- Draw Phase - |
It's Maxx "C". You let that fire whenever you get the chance to. At worst, you get 1-2 draws off the Branded player setting up a play during your turn, but it's a much less usable board. At best, you're drawing 5-10 cards and draw into additional handtraps. | Great | View Edit |

| Dark World | Don't do it unless you have Droll & Lock Bird in the deck. Otherwise they will deck out you. | Bad | View Edit | |
| Dracotail | Maxx C on Dracotail only makes draw 1 (maybe 2) at most | Weak | View Edit | |
| Enneacraft | During Draw Phase |
Enneacraft needs to fill their board as much as possible, and they need to Special Summon to do so. A full Enneacraft board will net you 4 draws (a good Enneacraft player will normal set their final card). | Great | View Edit |
| Fire King | As soon as possible |
Well it's Maxx "C", you're gonna get at least two cards if they set up a small board, even more if they think the link plays are worthy. But it doesn't completely force a turn skip. | Usable | View Edit |
| Ghoti |
Level 2 Ghoti Monsters' SS effect from banish zone (On Standby) Be careful when using it on the Ghoti player's turn. | Ghoti monsters tend to be Summoned more often during the opponent's turn than during its controller's turn. | Usable | View Edit |
| Gimmick Puppet | ASAP |
Very swingy. You either can't actually use the resources you draw in the next turn (you get FTK'd) or it's game over for the opponent on the spot if you happen to draw a non-monster handtrap at the right time. Depends wildly on your deckbuilding. | Usable | View Edit |
| Mermail Atlantean | As soon as possible | Maxx C help draw to other hand trap to prevent hanloop. | Great | View Edit |
| Odion | Prefer in your SP if they go first |
- Good to use in your turn, after opponent setup, because will probably get 2 draws from - If using in MP, they will chain their Trap monsters, lessen the card you draw (the Trap only can be activated in the MP) | Usable | View Edit |

| Ragnaraika |
As soon as possible after resolving |
Most Ragnaraika monsters are Special Summoned without starting a Chain. Since this theme performs many Special Summons, and Link Summon is also required to activate its Trap Cards, Maxx "C" is extremely effective. | Great | View Edit |

| Sky Striker |
Sky Striker will massively struggle to break boards going 2nd if you draw into non-engine cards using Maxx "C". As they need to special summon multiple times to access their resources. | Great | View Edit | |
| Tenyi | As early as possible | It can stop any unnecessary extension into other forms of interaction | Great | View Edit |
| Trickstar |
|
Be very, very careful about activating it. A burn-focused Trickstar deck will take full advantage of your draws by summoning 2-3 Lycoris and FTK you. However, modern lists usually only play 0-1 Lycoris now, since she produces no extra field presence for Link plays. If you know your opponent is on Lycoris, don't use it or be cautious. If the Trickstar player searches Hoody with Candina, you're safer to use it. | Bad | View Edit |
| Umi | As soon as possible | You will still get one draw more than likely, but the option exists that the can normal summon one and pass | Usable | View Edit |

| Yubel | Use it whenever you feel it's appropriate (Draw Phase is the best). | Successfully resolving the effect of this card will give you a 90% chance of winning against Yubel. | Great | View Edit |
| Yummy | As soon as possible |
Yummy can set up a reasonable fiend under Maxx C (Snatchy + a Level 1 and pass, Surprise set is 2-4 interruptions - Cooky Way flip, Acroquey pop, Cooky pop / Lollipo banish, Surprise bounce). Also they should often have 2-3 handtraps to back it up. | Usable | View Edit |
