[Tournament] Official Duel Portal Pooling and Banlist Thread

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

Assault Marshal is being removed from the pool until further testing is done, as decreed by two out of three Pool Moderators (third was not present at time of decision).

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

I did say I'd put these two up once I was satisfied with things, so here they are.

(They are not on DP right now, due to it acting stupid + not allowing me to type or c/p stuff at the moment. I will have them up hopefully by tomorrow.)

 

EDIT: Flash is up, but Arcane is currently not.

(They are not on DP right now, due to it acting stupid + not allowing me to type or c/p stuff at the moment. I will have them up hopefully by tomorrow.)

 

EDIT: Flash is up, but Arcane is currently not.

Decided to take a more active role in my position for pool approval. 

 

Pegasus honestly still feels like a bit much. An Armades at level 6 is already powerful, and adding in a Horus effect that you can use every turn (and please note that previous targets stay negated) is silly. I feel like the Horus effect should either be a once while face-up (a la wind-ups) or only last until the end of the turn. Second option is definitely preferable, as it prevents it from generally outclassing an already very good card.

 

The Dragon is the same kind of deal. Armades effects are not something to just toss around, especially on big monsters. I notice you changed it to only banish face-up cards, but even then, a fully generic level 8 synchro version of Chaos Sorcerer that can also hit backrow is insanely strong. It is generally better than most other level 8 synchro options, which is not something I am comfortable with.

 

If either DeVille of Darkness of Nai would like to pass those cards through, I will leave it to their judgment, but I am not a fan of either of these in the pool, personally.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

I originally had Pegasus with a Breakthrough Skill kind of thing, but given Black's critique at the time, I opted to give it something similar to what Metaphys Horus does.

Can revert it back to that if that's the case, because I am well aware negation is something to tread on carefully and that's why I chose to do that originally (BTS).

 

In terms of Arcane Dragon, I can further tone it down a bit if it is indeed going to be problematic with the banishing stuff, despite the hard OPT.

Likely will just have it monsters, but then it'll just be a Synchro expy of Sorcerer, or I can make it non-generic material-wise (likely Dragon or DARK) and retain the effects it has now.

 

I can also strip the Armades effect off of it, or just revert it to the Ancient Gear clause (just block S/T cards, but that'll still do a bit).

 

-----

Should remember that DP does not have all of the threats that the actual game does (and that's how these were being designed in Advanced).  

If Nai or Darkness agree with you, I can make modifications to tone them down for play in here.

 

I should take a look at the pool cards thus far, so I get a better idea on things, but like I've probably noted a few times in the past, DP tends to act up on my end (such as with copy/pasting stuff or even typing). That's part of the reason why I don't go on DP on a regular basis.

 

Arcane is not yet up.

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

As a quick clarification, DP tournament format aims for a power level approximately equal to current Tellars.

 

With Pegasus, its effect really should not be Spell Speed 2, if that is what you meant by Breakthrough Skill.

[Queen of the Abyss]

As a quick clarification, DP tournament format aims for a power level approximately equal to current Tellars.

 

Y'know, considering not many can put the finger on this and not many people are aware of what is around here in DP, would a few posts to assist with this be desired?

[Darj]

Going to join the upcoming tournament with the Hakvortz archetype, also adding a couple of generic support cards:

 

EDIT: Changed my mind and I am no longer joining. Still want to submit the generic support so I will leave them here.

As for generics, just my whole Archive. Shouldn't be too many cards if you add them up from last time.

[The Seventh Samurai]

woe, returning after a few months and there's a banlist...or more of a whitelist?  and we can only submit 15 cards???? I have like, 5 decks and they're all 90% or more original.  I couldn't play this way

This is specifically for tourneys. We don't give a funk what you use otherwise.

 

Also, sorry everyone between my previous post and this one, been damn busy and will look through the submissions soon.

[Nathanael D. Striker]

Might as well submit some generics for use. If folks want to use them, feel free to upload them. First two are my own, last three are collab. So, 5 generic spots gone.

 

The Monastery in the Sky

Recurring Spectator

Performage Juggler Magician

Performage Chaos Juggler

Reaper in the Abyss

[Major's Shadow]

Submitting these for approval ATM, but this deck will be going through a bundle of testing! They are not finalized in their current state. I will post updates when they are made.

 

Galiants: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/340074-archetype-galiants-use-their-deck-against-them-rank-4lvl-4-beatdown/

 

Edit: I will be doing a ton of work on this archetype, so I do not endorse placing these on the official card list. I hope to find a means of making this deck more mechanically interesting, as well as balanced. I'll update this page once I'm done re-innovating the deck.

[Maeriberii Haan]

Just going to say it here as a heads-up, there will be a rework of the tournament pooling system starting off next week hopefully, and while it is still being considered whether it's necessary or not, there is going to be a chance that the pool will be reset (however, the initial submission slot will be increased as a result if this does happen).

 

Thank you for your attention, and I'm sorry for the inconveniences~
