@zephy By "using a reducer against my team", I assume you mean using a daemon that reduces anima attack in that defense team, right?

Reducing attack and reducing defense are very different. With reducing attack, you have no control over your opponents' teams; you can only influence them (like phantom lead to try to attract divinas).

With reducing defense, however, you have some control. You pick and choose your targets. Sure, maybe there's an OP divina defense hiding behind Trick or Treat, but you can reduce the defense of at least one daemon. And why would trick or treat be used as a trap, anyway? Sei, tsukuyomi, etc. are much better traps (well, then again, tsukuyomi isn't exactly a trap, but I'm talking about the technical sense of the word). Or MLRS or yeti etc. If you pick and choose an opponent with a defensive or leader lead that only boosts a certain type, then it's not very likely that you'll run into a trap. And if you do, then the person is probably a megawhale with OP defense that you can't beat anyway xD But if you pick and choose an offensive lead or a lead that boosts all defense or a lead that reduces all attack, then it's much more likely that the person is a trap (relatively speaking only). That's how I attack whales: I wait for them to switch to a defensive or leader lead that only boosts a certain type before chucking my reducers at them.

And then, of course, there's tower. HTR reducers FTW.
