You don't have to play them, all five have to be in your hand to trigger the win condition. You just reveal them once you have them all (and there's no current "chain" of plays in effect)

wow that doesn't sound completely fucked at all

It sounds more powerful than it actually was. Hand limit was 7, so you'd be sacrificing up to more than half your hand size for a small chance at an instant win. That plus a lack of consistent draw in Yu-Gi-Oh, it was basically a crap shoot. If you ran an Exodia condition deck, you'd maybe win 1/3 times.

But the memes are immaculate

no consistent draw? What did pot of greed do?

Pot of greed draws 2. You can also only have 2 in a deck. It's also banned in competitive play.

You draw two cards when you play it. No drawbacks or additional effects.

It's all also, like, one of a handful of cards that actually let you draw.
