in my area there are so many people complaining about this card and i just wonder if it would be in the next bans. Do u think this card deserves to be limited or even banned?

If you run more then one if these unless it's an exodia deck then you don't know what your'e doing. Most people will only play one since it is a very dead draw first turn hand.

Hmm... It is good but banworthy? Nope. A few Kycoos and soul release can make that card a really bad topdeck and dead draw. Although it was abused in SJC, I think everyone has learned from that tournament and will be well prepared for the Chaos-FCC decks using POA. It's not Like Pot of greed where you get advantage with no activation cost or requirements beside having 2 cards in deck lol.

Even though pot of avarice has been out for a month or two, to me it doesn't really seem worthy to be banned from the game. :)

:eek: Liminted to 1 is fine, but no ban. this card is a must after the pot was taken out and if you haven't noticed, it does need 5 monsters in the grave to activate the card. I use it but I am setup to loose the ability to use more then 1 already. everyone else should do the same. :p

It needs time to mature. We'll have a better understanding of it in about 2 months.

Why limit or restrict it? Anyone who plays more than 1 should punch themselves in the face. <_<;

i play, or should i say abuse poa in my soul control and it works perfectly. i still don't think it's even restriction worthy, though.

yeah that's true.
In it's own deck type then yes it can be run in 2... every where else it should be one. It's a lame watered down crap card.
I guess if people where you play are complaing about the card they must not be very good dueliest since this cards is so easily dealt with...

Fool. Check the deck in my signature. Abuses the PoA and hasn't lost yet it playtesting. In the right deckit is abusive, but not limit worthy me-thinks.

Not even.
Now, given the fact that you return 5 cards to your deck, it means a -5 in Top Deck Mode. However, since you get to draw 2, it reduces into -3 (TDM).

Yeah.. I don't care about your deck.
Any deck can be made to abuse multiple PoA, but guess what? So much of the deck will be put towards abusing it that after abusing it you'll have drained yourself to the extent that using more than one would be pointless.

PoA is the exact opposite of PoG, what i mean by this is whereas with PoG you should want to run 3 but can't run any, with PoA you can run 3 but shouldn't want to run any.

It'll forever remain the way it is now...unless a card is released that combos with it

Technically, there is a card that combos with it, but it's banned. Our old friend Painful Choice.

While it has been teched in some decks, the only decks I see really benefitting from PoA are:
Exodia - retreve pieces, but actually PoA is likely to hurt by making the deck bigger if you play it at the wrong time,
RescueCat OTK - add fallen beasts in your Graveyard back to the deck to set up the OTK,
Swarm - replenish swarmer supply to swarm yet again.
Most other decks may be able to tech, but not much else. Restrict to 1 or 2? Possible, but unlikey. Ban? With the current cardpool, I think I'm more likely to see a purple flying monkey come out of my water faucet...WITHOUT doing drugs.
