"Herald of Purple Light" Rating Score by みめっと

Each is one of the 3-color Heralds that negates and destroys the activation of specific types of cards, and this card is a hand trigger monster that stops her traps, and its own status and activation conditions are the same as those.
First of all, monsters with triggered immediate effects that specialize in activating Trap cards are those that already exist in the field, and due to the relationship between the activation of the effects of Trap cards and GY's Trap cards and spell speed, Counter Trap is all out of the defense range. Since it will be repelled, its defensive range will be narrower than I thought.
The reason why Otsuka, Shocker, and Reboot were so strong was because they had effects that didn't activate, and Counter Trap either negates her or doesn't even activate it at all.
Trap cards have a limited activation timing or have activation conditions, so many of them have high power to overturn the situation of the field with one card. In many cases, even if you draw this card first, it is difficult to use it in most situations.
If it's the second attack, it's okay to split it, and especially with Continuous Trap, if you use Kozusai or Tsuitsui, you can hit it from above after seeing it.
Well, it's still better to accept this card than to reboot against the foam shadow that your opponent throws on your first turn, but...
Among the 3-color Heralds, there are few unique strengths, and I think it tends to be used less often.
