Dark Bribe is a card that has
gotten a lot of attention and focus this Format,
both positive and negative.
Some see this card as the poor man's Solemn
Judgment...others see this as the NEW Solemn
Judgment.
Let's take a look at that.
Dark Bribe is a Counter Trap that
negates the activation and effect of an opponent's
Magic or Trap card and destroys.
As a secondary effect, your opponent Draws
one card.
As a general rule of thumb, except in strange
Decks, or on the turn you are about to win, your
opponent Drawing because of something you did, is
not a good thing.
However, here, that is
meaningless.
Dark Bribe is one of those cards that only
gets better as the Duel goes along.
You know your opponent is waiting to throw
something on you, and you stop it.
They get to Draw one card?
Big deal.
While Solemn Judgment can also
negate the summon of a Monster, and it does require
a cost, being half your Lifeponits, as opposed to
your opponent merely being able to Draw...well, we
aren't comparing the two...that sounds like
something I need to do in detail in an article.
