Staple

A Staple is a card that is considered so splashable that it is included in almost any Deck the owner chooses to construct.

Opinions on what exactly constitutes a Staple card often comes down to the individual, and today's current strategies and deck-types have limited most Staples to being mostly Spell/Trap cards.

Below is a list of cards that many consider staples (although some could be considered Semi-Staples).

Most of these cards are (or were) included in Limited Lists, mostly becuse of their usefulness ; actually, many cards on the Forbidden list were once Staples (e.g. Pot of Greed, Change of Heart, Raigeki, Harpie's Feather Duster, etc).
