Wind-Up Hunter


Recommended Posts

You kill of one of their main Xyz resources.

A Wind-Up deck without Rat becomes weak, very weak, the combo plays become useless and you have no method of recycling cards.

If you hit the Hunter, and ban it, the deck loses the hand loop, and a card that wasn't helping them otherwise anyway. Then if you remove the Zenmaighty (to 1) you lose the silly OTKs. At this point, the deck remains as a quick, albeit weak in terms of strength, Xyz spam deck, and it can actually be what it was meant to be. Rat remains, allowing them to have SOME topdecking ability, and it actually allows them to make plays to keep up with other decks.

I feel like I should awnser with "It encourages creativity" but then I laughed.

You still havent found another loop. With Zenmaighty at one, how many people with actually run Hunter? Unless they release another broken Windup, which knowing Konami they will, but hopefully they learned from this, Hunter is really quite useless with Zenmaighty at one.

Why would I even need to now, in the current cardbase?

As it stands, Zenmaighty's still at 3, as is Hunter, as is every Wind-Up.

In a future card base, it's possible they could create another loop. It's also possible that it could happen in the middle of any format. Why not just ban it so they don't have to restrain themselves on card design?

If we lose the loop, nobody will run hunter because it becomes bad.
If we lose hunter people will still run everything else, there will just be no loop.
This is a case of when people thought that Infernities should lose everything from Archfiend to Necromancer, then Konami stopped them by limiting 1 card.
Why limit the looping cards when you can get rid of the looped cards? This is why Trish should've been banned before Fishborg and stuff were. People kept finding retarded loops and abusing it. Konami finally figured this out and banned Trish.
This is also probably why Brio is still around, it's not the abused card, it's the abuser. You don't loop Brio until you win, you use brio to make loops.

But like I said, Hunter in itself is a good card. Even if it was banned, if Zenmaighty went to one, Hunter really wouldnt be used that much.

And I think you're evading me. In a format with Zenmaighty at one, you cant find a decent loop that abuses Hunter.

EDIT: Thank you B. Hunter is in the same position as Brio. Thats kinda what I was trying to say.

I DID NOT SAY THAT.
Hunter is in the same position as Trishula as it is the one getting looped.
Brio is in the same position as Zenmaighty as it is the one that enables the loops.
Read.
