J-Max Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Been quite a while since I last did one of these. "Select 5 cards from your Deck and reveal them to your opponent. Your opponent selects 1 card among them. Add that card to your hand and discard the other cards." Back in the day this card was a horribly Broken Mess. Back when not many cards at all were Forbidden and people would just pick the 5 Spell or Trap Cards they liked. Also being in the Graveyard made the sent cards easy pickings for cards like Monster Reborn and Call of the Haunted. With a larger amount of cards now Banned, I may just be able to salvage this...... "Select 5 cards from your Deck and reveal them to your opponent. Your opponent selects 1 card among them. Add that card to your hand and return the others to your Deck. Your opponent can Draw 1 card. You can only use the effect of "Painful Choice" once per Duel. This gives the opponent a +1 and you get one of the cards for yourself. Returning to the Deck also avoids Graveyard abuse. Current Errata: BANNED Errata after revised effect: LIMITED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 I reveal 2 Rota 3 Armageddon Knight I reveal 5 Floodgates that screw you over Etc. This is hardly better, it just promotes using it for even more degenerate purposes, lest the draw costs you the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodfusion Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 How about a "You cannot Summon/Activate/Set cards with the same name as the chosen card the turn you activate this effect" kind of thing? Would that be better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted April 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 How about a "You cannot Summon/Activate/Set cards with the same name as the chosen card the turn you activate this effect" kind of thing? Would that be better? It might work. Would stop your opponent using it to their next Turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hello my name is Enguin Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Just leave it be and keep it banned. I'd rather that than have it bastardised and legal like Crush Card Virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 At the very least, it should be "5 cards with different names" to avoid combos like what Black just said. Even then: "Reveal 5 Igknights". "Reveal Brio, Manju, Senju, Clausolas, Prep of Rites". Making literally any card in your Deck searchable is absurd, and I don't think there's a restriction you can put on it that won't take it to Single Purchase-level bad.

UltimateIRS Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 It would probably help if the other cards were banished face-down, rather than being returned to the Deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 OR we could just not try to errata cards beyond a hard OPT. The only 'good' errata is Ring of Destruction and, arguably, DMoC. Chaos Emperor is still a 3K for Chaosdolls and consistency, Temple of the Kings is (IMO) fucking stupid as a card, Crush Card's a side card but its identity was ruined in the process, Sinister Serpent's bad, Dark Strike Fighter is a waste of ink, Exchange of the Spirit is an idea that can't do anything positive for the game. Erratas either change the identity of a card or make it awful, in most scenarios. Ring is a fine 1-of in the current gamestate, and DMoC remains to be seen but seems llike it was nerfed just enough. Even so, this isn't a reason to try and changed every fucking banned card. Just let them rot. They were mistakes, we don't need cards like this to exist. Even if you banished them face-down, it would still be a 5 card deck thin that's a +0. Sure, you lose some cards, but you choose what cards, so it's a terrible idea in concept, though less powerful. There is no point in trying to errata cards and change what was done, as it steadily makes the mistakes of the past forgotten while ruining the card's identity at worst. Just leave them be.

- Minimania - Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 I would think that if this card were turned into a Spell Card Kuribandit it would be way better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Reveal 5 different Spell cards in your Deck to your opponent and number them 1-5. Roll a dice and add the corresponding card to your hand. Banish the rest face-down Can't special Summon that turn. ?????????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
