evilfusion Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Lots of greatly frustrated players. Kind of like when the Extra Deck got limited to 15 in the first place, except much, much greater. 15 is already plenty tight. There would become an intense rigidity in how one builds the Extra Deck. Basically you'd only be able to use the absolute most useful/powerful Xyz or Synchros with absolutely no wiggle room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Everyone quits YGO. It's generally just far too restrictive and places a massive weight on the design team. ew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not-so-Radiant Arin Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 15 is fine, 10 is just...restrictive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Account is Unplayable Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I've heard some dumb ideas for the extra deck, but this is by far the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Extra deck should be 15 or 20. 10 is pretty much an even bigger middle finger to Synchros, a LOT moreso than Xyz, though they both hate it as do Fusions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I side the Fortress Dragon with my Cydras to make room for 1 more Synchro/Xyz?"

Mysty Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Overall, limiting the Extra Deck to 10 would absolutely destroy some decks (E•HEROs, Synchrons), but it would force people to prioritize which monsters they use based on their decktypes instead of throwing in just staple Synchros and Staple Xyz. Maybe people would start using actual boss monsters in their deck as opposed to making their Extra Deck their only source of powerful monsters. While I like this idea ideally (since the decks that this seems to completely invalidate have already seemed to be invalidated by the speed of the meta), this would just make everyone pissed and would make a lot of people quit.

Toffee. Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Yugioh becomes more anime-accurate. Extra Deck's limit is removed. You have to draw into Extra Deck monsters you wish to Summon. Extra Deck goes [i]inside[/i] the Main Deck. ?????????????? [img]http://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/38582IDunnoLOL.jpg[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoAreYou? Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Size should be 20 card because of these f***ing cards that are all staples. -__- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizarus Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 What's the matter with the extra deck being restrictive? It would make it less of a toolbox than it already is. Obviously heroes would get hit the hardest, but I actually like the idea of having a 10 card Extra deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Throwing in brain dead staples into the Extra deck, and having a card for every possible situation doesn't encourage thinking at all . If anything, shrinking the Extra deck down to 10 would require more thinking, forcing you to prioritize the cards that are best suited for your deck, and limiting the amount of targets instant-synchro/XYZ cards like TGU has.

TheTurtleOnceCalledGod Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I'm pretty sure they aren't planning to change extra deck size any time soon, if ever. 15 is good because it also matches the typical side-deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Restricting the extra deck to ten or less would make a few people quit but they won't be replaced thus the game would start dying, that's why it's at 15 and could go up.
