed after Judgeman just used it last turn and he still needs to explain what pot of greed does.

Tbh it makes sense they have to explain card before activating them. Because there's so much distance between the players that it's impossible for the opponent to read your card details. I'm sure it's a system that forces you to state what you are activating. Like you could always hide an effect, but you have to declare the effect details whenever you are activating it. Makes sense when you understand that there's a big distance between the players and they can't just take a look at the card effects from the standpoint.

They should really work on a laughter sound effect for pot of greed’s activation at all times

you know pot of greed is op when every character in the show ran it

I think the joey one at 1:24 is how it's should have been done most of the time, he says what it does without overexplaining it

THAT'S how that works! I had no idea!

I think the reason why they explain it so much is because they want it to be second nature for newcomers and regulars alike to know what this and other cards activate when placed on the field.

Now I understand what the runawayguys were talking about

When Pharaoh continued with "...and add them to my hand!", I had the urge to question my entire life... 😂

I like how they explain its effect every time they activate it but never explain the effect of other cards

Kaiba is real smooth when he draws 2 cards thanks to the effect of his Pot of Greed, which allows him to draw 2 cards.

I wasnt paying attention. What does *The Magic Card, Pot of Greed* do???

Funny thing is: I STILL don’t know what pot of greed does

pot of greed is actually a great card because it lets you draw two cards from your deck

I love how Pot of Greed made them looks smart despite being such a straightforward and borderline stupid card

The way they’re bending their sleeveless cards is stressing me out

Now I know why Pot of Greed is tournament banned. People were getting sick of finding new ways to explain that they could draw 2 more cards.

I love how Bakura started both of his card games in the final arc by playing Pot of Greed XD

Wow all these people don't know how pot of greed, obviously you summon it to draw 3 additional cards from your deck, it's just what it do

I love for one to explain the effect like "Now witness as I now can draw 2 new magic rectangular pieces of flat paper with text from my deck to my hand." Just to see how many ways you explain this very simple card.

Actually, most of them explained the effect wrong. Most of them stated that "this card lets me" or "now i can" but in problem solving card text, can is the term for an optional effect. And pot of greed is not an optional effect. You have to draw 2.

as a MTG player who knew how OP this card was long before most yugioh players knew, I was convinced from the very beginning of this card that it was just invented to make for more interesting duels in the tv show

This video was really well done editing. Also great comedic timing on some of the scenes.

I'm sorry can you please repeat that? What does Pot of Greed do again?

You missed one. "Next I activate the magic card Pot of Greed, and you know what that means, Slifer's attack points now rise to 5 thousand!"

They must have thought Pot of Greed's effect would be the most difficult to remember seeing as how they felt compelled to explain it a bajillion freakin' times.

I find it hilarious that little Yugi is the only one that’s like “You know what this does already” instead of just strictly explaining the card’s use like everybody else. Lol

This means that in the canon of yugioh pot of greed is a staple? XD
