Thoughts on this banlist:
This banlist brings a notable change, with many cards being adjusted, potentially creating a major shift in the game's meta. Increasing the limit or allowing certain cards to be reused can create new opportunities for creative strategies, while some cards being restricted or banned will require players to look for other alternatives.
Notable changes:
Newly Unlimited (Increase to 3 cards):
Cyber Jar (2 ⇒ 3) : A very powerful card that can reset the entire game when activated. With Cyber Jar returning to 3, players can take advantage of this to have more chances to rebuild their decks, creating opportunities to come back in games. 🔄🃏
Danger!? Jackalope? & Danger!? Tsuchinoko? (2 ⇒ 3) : The "Danger!" set being increased to 3 for both Jackalope and Tsuchinoko is a powerful change. These cards are special because of their ability to draw cards for free and summon powerful monsters from the hand, creating flexibility in building combos. ⚠️🐍🦊
Eva (2 ⇒ 3) : Eva can help you track down and summon powerful cards, especially when combined with "Drytron" cards or other strategies that can take advantage of this power. 🌠
Performapal Monkeyboard (2 ⇒ 3) : As a card in the "Pendulum" group, Monkeyboard will support more in setting up Pendulum combos and increase the flexibility of Pendulum decks. 🎶🎹
Newly Semi-Limited (Limited to 2 cards):
Black Dragon Collapserpent & White Dragon Wyverburster (1 ⇒ 2) : These two cards belong to the "Dragon" group, often used in Dragon or Chaos-related decks. Increasing their limit to 2 helps increase the stability of Dragon decks. 🐉🔮
Maliss P Dormouse, Maliss White Rabbit, and Maliss In Underground (3 ⇒ 2) : These are key cards in "Maliss" decks. The reduction in numbers could impact decks that rely on the "Maliss" strategy, making them less flexible but still powerful. 🐭🕳️
Morphing Jar (1 ⇒ 2) : Morphing Jar is a card that resets both players' entire hands. Increasing its number makes it easier to use effectively, helping to restore the state of the match. 🏺🔄
Newly Limited (Limited to 1 card):
Bystial Druiswurm : This is one of the powerful cards in the current meta, capable of destroying the opponent's important cards. Limiting it to 1 will reduce the popularity of this deck. 🐉❌
Dimension Shifter : This is a strong card in stopping graveyard strategies. This limitation will reduce the annoyance for graveyard-based decks. 🚫⚰️
Mathmech Circular & Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King : These are strong cards in the meta, especially Circular in Mathmech decks. The 1 limit will greatly affect the power of these decks. 🔢👑
Triple Tactics Talent & Crossout Designator : These cards help counter opponent strategies, and limiting them to 1 reduces flexibility in dealing with opponents. 💥🎯
Newly Forbidden:
Knightmare Gryphon & Link Decoder : Both of these cards are extremely powerful in creating control and putting pressure on opponents in matches. Banning them would greatly reduce the control that can be applied in the match. 🦸♂️🚫
Abyss Dweller & Bahamut Shark : These two cards are great at limiting what your opponent can do from the graveyard or from the deck. Banning them will change the way players use XYZ monster summoning strategies. 🦈❌
Deck Building Tips for Newbie:
Focus on consistency : When building your deck, make sure you can easily find and use the cards you need each turn. Make sure you have enough cards that can help you draw cards or set up strategies easily. 🔄📚
Use a diverse deck : Especially for beginners, it is possible to use decks that do not rely on a single set of cards, but combine different types of monsters and strategies to increase flexibility. For example, combine Dragon strategies with Pendulum cards. 🔀🃏
Pay attention to timing : Cards like Dimension Shifter or Crossout Designator can help you prevent your opponent from executing powerful strategies. Pay attention to using them at the right time to gain an advantage. ⏱️💡
Use cards that can restore your hand : Cards like Cyber Jar or Morphing Jar will help you change your strategy in difficult situations, giving you more opportunities to find important cards. 🔄🏺
Choosing between "combo" and "control" strategies : Decide whether you want to build a deck that focuses on setting up quick powerful combos or one that controls the game for the long term. Both strategies can be effective, but will require different deckbuilding approaches. 🧩⚔️
