The New Yu-Gi-Oh Thread: Construct Joins Stratos in the Halfway House

And exactly as I predicted, the second those results came in, the hits came down.

Damn not even Zoo got hit this quick. Maybe I’ll actually start playing after YCS San Diego?

1 Gofu
1 Quick Fix
1 Drone
1 Set Rotation

Konami actually listened.

Because at its worse Zoo at least was an engine for other decks as well, you weren’t locked into playing the same deck. You’d have to make room for Zoo cards and that sucked, but at least there was variety within what you could use with Zoo. Plus they had a bunch of Zoo cards to sell still.

SPYRALs, there’s very little variety because the deck is basically optimized, on top of having absurdly dominating performances at back to back YCS tourneys AND the OCGs own issues with the deck, and including the fact that the deck is only going to get stronger when Linkuriboh and Trigate Wizard arrive.

I knew that if they went back to back on YCS, they’d make a move and they did. It also helps that they aren’t out much money for doing so.

Well, for those who have abandoned the current state of Yugioh (and I don’t blame you) but want to play the game in a more tempered format that ISN’T fucking overrated Goat Control, Yugioh Duel Links finally got released on Steam (it was already on Mobile).

Not that anyone cares (and I don’t blame you guys, trust me), new List.

I still unfortunately play casually T_T

Dandelion finally got whacked huh? Guess Komoney finally saw that 30 play conbo that one guy created using Dandylion. What shocked me was that they banned Maxx C. Now nobody really has any worry to go nuts with summoning combos.

Edit: Ooh shit. Monster Reborn has been saved from the Shadow Realm. I’d be more excited if I actually still played.

Well I imagine the hope is, with Firewall at 1, there won’t be as much absurdity in Solitaire combos. But yeah, I do not agree with the Maxx C ban.

And right now, I’m basically casual myself. Still judge and enter locals, but that’s it. My focus is in DB Super TCG right now.

everyone should have had the possibility of monster reborn coming off considering the promo print. what really got me was solemn judgment, thought that was cute, but then what really made me lol was doublen iris being banned, glad i dont play competitive anymore, i might have actually got mad. nice to see we finally got BLS at 3, if only they would let their foot off REDMD.

Anyone mad at the Pen Magician hits are stupid. Pen Magician is still easily Tier 1. It just won’t be Tier 0 for three months until FLOD.

REDMD can’t actually leave 1 anymore. Trust me, there are already ways to abuse the fuck out of it at 1. At 2 it’d be an immediate wrap.

i dont need to trust you, i know that REDMD would be busted beond belief past 1, thats what i want…its one of my fav cards along with BLS

and pend magicians was the only fun deck to play competitively, most fun “tier 0” deck, they could have atleast walked him down, but 3 to 0 is pretty aggressive considering joker also got hit too

Walking him down does nothing in a deck that can search every single card. It was either ban Double Iris or ban Time Pendulumgraph. Banning Double Iris means you can still play both Pendulumgraphs.

The deck is still probably the best deck in format, it’s just not “Play Pen Magician or Die” like how it would’ve been.

Looks for my nigga Stratos

Yep…See you next banlist.

Boy, if Stratos is freed, it’ll be on the Topic Title.

Still checking lmao

dont hold your breath, you might just die lol. at this point it doesn’t feel like it will ever come off.

trickstars didnt get hit and while the spyral resort hit is big, that deck is still a contender as well, either way i dont play competitive anymore, so it doesnt really concern me, but will be interesting to see how the format plays out with 3x torrential and solemn judgment back

Did i just read monster reborn is legal?

LUL

Well I was perfectly fine letting this thread be dead but for @DiNyc3st congrats, your homie is finally free. On probation though.

My man Stratos is FINALLY FREE!

With Stratos out on parole, someone had to take his place in Solitary Confinement. Later Firewall you fucking son of a bitch.

Also, Stratos now getting that Ulti work in the next OTS pack to celebrate his freedom.
