'One glance is all it took for that pudding to steal my heart.'

Dangerous Pudding is a collectible Trap card that can be acquired from the Base Pack.

Effect

Upon use, this Trap card is set on the player's current panel. When this card is triggered, the affected unit will gain the Dangerous Pudding stock effect, which forces them to skip their next turn.

Notes

• If a KO'd unit is affected by Dangerous Pudding, they will skip their revive roll, and the recovery counter will not go down.
• QP (Dangerous)'s passive will cause her to gain +1 ATK for every Dangerous Pudding card in her hand.
• Yuki (Dangerous)'s passive will cause any Dangerous Pudding cards in her hand to automatically transform into  Tragedy in the Dead of Night.

Strategy

Dangerous Pudding is a trap that is annoying to land on regardless of the victim's stats, abilities, or hand contents. While traps like  Heat 300% can be rendered useless by certain characters (in this case, characters with high EVD) and  Bad Pudding can whiff on a player with a empty hand, Dangerous Pudding is almost always relevant. A skipped turn is a turn not spent collecting stars, wins, or cards. Therefore, it shares a niche along with  Go Away for level 1 traps that affect all characters equally at all stages of the game.

Any character that can play cards can do reasonably well with Dangerous Pudding. Passive characters in particular stand to benefit from it the most by using it to slow down other players while they gather stars. Trap users like Saki and Krilalaris can make good use of this card with their other traps to help hide  Big Bang Bell, and fuel  Completion Reward, respectively.

While Dangerous Pudding is useful for almost every character, many characters have other low level traps they can use in their deck that will benefit them more. For example, while Dangerous Pudding does make it easier to catch up to players, offensive characters like Star Breaker may prefer to play  Assault over this card due to the immediate combat opportunity it provides. Dangerous Pudding also does nothing to stop players from returning  Home to level up, unlike  Go Away,  Sky Restaurant 'Pures', or even  Mimyuu's Hammer.
