One of the cards that hasn't been used much is Maxx C. I'm not sure if that's because it's a secret rare or because people just don't think it's good enough to fit a copy or two into your side deck.
Worst case scenario... ok, worst case scenario is that you have to set the damn thing because your opponent is playing a stun deck with no special summons. Beyond that, you should be able to cycle Maxx C to draw 1 card, at worst.
At best? Let's say a deck like Junk Doppel enters it's "mega draw" step with TG Hyper Librarian. Normal summon Junk Synchron. When Junk's ability triggers, you chain Maxx C. Junk special summons Ryko and you draw a card. Your opponent special summons Doppelwarrior from his hand and you draw a card. Junk and Doppel synch for Librarian and you draw a card. Doppel makes two tokens, you draw a card.
Here, you're up three cards.
Opponent uses One for One to special summon Glow Up Bulb, you draw a card. Synchro a token and Bulb for Formula Synchron, they draw two cards, you draw a card. Special Bulb from graveyard you draw a card. They make another Formula and draw two and you draw a card... you get the pattern.
Or after your opponent uses Junk Synchron and the Ryko that they special summoned from the graveyard to synchro for Frozen Fitzgerald, they decide to stop special summoning that turn. They lose their momentum and you still draw two cards.
The best way to play Maxx C is to have a back up plan for it if you don't use it to draw a lot of cards.
Fili Luna played a Maxx C in his X-Saber deck and one in his side at YCS Anaheim. Even if Maxx C wound up being a dead card in his hand, it is an Earth monster, so Luna could normal summon it and use it with his Fulhelmknight or Airbellum to make Naturia Beast.
If you play a deck like Junk Doppel, I think it's worth playing one main and one side. Since it's a level two monster, it provides you with yet another Junk Synchron target. If you use it to draw cards beforehand, all the better.
