Dark Trap Hole closes out our week, and when your opponent Special Summons two or more monsters face-up, the monsters are all sent to the Graveyard. Then, any monster(s) of the same name from your opponent's Hand and/or Deck to the Graveyard.

All right, this really isn't a bad effect, although the fact that you can only use this on a swarm, and they aren't removed, kinda sucks. Anyway, this is likely going to be on something powerful, likely Synchro monsters, but I don't see this as any real answer to anything.

Ratings:

Traditional: 1.75/5
Advanced: 2.75/5
Art: 5/5

Dark Trap Hole

Hello all, I'm back from my brief hiatus to give you more reviews on Yu-Gi-Oh! cards! My return review seems like it was released a bit late to the party. Dark Trap Hole is a Normal Trap that is pretty powerful if you can actually activate it, but... that's not very likely. It was already quite a "hit or miss" card, but the most recent Forbidden & Limited List totally removed the need for this card. Rescue Cat? Gone. Infernity Launcher? Limited. The only other commonly played cards this works against are Rekindling, Return from the Different Dimension, Gottoms' Emergency Call, and Infernity Mirage. Overall, it's probably more efficient to just use Bottomless Trap Hole or Torrential Tribute against these. It does make for a funny side deck choice against Superancient Deepseaking Coelocanth.

In Traditional, it does have uses against Cyber Jar or Dimension Fusion, but again I think there are better answers.

Traditional: 1/5
Advanced: 2/5
Art: 3/5 Those Airbellums deserved it! Not sure about the Sea Koalas though...
