"Greed" (強 (ごう) 欲 (よく) Gōyoku) is series of cards whose effects revolve around drawing 1 or more cards from the player's Deck. All the cards in this series are based on "Pot of Greed", which lets the player draw 2 cards from their Deck; "Pot of Greed" appears in many of the cards' artworks. Other cards change this effect by increasing or decreasing the number of cards drawn or letting the opponent draw cards instead.

While the card-drawing aspect is similar, this series is unrelated to "Treasure Cards".

• Hidden Fangs of Revenge

"Pot of" Spell Cards

Also, there is a related series of "Pot of" (な壺, na Tsubo) Normal Spell Cards that are directly reminiscent of "Pot of Greed", either in terms of effect and/or artwork and concept, and that have the effect of allowing the player to draw 2 cards, with the difference between them being the cost and/or activation requirement. They were designed to be more balanced or watered-down versions of the original "Pot of Greed". There are, however, exceptions to this pattern, such as "Pot of Acquisitiveness", a Quick-Play Spell Card that gives only 1 draw, as well as "Pot of Generosity", and "Pot of Duality":

"Pot of" Spell Card	Cost or condition preceeding the draw (if existing)
Avarice	Shuffles 5 monsters from the player's Graveyard into the Deck.
Benevolence	Shuffles 2 cards from either player's Graveyard into the Deck.
Generosity	Shuffles 2 cards from the player's hand into the Deck.
Duality	Excavates the top 3 cards of the player's Main Deck and adds 1 of them to the hand; restricts Special Summons.
Dichotomy	Shuffles 3 monsters with different Types from the player's Graveyard into the Deck; restricts Battle Phase.
Riches	Shuffles 3 Pendulum monsters from the player's Graveyard and/or face-up Extra Deck into the Deck; restricts Special Summons other then Pendulum Summons.
Acquisitiveness	Shuffles 3 banished monsters into the Deck(s).
Desires	Banishes 10 cards from the top of the player's Main Deck, face-down.
Extravagance	Banishes 3 or 6 random cards from the player's face-down Extra Deck, face-down; restricts other drawing effects.

In addition, the artworks of some of them are amalgamations of pre-existing "Pots":

"Pot of" Spell Card	Component "Pots"
Duality	Greed
	Generosity
Dichotomy	Avarice
	Benevolence
Desires	Greed
	Avarice
Extravagance	Greed
