Heavy Storm banned

[Exiro]

I didn't see a topic about this one yet, while it seems to me like the most significant change.

These days I'm addressing the 'Heavy Storm @ 0' part of the format at my Blog, so you might want to check that out too.

But share your thoughts about Heavy Storm @ 0 here.

Gogogo.

[Great Unclean One: VK]

They switched it out for Dark Hole.

Bad move their.

People will start to overextend their S/T if their dumb, and Dark Hole will allow more OTKs.

Thanks Konami.

[TMD (Barushi)]

Hm... I agree with VK

[Just Crouton]

MST is now @2...and it can't be Starlight'd. Now, there's 2 MSTs and 3 Dusts.

[GenzoTheHarpist]

I never feared heavy storm once starlight came out. This is no different.

[jabber2033]

I'd rather have Heavy than Dark Hole...

The loss of Heavy will probably mean that Traps like Mirror Force/Torrential are harder to get around.

Then again, we do have 3 BRD...so I'm nuetral at the moment.

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

i want Heavy back.....

backrow are always a problem. Monsters are by-passable.

[Psycho Shocker Android]

I'm unsure, this could be the best or the worst format depending on how important heavy storm was needed to keep in check S/T overextension.

[BulletMan]

Let's see...

I first didn't like this, because I couldn't really do much against the opponent.

But I realized that in my Skilltown, I have 2 MST's, 2 DC's and a Trunade along with 3 Dark Bribes. I have much more S/T than now. Still wish I had Heavy, but I think I can use Skilltown to gain much advantage.

This. Seriously. What else do we have that is splashable backrow removal? A second MST does not make up for the lack of Heavy Storm. Giant Trunade doesn't destroy Spells and Traps so outside of OTKs, you have to deal with the stuff next turn. Cold Wave is pretty much the same but you have to deal with the Spells and Traps they stop a few turns later and it stops you from playing Spells and Traps. For anyone who thinks Cold Wave is broken, don't you just think that maybe the stuff it is helping is at fault and not Cold Wave itself? With Monsters, we don't need Dark Hole back to deal with them. We have plenty of splashable mass Monster removal.

I hope they do this actually and reban Dark Hole.

[Luis2]

I like killing a monster by battle or a monster effect, rather than a spell card, unless I really have to use that Lightning Vortex.

at irst i thought that banning heavy is so bad for the game. But actually guys, banning heavy storm is SO good, we started playing without heavy here and it is so fun

damn that heavy was a real pain in the a**, always worrying about your backrow even if it was 1 card.
My Dimensional Eatos is so happy now

Hmm. Malevolent Catastrophe? Yes or no?

Starlight will be ran much more so Catastrophe is a terrible idea! Maybe Giant Trunade?

Why would starlight be run more if storm is gone?

Dark Hole unbanned? Black Rose Dragon now at 3? I think they would be good enough reasons.

[Fraz]

And yet My Body as a Shield is playable in those situations all the time, but starlight is situational and slow seeing as its a trap.

True dat!


Also, DIE KONAMI DIE!!!

I didn't say that MBaaS is unplayable, did I?

Both cards work. You will have to chose whether you want more versatility or power.

SLR has been testing great for me so far.
