Because everybody is doing it

I got bored on Pojo, so I made a slightly troll-ish list which actually came out decently. This isn't any sort of prediction, though I would applaud Konami for being ballsy enough to do something like this. When I made this list, I had a few objectives in mind:

1.) Reverse all the power creep

2.) Kill all the stuff that Konami failed to hit

3.) Kill off as many FTKs as possible

4.) Hit cards that could become problematic if they weren't hit.

And after a bit of arguing, debating, and some very lulzy feedback, I came up with this.

Forbidden
- Dandylion
- Fishborg Blaster
- Gorz the Emissary of Darkness
- Mind Master
- Morphing Jar
- Royal Magical Library
- Sangan
- Chimeratech Fortress Dragon
- T.G. Hyper Librarian
- Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier
- Empty Space Sea Serpent Levaiel
- Foolish Burial
- Future Fusion
- Giant Trunade
- Limiter Removal

- Monster Reborn- One for One
- Life Equalizer

Limited
- Archlord Kristya
- Blackwing - Sirocco the Dawn
- Blackwing - Vayu the Emblem of Honor
- Debris Dragon
- Grapha, Dragon God of Dark World
- Gravekeeper's Spy
- Lonefire Blossom
- Karakuri Steel Shogun mdl 00X "Bureido"
- Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En
- Pot of Avarice
- Dimensional Prison
- Trap Stun
- Ultimate Offering

Semi-Limited
- Reborn Tengu
- Dewloren, Tiger King of the Ice Barrier

Unlimited
- Magical Stone Excavation
- Megamorph
- Mystical Space Typhoon
- Overload Fusion

I think I weakened just about everything with this list. Might need to touch Glads, but according to the actual feedback I got (ignoring people QQing about me hitting their decks, people who just don't like me, and randoms wanting HS back) this would be a good list.

I suppose I'd better explain a few things on here.

Dandylion

It's pretty much become Destiny Hero - Disk Commander number 2. If your rectal orifice is not damaged due to floral interaction with it, you probably don't play Yu-Gi-Oh! very much.

Fishborg Blaster

To prevent Baha coming up with another FTK with it. It's been abused for quite some time now. It's also an indirect hit to Monarchs, which is nice. Also hits Bunny.dek.

Gorz the Emissary of Darkness

As much as I want OTK preventing cards in the game, Gorz is a bit too much in my honest opinion. Getting a +1 because you let yourself get into a bad situation is a bit silly. You can also synchro with it or its token.

Mind Master

It's Substitoad's cousin.

Morphing Jar

To kill of any empty jar FTKs. Also an indirect hit to DWs.

Royal Magical Library

Because it should have been banned a long time ago.

Sangan

This got some criticism, but a lot of people are getting fed up of this little *******. It searches way too much in this game and lets people Synchro summon way too easily.

Chimeratech Fortress Dragon

People complained when I banned Limiter Removal, so they recommended this as a sort of trade off. It's fair enough I guess, two less derpy cards in the game.

T.G. Hyper Librarian

Obvious ban is obvious. I see people limit this on their lists and I'm just thinking "Nooooo".

Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier

Because dropping it normally leads to a game win. Awful card design on Konami's behalf.

Empty Space Sea Serpent Levaiel

Call it a preemptive hit. This thing is screaming abuse.

Foolish Burial

Because its doing a lot more harm than good.

Future Fusion

Because this card is starting to get out of hand.

Giant Trunade

People keep QQing about this card, so I gave it the banhammer. I got responses like "Now there aren't any mass back row clearers", to which I reply"Good". No more OTKs plx.

Limiter Removal

Why is this still lat 1?

Monster Reborn

Because people asked me to.

One for One

Should've gotten the final nail in the coffin long ago. These sorts of "Summon from deck" cards should not be around imo.

Life Equalizer

Because of the FTKs.

Archlord Kristya

Because it's overpowered.

Blackwing Sirocco & Vayu

If the OCG wasn't still obsessing over BWs, I would've given them something back instead of hitting them. Seriously Japan, just let it go.

Debris Dragon

It's also an Exceed spammer. This might be unnecessary, but better safe than sorry.

Grapha, Dragon God of Dark World

If it weren't Virus compatible, it could hang around. Infinite revival is stupid.

Gravekeeper's Spy

Has now become an Exceed spammer too. That, and GKs need a hit. People will go back to them once all the other decks are hit.

Lonefire Blossom

Because summoning an entire type from the deck is silly.

Karakuri Steel Shogun mdl 00X "Bureido"

It's a themed  Librarian. This got some funny feedback. People told me it was unnecessary. I gave them DSummon's build and they went to DN. Afterwards they understood why this thing needs to be hit.

Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En

I didn't feel a full ban was necessary. Once it dies, it wont be coming back.

Pot of Avarice

Obvious hit is obvious.

Dimensional Prison

Random, but why not. You can just shove it in a deck and derp derp control your way to victory.

Trap Stun

Because it enables OTKs. At 1, it's not nearly as strong.

Ultimate Offering

Because everybody else wants this hit. I don't care for it, but I may as well.

Reborn Tengu

I don't care if it's an exclusive, it needs a hit.

Dewloren, Tiger King of the Ice Barrier

Because of looping.

Magical Stone Excavation

Unless there's something I'm missing, this could happily come back to 3.

Megamorph

Demise OTK is so inconsistent, especially with so few OTK enablers left after my hits.

Mystical Space Typhoon

Because its not unbalanced in any way, shape or form. It doesn't need to be semi, I don't know anyone (aside from maybe scraps) who would main 3.

Overload Fusion

Why not? Future Fusion is banned.

Well, that was fun. Comment or rate if you really want. Don't rate down because you disagree with the list though, that's not what the rating system is for. =/
