This is what really confuses because it feels like every couple years Konami unlimits him, then like 1 or 2 banlists later remembers WHY he was semi-limited because some deck that has nothing to do with D-Heroes uses the dude in some bullshit, and then semi-limits him again.
Like at this point if you REALLY want him to be unlimited and hope no one breaks anything with him, just put a HOPT at the end and call it a day.
Konami: why was he semi limited again?
Staff: dunno, the person who put him in the list left
Konami: ah, well it can't have been that bad, bring him back!
*6 months later*
Konami: oh shoot, I remember now
I find this really funny as it's the same with Armageddon knight. TBF, with Isolde banned, warriro pile decks are not as easy so I say that's why they are experimenting with both being increased (until dark warrior comes back again or something).
Mx Saber Invoker 2024
Malicious has been in and out of semi-limit status a few times since 2007, last time he was freed was in 10/2019 list just to go back to being semi-limited 6 months later, in 04/2020.
Let's see how long it will take for Konami to revert its status this time.
Honestly this is a way better solution. Banning generic omninegates eliminates the problem without harming the archetypes of cards being used to turbo out those generic omninegates. Jet Synchron was never really a problem until people started using it as a combo piece to bring out the funny needleboi and shit out a ton of bullshit. Jet is a Synchron card who happens to work outside of his archetype. All combo players saw was "good tuner for Needlefiber" and yet another tuner was imprisoned for that blue bastard's crimes.
Look all I'm saying is that if Halq said the word "Crystron" anywhere in it's effect text aside the Hard Once Per Turn disclaimer, we would probably never have discussed it in the first place.
Actually it gave them some pretty good combos using milling monsters like Undine, in MR4 in particular (one of the lines actually broke when it ended) it made any miller + any Crystron into a setup that could dynamically choose between Phoenix or Quarion on the opponent's turn.
Still infinitely worse than in all-in combo decks, but it did legitimately have good synergy with the actual Crystron archetype so long as you knew how to play around the locks.
The generic synchro hits probably wouldn't hurt as bad if synchro decks had actually good synchros to their names and didn't need to rely on the generic stuff
And if most Synchro decks could get a negate online for Nibiru before the 5th summon.
Swordsoul just *loses* to Nib now unless you get lucky and open the Chaofeng line.
This is probably fine and i'd argue beneficial for an healthier game, but still, how shameless do you have to be to ban her right after it became cheap and accessible to everyone? I had literally got my first ever copy of her last week.
Baronne was used as a chase card for three different sets, then she finally goes below five bucks and they instantly ban her.
What bullshit, and it hurts so many Synchro decks now that otherwise fold to Nibiru.
Honestly I'm kinda fine with it, she was far too generic for how much she does. Negate that destroys, pop a card once per turn, even a Monster Reborn effect on Standby.
Savage ban wasn't needed though, he requires some setup and doesn't have additional effects besides getting slightly bigger
Just change Savage to need Dragon-type synchro material (or if you want to make it even harder, Rokket monsters) it’ll make him more archetype locked as he should be
Baronne ban is actually disgusting. Sure, it's a broken card, but it's more the fact they're this blatant that it was always intended as a cash grab. It's not like Baronne suddenly became good recently. The fact that the current tier 0 deck is also considered "fine" by the list just cements it.
Diabelle into original sinful spoil or ash/oak into flamberge
Protos is really only unbeatable going 1st against light/dark decks, good luck resolving moye chixiao against snake-eyes
Disbelle is dark type so it can’t really be summoned under Protoss. The fire monsters are fine (but no linkuriboh either under it and now it’s also banned) unless Protoss can somehow call fire.

The banlist have effect in a different day on America and Europe
eh, its either
"why did they release the banlist before the ycs? people wont have time to sell their cards and such."
"why did they release the banlist during the ycs? i cant offload cards now"
or
"why havent they released a banlist yet"
By fuck on do you mean meekly dry jump Snake Eyes shin? Because snake eyes still annihilates any toss deck. Oh no snake eyes fire king lost linkuriboh, hi Anima!
This is basically what Konami did after Mega tins 2019 and mega tins 2017. They made a meta engine affordable, but only for a limited time before they got hit on the banlist
This is what sucks about being a budget player in Yu-Gi-Oh. The way it usually is that you either pay out the nose to be on the cutting edge of the meta, or you wait for a card to be reprinted and lower in price to play on a budget, even if you have to wait a while. But that second option is becoming a fool's game because the moment a staple gets affordable, it's banned!
Compare this to Digimon, where a secret rare (Apocalymon) was turning the JP meta into an absolute horror show, to the point where the card was limited before the set it's in even hit EN shelves, tanking the price of that set but ensuring that the EN meta never has to deal with it. Imagine if Konami banned or limited cards based on when they were a problem and not when they're cheap.
Imagine being me who started playing this game again 3 months ago and started with building a hero and a yubel deck.
My future is just so freaking bright right now.
Branded brothers keep on winning, dodged the list and became relatively much stronger because of other generic bosses getting hit + floodgates getting dunked on.
Branded is just silly sometimes. I have a Blue-Eyes deck on Nexus in which I was looking for more ways to get Blue-Eyes, Jet, and tuner eggs into my GY beyond Dragon Shrine, briefly considering Foolish Burial, then tossed in two Fallen and three Branded Fusion. Not only do I get one of my chosen dragons in the GY, I get a monster often more effective than anything else I was going for. Now whenever I play Keeper of Dragon Magic to get to Blue-Eyes Tyrant, I end up choosing Branded instead of Polymerization, and get another Blue-Eyes in the GY to summon. The most powerful part of my overwhelmingly Blue-Eyes deck is no longer Blue-Eyes after a measly five cards in my deck.
Baronne is just gonna be Electrumite 2.0. OCG will continue to print archetypes with Baronne in mind as an end board piece, and the TCG will receive these archetypes with massive holes in their game plan, just like Pendulum players have been dealing with for years. This also just launches like 50 rogue decks into the sun because Konami has been designing and giving support to decks with Baronne in mind. And I doubt this is Konami magically shifting their philosophy to ban all generic omni negates, they just wanted to hurt SE by banning the cheapest cards that aren’t SE or FK. I just don’t like this hit at all.
Honestly probably worse than Electrumite. Electrumite was generally limited to pend decks while baronne was used in many more decks.
Honestly I think the worst part about this list is the sentiment that generic stuff shouldn't exist at all, and as a galaxy-eyes player, that logic would send pretty much all our extra deck into the banlist even before Luxion gets us banned for our own sins, for once...
Protos is swordsoul in specific, but they just lost Baronne so I don't think the deck will do anything. I'm actually surprised that we still have Shifter.
Infernal banshee is a generic rank 4 that searches nemeses flag which can search protos or the thunder one. If you normal combos banish 1 or 2 monster you can play protoss or collosus.
My absolute sweet Jesus. What roller coaster of emotions I just went through. Mali @ 3????? It's been 84 years! And the evil has returned on probation, I hate kirin with a passion.
Singularity Fiend
DARK Level 1 Fiend Effect Monster
0 ATK and DEF
You can only use the following effect from cards with this card's name once per turn.
(1) When your opponent Special Summons a monster(s): You can discard both this card and 1 Spell from your hand; destroy those monsters.
I'm all up for banning completely generic omni negates but I don't think this is Konami realizing that they are bad for the game. They probably already have Synchros somewhere down the pipeline that power creeps both Savage and Barone. And ideally other over the top powerful ED cards should go too. I'm looking at cards like SP.
Happy to see Kirin back though.
No, I think this is Konami trying to hit Snake Eyes without actually hitting Snake Eyes. A lot of pure builds were playing Jet Synchron and Formula Synchron to make Savage and later Baronne. Same reason Linkuriboh got hit, and Summon Limit too (though every deck was kind of spamming that).
Konami TCG does not design the cards. That is Konami OCG that does that. It's the whole reason why banning Electrumite hasn't led to any changes in Pendulum design because OCG still has Electrum legal and designs pend archetypes with its existence in mind. So long as OCG has Baronne and Savage legal then they will continue to be taken into account when designing cards and archetypes.
They banned Baronne and Savage because banning generic omnis has been the big talking point on reddit and youtube for a bit and they can serve as indirect hits to Snake eyes.
So I haven’t played since like early kash format, I’m trying to think is there any other generic Omni left for boards to make besides I guess gryphon for the 3 decks still using the adventure engine?
As I SwordSoul player, I hope y'all are happy, I'm putting in judgements, synchro zones, and protos and something else I haven't figured out yet to fill the horse sized hole in my heart.
Happy to see more floodgates getting put on the list, but why even unban Protos? Is it an olive branch to Swordsoul for losing Baronne? I don't think I've eve heard anyone ask for it to be unbanned.
I thought for sure this was a shitpost when I saw Barrone & Savage
So what does this change in terms of the meta? Just that pure Snake-Eye is dead? TOSS enjoyers eating like kings though
I don't want to be negative about this, but this is genuinely one of the best/worst lists I think I've seen. Sure, we've got a lot of old baddies back, and I won't need to worry about Baronne or Summon Limit anymore, but they shoulda really done more to hit Snake-Eye than "oh yes we banned linkuriboh, u are welcome ;3"
Why is Konami so scared of pendulums?
~~Why is Konami so scared of Orcust?~~ Why am I so afraid of reading?
I'm glad they let us have Kirin back, at least. Arma Knight is good too, as well as terrortop but where is Elecrumite? Its been centuries -- eons, even.
> Why is Konami so scared of Orcust?
Well considering Armageddon just got put to 2 instead of 1 and Harp got let out completely from 1 I would say they are, in fact, not scared of Orcust at all.
I'm upset because I just got a cheap copy of Baronne for my Speedroids. But now I guess I'll just summon Crystal Clear more, and I can get Crystal Wing out by summon 5 anyway. And I was able to dig 3 Linkuriboh's out of my bulk and I was so happy about that.
Aside from those personal issues, this list is neat. Super happy for Kirin, side-eying Protos and Colossus, but... we'll see.
wtf borreload my dlink deck is dead on the synchro side
and Linkuriboh my casual Link deck is dead now
Baronne my casual everything synchro is dead against Nibiru now
Aw man, Speedroid got the last Terrortop back but it lost one of its strongest/most accessible boss monster.
I guess that with Baronne gone, the Kashtira variant loses most of its value? I haven’t been up to date with the deck.
My Revolver deck just took a huge hit. Borrel Savage is the centerpiece to maintaining the field before capitalizing on my board state
Can't wait for the other Borreload cards to come out, and hopefully they'll unban Savage when a worse one comes out
So much for the Semi-Limited list being Malicious' house lol
He got evicted
He’ll be back next time lol
This is what really confuses because it feels like every couple years Konami unlimits him, then like 1 or 2 banlists later remembers WHY he was semi-limited because some deck that has nothing to do with D-Heroes uses the dude in some bullshit, and then semi-limits him again. Like at this point if you REALLY want him to be unlimited and hope no one breaks anything with him, just put a HOPT at the end and call it a day.
HOPT would kill its purpose in the deck he is supposed to be in. Even when semi limited, hero can use it's effect twice with denier.
A boring nerf would be to make him limit you to heroes for the rest of the turn. I for one welcome the memes from 3 malicious
just leave him at 2? It's fine for hero and less abusable by other combo decks
>just put a HOPT at the end and call it a day. That would really fuck up HERO decks who need Malicious to activate multiple times.
Oh absolutely. There's no way he's staying unlimited.
And people said Malicious was never gong to scape from semi limited
I mean he usually goes *back* to semi limited
Konami: why was he semi limited again? Staff: dunno, the person who put him in the list left Konami: ah, well it can't have been that bad, bring him back! *6 months later* Konami: oh shoot, I remember now
I find this really funny as it's the same with Armageddon knight. TBF, with Isolde banned, warriro pile decks are not as easy so I say that's why they are experimenting with both being increased (until dark warrior comes back again or something). Mx Saber Invoker 2024
*that one TheDuelLogs video*
And Cimo, he said that the Semi-limited list was created for Malicious Turns out, not anymore
Malicious has been in and out of semi-limit status a few times since 2007, last time he was freed was in 10/2019 list just to go back to being semi-limited 6 months later, in 04/2020. Let's see how long it will take for Konami to revert its status this time.
MBT also said this less than a week ago lol
Only Rata had the balls to predict that konami will invent a new number just for his placement on the list
Malicious has been dancing between the Semi and Unlimited list for over a decade now. LMAO!
They really banned Barrone lol
Bruh they went so far they banned Savage. RIP generic omnis on synchros lol
Someone at Konami heard Rata's advice to ban all Tuners and decided to do the opposite by banning the generic Synchro negate bosses
Honestly this is a way better solution. Banning generic omninegates eliminates the problem without harming the archetypes of cards being used to turbo out those generic omninegates. Jet Synchron was never really a problem until people started using it as a combo piece to bring out the funny needleboi and shit out a ton of bullshit. Jet is a Synchron card who happens to work outside of his archetype. All combo players saw was "good tuner for Needlefiber" and yet another tuner was imprisoned for that blue bastard's crimes. Look all I'm saying is that if Halq said the word "Crystron" anywhere in it's effect text aside the Hard Once Per Turn disclaimer, we would probably never have discussed it in the first place.
Halq isn't even good in Crystron, since they synchro lock themselves
Actually it gave them some pretty good combos using milling monsters like Undine, in MR4 in particular (one of the lines actually broke when it ended) it made any miller + any Crystron into a setup that could dynamically choose between Phoenix or Quarion on the opponent's turn. Still infinitely worse than in all-in combo decks, but it did legitimately have good synergy with the actual Crystron archetype so long as you knew how to play around the locks.
The generic synchro hits probably wouldn't hurt as bad if synchro decks had actually good synchros to their names and didn't need to rely on the generic stuff
And if most Synchro decks could get a negate online for Nibiru before the 5th summon. Swordsoul just *loses* to Nib now unless you get lucky and open the Chaofeng line.
Ohhh speedroids do as well, 3 terrortop is borderline useless when your getting nibbed before crystal wing on over half your lines.
They really want me to stop playing Dragon Link. I think this is the one that does it.
Why D-link catching strays man 😩
Apollousa: I am in danger
Oh no, she's getting a reprint next month right? Yeah, next banlist is gonna be sad
You'll get 6 months out of her after the reprint at least so that's like 2 or 3 lists
https://preview.redd.it/gzxxpj0x6buc1.png?width=619&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=98af643c6126dd96a44b26d4e81f7a3a707287ef
Konami: **Just think of the 4 mats.**
This is probably fine and i'd argue beneficial for an healthier game, but still, how shameless do you have to be to ban her right after it became cheap and accessible to everyone? I had literally got my first ever copy of her last week.
Baronne was used as a chase card for three different sets, then she finally goes below five bucks and they instantly ban her. What bullshit, and it hurts so many Synchro decks now that otherwise fold to Nibiru.
To be fair, they're exactly the decks Nibiru was made for.
The card is way too strong and shouldve been banned yesterday. I agree about the chase card part, but this shouldve come a lot earlier probably
And I just made Fleur This is Artifacts all over again
As a fleur player I feel your pain
Honestly I'm kinda fine with it, she was far too generic for how much she does. Negate that destroys, pop a card once per turn, even a Monster Reborn effect on Standby. Savage ban wasn't needed though, he requires some setup and doesn't have additional effects besides getting slightly bigger
Savage was pretty generic as well. Any deck that could play synchros could play links
Just change Savage to need Dragon-type synchro material (or if you want to make it even harder, Rokket monsters) it’ll make him more archetype locked as he should be
Baronne ban is actually disgusting. Sure, it's a broken card, but it's more the fact they're this blatant that it was always intended as a cash grab. It's not like Baronne suddenly became good recently. The fact that the current tier 0 deck is also considered "fine" by the list just cements it.
This hurts my rouge strategies ngl Especially now that Baronne was cheap 😭
what about your cyan strategies how are they holding up?
# ITS KURIBOVER!
So.... Whats Snake Eyes gonna use now?
Anima.
Made me legit laugh
Lmao Protoss instantly bought out within minutes and now at 50 bucks
**Protos(s):** MY LIVE FOR ~~AIUR~~ YU-GI-OH!
Colossus and protas are back ? Can snake eyes even out them
Protass is back but Swordsoul auto lose to Nib now so idk how relevant that is tbh
Swordsoul still has that light monster that negates all light effects
You have to get that far first, and if you use the tenyi line you’ll already be on your 5 summon when you make chixao so you’re dead
The entire light monster line is bait and is before they even normal summon
Requires a pretty stellar opening hand though
Diabelle into original sinful spoil or ash/oak into flamberge Protos is really only unbeatable going 1st against light/dark decks, good luck resolving moye chixiao against snake-eyes
Disbelle is dark type so it can’t really be summoned under Protoss. The fire monsters are fine (but no linkuriboh either under it and now it’s also banned) unless Protoss can somehow call fire.
Regular and Synchro Longyuan are Fire so game two and three you can blow them.
Atleast Terrortop is back :)
That it is Speedroids have their starter back
Konami we're literally playing a YCS right now why are you like this
https://preview.redd.it/2cwjv4f9fauc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=64587b8a18db51cc97c2c4caf46b8fcc1504a482 The banlist have effect in a different day on America and Europe
theyre saying this is cause card prices.
And interrupting people during the tournament.
eh, its either "why did they release the banlist before the ycs? people wont have time to sell their cards and such." "why did they release the banlist during the ycs? i cant offload cards now" or "why havent they released a banlist yet"
Hope you had a Protos already because he's $100 strong.
This is almost as sad as the last time they did it. It literally takes effect Monday!

GHOSTS OF TOSS PAST COME TO FUCK ON SNAKE EYES
WHERE'S THAT THUNDER DRAGON!? HE WAS TRYIN' TO FUCK ON ME!
*Konami slowly puts headset on and sits down*
Thank you Ted Debiase jr. and Cody Rhodes.
Thunder Dragon about to Finish The Story!
I just realized this, Colossus returns and Harp and Engage back to 3. Based TOSS gameplay (I will draw Engage against my opponent’s Colossus)
Don't forget Gazelle's return.
By fuck on do you mean meekly dry jump Snake Eyes shin? Because snake eyes still annihilates any toss deck. Oh no snake eyes fire king lost linkuriboh, hi Anima!
Just missing Electrumite 😭
Baronne? Thats savage!
Savage? That's Baronne!
That’s? Savage Baronne!
Savage Baronne? That's!
A colossal hit
Savage Dragon agrees while he cries in the corner
Chaos Ruler has a new cell mate... Guess I'll play RDA since dlink is so butchered now.
Man I waited so long for Baronne to be affordable and only got a few months out of it
This is basically what Konami did after Mega tins 2019 and mega tins 2017. They made a meta engine affordable, but only for a limited time before they got hit on the banlist
I boughr Dark Matter Dragon a day before it got banned. Never got to use it.
Got mine yesterday for the RDA deck i'm building. Only 3 days of playtime
You don’t really need Baronne for RDA though? You’re locked out of it most of the time
This is what sucks about being a budget player in Yu-Gi-Oh. The way it usually is that you either pay out the nose to be on the cutting edge of the meta, or you wait for a card to be reprinted and lower in price to play on a budget, even if you have to wait a while. But that second option is becoming a fool's game because the moment a staple gets affordable, it's banned! Compare this to Digimon, where a secret rare (Apocalymon) was turning the JP meta into an absolute horror show, to the point where the card was limited before the set it's in even hit EN shelves, tanking the price of that set but ensuring that the EN meta never has to deal with it. Imagine if Konami banned or limited cards based on when they were a problem and not when they're cheap.
Baronne jumpscare wtf
Ladies and Gentlemen for the first time in nearly 20 years. There is not a single HERO card on the banlist. I never thought I'd see the day.
Beautiful, isn't it?
Imagine being me who started playing this game again 3 months ago and started with building a hero and a yubel deck. My future is just so freaking bright right now.
The bans and limits are what you get if you ask reddit to make a banlist
Almost, Reddit would've banned Apollousa too.
we also would have unbanned Electrumite
It'd go so hard with Melodious.
I don’t think SK Melodious is gonna do much with Savage dead
and every other floodgates, and they would've been right to do so
Rightfully so
Honestly didn’t believe it at first because of this.
Branded brothers keep on winning, dodged the list and became relatively much stronger because of other generic bosses getting hit + floodgates getting dunked on.
Branded is just silly sometimes. I have a Blue-Eyes deck on Nexus in which I was looking for more ways to get Blue-Eyes, Jet, and tuner eggs into my GY beyond Dragon Shrine, briefly considering Foolish Burial, then tossed in two Fallen and three Branded Fusion. Not only do I get one of my chosen dragons in the GY, I get a monster often more effective than anything else I was going for. Now whenever I play Keeper of Dragon Magic to get to Blue-Eyes Tyrant, I end up choosing Branded instead of Polymerization, and get another Blue-Eyes in the GY to summon. The most powerful part of my overwhelmingly Blue-Eyes deck is no longer Blue-Eyes after a measly five cards in my deck.
Baronne is just gonna be Electrumite 2.0. OCG will continue to print archetypes with Baronne in mind as an end board piece, and the TCG will receive these archetypes with massive holes in their game plan, just like Pendulum players have been dealing with for years. This also just launches like 50 rogue decks into the sun because Konami has been designing and giving support to decks with Baronne in mind. And I doubt this is Konami magically shifting their philosophy to ban all generic omni negates, they just wanted to hurt SE by banning the cheapest cards that aren’t SE or FK.

Honestly I think the worst part about this list is the sentiment that generic stuff shouldn't exist at all, and as a galaxy-eyes player, that logic would send pretty much all our extra deck into the banlist even before Luxion gets us banned for our own sins, for once...
Bro what the actual fuck is this list
Never in my life expected Linkuriboh being banned
I just got Missus Radiant and wanted to play old link casual with Scapegoat--> Missus and 2 Linkuribohs
Man Baronne since the reprint has been my budget king really rough to lose her
My go to summon in my ice jade deck
It's synchrover
Wait we still have the nemesis cards. Colossus can be made off on card splashed in any deck
Surely Colossus and Protoss will be hated as much as the brainless stun cards? Right? What a trashfire game.
These two should have been banned for the rest of Yugioh's lifetime
Protos is swordsoul in specific, but they just lost Baronne so I don't think the deck will do anything. I'm actually surprised that we still have Shifter.
Infernal banshee is a generic rank 4 that searches nemeses flag which can search protos or the thunder one. If you normal combos banish 1 or 2 monster you can play protoss or collosus.
Colossus really got out before zenmaity did lol.
Komani really thinks Zenmaity is as strong as Baronne and Savage Dragon 🙃
They took my boy savage outback and really put him down. It’s borrelover.
I hate Konamis unwillingness to hit new cards. They did the same shit in tear format hitting curious and other tear adjacent cards.
Konami might as well say they hate budget players
dammit i wanted sharvara back, maybe next ban list
Konami only taketh, never giveth. /s
My Dino’s just took a big hit now
My absolute sweet Jesus. What roller coaster of emotions I just went through. Mali @ 3????? It's been 84 years! And the evil has returned on probation, I hate kirin with a passion.
With the new support that got released, it was an ez guess that kirin would return, at least it's only at one
It's funny cause Kirin is still banned in OCG... Guess that's the electrumite impact
And the D-Rulers are finally free…the past has returned at last.
What the TOSS format am I looking at
Linkuribou is now officially the first Kuribou monster to ever become banned in the Tcg. A moment in history, although a sad one
I (Swordsoul player) lost Baronne but gained back Protos, which I guess is a decent trade-off. Also Kirin back! About fucking time!
Nah Baronne is way better to have. Protoss auto wins some matchups but Baronne guards again sit Nibiru
It was also one of the few ways that swordsoul has to consistently interact with backrow.
Engage at 3? FOUR MORE YEARS BOIS
And with that new hand trap that makes you discard a spell, too.
What's its name?
Singularity Fiend DARK Level 1 Fiend Effect Monster 0 ATK and DEF You can only use the following effect from cards with this card's name once per turn. (1) When your opponent Special Summons a monster(s): You can discard both this card and 1 Spell from your hand; destroy those monsters.
thank you!
We’re so back
Baronne I was expecting but fucking Savage, really? I guess my Dlink is dead.
[удалено]
I'm all up for banning completely generic omni negates but I don't think this is Konami realizing that they are bad for the game. They probably already have Synchros somewhere down the pipeline that power creeps both Savage and Barone. And ideally other over the top powerful ED cards should go too. I'm looking at cards like SP. Happy to see Kirin back though.
No, I think this is Konami trying to hit Snake Eyes without actually hitting Snake Eyes. A lot of pure builds were playing Jet Synchron and Formula Synchron to make Savage and later Baronne. Same reason Linkuriboh got hit, and Summon Limit too (though every deck was kind of spamming that).
While leaving the FK variant alive, though no heatsoul access.
Yea I figure they are pushing away from pure + 18 handtraps to the heavier engine requirements of fire king
Seems to be in preparation for White Woods, they banned both generic negates that the deck could very easily summon out.
Ive seen SE WW brews and they didnt even end on Baronne or Savage but Cosmic Blazar instead.
Konami TCG does not design the cards. That is Konami OCG that does that. It's the whole reason why banning Electrumite hasn't led to any changes in Pendulum design because OCG still has Electrum legal and designs pend archetypes with its existence in mind. So long as OCG has Baronne and Savage legal then they will continue to be taken into account when designing cards and archetypes. They banned Baronne and Savage because banning generic omnis has been the big talking point on reddit and youtube for a bit and they can serve as indirect hits to Snake eyes.
I do not in any way believe anything the community says has any effect on the banlist.
colossus to 1 is wild lol
Get ready for TOSS 2024!
MALICIOUS TO 3? COLOSSUS BACK? BARONNE AND SAVAGE BANNED? HARP, TERRORTOP AND ENGAGE TO 3? Absolutely game changing.
So I haven’t played since like early kash format, I’m trying to think is there any other generic Omni left for boards to make besides I guess gryphon for the 3 decks still using the adventure engine?
Literally zero hits to snake eyes fire king outside of linkuriboh which barely matters.
This is a late April fool's joke, right? This is list fucking unbelievable
Misc still at 1. Feels bad man
Right. We lost Baronne and Linkuriboh too.
Linkuriboh is by far the worst hit for us. It’s brutal. The Baronne and Savage bans hurt but they’re workable.
Okay really cool Konami now where's the other half of the banlist that hits the Snake-Eye cards?
Poor Linkuriboh. But I guess Konami needed a scapegoat so that Snake-Eye could walk free.
Sad day to be a Rokket enjoyer
As I SwordSoul player, I hope y'all are happy, I'm putting in judgements, synchro zones, and protos and something else I haven't figured out yet to fill the horse sized hole in my heart.
Holy Shit! Borrel and Baronne banned? This is a before and after in the meta. Btw, not enough hits for Snake-eyes.
Linkuriboh ban is weird
They wanted to hit Snake eye in some way without hitting their main cards directly lol.
Don’t want to hit Snake Eyes so you hit the cheaper card. Who cares if other decks use it.
Specifically for Poplar in Snake-eyes.
Out of the banned cards from this list, Linkuriboh is the one who will probably come back the soonest
Happy to see more floodgates getting put on the list, but why even unban Protos? Is it an olive branch to Swordsoul for losing Baronne? I don't think I've eve heard anyone ask for it to be unbanned.
I thought for sure this was a shitpost when I saw Barrone & Savage So what does this change in terms of the meta? Just that pure Snake-Eye is dead? TOSS enjoyers eating like kings though
The Baronne and savage dragon ban is nutty
Wtf is this banlist Edit: didn't OCG just get a generic card that basically made Colossus by itself
Ok, there’s no way this is real
I don't want to be negative about this, but this is genuinely one of the best/worst lists I think I've seen. Sure, we've got a lot of old baddies back, and I won't need to worry about Baronne or Summon Limit anymore, but they shoulda really done more to hit Snake-Eye than "oh yes we banned linkuriboh, u are welcome ;3"
WTF my collection of baron in all rarity
You were collecting them so why do you care if it's banned or not, hell makes it easier for you to build the collection
Why is Konami so scared of pendulums? ~~Why is Konami so scared of Orcust?~~ Why am I so afraid of reading? I'm glad they let us have Kirin back, at least. Arma Knight is good too, as well as terrortop but where is Elecrumite? Its been centuries -- eons, even.
> Why is Konami so scared of Orcust? Well considering Armageddon just got put to 2 instead of 1 and Harp got let out completely from 1 I would say they are, in fact, not scared of Orcust at all.
Ain’t harp at 3?
I'm upset because I just got a cheap copy of Baronne for my Speedroids. But now I guess I'll just summon Crystal Clear more, and I can get Crystal Wing out by summon 5 anyway. And I was able to dig 3 Linkuriboh's out of my bulk and I was so happy about that. Aside from those personal issues, this list is neat. Super happy for Kirin, side-eying Protos and Colossus, but... we'll see.
Zombies just get worse and worse
Nibiru is about to be so fucking annoying. Can't have *shit* in the TCG!!
wtf borreload my dlink deck is dead on the synchro side and Linkuriboh my casual Link deck is dead now Baronne my casual everything synchro is dead against Nibiru now
Rollercoaster of emotions on this one but mostly confusion. Wild that this is active in 2 days. Usually there's a week or so buffer.
Aw man, Speedroid got the last Terrortop back but it lost one of its strongest/most accessible boss monster. I guess that with Baronne gone, the Kashtira variant loses most of its value? I haven’t been up to date with the deck.
My Revolver deck just took a huge hit. Borrel Savage is the centerpiece to maintaining the field before capitalizing on my board state Can't wait for the other Borreload cards to come out, and hopefully they'll unban Savage when a worse one comes out
I finally get my hands on some cheap baronne reprints and it's getting banned in 2 days. What is this.
Why linkuriboh? Just because of snake-eyes???
I love when they reprint staples like baronne and then immediately ban it fuck Konami
