You’re right HAHAHA! But I’m considering to play competitively when I move back to SFL this summer. The YGO scene is BIG and very helpful too. NY, mehhh
Hey, you want to switch states? I’ll take the better FG scene if you want the better YGO scene.
don’t get me wrong, I love NY is awesome but I may relocate from my job if they ask. not even 100% if it’s FL. May move to GA too
Also note that there’s only a month left in this format. It’s almost banlist season again.
>ban stratos
>announce E-HERO structure deck
konami pls
By the time that Structure comes out here we’d be through another two-three formats. There’s no saying that Stratos won’t make its way back.
Plus there’s nothing saying they can’t make a Stratos substitute as well.
Stratos wasn’t that broken of a card to be banned IMO…
It wasn’t but because of the new banlist frequency it lets Konami try out random things.
I still would’ve preferred AHL getting banned and Stratos coming back, E-Call probably back to 2. Lord knows RotA isn’t coming back up regardless.
Stratos is the best searcher in the game hands down. If D Draw and malicious weren’t at 3, he wouldn’t be banned. The structure deck could produce another good fusion for heroes, not like they need it.
Oh there’s no doubt about that, best searcher in the game ever. However there will be a new archetype coming in the Duelist’s Advent and they have their own version of Stratos that actually comes close to his power.
Also as for being banned because of them at 3, they were put at 3 at the exact same time of his ban, same as E-Call.
I remember when Skill drain was confusing as fuck.
Yeah, now it just reads “Drop huge beaters for little cost and fuck over a ton of top decks in the process.” Or at least it did until Mermails picked back up in popularity.
What’s the new archetype?
And skill drain is such a pain in the ass. I side dust tornado/twister just for that card.
Sateliknights/Stellaknights (we still don’t have a great translation of it yet).
Basically 3 of the best Level 4 Monster recreations you can think of, a Infernity Barrier/Gemini Spark like Counter Trap, their own variant of Swallow’s Nest, their own 3 Material Rank 4 Boss that’s great, all wrapped up in a LIGHT Warrior package.
Skill drain rapes the meta game outside of Mermails from what I see. This Dark world deck works well with them. Ima try using DW Lightning to see how it works since EVERYONE love abusing dem backrows LOL.
Im struggling against evilswarms mainly…shit’s tough LOL
Let me help you out.
Yeah, Skill Drain is great with Dark Worlds. My only suggestion is to not run 3 as that shit is not fun to draw multiples and the deck struggles with consistency enough.
And secondly, DO NOT USE DARK WORLD LIGHTNING! It’s a learning mistake. It’s sort of like a newer player knowing Rainbow Dragon sucks in Crystal Beasts…but starts using Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder.
At a glance Lightning would seemingly be good. However too many backrow this format are either chainable or continuous. You’ll Lightning them and get nothing out of it. And then in a couple of months Primal Origins is dropping with the new Archetype called Artifacts. And if you destroy their backrow, you are going to pay for it HARD.
Long story short, don’t use Lightning. It’s not worth it. The only way it’ll be worth it again is if Battle Traps get popular again or Bottomless comes back to 2+ and Traptrix decides to want to get into the fight.
Ok i’ll take out a Skill Drain for a Solemn Warning. Why not LOL
I feel like Konami needs to bring a ‘control’ type set in, so it won’t suck so much to be on the play when the person who goes first gets 5 cards.
I really want to see how Konami handles this change. It will be nice though to know that going first won’t be the end all anymore.
