CrabHelmet Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Ban everything in PTDN and everything released since PTDN. This leads to massive collateral damage and a boatload of perfectly balanced cards being banned. On the other hand, it also removes virtually all of the largest problems, since everything changed so drastically once DAD was released. Also, 2007 was vastly superior to everything that happened since 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Didn't you have a topic like this around a year ago now? It seems oddly familiar... And yes, how I long for the days when Monarchs were meta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, since 2008 and 2009 were so awful that going back to before 2008 and 2009 is a pretty obvious idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~ P O L A R I S ~ Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Well, this's certainly a repost. Nevertheless, it's worth mentioning that this's incredibly lazy and impractical of a "solution" and that just because a large number of guilty culprits are from PTDN and later doesn't mean ALL cards PTDN and post-PTDN are unacceptable.

It's crude and inelegant with a massive cost, but it is doubtlessly effective and is guaranteed to solve the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azuh Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 At least Konami has realised that Generic Synchros aren't the way to go anymore. All the newer Synchros aren't generic and now require specific Tuners or non-Tuners. Too bad they realised after 1 and a half years since the release of The Duelist Genesis. Really, the only Synchro Monster(s) that should be generic is possibly Gaia Knight and Naturia Gaodrake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My biggest problem is that far too many Synchros generate a good amount of card advantage, making the -1 cost of Synchro Summoning even more irrelevant than it already was by virtue of most Synchro Material Monsters being floaters.

-Berserker- Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 I remember this topic. I don't support because my favorite monster card ever (Eatos) is still in mint condition. I know this is a very selfish reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaos Pudding Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Sure, it would be simple, but it would also be mindless. Isn't that what we're trying to work against? And in any case, I would prefer YGO to be more like MtG in that it is built in block format, with the cards being designed around working together in blocks, and less about being able to compete against power creep.

But it's still crude and inelegant with a massive cost and leaves us with curious means of what to do for any future sets, do we just end the game entirely? Would that be a good idea? If we're not to comb through sets and meticulously select which cards are causing the problems, we might as well. I, for one, have grown awfully fond of this game over time and haven't invested in other TCGs like your good self with your highbrow Magic. What would us "crude and inelegant" folk do once you killed the future of our equally "crude and inelegant" game? Would we then take out Magic too once a slightly questionably balanced set came along? Much better to squabble over where the problem is. Just sayin'.
