So, product has made it to Singapore, etc. It was quite surprising to see this amongst the overall weak set:
Pot of Greed and Modesty
Normal Spell
Reveal the top 3 cards of your deck. Choose 1 of them, and add it to your hand. Shuffle the remaining cards back into the deck. Only 1 "Pot of Greed and Modesty" can be activated per turn, and you cannot special summon during the turn this card is activated.

The kooky fashion in which this card functions reminds me of the Pokémon TCG. Anyway, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that this card will instantly shoot into staple status. The question is, how many copies?
There's little to no risk in running one. Just surrender your ability to explode for a turn, and in exchange you'll likely be handed something that's crucial to your long-term game.
Two is also a very reasonable inclusion. Rarely will they be drawn together or lead into each other. The frequency at which at least one is drawn increases, in turn aiding any deck's consistency if it has to fill space.
A play set is best off in those decks that simply don't have any other options to sift through their cards, those low tier decks that have been crying for a way to get to 40 cards and still flow well. You run into the issue of drawing duplicates when using three, but that's not going to hurt as much as not getting any combos together would.
Gadgets, including Machina variants, absolutely adore a card like this because it doesn't really hinder their flow at all, and it allows them to draw their outs to faster decks, or just things to wear other decks down in general.
It might replace "Black Feather Treasure" in Blackwings.
FTK decks, sadly, get a boost from this - as long as they don't special summon. Hello, Exodia?
"Pot of Greed and Modesty" might not be the best of choices in a deck like Quickdraw Plants, though.
The possibilities are endless. @_@
