I'm sorry but would it be all right if I stick with the old OCG Rulings? I understand Magic to Spell but this is all too much....

Card Grammar was never a part of the rules. So in all honesty, I don't know if it'll be alright.

I think that some people will take this opportunity to bash people's OCG during this transition. May I suggest making a rule so that the people who prefer the old OCG don't have to suffer that?

Bashing is against the rules already. I see it and you will be reprimanded appropriately.

No gameplay changes until the new Hero archetypes turn up and start making Stratos even better, and everything gets that much clearer? Love it. Banish makes RFP so much easier to deal with, that's perfect. Piercing is a great intuitive word for what it does, I don't think anyone misunderstood it when it was used on that one Cyberdark. 'Leaves the field' isn't unprofessional at all, and the extra clarity and text box space will be a great improvement. The only one I'm not sure about is 'targeted for an attack', cause it could confuse people with effects that check for targeting in the same way that 'removed from the field' confused people with 'removed from play'.

Sorry... When 1 card was removed from play (with old OCG) you know were to find it!! (In a poket or something) Now, when the card is banishing or banished, you must call the Sherlock Holmes to find it!! :lol:

What I mean is that those 2 phrases have different meaning!!!

I think that the old OCG is better, cooler and easier to use. The new OCG sounds ridiculous! What are we? Stupid Yugioh 4KIDS series characters with idiotic translations? :blink:

Some people are. I can't tell you how many times I got into fights with people who though Proto Cyber Dragon's effect gave it 2100 ATK.

Okay, that IS an issue. I guess in a way Konami is starting to adapt a "MTG" form of wording, except it's Piercing instead of "Trample" and such. I wonder if MTG will sue Konami for copyright! XD

Can't unless they're actually using "Trample".

And Piercing is just so you don't have to see a long line of text and save a bit of room. It's also been used on Cyberdark Horn, so it has technically been official OCG for a long time now.

Old OCG = Wordy/Tedious
New OCG = Simple/Effective
[/quote]
Old OCG = Fun to write long effects
New OCG = Weird and boring, almost impossible to write too long effects

Long effects are boring and stupid. Cards are supposed to be short and effective

Okay. So the fact is that you hate long effects? Then I shall not complain.
[/quote]

wtf why doesn't anyone use contractions except sexy people like me

Long effects are often interesting by themselves in the tcg, but some short effects can be equally or even more interesting because of the multiple interactions they have with other cards. Overall, it seems that short effects and long effects have their uses in Yugioh. WOW I LEARNED SOMETHING TODAY.

The fact is that shorter effects are better

You guys are both stating opinions. Get over it.
