3 Card Trooper

3 Machine Duplication

3 Reversal Quiz

3 Wall of Revealing Light

3 Self-Destruct Button

No Items

Fox Only

Final Destination

 

Why on earth is Green Baboon banned? And why won't you people start killing X-Saber Airbellum instead of Rescue Cat?

 

Thanks for the tip, I knew I was forgetting a few. I couldn't remember Reversal Quiz's name though.

 

And people, what is up with the "Malicious must be banned" nonsense? Is he somehow banworthy even at one? I don't see it.

 

NEW:

 

Ban Self-Destruct Button

Ban Reversal Quiz

Ban Machine Duplication

Ban Inferno Reckless Summon (it's an OTK machine)

Limit Green Baboon (had his effect confused with something else.)

why not just ban malicious? o.O

 

Why ban Malicious? You wouldn't suggest banning Shapesnatch' date=' would you?

 

but full explanation of Ben-Kei is needed... now!

 

Three letters: OTK.

 

Malicious is an arguable 3 or 0 card. 1 malicious is laughable. Who would deck it? Nobody smart is who.

 

So because Ben Kei should be punish simply because lolatkequips exist? o.O And this is fine?

Last time I checked, "nobody would use it" is not a banworthy offense. Shall we ban Larvae Moth and Shapesnatch on the grounds that nobody would use them either?

 

Cards should be allowed in as many copies as possible that do not damage the game. I'd love to hear your explanation for how 1 Malicious damages the game.

Ben Kei exists solely to OTK. That is all he can do.

How is 1 Exodia the forbidden one damaging to the game? If its its game winning mechanic, than for the games sake we must ban Final count down, and Destiny board too!

 

Or is it more disgraceful to have to look at 4 normal monsters on a ban list? Is that it?

 

I would also like to read how 2 Malicious is damaging to the game.

Nice job dodging the question and randomly jumping to unrelated topics.

this might be more screwed up than my list.

 

Yours is really screwed up.

 

but would you agree that this 1 is also messed up??

 

This list is much better than the crap Konami came up with.

 

As for this list. Why isnt Darklord Zerato banned? It is a 2800 ATK Raigeki with legs that is cheap and easy to summon. Raigeki as any good player knows is very bad for the game.

w/e' date=' shouldn be allure, charge of light brigade, or some other cards be in the list?

Stop throwing out random cards to be banned or limited, and actually think about the game.

 

Also, the game.

Hah, Malicious is 3 or 0? It's one of the only cards that could conceivably be a 3, 2, or 1, but never zero. Because for it to go to zero, it would first have to go to one, at which point it would have no reason to go further. It's not at two on the other hand because that would allow ridiculous synchro summoning and give this list many of the current format's problems.

 

Final Countdown and Destiny Board are acceptable because it takes skilled play to either stall out twenty turns, or protect the board from any threat to it. It takes no skill to simply draw a card (exodia) though.

 

On Darklord Zerato, it has restrictions similar to pot of avarice so i'll have to give it some thought.

No, they shouldn't be.

It in no way has restrictions that are similar to Pot of Avarice. Even on a good list it can still be summoned by other means. The Dark Creator, Escape from the Dark Dimension, D.D.R., The Creator. Unlike Pot of Avarice, Darklord Zerato can get around those restrictions quite easily.

 

Sure, you can get around the cost of Pot of Avarice, but that means is an acceptable drawback. DLZ's is not.

Alright then. You may have a point. I've always thought he seemed broken but I guess other cards just went over him in my mind.

 

Darklord Zerato banned.

 

I don't feel very comfortable about Diamond Dude's effect and the way it bypasses spell restrictions, especially aided by Plaguespreader Zombie. Does anybody think he's worth banlist attention?

You cant use the effect of that Spell until next turn and with the banworthy targets gone (Dimension Fusion most notably), I dont see it as a real problem.

Well you have targets like Ojama Delta Hurricane!! and the like, which were dead draws in previous DD decks, but with Plaguespreader you can put the dead draws on top for a guaranteed field wipe. So some of the more devastating spells that saw no use in say, DDT, could be lethal with the new cards.
