Yu-gi-oh! March 2012 TCG/OCG Ban List Discussion

Well, since the majority of the people commented about the list, I will do the same and share my two cents on the subject. First, the list (From Shriek. If you want to view it to see if it is a legit list, go here.):

NEWLY FORBIDDEN:

Glow-Up Bulb

Spore

Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier

Trap Dustshoot

NEWLY LIMITED:

Tech Genus Striker

Agent of Mystery, Earth

NEWLY SEMI-LIMITED:

Marshmallon

Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner

Emergency Teleport

Shien's Smoke Signal

Level Limit Area B

Torrential Tribute

Ultimate Offering

Reborn Tengu

NEWLY UNLIMITED:

Call of the Haunted

My thoughts are as follows:

• Agents and Tech Genus got hit.
• Plant Engine is dead with Spore and Glow-Up Bulb gone.
• Inzektors, Wind-Ups, and Rescue Rabbit decks remain untouched.

It's not much to say about how, but what will you do to counteract the situation?

Now that you saw the Card Discussion on selected cards for Dark World, I'll ask you this: "What decks would be playable this format?" List would be as follows:

• Six Samurai
• Gravekeepers
• Dark World (with or without Skill Drain)
• Hieroglyphs
• ...and a few others.

And for the OCG, many new cards would be printed that could possibly overtake Wind-Ups/Inzektors. It's true that more people will quit because of the new list, but it doesn't mean that we can still have fun in whatever decks we use.

Now that the OCG Ban List is out, decks can be made to adapt to the new situation, which means I'll be able to do March 2012 OCG Ban List Deck Building soon.
