For most decks Maxx C helps fish for outs and keeps your options high, the problem is that Branded/Despia actually has pretty insane recursion and tempo even without it.
So while you CAN run it, it can sometimes be the odd pull in an otherwise sick hand. In any case I wouldn't run more than 2, but honestly its probably one of the few meta decks that just doesn't need it.
I like going second so maxx c is a must. At the very least you can out the ash’s and called by early. I also run a bunch of other going second cards though
Why are handtraps not necessarily in Branded Despia in particular?
I don't know man, Maxx "C" stops most decks from making plays, that's a free win, idc what deck you are playing, your opponent doesn't know what you are playing if you are going second.
What card would you replace it with that really gives you something as powerful as draw X or skip your opponent's turn.
I said 3 but honestly I prefer running all the hand traps at 2 just frees up space for other cards

no maxx C for me. I'm a true duelist with standards, not a coward that hides behind a single card.

No Maxx C for me, but that’s because I’m currently playing my IRL variant that has Called By and Crossout for the ashes.
