There are two types of trap defense

The first one is when someone uses a 3-4* defense card as lead to "trap" others into thinking the defense behind it is weak. If done right this will gather a lot of wins from people who gets trapped, but it can also backfire if a strong team hits the defense. (This is the one you're asking about)

The second one is when someone uses a lead of a type (preferably all defense boosters), but have a defense of another type behind. This can also gather wins if the attacker users type-specific reducers, but are at a disadvantage most of the time because the defense behind usually don't buff the lead card and the attacking team most likely having type boost.

If it's not the leader card that's the "weak card" then the person basically doesn't have good enough daemons or have something else in mind.
