OCG January 1st Banlist


Recommended Posts

What we know so far

 

12339141_1647741065475824_51164784822343

 

 

Forbidden:

 

#16 Shock Master

Performage Plushfire

Performage Damage Juggler

 

 

Rest of the list will be up when the KDE site updates

 

Basically OCG f***ed up. That being said, while I never felt Shock NEEDED a ban, it getting banned isn't awful for the game. Plush and Juggler would have both been fine at 1, there was no need to go full bananas on the deck. So plush is banned? People will just run Ariadne and make it counter trap.deck now. 

 

Even with a construct unban, this is too damn much. Hopefully they don't ban chain and Exciton too? Idk, it seems a lot like a unification to me

Actually this list ain't that bad lol tbh, juggler is a bad ban, plush and shock deserved every bit, rest is unknown but it will be good to see some new decks being tried in the new ocg format.

Plush deserved it how? With a limit, the Luster Pendulum play was dead dead dead. It was disgusting TCG style product pushing. Shock wasn't really needed. Unless they also limit Wizard you know OCG only cares about the money.

 

Maybe Noden can come back to 1 now? Construct Goyo and MoF have no reason to be banned. Maybe TIV

 

Also what funking new decks? BA and Monarchs were already the 2nd and 3rd best deck....new decks my ass

i mean i can get behind a plush ban, if it's the only major hit (not that there aren't other problem cards)...

 

But you wanna talk about really bad 3 -> 0 moves? Damage Juggler is a prime example of that.

Agreed, it's a pretty terrible hit. Lavaval or not, I don't feel it was nessesary. I wonder how long Azathoth has, it's basically shock for monsters only you can't negate it

 

Not any worse than Construct or Exciton

It said the rest will be published on the official Konami website. They didn't said "the rest of the changes". It could mean the rest remains unchanged or will be changed a lot. If I understand correctly and guessing from the Japanese reaction on this info, I think the rest will remain the same as the previous limit regulation. 

 

Also, the previous Vjump with limit regulation (October) also has the same quote "The rest will be published on the official website"

 

As long as my Lavaval lives, idc hehe

Would not mind that at all. BA is a cancer and with PEPE being eradicated like this, it needs multiple hammers to the damn knee. 

 

Anyway outside of Shock, which was an acceptable, but not necessary ban, this list so far is January 2014 (TCG) levels of Trash. Like their banning of Ravine and limiting of every Ruler related card was the only time outside of Plants when I've seen this level of brutality again. More so January though because Rulers were very high tier 1 in September like pepe here.

 

Juggler kept a delicate balance with Wavering Eyes, that's now entirely gone. Also the bulb says these are the new bans, not these are SOME of the new bans, so Eyes is alive.

 

Plush while needing a OPT, didn't come close to needing a ban. With only one, you cannot luster it, and with no luster, the main ways you were going to pop it were eyes or wizard, both of which should be limited. It was a knee jerk overkill reaction, that showcases Konami's incompetence, because guess what, PEPE were a problem last format too. They should have limited Juggler last list and made sure that the deck wouldn't create problems post Monkey...but no. 

 

2/10 on Awful list thus far, I'm not even sure what they could unban to fix this s***.

You were the Chosen One OCG! It was said you would bring balance to the game not leave it in Darkness! Remove from the banlist, not add to it! I loved you...you were my format, OCG.

 

That aside, would the deck even have motivation to run Chain anymore? Just seems like the best play is like putting apex avian on top

i will just play this format in complete silence till other list lands and turns s*** even again, not bad list but 3 changes 1 being bad and no return for the bucks is s*** dispute. Maybe just stick to monarchs for the time being and enjoy.

Would argue that both Juggler and Plush were sheet hits, GDI Konami, my Construct still banned!
