. I wrote on that thing with some comments.

Well the only hard hits were to BA/Qli/Rulers and from solo cards Vanity and Snatch. Rest of the list doesn't really change the meta, Nekroz barely got touched and is gonna be as strong as ever with other meta decks getting hit harder. Bunch of decks got their searchers back up higher making tier 2-3 duels more fun I guess. Errata cards were well erratad and obviously made weaker so they wont have that high impact on the game. And some reverts to previous hits that no longer matter IE Gorz and Goyo.


tl;dr Nekroz still gonna be highly the most played meta deck for now.

Imo, the banlist is kinda stupid though, banning rulers yet they bring back dragon ravine if that is what it is called. Especially tidal and the fire monster is barely used anyway since they can run with water/dragon decks and fire/dragon decks shouldn't be touched to at all. But they need to atleast bring back heavy storm, monster reborn, giant trunade, harpies feather duster, graceful charity, change of heart, morphing jars, pot of greed and all the originals that need to come back. Yugioh became stupid after the cards that i listed and also thousand eye restrict lol. but Im hoping microsoft is or will be making virtual yugioh and that would be awesome. Also what are these yugioh monster attacks? in the shows for example " Exodia" Yugi said Obliterate?

expect Tousand eyes restrict all cards you mentioned are BROKEN.Heavy storm OCG has this banned and Harpies duster limited because they don't want you poping your pendulum scales and replacing them with new ones on the other hand the TCG Trapline-up is weaker than OCG so Harpie's fether duster should not be brought back.Gaint Trunade was banned because of it recycling traps like CoH,Feindish Chain etc. Graceful Charity is mad in most meta decks BA can draw 3 then drop 2 and get thier effs.Pot of greed is genric +1.Morphing jar 1 Discard all cards then draw 5 cards which is again not only higly abusable in BA but it can make huge difference like player A has no cards in hand player B has 4 cards player,Player A has Morphing jar 1 set player B attacks it with his card Player A gets + 4 and if its Flip effect resolves.Change of heart will become just another aids card like Snatch Steal which says you are losing but you win because you draw me.

Well true i guess i can do all traditional or unlimited duels from now on to use those cards. But when you say change of heart is another aids card like snatch steal. Change of heart is the original card before snatch steal came about. I Miss those cards soo much and without them yugioh isn't what it is today. right now yugioh is very stupid to be honest and boring. I guess I will now go to limited and unlimited for life. Im old fashioned and imo, i love those ccards and also im from the old generation and this new generation has gotten worse. I look back in time now saying those were the days but now it sucks big time.
