Why is Call of the Haunted banned?


Recommended Posts

When Monster Reborn was still banned, I always thought Call of the Haunted was supposed to be a weaker version of Monster Reborn.

 

Now Call of the Haunted is banned and Monster Reborn is Limited.

I don't understand this at all.

 

Does anyone know?

Well, let's see the goods and bads of Monster Reborn and Call of the Haunted.

 

Monster Reborn-

Good: Can Call opponent's graveyard

Bad: Can Only activate on Your Turn

Call of the Haunted-

Good: Can Activate on Either Turn

Bad: Can't call Opponent's Monsters

 

Basically,

if you are stronger then the opponent, Call of the Haunted is OK.

if you are weaker then the opponent, Monster Reborn is Better.

 

I think they're about the same streangth, but Konami might have different thoughts.

Kenta appearently missed the oh-so important fact that you can chain Call of the Haunted to a Monster Reborn, and Special Summon the target monster(proved the opponet picks yours?) and the opponet ends up giving himself a -1, from his own Monster Reborn.

Both should be banned' date=' bring back Premature, and limit arms hole.

[/quote']

Prem is already ban worthy with out Arms Hole. Also you forgot about Brionac making Prem even more ban worthy.

 

All 3 should be banned. The reason Reborn isn't is, most likely, is that it keeps your opponent from dropping any old thing in the grave.

I miss doing that to my opponents :(. And yeah, Call is banned because of 1-n00bs like the TC, 2-Jinzo etc., and most imortantly, 3- Because Konami says so..

This has always seemed to be the most idiotic excuse ever to me. >_> People still dump any old thing in the Graveyard, and we now have an entire archetype whose sole purpose is to randomly dump stuff in the Graveyard. Meanwhile, the person using Monster Reborn can use their own Graveyard too, so controlling one's own Graveyard still wouldn't stop them from Summoning something awesome.

 

The end result is that nobody ever has any motivation to control their own Graveyard, and we just end up with one more card that goes into everyone's decks and can swing games based on who's lucky enough to draw it.

So according to everyone's logic' date=' all 3 should be banned [b']and replaced with a stupid card that will slow down the game even more.[/b]

 

By your logic, all Spellcasters should be banned and they should release more Machines. Also, according to your logic, Crystal Beasts deserve to be top-tier and Hitler was right.

 

Wheeee, it's fun to completely misrepresent people's arguments by pulling sheer nonsense out of nowhere!

Konami banned CoTH because it can help you summon Uria, which is an extremely dangerous card, and Konami didn't want n00bs to be able to summon it!

 

Also, Konami banned CoTH for the n00bs own best, because if they use it, they may be the next victim of Trap Eater!

wat about the part where when monster summoned by COTH is tributed, COTH stays on the field and you have a useless card that doesnt go away. i hate to say this, but maybe konami is making it easier for us by switching the two

Not even, depending on how you see it they might be equal or one is better.

 

Call > Unbanned

Monster > Banned

 

Reasoning: People would argue that you could just use Call to get the target from the graveyard and stop reborn.

Reborn and Call would never be both unbanned making those points invalid. Call is a trap, resulting in 1 turn wait, reborn you can use during your turn.

 

Reborn can target your opponents graveyard and your own graveyard, Call only affects you.

 

Call is a trap, which means that it can be activated during opponents turn (battle phase or your own battle phase), but if destroyed, the monster is destroyed. Reborn is permanent. Also if the monster is removed from the field, it stays on and acts as a -1 Slot for S/T zone.

 

Therefore I say call should be unbanned, and reborn banned again.

Also' date=' according to your logic, Hitler was right.

He was right... He should've found another solution than just gassing everybody tough...

 

OT: Monster Reborn obviously pwns CotH. But, I don't think it deserves to be banned ever again.
