Tech Card: Xing Zhen Hu
Xing Zhen Hu is an old trap card, way back from Rise of Destiny. Because most of you might have forgotten what it does, here's the text:
Xing Zhen Hu
Continuous Trap
Activate by selecting 2 Set Spell or Trap Cards on the field. The selected Spell or Trap Cards cannot be activated.
Though this card is probably not very useful in the current meta, it's still a very interesting card that deserves a second look in casual decks. The ability to lock two of your opponent's spell/traps means they won't dare set many more cards, in case you have Heavy Storm. Furthermore, they'll be wasting two of their spaces.
Give this card a try in lockdown decks, and watch your opponent get frustrated as you deny them the chance to activate their spells/traps.

Ancient Prophecy Preview: Release Restraint Wave
Ever found yourself facing a full back row of face-downs and wishing you could do something without triggering any traps? Well, with today's review, you can deal with any unpleasant surprises for a small cost:
Release Restraint Wave
Normal Spell
Select one face-up Equip Spell Card you control. Destroy the selected card and every face-down Spell and Trap your opponent controls.
Release Restraint Wave does have a few limitations, but the ability to destroy all your opponent's face-down spell/traps is just too alluring to pass up on. The main thing keeping this card from seeing much competitive play is the fact that you have to pay an equip spell in order to activate its effect. Firstly, equip spells aren't that popular and secondly, if your opponent manages to destroy the equip spell by (for example) chaining Mystical Space Typhoon to the activation of Release Restraint Wave, its effect will be negated.
Though it's still possible for your opponent to chain to this card, you can still clear away any unpleasant surprises your opponent may have in store for you. Give this card a try, and see if you can find a way around its weaknesses!
