Guest PikaPerson01 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Except we already discussed Magical Dimension, so this parody topic fails. Discuss Gale the Whirlwind, and where you'd put it on a good banlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technicolour Genocide Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 I'd voice my opinion, but then I'd get immediately attacked regardless of what I say. If I say zero, someone is going to call me an idiot for banning a "fair" card. If I say one, someone is going to call me an idiot for not banning a "broken" card. If I say two, someone is going to call me an idiot because two is stupid for mostly everything. If I say three, someone is going to call me an idiot for... :/ I'll just sit this one out.

Psycho Shocker Android Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 I don't know why the shrink effect is permanent on this but the boost from Sirroco isn't. They both lack the "until the end of the turn" part but somehow Konami decided that one should be permanent while the other shouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabHelmet Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 I could certainly see this at 0, especially since the permashrink effect is de facto removal. Though that depends in part on how your list theory handles Synchros. I'd voice my opinion' date=' but then I'd get immediately attacked regardless of what I say.

Now you just need to figure out whose calls of "idiot" actually matter, and which is just a case of the pot seeing its black reflection in the shiny kettle.

◊ Hᵃᵏᵃˢᵉ ◊ Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 At least they reduced it to 1, instead of keeping it at 3. That would've made BWs beyond the stage of broken. It's like saying you can have 4 Judgement Dragons in a Deck, it doesn't make sense...... Basically, in my opinion, keeping this at even 1 with all the new BWs of Doom coming out is a serious mistake. They just get stronger and stronger. I frankly regret trading all 3 of mine now. Rofl. Should've sold em. Would've made a butt-load of cash.... At least I think. ._.

I'm afraid I don't catch your metaphor.

There are people who think Pot of Greed should be legal or Zaborg should be Limited; are their cries of "idiot" of any significance?

I will also say that I at least have more respect for people who venture some sort of opinion, even if I disagree with it, than those who venture none at all - especially if they have some logical basis for their viewpoint beyond "its my favrite card dont ban it". Such people may be wrong, but at least they put themselves out on a limb and in doing so create a learning experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
