ENMaker Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can activate 1 of these effects.● You can destroy Spell/Trap Cards on the field, up to the number of "HERO" monsters you control, except this card.● Add 1 "HERO" monster from your Deck to your hand. Is there really any reason for this to be banned at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryusei the Morning Star Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 Stratos was NOT f***ing banned for his search effect. GOD Damn You see how good Twin Twister is, that first effect is a non targeting version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ENMaker Posted October 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 Stratos was NOT f***ing banned for his search effect. GOD Damn You see how good Twin Twister is, that second effect is a non targeting version. Because I said he was banned for his search effect. Could come back to 1 without doing much damage surely seen as to even hit 1 it needs to have another non-Masked Hero already there, and if someone has 2 or 3 backrow and none of them are live or chainable to summons then there's a reasonable chance they're just bluffs and losing them because of that isn't an actual issue with the card. Hitting scales is something we need more cards able to do as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryusei the Morning Star Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 Idk man. Stratos last OCG format was annoying AF since Coth was a free MST every damn turn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryusei the Morning Star Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 Do hero players ever do anything except whine about stratos?Nope. In OCG they whine that it's to disruptive to their backrow in TCG tehy whine they don't have it. We just need to swap the haters from both sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ENMaker Posted October 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 I don't even play Heros, just wanted some sort of discussion about it since it seemed relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 Because I said he was banned for his search effect. -I- always thought he was banned for his search effect, specifically because of the lack of a once-per-turn clause and the fact he activated on Normal or Special Summon, letting it be abused by a ton of effects. Then again, I always forget it has the other effect entirely. Then again, that's the appeal to Stratos to me. A consistent, searchable, searcher with decent stats and the desirable WIND Attribute that HEROs seem to otherwise lack other than Avian. Or Fusions that need WIND Heroes or Avian.

Ryusei the Morning Star Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 It can be unbanned. When TCG gets OCG levels of Traps....which will never happen as long as Duster/Heavy are banned...which will stay true as long as Tew controls KoA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine Jesse Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 I think he was just banned for both. On-summon +1's aren't really banworthy no matter the archetype anymore imo, but being able to pop S/Ts at well might've driven him over the edge? Dunno, wasn't playing much when he was banned.

TF2_The_Scout Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 Oh, so it's a Harpie's Feather Duster + E-Emergency Call with no OPT clause and it can activate when normal or special summoned. Why do people want this again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do people want this again?HFD is pushing it. Try non-targeting MST or maybe Twin Twister. With the Shadow Mist limit, it's usually the former People also RARELY use the second effect twice. It could come back, but seeing how much people already jabroni about a card like Denko shutting down backrow...more removal isn't ideal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryusei the Morning Star Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 Shadow Mist got limited?Unfortunately. Konami seems to have a problem with overkill on both sides of the ocean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Shadow Mist got limited? Not in TCG as far as I remember. HERO is actually even more out of the radar for hits this last list than Satellars were.I'm looking at the TCG list right now on the official site on another tab just to make it foolproof http://www.yugioh-card.com/en/limited/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno, wasn't playing much when he was banned.He's right, this guy was killed for the versatility. It's why he went to 1 in the first place, as Utimate Offering made it way too strong. The only reason I want him is to make Great Tornado and Divine Wind playable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizardonx Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Banning stratos is a joke when we have stuff like Nekroz(RIP), Majespecters, and Emems where they run 5 or 6 searchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarlandChaos Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Personally, the only reasons I want this guy back are a) I was not playing the game when he wasn't banned and would like to witness it firsthand, and b) I really just want something actually good that can go into Great Tornado or Divine Wind/Kamikaze. Don't really care much for Blast, tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas★Zero Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 This also had D-HERO Malicious to search as well for D-Draw to combo off of which led to the Air blade deck its known for... ...on my end I do wish that Konami would make a new alright Level 4 Wind HERO that's not as bad as Stratos.

Ryusei the Morning Star Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 I had the weirdest dream yesterday. Konami does make a Stratos Replacement. Wind. 4. 1700. 800. 1) When this card is normal or special summoned: excavate the top card from your deck. If it's a lv4 monster, special summon it, otherwise send it to the graveyard 2) During either players turn: Banish this monster to target 1 HERO monster in your graveyard: add it to your hand. Hard Effect OPT What was amusing is that TCG banned it in one format Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
