Opening this tournament to test an "Ideal banlist" that is being discussed in this thread.

Rules
- Single elimination matches; best of 3 duels.
- No time limit.
- Games should be played on DN.
- DN format: OCG and TCG cards are allowed. The goal is to test current OCG archetypes such as Necloths and Ritual Beasts.
- No Burn/Exodia/Stall/etc. decks.
- You don't need to send decklists or screenshots.
- The following banlist is in effect:

- Sign up by posting your YCM and DN usernames in this thread.

The tournament has begun. Not feeling like setting a limit date to get the duels done, but please try to arrange your fights as soon as possible so it doesn't take like a month or more to finish.

Star Seraph Sovereign at 3 lol

obviously in

YCM: Self-Destruct Button

DN: Eisprinz

 

Also, a minor nitpick: I think Exodia and Burn have their place in the Meta, and if someone wants to play them thats okay,(even though they suck atm) I think banning them from tournaments just because they're annoying is not very nice.

Well, a goal of the tournament is to test the banlist changes, and applying with Exodia/Burn/etc. decks wouldn't contribute to that. I don't think it is needed to confirm that those kind of decks can win. Plus, they are annoying to fight against, and it's not fun.

Well, I did say until next Monday and it is Tuesday already. I wanted to secretly give it a bit more time just in case there were players interested in the last minute, but I guess it won't make the big difference so we may as well begin.

 

I will proceed with the pairings now.

 

EDIT:

Done, will post the challonge bracket in the OP.
