Explained

What it does

Trap Cards, and their effects on the field, can't be activated, and all Trap effects on the field are negated.

Play it when

Against Trap-heavy decks, as a monster that turns off their backrow.

Common mistakes
  • Forgetting it also stops your own Traps.

How it works

Jinzo has a Continuous Effect: Trap Cards, and their effects on the field, can’t be activated. All Trap effects on the field are negated.

Rulings in plain English

Who’s affected? Both players. Traps can’t be activated even from the hand.

What’s negated? Trap effects activated on the field (even if the Trap left), and effects of face-up Traps that apply without a chain.

Already-resolved Traps? Not undone if Jinzo arrives later.

Jinzo - Returner, Jinzo the Machine Menace.
