Hello Pojo Fans,
Looking again at Waboku, a card that's existed since
the original starter decks, and remains an awesome
Trap Card.
Simple, cost-free, Normal Trap Card to use. Activate
it whenever and your monsters can't die from battle
and you don't take battle damage that turn. Use it
on your turn offensively, crashing a monster of
equal ATK into another, or use it on your turn to
protect your monsters from battle destruction or
against a direct attack. It remains an awesome Trap
Card to use in any deck that deems it worthy of a
slot.
Advanced- 4/5

We did this a little while back, but we decided to
revisit it for Yugi week. Waboku.
Waboku prevents your monsters from being destroyed
by battle and you take no damage this turn. The card
sees major play in stall decks that have an
alternate win condition, which aren't too
competitive, but otherwise it isn't necessary for
other decks. The card is meh.
Sorry this review is super short, but I said
everything about this card a few weeks ago that I
felt I needed to say and this is just a short
summary of what it does.
Advanced Rating: 2/5 |

Moving to the non-Spellcaster part of our week, we
come to Waboku. I think we only saw this used
in the original anime once. Used in a rare
duel appearance by Tea, in her brief duel against
Mai, after Yugi loses to Kaiba in Duelist Kingdom.
Waboku is very old, but still good, just perhaps not
as relevant as it use to be. Many other Traps,
and even Monsters, can do similar to what Waboku
does (or slightly different, or better) but that
doesn't make Waboku bad. Protection is good.
Not taking Damage is good, as is not having your
Monsters be destroyed. In my opinion, it's all
about personal preference. If you like this
card, and/or it works for you, then by all means,
use it. At the very least it can be a nice
Side option, and can be a useful tool in thwarting
OTK/FTK too.
