"Mystical Space Typhoon" Rating Score by カディーン

Spell Trap A card that should be called the originator of removal. There are older cards in the sense of being the original, but Harpie's Feather Broom wasn't easy to get, and the risk of tying your own card in the Great Storm wasn't small at the time, so it was the first concept of pinpoint removal. You can say I don't know about removing spells or removing traps.
After the appearance of this card, his Continuous Spell Trap was crushed like a counter, and the battle landscape and his Deck construction theory changed greatly.
On the other hand, it is also true that there were many cards that escaped the ban because they were "cracked by a cyclone". Mirafo and Libidet would have been banned longer without the cyclones (and storms).
In addition, this card itself was often used face down, so it is a great achievement that brought depth to Yu-Gi-Oh by reading each other about face-down cards such as End Psych.
However, perhaps it went a little too far, or the existence of Cyclone, which destroyed the concept in the era of designer decks that followed, was inconvenient, and it was listed as a limited card for a while.
This is a measure despite the fact that this card alone cannot be called a power card. I have the impression that they were jointly and severally held responsible for the storm's violence.
After that, there were many twists and turns, and many backward compatibility and mutual compatibility were created, and they continued to be involved in many metagames and continued to function as mediators of the times.
Currently, it can be said that it is in a semi-retired state, giving up its position to a backward, mutual interchange with more sharp performance.
Nowadays, dealing with spell traps in the main deck is so easy that you don't even need the help of an expert. Since Kozusai Tsuitsui, which has a greater impact on the board, is given priority, there are few opportunities to see it in actual battle.
