Head Judging

Attribute	Trap
Type	Continuous Trap

text

When a monster on the field activates its effect: You can make the activating player toss a coin and call it. If they call it right, send this card to the GY. If they call it wrong, negate that effect's activation, and if you do, change control of that monster to their opponent. You can only use this effect of "Head Judging" once per turn.

Pros

Negates a monster effect.
Takes control of an opponent’s monster.
No activation cost.

Cons

Relies on a coin toss.
Destroys itself when the coin toss is called right.

Tips

Practically a 50-50 chance of negating your opponent’s effect and stealing your opponent’s monster or doing nothing.
Head Judging makes your opponent toss the coin so skills involving coin toss wouldn’t work.
Since your opponent performs the toss, support such as Second Coin Toss will not work.
Be careful not to activate this card on your own monster.

Not sure why you think Second Coin Toss only works on your own coin tosses. It gives no craps who's tossing the coin. (Heck, it even works on cards like The Paths of Destiny that require both to.)

Because it is written in the tip bellow.

I tried it though and it really doesn't work although you are right - it should work on any coin toss not just your own, but it doesn't work with head judging.

Nope. Coin based skill only works if you are the one tossing the coin. In Head Judging case, it's your opponent who toss the coin

which is great because they cant just guess heads and in a mirror you force thier skill and waste a coin.

...it's your opponent who toss the coin.
So that's why the card 'Second Coin Toss' doesn't work with this trap. :)

It's just used as filler to trigger Master of Destiny. 50% chance of negating a monster effect and stealing it is very strong. And if your opponent loses the coin toss it stays on the field and you can continue using it.

YEET

I like the artwork tho...

If it works great, if it doesn’t you don’t get a penalty because it just gets sent to the graveyard, not a fan of luck based decks because I like to have control over what I play, but if I was then I’d definitely consider putting this in

You don't consider wasting a card a penalty in itself? lol

To everyone who questioned why Second Coin Toss does not work with this card, here's the answer:

OCG text of Second Coin Toss clearly says "When YOU perform a coin toss".
The TCG text for Second Coin Toss is wrong.

And DL follows OCG ruling, therefore, Second Coin Toss does not work with Head Judging, because in OCG Second Coin Toss only works if you are the one tossing the coin, not the opponent.

Ok cool thx for the clarification. It's still pretty 🔥ed since the text on the card ingame is not what it actual effect is... Leave it to KuntMoney to 🔥 up so pathetically

the TCG branch 🔥ing things up is not that uncommon, unfortunately.

Just look at all those meaningful/cool card names that they ruined in TCG.

Annoying if your opponent pulls it off. Luckily, I have been calling the coin right, so my opponent hasn’t been able to do anything with it. Once tip is that since it’s a continuous trap, your opponent has to activate it before your monsters activate their effects to pull it off, no chaining. So you can either cosmic this trap, or just not active any monster effects once they active this trap.

It's true that you can stop it with Cosmic Cyclone but it can chain to monster effects.

Might be rigged in PvP? Works fine in PvE but in PvP my opponent called it right 10/10 when I activated it. Probability of that happening is 1 in 1000.

Head judging should be like this.if you call it right you can take control one monster your opponent controls too.also after 1 activation the head judging goes to grave.the head judging controller could only activate head judging if controlled a monster.also certain decks which abuse giving certain monsters to opponent to have advantage should be forbid using it.so basicly this card is a ban cos komoney wont do the following things

Agreed this card destroys the purpose of gambling with both sides having to gamble their own monsters for it.

Head Judging isn't available to purchase, only to upgrade to Glossy or Prismatic.

i may try this just to have this card banned.in a random deck ofc.just experimenting not to annoy other players.so im not hypocrite.this is a toxic card but im testing how toxic it is.the best way to find out is to play it.its different when played against you cos you cant measure it that much

Very luck based, but pretty devastating when it works. Imagine your opponent wasting so much stuff to summon Shiranui Sunsaga / Quintet Magician just to get negated and stolen by you
