@crabs, perhaps they figured teledad and lightsworns would put it in its place, which they have.

 

also, limiting gyzarus wouldnt do anything. it can always be sent to the deck via equisite(sic) or whatever other troll cards they use. plus, when does gyzarus ever die? it just tags out.

ban or nothing.

... please dont get me started on grammar.

if you can come up with one reasonable reason why i need to capitalize letters and use apostrophes, ill be glad to do it. it isnt easier to read, and it isnt easier to write. in fact, its counter-intuitive to both. aside from that, i spell fine, and when i dont, i use a (sic) to indicate that i dont know or care to look up how to spell it. ill use a sentence fragment, but only to provide emphasis. any good writer knows that. my sentence structure is fine besides, and my points are very clear. my text provides no difficulty to comprehend.

 

i type how i speak. do you capitalize letters in speech? do you use apostrophes? what would one even sound like? theyre useless in almost all cases. sound the word out, troll, and youll be able to figure out what it means.

 

also, this has been told to me once before, but, im unfamiliar with the abbreviation "itt"

 

and last, on topic:

ban teleport.

False.

 

and it isnt easier to write.

 

You just can't handle the elegant manner in which my fingers tap-dance around the keyboard' date=' wot wot?

 

in fact, its counter-intuitive to both.

 

To you, perhaps. However, we have already established that you cannot handle elegant tap-dancing, so that is rather irrelevant, is it not?

 

aside from that' date=' i spell fine, and when i dont, i use a (sic) to indicate that i dont know or care to look up how to spell it.

That is not what [sic] means, dear chap; it is used when quoting an outside source to note that some sort of error was present in the original source and was not introduced in transcription.

 

my text provides no difficulty to comprehend.

 

MAIN SCREEN TURN ON !!

 

HOW ARE YOU GENTLEMEN !!

 

YOU ARE ON THE PATH TO DESTRUCTION !!

 

WHAT YOU SAY !!

 

MY TEXT PROVIDES NO DIFFICULTY TO COMPREHEND !!

 

YOU HAVE NO CHANCE TO SURVIVE MAKE YOUR TIME !!

 

i type how i speak. do you capitalize letters in speech?

 

Do you not use capital letters in speech?

 

Note that most written transcriptions of spoken word include capital letters' date=' so convention dictates that yes, capital letters [i']are[/i] used in speech.

 

do you use apostrophes? what would one even sound like?

 

Apostrophes actually do affect pronunciation. The words "wont" and "won't" are pronounced differently.

 

theyre useless in almost all cases. sound the word out' date=' troll, and youll be able to figure out what it means.

[/quote']

 

Not if you say "wont", I won't.

 

Also, considering how low in quality your posts are in the first place, asking us to expend extra effort trying to determine what drivel you are spouting is simply ludicrous, dear boy.

It stands for "In This Topic".

I see the big dragons going to 1 (DAD, JD, maybe Stardust), teleport to 1 or 2, and malicious to 2. They may put Card of Safe Return at 1. And they may also do something with plants. I dunno. If they hit CoSR, they'll say they've hit their quota with plants. Oh, and Book of Moon, Royal Decree, Mage Power, and Nobleman of Crossout will do their random insignificant dance around the 2's and 3's area.

It's entirely opinion as to whether or not capital letters and less prominent forms of punctuation actually help legibility. Thus, shut up. Anyone can type with big, shiny capital letters, but to me, it's obtrusive to both read and write, and my opinions generally mean more to me than yours do. I'm not going to capitalize a damn thing for your sake, unless its exclamatory, or simply for emphasis.

 

 

@silly old reference:

fine:

the presence or lack there-of of capital letters, apostrophes, and other such silly things does not inhibit a reader's ability to comprehend my writing. it does not alter the difficulty with which it can be perceived.

 

 

@crabs

why no to banning teleport? its overpowered. searching a range of 1-3 tuners from your deck is disgusting. the only other card i can think of with that much power is the kuriboh flute, and then they arent tuners, so who cares. name a few other quickplay spell cards that special summon something this powerful straight from the deck for no real cost. (in before removal argument: its irrelevant whether or not its removed when it becomes a freaking stardust by the end of the turn)

 

@kirby, my mistake, but then what is the point of even having the topic open if we cant discuss the predictions? am i mistaken in my assumption as to what format means?

are we then just discussing what numbers of cards decks will run? thats a bit silly, given that we dont even know the ban list, and everyone runs their own little variation on the same basic deck, so precises numbers dont particularly matter in the face of someone using 0 teles and another using 3.

Spending two cards - E-Tele and whatever your non-Tuner happens to be - on a Synchro Summon is perfectly acceptable.

Unconfirmed Ban List at the moment.

 

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/trifox/MarchFirst.jpg

 

New Forbidden:

-Cyber Dragon

-Dark Armed Dragon

-Heavy Storm

-Royal Oppression

 

New Limited:

-Foolish Burial

-Goblin Zombie

-Goyo Guardian

-Mezuki

-Witch of the Black Forest

-Emergency Teleport

-Card of Safe Return

-Cold Wave

 

New Semi-Limited:

-D.D. Warrior Lady

-Gladiator Beast Gyzarus

-Gladiator Beast Bestiari

-Armageddon Knight

-D-Hero - Malicious

-Machine Duplication

-Future Fusion

 

New Unlimited:

-Card Trooper

-Necroface

-Exodia, the Forbidden One

-Mystical Space Typhoon

-Book of Moon

-Nobleman of Crossout

 

My thoughts on the new unconfirmed list:

 

Banning Cyber Dragon is a bit of an odd choice. Yes, it's abusable with the synchro mechanic but the limited card was barely used as is so I think this was uncalled for. Also makes the themed deck completely dead. Not sure if this will transfer to North America as we are just getting Chimeratech Fortress Dragon.

 

Dark Armed Dragon was asking to be banned multiple lists ago and it's about freaking time they took him out.

 

Heavy Storm hitting the list is also questionable to me. Over committing your back row should be punished, imo and anti-meta decks are extremely annoying without any reliable means to take out their lock downs. However, having your outs be taken out by a single card can be quite annoying.

 

Royal Oppression being banned is also questionable to me and was good tech choice for anti-meta decks among other things. It was keeping the Special Summoning in check but I absolutely hate this card so I'm partially happy this card is gone.

 

Foolish Burial, Goblin Zombie, Mezuki, Goyo Guardian, Card of Safe Return, and Emergency Teleport were all asking to be hit in some way or another. However, these changes pretty much kills the Zombie Deck type as they lose their recycling & tutor abilities as well as their draw engine. E.Teleport was necessary to limit but it also kills the Psychic Deck.

 

Witch of the Black Forest is okay now since Dark Armed Dragon is gone.

 

Cold Wave is also questionable to me since I don't think it was particularly wrong in the decks that it was utilized in. It was a good tech choice for GB's among other things.

 

Hate the D.D. cards so semi-limiting D.D. Warrior is an annoyance but it doesn't see a whole lot of play outside of a warrior toolbox/light based deck.

 

Gyazarus hitting 2 doesn't really effect anything, imo, since it gets recycled out for 2 GB's after clearing the field. Would have preferred seeing this being limited but I guess GB's need their outs as well.

 

Bestiari being semi-limited is not surprising but I don't think it will have that large of an impact on the Deck type. It will be an annoyance for GB users but this is a necessary move.

 

Armageddon Knight at 2 was needed in the Japanese format as most decks were abusing that with Malicious, Plaguespreader Zombie, and DAD. Personally, it doesn't effect me since I only run 1-2 of him anyways.

 

D.Hero - Malicious at 2 again was the wise choice due to the abundant abuse with D-Draw+E.Teleport->Level 8 Synchro.

 

Machine Duplication at 2 should be okay but this revives the Card Trooper strategies of old since Card Trooper is now unlimited.

 

Future Fusion at 2 is okay again since Cyber Dragon is banned so no more abuse with Chimeratech Overdragon and the Jinzo Returner+Jinzo FTK/OTK decks. This is going to help my Destiny End Dragoon deck but this also helps E-Hero decks and with Heavy Storm and DAD gone it'll see less destruction but it depends if people start main decking 2-3 copies of MST.

 

Card Trooper at 3 is questionable to me especially now that Machine Duplication is semi-limited. Helps LS though I doubt any of them will run it.

 

Necroface is fine at 3 and same with Exodia's head.

 

I guess MST at 3 is suppose to make up for the loss of Heavy Storm though cramming deck space for this is going to be annoying. I guess more Giant Trunade plays now.

 

I don't see anything wrong with Book of the Moon at 3's.

 

I don't know if I quite like Nobleman of Crossout at 3's. The fast format might be slowed dramatically with this ban list so setting monsters might be a more common play though I guess running the gamble that your opponent is going to set a monster will balance out main decking multiple copies of this card.

 

Overall, I'm liking this ban list since it should hopefully slow the format down dramatically but again this is an unconfirmed list so it may be different once the final one comes out.
