T.G. Hyper Librarian (x1)
trash cancer - if you read the effect of this card, it simply draws 1 card, but it doesn't say once per turn, meaning you have a full combo then hold a bunch of handtraps in your hand, this card is very easy to pick up, no If you need a TG monster, you only need 1 Tuner and 1 non-Tuner, then you can add it up

used to be a card that TG players called "Sir" until the new support ( TG Over Dragonoar ) was released, then he was able to rest in peace, the bad thing about this card is that you use 3 materials instead of 2 materials like Dragonoar and must have TG monsters from hand AND deck AND grave to be able to use it, sometimes you will not be able to use this effect because your hand does not have TG monsters and also the card is captured by Imperm , Veiler ,...
