Jord200 Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 So no Kaiju, no Trains, no Kozmo...... Yet Launcher is ok to use?! Also Rainbow Life? Banned? We sure this is real? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snatch Steal Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Lmao, why the funk did they hit Mystik Wok of all things ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– No Raigeki is alright, because that means rogue doesn't auto-lose. Started to get confused why Kozmos and Kaiju are banned, then realized it was because they're TCG. They banned a ton of stupid stuff, though. No idea why blood mefist is on the list when pretty much no one has it and it's never been a threatening card. Also, Blue-Eyes will win, seeing that nothing big was hit on their end.

Aerion Brightflame Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Why have they banned all of the things that happen to give lifepoints? Is there some unique OTK I've never heard off, Aroma being the best deck, or them being that paranoid of games stalling out due to LP gain?

LP Gain is a shitty/rude strategy anyway, and it's not like anyone was really using them, so they probably thought the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCR_CAT Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Why have they banned all of the things that happen to give lifepoints? Is there some unique OTK I've never heard off, Aroma being the best deck, or them being that paranoid of games stalling out due to LP gain? The WCS, like most YCS's, operate on a time-limit for its rounds, and the rules for a time-up is typically that the player with the most LP will win that round. It's something involving that, anyways. In a normal YCS this isn't a problem because stall/LP-Gain decks suck in the face of full meta decks. But this is basically a rogue tournament, so random stall/LP-Gain Decks that focus on basically forcing the time-up while having the most LP become extremely trolly.

Darj Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 I am puzzled by some cards banned in the list that I have yet to see do anything crazy or concerning. They did explain Scapeghost at the top of the document, but I mean Kachi Kochi Dragon, even Shogi Rook are there. Why? What am I missing?And I suppose Troposphere is there because it was released in Shonen Jump magazines? Don't tell me there actually is a crazy combo involving it.

Don't tell me there actually is a crazy combo involving it.I think it might be due to the fact that it isn't legal everywhere due to it being a SJ card.

Kaiji Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 iirc there has been issues in the past regarding winning in time, so the LP gain card ban makes sense. The workaround is siding burn anyway gg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jord200 Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Soooo...no Nekroz, Kaiju, Shadolls, PePe, Kozmos, not sure how bad this hurts BA and Monarchs....... Infernity aren't really worth it with what they have left, even if this lets Launcher be used...... Trains don't have access to three critical cards for the deck.... No Blue Eyes or Magicians...... Luster Penedulum seems like it might be a big N-O too... HEROs seem to be down some stuff... I think.... Any idea what will win at this rate?

Tinkerer Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 Majespecter-heavy pendulum variant is my prediction. Other archetypes with potential might be Volcanics or Yosenju for grindy games or Blue-Eyes for heavy hitting, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jabber2033 Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Honestly, I see Blue-Eyes taking it. Or ED Monarchs. They're a bit slower with only 1 Pantheism, but not touched otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IQuitDolphin Posted August 4, 2016 Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 The reason for all the LP cards that were banned is because of degenerate strats that involve stalling sheet forever than gaining LP in time and proceeding to win. ex. PSY-Frames are pretty degenerate good at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Βyakuya Posted August 4, 2016 Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 The LP Gain cards are banned merely to prevent stalling the game. Primarily, if a match were to go into time and you had to go through a 3-round match procedure, within 3 turns the highest LP player wins that game, so if players anticipate that they can steal a game by just having a lot of life then that huge hurdle makes it so that they win without working too hard. This list however, seems very OCG favored towards things like D/D and Blue-Eyes. Blue-Eyes definitely going to wreck some sheet. Domain Monarchs might show; if it's only a Pantheism hit it's somewhat okay. PK Fire is also somewhat viable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
