First Comment

WTF! They didn't do anything about Test Tiger!

leonaxium - 21. Aug, 19:33

what?

glad beasts remain untouched!!!!!

Dragon King - 21. Aug, 19:52

I AM SO GLAD!!

I was going crazy about a banned on the 5D's starter synchro Deck and the Premium Pack 2 pack. But i guess i was just jumping off the handle. What i saw must of been the list for the World forbidden list.
I'm so happy now,all Most none of my cards are on the list.
I will have to take out two of my Cyber Dragons out of my Cyber Deck. }:P

boingboing1 - 21. Aug, 22:19

Well you were using the deck illegally then Dragon King because Cyber Dragon was already at 2 not 3, Donkey!!!!!!!!!!!!
boingboing1 - 21. Aug, 19:57

You have to keep calm, Glad Beasts have been focked up at their main - Royal Decree stopping Solemn makes them vunerable to speed and power.

Rescue Cat has reduced it's side deck. Rota makes Six Sam stronger will Reasoning admittedly limits there speed but with Hand of the Six Samurai they need that.

With LADD at 3 it allows another deck capable of crippling Glad but Zombies are the ones to watch!!!!!!!

cybergx - 21. Aug, 20:54

Ok...

So Allure is back at 3 now? I know I've seen the list already, but I'm still surprsied they didn't touch Gladiator Beasts. They could've at least Semi'd Test Tiger.

reForbidden/Limited Cards (effective September 1, 2008)

oh come on why do you keep slughtering my deck you jerks first of if darkmagican of choas is ban then dimention fusion should come back becasue the reason it was banned is becasue pepole used shadow girl orm spell economics with dark magican of choas to keep inflicting life points damage to there opponent and keep useing dimention fusion over and over aguin .

boingboing1 - 21. Aug, 22:13

Hamster World you are such a dickhead, Dimension Fusion will NEVER get unbanned while Dark Armed Dragon's unbanned!!!!!!!
Rokrekler - 21. Aug, 21:33

Well,this list is not the best ever made.They could have limited Gyzarus/Heraklinos to 1. DMoC banning was unnecessary imo.Perfect/Broken circle decks are dead now without Disk Commander.They have made burn decks and others unstable now with bringing back Breaker(gotta pick up my copy now soon).I don't really know/care about Monster Gate and Phantom like them now.Why didn't they limit/semi-limit Secret Barrel,Messenger of Peace and/or any of the 6Samurai cards?This all is too confusing and annoying to me,at least Warrior toolbox got another RoTA to search for X-force,Mystic LV2 and others.

boingboing1 - 21. Aug, 22:15

Six Sam did get weakened Rokreler they lost their speed with Reasoning but gain a bit of hand presence with ROTA at 3!!!!!!!!!!!
marucho8d7 - 21. Aug, 21:37

HOPEFULLY this new banlist lets some decks evolve...

seriously though, gladiator beasts are untouched...wow...

cybergx - 21. Aug, 22:26

Whenever I read from this list, to me it just feels like Konami is saying:

"Hey guys! Instead of touching the best deck in the format right now, we're gonna make it BETTER and touch every other deck in the format!"

It seems like Konami favours the G-Beasts, or they think they aren't a problem, and everything else is. This isn't the best list. All the other decks just got weaker, and that makes G-Beasts that much harder to take down.

I haven't seen the TCG Synchro Deck as opposed to OCG's DAD Synchro, so I'm not going to rule out that Konami touched EVERY deck, but I think everyone else knows what I'm talking about.

leonaxium - 21. Aug, 22:37

A Penny For Your Thoughts?

Some people predicted that Gladiators would remain untouched because they were such a specific theme that you could only run Gladiator Beasts and not a variant deck. Due to this, Konami couldn't ban/limit any of the cards because doing so would almost render the deck unusable. However, I disagree because the limit of Advanced Ritual Art only hit Demise OTK decks. So, I believe that they remained untouched because of the Special Edition in October. If GladBeasts got banned/limited, people wouldn't run the deck as much. So, the SE wouldn't sell as much. If GladBeasts are the undisputed best deck (dare I say it?) in the World, who wouldn't want to waste their chance to obtain one of the powerhouses (Heraklinos) for a "meh" amount of 10 dollars? Even if one refused to run the deck, he's great trade bait. That's just my opinion. What do you guys think?

P.S. Jeff@UDE said on Pojo that Konami and UDE both discussed and compromised on the Ban list before posting it up, so it isn't all Konami, just saying.

sonic_slicer - 22. Aug, 01:39

well.......

.....it's a start

I'm sad to see DMOC go...but getting a free magic card back everytime it gets summoned (reborn and 3 of those traps that allow you to special summon a dark monster that's removed from play)

But i am glad to see breaker come off the list ( i always thought that mobius was more broken than this card simply for the fact that unless you negate mobius' summon, it still gets the effect...whille breaker doesn't [examples: torrential and botomless])


Not a perfect list...but it's a start


let's just hope that if things get bad, konami/ude decide to do a mid ban like they did with dimension fusion and mid semi restrict like they did for allure

danierulynx - 22. Aug, 18:01

*laughs at all the TCG nay-sayers who were convinced that the list would be different for the TCG just because they didn't like it*

Dragon King - 22. Aug, 20:55

I was just hopeing,Snipe Hunter would be on it.Feel like everone and Grandma has one in their Deck.I feel when they made this card,They don't think out the Effect to well.It should of been,once a turn send a card form your hands to roll a dice to destory one card.People keep sending cards from their hands,And how can you not roll something between 1 and 6!!! It's the unlucky dice rollers Ace Card!!! I am glad you can only have one in your Deck. If your a Snipe Hunter lover,don't get mad,OK? It's just how i feel about this Card.
ShiroRyu - 23. Aug, 00:14

Well Allures back to 3, which is nice, at least for Zombies and Dark decks. I still think Test Tiger should've been limited, but obviously not.
Also, Dragon King, why snipe hunter? I suppose it is based on luck but then luck plays a part in the whole game anyway. I lent my friend my CCV in a fun duel, and even though he shuffled properly and I cut afterwards, he still drew CCV in EVERY hand (in about 8 games). Besides, Snipe Hunter is only played in a few decks now (in my city's meta at least, practically all we have are glad beasts, lightsworns and oppression decks, with the odd PCM which might have a snipe hunter in.)

boingboing1

The game has been changeing incase you did not know and your comment was unneccary I don't even know you and your already insulting me wow excuse me for speacking my mind becasue i don't have hundreds of dollars to throw away on cardboard ,the fact is i'm well a where of tcg world & not everybody wants to copy other pepole & not everyone want's to get cards banned.I whould rather they bann Dark armed dragon then dimetion fusion becasue not many pepole have Dark Armed Dragon but alllot of pepole have dimetion fusion what tcg has created is the rich kids always win and those of us who can't afford $250.00 for pieace of card board have to suffer .

Dragon King - 23. Aug, 02:57

Your right!!! I've said stuff like at to some of friends for years.
IT'S JUST PAPER!!! Dark Armed Dragon would work so well,in my CyberDark Deck. I've tryed to get him,But no one will give him up.
And with the price tag like that,i will not buy it anytime soon,
So now i Have Rainbow Dark Dragon and Dark Horus. Horus works well,but RDD is a little tricky at times to use.
Dragon King - 26. Aug, 16:20

Well,Now I am piss!!

I know the banned list had been up for some time now. But I paint a copy,i can read as i look at my decks. Every one read it. I just pass though it with out really looking. NOW I'M TICKED!! CyberDark Dragon and more,are out of order now. I'm trying to fix it,but it is no use. For now are duels will be called Miracle Duels, Because it will be a Miracle we win. So many of my decks are gone with the wind.
I will still try to fixs it. But I'm going to need more monsters,Spells and Traps!!

Dragon King - 27. Aug, 06:10

FUTURE FUSION,was the back bone of my CyberDark deck. I would use it to get Five-headed Dragon,put five dragons in the Graveyard.
With that, level Three or Fore dragons and a big one,like Dark Horus or White Horned Dragon. Then with some dragons in the Grave.
I use the CyberDark mosters to equip with them. Two turns later my big one comes out.(When i had CALL OF THE HAUNTED and PREMATURE BURIAL) I would use them to bring out the bigger dragons i used to make five-headed dragon!
Great Shogun Shine - 30. Aug, 05:40

The list would be better if Lightning Vortex was back limited!

I am sick and tired of people having 3 Lightning Vortex in there deck!
I like it better when Lightning Vortex was limited

Forrenz - 10. Sep, 02:44

Yeah...

People discarding a 'Lightning Vortex' to pay for 'Lightning Vortex' is just wrong (My Yubel doesn't mind though teehee). Especially with such a lack of playing monsters face-down.
I think they should drop 'Lightning' back to 1, then bring back 'Cyber Jar'.
SERIOUSLY, with all the removal cards and negation cards and the anti-destruction cards, what are the odds you can even pull off its effect? And even then, it's likely to be "Crossout-ed", removed from play, then your opponent's would be too...

Bring back Cyber Jar!
tsog - 5. Nov, 22:39

darkagathor - 17. Nov, 06:09
