Explosive Draw

[Normal Trap]

During damage calculation, when you would take battle damage, take doubled battle damage instead, then draw 1 card for every 1000 damage you took. Also, after damage calculation, destroy the monster(s) that battled.

Ooof, definitely dangerous, but interesting. Take 3500 damage, make it 7000, draw 7 cards and proceed to revenge-kill next turn xD. You know what, I like this card, desperate times require desperate measures. Just a tiny thing with the grammar: "draw 1 card for each 1000 damage you took".

Thank you for correction, bro. Anyhow, one interaction crossed my mind: Backup_Squad. Do you think that because the battle damage is changed as a result of your own card effect that it would not count towards Backup Squad? Just curious.

Interesting question. The thing is, you used the word "instead". In that case, I'm finding it a bit hard to determine whether it's still the opponent's monster, but inflicting double damage, or because of the "instead", it's all this card's damage, and in such a case, no Backup Squad activation. I believe it would be much more clear if instead you'd take the damage as effect damage. Of course, that will completely discard the compatibility with Backup, but will avoid controversy for those kind of interactions.

During damage calculation, when you would take battle damage: Take damage equal to double the damage you would have originally taken instead, and if you do, draw 1 card for every 1000 damage you took.

Well, I know I suggested the "each" word earlier, but considering Backup Squad is using "every" we should use it as reference. But wait, now I'm thinking of something else:

So yeah, activate 3 Backup Squad, take 7000 damage and draw 28 cards. Main Phase 2: Your opponent uses Card Destruction xD.
