Banlist (Real/ Fake?) plus Exceed Monsters

Now that info on Exceed Summoning has been fully released, its time to blog about it!

First of all, the cards will be BLACK! omgwtfbbq <3 <3

Then the levels (ranks) will be on the left side of the card. so its something like Dark Synchro (negative summoning etc)

However the better things about Exceed monsters are that the cards do not require a tuner. However they require monsters of similar level to be on the field.

Eg of decks that can do this well:

Plants (level 1 tokens everywhere) (there is bound to be rank 1 or 2 exceed monsters soon just like our beloved formula synchron)

X Sabers- level 3 - Darksoul, emmersblade..

Six Samurai- Kizans (level 4) , Shinai+ Mizuho (level 3)

The best thing about Exceed monsters is that they reside in the extra deck! Oh joy!

Currently, this is the latest list on Yuginewz.

Now usually i do not like speculating on lists, but imo, this is a list that reeks of Konami.

I mean it seems very reasonable and if you have been playing Yugioh long enough, there are lists that gives you the impression that the list was made by a biased player at like a first glance.

This lists seems very very reasonably Konami

Some of the good notable stuff to be taken note of:

Banning of Cold Wave (finally)
Banning of Dark Armed Dragon (card that wins games too often)

Limiting of Judgment Dragon
Limiting of Kristia - as Angel is now too strong with 3 Damudo light version which is searchable when field card is on the field.

The RIGHTFUL limiting of Gateway although i think it is not enough to stop Samurai

Limting of Black Rose- Sad for my Debris Sabers, however this is a move that had to be done. Nuff said.

Limiting of Royal Tribute- Crush card Virus x 3 is now reduced to one.

Semi limiting of Bestiari- Guess what deck im gonna make now? It seems GB has slowed down way too much. So Konami is bumping it back into the competitive scene.


Semi limting of kalut and Icarus Attack- This banlist is being quite harsh to BF as Konami has made kalut Honest status, and limited Icarus while banned DAD without destroying the theme itself.

Pot of Duality + Solemn Warning- Neutered down Gravekeepers and Hero Beat. Warning at 3 was too crazy. At BTH status, i think this is a very good move.

Now for the bad points of this banlist:

Where is Heavy Storm? Instead Konami has released MST to 3??!! Now there is only Giant Trunade left. I think this is where Konami really messed up this list. I know im gonna get annoyed about MST being spammed at me every end phase =.= Now the question is: Is it worth running 3 of?

What is Tribe Infecting Virus doin back???? Me and Michael Bonacini discussed about Konami playing Russian Roulette with the banned cards and releasing one of them.

Gosh i didnt think Konami would release Tribe. This card will make Stun and Hero Beat decks strong as Virus destroys cards of the same Type, which is just what every theme deck fears. (Angel, Wing Beast, etc) It becomes a Water attribute for Absolute Zero.

So, this was just a short post about this mock banlist which has circulated through Yuginewz.

The only reason im doing this is because the list reeks Konami. Like fuck yeah.

Please do NOT assume this is the real banlist. You have been warned.

Yes im sure there are still ppl who are gonna argue with me and talk crap and even ask how i know the banlist is real or anything. Any questions regarding banlist authencity or arguing on how stupid this banlist is and how stupid i am to believe this list will automatically be either erased or ignored.

No, im not gonna dig out my Tribe Infecting Viruses. YET.

could someone exxplain to me why Mind Master is banned?

that i dont gert but get much of the rest - and its about time MSE came back to 3 - heaven knows my DDT / Exodia deck needs it

mike9944 said...

Mind Master?

i dont know. im not a psychic enthusiast.

im thinking brain exploitation lab plus all the new psychis support. they keep looping each other out with mind master

Bahamut84 said...

Mental master is substitoad. Simple as that.

And actually I feel this banlist looks a little fake because to me, it is not very Konami style lol.

mike9944 said...

@ baha - eh why?

i hope its not though, heavy should be there

Sean said...

If this list happens to be real, Konami is being very lenient towards Samurais and moderately harsh towards BF.

If you look carefully, BF is still playable without DAD b'cos Blizzard is still at 3. Semi-Limiting Kalut, Duality, Warning, and Icarus is not going to hurt them too much. BF will become a more balanced deck if the list is real.

I have a feeling that this could well be the real list.

I will feel sad if this is the real list, knowing that people can still set their entire hand down WITHOUT being bombed by BRD all the time or Heavy storm or locked by Cold wave.

mike9944 said...

@ anon- i guess that is what konami wants. anyways! not confirmed yet so no worries ! then decks which can apply speed plus control will dominate. (hint hint: samurai)

@ sean- hmmm i dont know about that either. Icarus and Warning can just be replaced my MST or Bottomless Trap Holes etc.

Im not surprised that they are lenient to Samurai. Samurai will still be tier one (probably because of TCG marketting strategies)

This might just be a very controll-ish format...

how many people play more than 2 copies of solemn warning main decked anyway - at most i see only 2 or more so 2 side decked - so semi'ing warning aint gonna affect much

mike9944 said...

anon- i play triple warning and so do many others.

any good BF samurai player this format will tell you they run triple warning.

and who will sidedeck it when you can maindeck it?

haha... tribe infecting virus finally got into the conversation, it won out against tsukuyomi as the most "un-bannable" card :P

it doesn't feel konami-ish since:
1) they won't touch royal tribute until recruiter comes out at EXP-4

2) they'll probably R2 gateway first just like they did to black whirlwind

3) DAD has no business being banned, it's a nomi-attribute specific card..

other than that... all the semi-restrictions seem believable
(dunno about GB's though, they'll recieve new support anyways)

^ never mind that... list came out on shriek/manjyoume
