Ban List Speculation

Banned:

None.

Limited:

Tour Guide
Magician Of Faith
Insector Hornet
Insector Damsel
Rescue Rabbit
Royal Oppression
Wind Up Zenmighty
Goyo Guardian

Semi Limit:

Holy Shine Ball
Hyperion
Grapha
BF Gale

So explanation:

No Bls banned. So i've one question to ask... How many times have you lost because of BLS? It just has not been so bad this format. Definitely more destructive than a Scrap Dragon, but not as bad as a Trishula

Tour Guide- obvious much. But this is not gonna happen.

Magician Of Faith- Time you came back. She's not splashable anymore and shes too slow. The only decks i see her being put in is Hero Beat and Chaos and maybe some may try to throw in Plants, which the latter i highly doubt. Konami always tries to return one banned card back, Tsukuyomi is still too damn strong.

Insector Hornet- Death to Insectors

Insector Damsel- Death to Insectors. I would actually prefer to hit Damsel over Hornet.

Because in Game 1 you will still die to Insector loop as long as they successfully get Hornet in grave. At least when Damsel is limited you wont die to too many xyzs. Hornet + centipede still netts advantage but then its not as bad as having your whole field cleared out and then facing a full brunt of xyzs. You may lose a card and opponent can search Damsel to hand but at least next turn you still have resources to make a comeback and prevent Damsel.

At least with Damsel limited, it doesnt mean that the card is dead. Insectors still run 2x Call of Haunted and some have resorted to Limit Reverse. This makes it harder for them to simply spam Damsel so it encourages a little more skilled play.

I am ready to be flamed.

Rescue Rabbit- Rabbit is strong.

Royal Oppression- This seriously needs to come back. Hong has said there would be games won just from backing up a beatstick with Oppression. I disagree because that situation is not impossible to get out of. Its still good and it should come back. Not like Insectors care about Oppression anyway :)

Wind Up Zenmighty- Eat my hand nom nom nom nom. Now TCG gets Wind Up shark?!

Armor Ninja Bladeheart- Airman + Reborn = 8800 damage

Goyo Guardian- Give BF some love. we need our trusty Goyo back!

Semi Limit:

Holy Shine Ball- Kill off Gachi Gachi. If Agents want to consistently dish out Gachis, they will have to resort to using TG Striker.

Hyperion- So strong bro.

Grapha- Strong!

BF Gale- Give Bf some love back. I prefer this then Kalut because being Honest from the hand is really irritating. BF Gale gives BF back some speed and some synergy in the deck. Its better than giving Kalut because Kalut just makes the deck more control based whereas Gale forces them to commit more to the field.

Lazy to think of cards that are released back to 3. Maybe Destiny Draw...

Card of The Format

Fiendish Chain, hands down.

What do you think?

Happy Chinese New Year!

Okay, so i finally found time to update. Yes im not dead.

I couldn't update about Yugioh lately because i couldnt find the time.

Seriously, without internet service or a laptop in KL is tough, heck i just found out bout the new Hieroglyph Dragons lately.

I did go to Andrews place once in a while to use his computer, but we usually ended up playing and talking crap instead of me blogging.

Im back in my hometown for a week =)

I did head to town to play Yugioh only twice in the past month and it was invigorating to finally say im part of the KL community.

The other times, my friends wanted to go to shop so i also went to shop. Got alot of nice shopping done so im happy.

So, im personally really excited bout the new dragon archetype.

It has a Rota, a Shura, an Icarus, a Cyber Dragon, and a Hyperion and a boss monster. And the deck spams Neo Galaxy much faster than you may think.

Throw in a couple of Veiler/ Maxx Cs, and a solid trap lineup and it will do decently or at least have a bit of a matchup against Wind Up/ Insecters.

So what am i playing now? still plants! loyal plant player. although it got bullied by Andrews DD Rabbit Ragia so much in so many Game 1s.

i will be slowing down on blogging till i get my laptop in KL and slowing down on Yugioh (maybe) until the March banlist.

More blogging done tmr, gonna sleep!

It is now 4.30 am

Am i too free to post now?

NOPE cos my flight is in 1 and 1/2 hours.

See ya permanently in KL =)

OCG Plants Version 2.0

This is the version I have been testing on Dn for the last few days:

2 Verz Mandrago
1 Zephyros
1 Lyla
1 Mystic Tomato
1 Debris Dragon
1 Raioh
2 Tragoedia
1 Gorz
1 Spirit Reaper
1 Sangan
2 Effect Veiler
1 Spore
1 Dandylion
1 Glow Up Bulb
1 Lonefire Blossom
2 Ryko
2 Junk Synchron
2 Doppel Warrior
1 Chaos Sorcerer
1 BLS

1 Monster Reborn
1 Scapegoat
1 Dark Hole
1 One for One
1 Foolish Burial
1 Pot of Avarice
1 Heavy Storm
2 MST
1 Rota

2 Bottomless
2 Call of Haunted
1 Torrential

Might cut out 2 Bottomless to put in 1 PWWB to make the deck 40 cards.

Might cut out Zephyros as i never really like him. But level 4 in there is good to make Laval Chain!

Yes this deck can run Laval Chain and Daigusto Emerald but you wont be pulling it off as often as you think.

Thats all for today.
