HARV'S REVIEW
A 1 for 2…if you can pull it off. Two big drawbacks to this card. Drawback #1 - Obviously, there must be two monsters to destroy. That amounts to destroying two of your opponent's monsters (yummy), one of theirs and one of yours (meh…but could still be useful), or two of yours (uh, why in god's name would you do dat'!??...although there may be a reason or two). Going with the steller option of destroying two of your opponent's monsters, this can be a great card now, for many monsters are hitting the field quick-like these days. On occasion, if an opponent has a couple monsters that they may want to do something with on their turn, their Priority may beat out your activation of Treacherous Trap Hole. But, there are so many other great scenario's that will let you pop two of your opponent's monsters, especially when up against decks like Six Samurai's, Lightsworn's, Zombies, Batterymen, etc…
Onto Drawback #2…and it's a biggie…
You cannot activate this card if there is another Trap card in your Graveyard. Ouch!...but still manageable in certain decks. A RFP deck with Macro and Banisher could work. A deck with 2-3 Treacherous Trap Holes, with all other cards being Spells, and maybe a way(s) to get those Treacherous out of your Graveyard, such as with Soul Release or Diskblade Rider (Who??? LoL), could work. A deck with 2-3 Treacherous Trap Holes, and getting a spent Treacherous back to your hand with Mask of Darkness…or to the top of your deck with Aswan Apparition…could work. All Spells in a deck, with 1 Treacherous…like some Diamond Dude thingy…could work.
Yeah, this cards restrictions definitely take some working around. Worth the effort? It could be…I think. Not too many "+ anythings" out there.
So, uh, good luck with that.
Advanced Format (in the right dialed deck) - 9/10
Art - 2/10 (goofy...and I don't get it)
