"Greed" ( (ごう) (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".

The storyline of "Goblin of Greed" can be seen in the artwork of the following cards:

"Pot of" Spell Cards

Also, there is a series of Normal Spell Cards (な壺, na Tsubo) 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. There are some members that don't follow this pattern, though, such as "Pot of Acquisitiveness", that is a Quick-Play Spell Card that gives only 1 draw, as well as "Pot of Generosity", and "Pot of Duality". They were designed to be fairer or watered-down versions of the original "Pot of Greed".

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.
Dichotomy Shuffles 3 monsters with different Types from the player's Graveyard into the Deck.
Riches Shuffles 3 Pendulum monsters from the player's Graveyard and/or face-up Extra Deck into the Deck.
Desires Banishes 10 cards from the top of the player's Main Deck, face-down.
Indulgence Banishes 3 or 6 random cards from the player's Extra Deck, face-down.

In addition, some of them have artworks that are amalgamations of pre-existing "Pots" and whose effects somehow combine the effects of the original "Pots":
