April 2014 Banlist Speculation Thread


Recommended Posts

Exodia has a way too big OTK rate, i have yet to see somebody score an OTK with non-nurse burn..
Burn is just a general mechanic in cardgames (Mage in Hearthstone for example)...
Its normal, just because its annoying doesn't mean it needs to be banned

 

It's not just "annoying"

 

The issue with decks such as Burn, same as Exodia and Countdown, is that they lack almost any sort of player interaction. In an ideal state players should have a good chance of being able to respond to any offensive play the opponent does, be it summoning a monster, attacking or using an effect. Alt win decks defy this because they just play by themselves and there is no player interaction. 

 

I could probably write an essay about this but I'm bad at essays, maybe someone else will be kind enough to pick up from where i began.

Your friendly neighborhood writer is here for that at any other occasion, but I'm feeling extremely lazy, so I'll just leave it to you as a tl;dr instance:

 

Burn is bad for the game, exodia is bad for the game, the entire notion is bad for the concept of the game, ban the f*** out of them.

If anything, it would be interesting if it looked a little like this:

 

BANNED

 

Big Dragons:Everybody hates them, so yeah.

Heavy: You can just stay banned.

Warning: Well, Judgement got banned and it could negate just about anything, so what do we do with the -2000->negate a Special Summon version? this one is kinda meh, so I'm not really expecting a hit on it at all.

 

LIMITED

 

Geargiarmour/Geargiagear: You could do one, the other, or both. They both are crazy cards for what they do.

Tenki: either at 1 or 2. I'm sure plenty of people would love to see this hit. Probably not going to get hit with Bujins being a thing.

Sphere: this card can be easily searched and gets you a couple of monsters when MST'd.

Dragon Ravine: DRulers are gone, so you can start integrating this back into the meta (it would be fine at 1/2).

Trishula: for s***s and giggles.

 

SEMI-LIMITED

 

Tower: It's a great card and all, but the recycle AND draw makes it a little crazy.

E-Tele: This card makes another Karakuri OTK variant, so yeah.

Burei/Bureido: Or instead of hitting E-Tele, you could just hit the root of the problem. I played a Tele-Karakuri variant, so I know how bad they can get (and those geargia variants aren't very helpful either).

Mst: With Artifacts coming out (whenever that is), this'll just be another way to destroy them while set.

Tenki: see above

Dragon Ravine: see above

Big Eye: It would be a great thing to be hit, but doesn't necessarily have to be with Rulers gone.

Malicious/Plaguespreader: Void Ogre Dragon and Beelze (especially Beelze) are going to be irritating things if these stay where they are.

 

It would be funny if they swapped BLS for Chaos End Dragon for a banlist (or at least for a little bit), and compulse maybe to 2 would be ok.

why would e tele ever need to be hit right now

[spoiler=This is a thing]

It mostly has to deal with that TeleKarakuri variant I mentioned. With the right hand (It doesn't take much for that, just an E-Tele, Solar Wind Jammer, Ninishi, and any other karakuri with a level less than or equal to 4), you could open with 1-3 Burei, 2-3 Bureido, and some other third thing (I used Landoise to stop monster effects). If your opponent didn't have a response, or you stopped the response, then you were done. And  this happened at least every duel.

Fun, but degenerate. There's no reason why a deck should be allowed to make plays like this with ridiculous frequency. [/spoiler]

 

Also Pirika is going to be a thing.

 

Edit: whoops, double post.

>Pirika is going to be a thing
>Telekarakuri remotely matter and the problem with Karakuri isn't Burei/Bureido

there is not enough ice in the world to ease the ache you have given my sides
