who is better mirrage dragon or jinzo? what do you think

mirrage dragon
dragon/effect
during battle phase your opponent cannot activate traps while this card is on the feild.

isn't traps mostly use in battle phases? so i think it is better than jinzo
resons: Light (good for bls)
Dragon (good for paladin)
Dosen't need to be tributed (level 4)

so i just want you opinions on who you think is better.

Well I must say I am taken aback by the fact you forgot the other cards similar to Mirage Dragon. I would have to say depends on the deck you are running. Obviously Jinzo is not as easy to run over as Mirage Dragon and his kin might be. Sure Mirage Dragon could be Chaos Food, but he really isn't effective chaos fodder. I would say his best place is in Dragon Decks. For Chaos Decks, there are better things, like Jinzo, and one or two other cards. Mirage just doesn't pack the power Jinzo does. I mean not all traps are used during the Battle Phases.

i think jinzo is better, i run a dragon deck and i used to use mirage dragon, its effect is a little too narrow, took it out. i think lord of d. would work better.

Overall, Jinzo is better...

The only traps I tend to see during the Battle Phase

Mirror Force (april bans)
Magic Cylinder
Draining Shield
Sakuretsu Armor

And other cards that require opponent to attack.

Most other traps like Call of the Haunted, Waboku, etc are usually used during Main Phase 1, where Mirage Dragon has no authority over.

The Bald Man > Mirage Dragon
Negates traps PEROID > Negates traps in only battle phase
2400 ATK > 1600 ATK

I personally agree with Mirage Dragon. The little pup has pulled me out of jams even with Jinzo going against me. Beside, take the time to pump up MD with some equip cards and your set.

Mirage Dragon over Jinzo anyday. It's cool to see something different.

Jinzo don't need lots of equips and negates all of the opponent's traps. Only 3 common traps are used during battle phase. Sakuretsu, Cylinders, and Mirror.
They couldda been used by then or not been drawn yet.

Hmm, I run 3x Mirage Dragon in my Dragon deck. That's just because it's a Dragon and it creates speed with King Dragun. But, I'd say.....NIETHER! Ha, if you can get ahold of Royal Decree, I'd play it over both. You can get the Jinzo effect no matter what monster you have on the field, if any. The only problem is, it's so freaking unbelievably hard to get. Why is it, anyways? I mean, they released Tinzo. Why not release Royal Decree as a Secret Rare, or an Ultra Rare or something, in a booster set, then semi-limit it?

i think it is to be rereleased in the db boosters, or somewhere.

meh, i think its easier to protect a monster than a magic/trap card, unless the cards has its own defenses (fusion sword, etc.), but im probably forgetting some support cards.
