Tribute Summon Mechanic


Recommended Posts

Discuss pros and cons of Tribute Summoning, and if what hypothetical measures could Konami take to improve them?
Do they have a future in the game?
Extra Deck usage has been the focus of the game for the last 5 years or so, providing strong boss-level monsters to the game in a way that can be toolboxed without affecting Deck consistency at all. All to the point that, the game has become too dependant on Special Summoning.
Are Monarchs destined to be the only survivors of this (even though they are kind of, outdated now too)?
Don't limit yourselves to answering questions I've made here. Comment as much as you like =0

In short: Discuss Tribute Summons.



Taking advantage of the "rule-free week" this section is getting, I'll promote my set at Realistic Cards (which is related to this topic anyways)

Those cards are... Terrible design. Too lazy to go into detail, but the whole point of this mechanic is to have a cost of some sort. Completely removing said cost is just bleh. Especially when you basically backhanded Photon Sanctuary.

Photon Sanctuary lives on, too, though not in the same way as Monarchs.

It made Main Deck monsters a bit more even against Xyzs and the dying Synchros. Which ideally speaking, is not a good thing, but in the current mess of the game, it doesn't seem too far fetched to me.
Also, things like Treeborn Frog would not be outclassed from this (not that Treeborn Frog's current position isn't for debate).


In any case, my focus is the rest of the OP. I guess, I should have the link at the end so people don't think it's the only thing to see here...
