(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 So, this arose from the Evilswarm Exciton Knight discussion: In your opinion, what is the worst format/metagame combination that this game has experience thus far. I would have to say the Dragon Ruler format, because that is the first format where I tried playing competitively, and it was simply dreadful for me. Discuss.

Dementuo Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Either $2000 Lightsworn format or E-Dragon/Spellbook format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Βyakuya Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 E-Dragon format. Was too scared to play in Rated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector Nightmare Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 ...gonna have to go with Dragon Ruler format. At least from all formats since the beginning of the Synchro era, that is the worst in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildflame Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 E-Dragon/Spellbook format was the worse for me personally. 2nd place was probably the WU loop one. Note that I started playing competitively only around Plant Synchro format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premier Alexander Romanov Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Dragon Rulers. Hands-down. I was scared to play that format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Airblade Turbo must take some beating. Thank god it was so short. People saying Dragon Rulers are just sore because it was so recent, there have been infinitely worse formats, aside from Airblade there was stuff like Infernity/FrogTK format and stuff like that.

Master Hyperion Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 The E-Dragon format was horrible, but if you people think that was the worst format, then you have not seen the horror that was the Frog format What's that? You didn't won the coin toss and didn't draw your Veiler on your first turn? Summon Substitoad and another monster to mill my entire deck and keep reviving my Ronintoadin and tributing it for Mass Driver's effect to burn you for 8000+ damage gg no re Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted March 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Funny enough, since the deck I use in tournaments IRL is Chain Burn, I did quite well in the Dragon format. Then came Gremlin Gadget and 104... *shudders* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad formats, yes, but there were worse for sure. Hell, even TeleDAD was probably worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Ash Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 imo inzektor/wind-up loop was the worst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delibirb Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Mayruka for me, personally. I really hated Dragon Ruler format(s), and still hate the Rulers themselves, but that Mayruka... Or was that not a format? Regardless the format that I ended up playing against it so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Actually the Inzektors etc format was really bad as well but it wasn't down to Inzektors, it was down to ridiculous Wind-Up loop, 3 Rabbit 3 Tourguide rabbit and Chaos Dragons sacking Future Fusion everywhere. Inzektors were by far the weakest deck of the "big 4" at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Noel- Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 The format that 8 Elemental Dragons shone, and Spellbooks still have Judgment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeppeli Gyro Supreme Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 Actually the Inzektors etc format was really bad as well but it wasn't down to Inzektors, it was down to ridiculous Wind-Up loop, 3 Rabbit 3 Tourguide rabbit and Chaos Dragons sacking Future Fusion everywhere. Inzektors were by far the weakest deck of the "big 4" at that time. It was favored at Worlds because there weren't any exclusives (which were banned for the event obviously) that required the deck to draw its full potential. That's how we ended up with what I believe was 6/8 top 8 Inzektors. We also had 6/8 for Worlds with E-Dragons, too. Funny enough, there were 2 Glad Beast formats for Worlds.

Nathanael D. Striker Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 Black, I was about to say Tele-DAD until you mentioned it. From what I've heard, Infernity has always been bad so there is a problem format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 Any format when only 1 player plays the game. Frog, Makyura, Yatachaos, etc. Also hated Drooler format, but it was mainly out of boredom since that format lasted waay too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 People blow Inzektors outta proportion. They really weren't as bad as people made them out to be. Uh the only format I actively played in was Dragon Rulers AFTER the ban so I can't really speak other than that I hated em. I typically dislike Dragon-heavy formats in general. Banlists hardly even hurt anything for Dragons, but they are still needed. The only banlist that hurt Dragons was when Victory Dragon was banned.

BANZAI!!!! Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 I would have to say Tele-DAD, mainly because it was the only really awful format that I actually tried playing semi-competitively in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 So I can't believe I'm saying this but sometime soon I want to go back to these formats to see how bad they played. Like I wanna fight Dragon Rulers at fool power and Tele-DaD and anything else that sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not-so-Radiant Arin Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 you're all idiots. Airblade was chronologically the worst format because it was the only Tier 0 Deck players had access to. Tele-DAD was basically the first person who played DAD loses.

Love of Ghibli Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 While I never actually had to play against Airblade. The worst I had to deal with were those two weeks where Gateway was at 3 and Legendary Six Sams were out. Just constantly throwing cards on the table and searching. How unseemly.
