Card Tips:Mask of Restrict


 * Use this with the effect of Cyber Dragon, Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight or The Fiend Megacyber and use lots of Equip Spell Cards.


 * Excellent against the Monarchs. This card basically turns the Monarchs into dead weight, locking up your opponent's hand.


 * When equipping Mask of the Accursed to an opposing monster, it is best to have Mask of Restrict on the field to prevent the equipped monster from being Tributed.


 * This card can be used to counter Destiny Hero - Plasma and Stardust Dragon as they will not be able to be tributed.


 * This card can potentially work very well in a Gladiator Beast deck, since there are only a few high-level Gladiator Beasts that go in the Deck, and they can all be Special Summoned out of the deck under the right circumstances.


 * Useful against decks that rely on "Exiled Force".


 * This is also very good against Plant decks since a lot of their effects include making a tribute. To name a few, Lonefire Blossom, Pollinosis, and Tytannial all require tributes, and are the major staples of Plant decks.


 * Since Yubel requires a Tribute each turn just to stay on the field, this card is one of its weaknesses.


 * Use this with Lava Golem so your opponent cannot tribute it. However, take caution, as you cannot summon Lava Golem while Mask of Restrict is active.


 * If used in a deck with Final Attack Orders and Royal Oppression with high attack four star monsters like Goblin Attack Force and Goblin Elite Attack Force, and other cards of the sort, you could put your opponent in an extremely tight spot. Be sure to have a few Destruction Jammer cards and other counter traps handy to keep these traps from being destroyed.


 * Use the above stategy with Uria, Lord of Searing Flames and surprise your opponent with a high attacker. Be warned though that once you do this, you could lose your advantage if you don't have the right cards handy as backup.


 * Side deck this card in a Synchro deck against decks such as Macro Monarch, since sending monsters to the graveyard for a Synchro Summon is not considered Tributing.


 * This card works well against the effect of Stardust Dragon.
