[tsukuyomi]

Why have they brought Snatch Steal back and banned Graceful Charity again??

The one thing i really hate about this list is the banning of Breaker and MOF. Soon there wont be any decent spellcasters left to use as most are banned!

I think they should have unrestricted Apprentice Magician on this one as there is now only Old Vindictive Magician, Pixie Knight and Hand of Nephthys that it can fetch now. I think they should restrict Magical Scientist too and ban Catapult Turtle, that would at least give the spellcasters a decent monster to use. Unrestricting Injection Fairy Lily isnt a good enough replacement for spellcasters as nobody would ever use 3 anyway.

Restricting Future Fusion and Overload Fusion slows down Chimeratech a bit but dosent stop it being a OTK deck. I guess when the Zane pack comes out with rare Cyber Dragons and super rare Chimeratech then everyone will be able to afford to run them, which is when they will probably be banned.

WHY MAGICIAN OF FAITH!! THATS STUPID< AND BREAKER TOO!! THEY KEEP GETTING MORE RETARDED EVERY TIME!!

whats crush card virus do?

[Kuragari]

whats crush card virus do?

Its something like.. "tribute one dark monster with 1000 atk or less. All monsters with an atk of 1500 or more on your opponent's side of the field is destroyed and monsters with 1500 or more atk in his/her hand is sent to the graveyard. Your opponent reveals the card he/she draws in the draw phase, and if its a monster with 1500 or more atk, send it to the graveyard. this effect lasts for three turns" Something like that, except shorter..

yeh.. no more breaker. eeh. ima make a deck destruction deck.. XD

[Ethereal Blaze]

although i dont play anymore, i laughed when i read this. this will make some peeps REALLY angry glad i quit.

[Kuragari]

Half on my friends do Phoenix decks and they were all, "I'mma use three/two Phoenixes now, hehe"

[Hinato kazuya]

On a scale of 1-10 i hate snatch steal at about
10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

[Kuragari]

Whats the deal with limiting Mind Crush to one? Is it because it lets you see your opponents hand or somethin?

[tsukuyomi]

Mind Crush - Declare 1 card name. If your opponent a declared card(s) in his/her hand, discard all of the declared card(s) to the Graveyard. Otherwise, you randomly discard 1 card from your hand.

Im not sure exactly why its restricted other than it possibly being a cheaper version of Confiscation. Its also good anti-Gadget tech.

I was building a Mind on Air/Mind Crush hand disruption deck with DD Designators.

snatch steals a great card. and besides, you cant hate it that much, because you limited your scale to 10, and 10 only. so, you hate it at a 10 ratin yay for pedanticism

Snatch Steal causes so many cheap wins though. You could be losing all the way through the match and then just draw Snatch Steal for the win.

[Yuri Volte Hyuga]

Well, I'm not playing the TCG anymore. Banning Breaker? Geez......

[Kuragari]

Lol, yeh, the Breaker was a kick in the butt, wasnt it? XD

[Ethereal Blaze]

you could say the same with Mind control, and other such cards that allow you to control your oppents monster. the Element CHarmers, Brain Control, SNatch steal, Jowls, its all the same really. the only difference is that SNatch does it quicker

[Lucia Skyfire]

I have officially given up caring.
