When I played this games predecessor, I rarely used anything else than my custom deck to speed through everything, and when a duel still gave me too much trouble, I busted out an Exodia deck thats unlocked early on and almost always guaranteed an easy win
It helps that its fun to play, too
At the end of the battle phase, if your opponent controls more cards than you, youre able to activate this card to force them to banish cards from the field (face-down) until they have the same number as cards as you
Feels nice, especially against Number 30: Acid Golem of Destruction
