From YGOCounter


Dominus Purge


Trap Normal

If your opponent controls a card, you can activate this card from your hand. When a card or effect is activated that includes an effect that adds a card(s) from the Deck to the hand: Negate that effect, then if you have a Trap in your GY, destroy that card. If you activated this card from your hand, you cannot activate the effects of DARK, WATER, and FIRE monsters for the rest of this Duel. You can only activate 1 "Dominus Purge" per turn.

Negate search/draw, then if you have a Trap in your GY, destroy that card

Tips:
  • Being an actual hand Trap Card, this card cannot be negated by Called by the Grave.
  • This card can be search in specific Trap oriented like Labrynth.

Enneacraft - Atori.MAR Enneacraft The second level 1 pendulum scale effect.

Most Enneacraft players, if they do not already have access to Enneacraft Reverth Enneacraft Reverth, will use their second search to grab Reverth to free up their pendulum zones for the next round of level 1s and get Reverth in GY. This forces their scales to stay on the field and cuts them off any more searches unless they have opened Enneapolis Enneapolis.

- Left Arm Offering Left Arm Offering banishes for cost, shutting it down prevents the opponent from searching Reasoning Reasoning / Monster Gate Monster Gate / That Grass Looks Greener That Grass Looks Greener while making sure they have no cards left in hand

- Similarly, Performapal Popperup Performapal Popperup discards for cost, shutting it down deals a heavy blow to the opponent as they will have much less resources to use for their subsequent mulligan cards

- Card Destruction Card Destruction, Void Reignition Void Reignition and Performapal Popperup Performapal Popperup are their typical mulligan cards, depending on the opponent's hand, these might be the only play they have.

3. Supreme King Gate Magician Supreme King Gate Magician monster effect or Wings of Light Wings of Light

4. Star Pendulumgraph Star Pendulumgraph, Duelist Alliance Duelist Alliance or Pendulum Evolution

Pendulum Evolution search effect

1. Searches key cards such as Wisdom-Eye Magician Wisdom-Eye Magician and Supreme King Gate Magician Supreme King Gate Magician

2. They could be searching for a missing Pendulum Scale. Negating Beyond the Pendulum Beyond the Pendulum means they can still activate monster effects and the effects of cards in their Pendulum Zones aren't negated before Pendulum Summoning

Sky Striker Ace = Zero Sky Striker

Sky Striker Mobilize - Engage! Sky Striker Mobilize - Engage!

Sky Striker Ace - Zero

Sky Striker Ace - Zero

Very solid 1-for-1 trade on both Sky Striker Mobilize - Engage! Sky Striker Mobilize - Engage!, Sky Striker Ace - Zero Sky Striker Ace - Zero, preventing the player from acquiring card advantage.

Can also be used on Sky Striker Ace - Shizuku Sky Striker Ace - Shizuku in the End Phase if they have no other play available.

If you have both Dominus Impulse Dominus Impulse and Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring in hand, using Dominus Impulse first is better as Ash Blossom can be saved for the Tribute effect of Sky Striker Ace - Zero Sky Striker Ace - Zero. You also avoid activating the conditions for cards such as Triple Tactics Talent Triple Tactics Talent and Triple Tactics Thrust Triple Tactics Thrust which are common cards in Sky Striker decks.

- Deception of the Sinful Spoils

Deception of the Sinful Spoils

Shotgunning into White Forest cards is not a bad idea especially against Silvy of the White Forest Silvy of the White Forest and Witch of the White Forest Witch of the White Forest.

(note 1) tldr: purging Tales of the White Forest Tales of the White Forest is good before the first synchro summon.

If Tales of the White Forest Tales of the White Forest was played before other searchers by summoning a spellcaster or an illusion monster first, purging here is decent as there's a good chance the opponent doesn't have another White Forest starter. After the first synchro, White Forest usually have the search power to not be that impacted by a purge.

Stopping Elzette, Azamina of the White Forest Elzette, Azamina of the White Forest , WANTED: Seeker of Sinful Spoils WANTED: Seeker of Sinful Spoils or Deception of the Sinful Spoils Deception of the Sinful Spoils will deny the access into The Hallowed Azamina The Hallowed Azamina and makes it much more difficult to end on a Saint Azamina Saint Azamina, which is a decent endboard piece and will extends the play further.

(note 2) Elzette, Azamina of the White Forest Elzette, Azamina of the White Forest can be, and usually are chain blocked by the Diabell, Queen of the White Forest Diabell, Queen of the White Forest or Rciela, Sinister Soul of the White Forest Rciela, Sinister Soul of the White Forest synchro effect.
