Konami changed set order in MD to do something interesting. They released the Ishizu Cards before Tear and made a different meta with Chaos Mill. But now for some reason instead of releasing things like Melodious, Zarc Support and normal Fire Kings they just speedrunned Snake Eyes release to make everyone suffer because none of the decks on the meta can compete and we end with different flavors of the same deck.

That’s only happened twice though. Once when Cyber Stein got banned and then again when they hit PePe with a list that wasn’t even enforced and was actually optional for locals to use. Glads, Teledad, Nekroz, Zoo, Spyral, and Tear never got emergency banned. Neither did other top decks that never quite made tier 0 and were absolutely worse to play against than any of the tier 0 decks, like Pendulum Magician FTK, Danger Darkworld FTK, Gouki U-link/Gumblar hand loop, dark warrior turboing into Rhongo, Azathot turbo using the PK RUM, S0 turno, etc. Emergency lists aren’t the norm and never have been. The most recent one happened after a deck had numbers that only Zoo and maybe Ishizu Tear and Spyral could eventually match, while setting up end boards that were beyond degenerate for the time. In the TCG they set up CDI while having old pendulum mechanics that guaranteed follow up, and in the OCG they still had Shock Master.

[@dariuspenner2528]

Yugioh does ban problem cards though. Cards like Linkross, Knightmare Goblin, and Gumblar lasted a single format before getting hit on the next ban list. The issue with SE is sorta the same as with Tear in that it’s hard to pick a single hit that actually makes the deck reasonable, unless you’re fine with just killing the deck outright. The deck can’t function without Poplar since it really needs the extra body. Banning OSS frankly doesn’t do enough since you still have Bonfire and Ash at 3. Banning Ash obviously just kills the deck. Same with banning Flamberge. I think the best way to address it would be to ban Princess and IP, but I don’t even know if that’s enough. I don’t see how they end on anything worth caring about with either of those two, but I was also in the camp that thought eviscerating their end board would make the Fire King variant more popular and look how that went.

[@Jyxero]

​@@dariuspenner2528I.P would be a great start, going +3/4 by resolving her into LK / Unicorn / Apollousa...

Since tearlaments, we’ve been through kashtita and snake eyes all format where rogue was impossible at the highest stage. This is what happens to a card game with no rotation after 25 years. Magic at least has different formats many of which get continued product support. Just like humans will blow ourselves up after we reach a certain technological point, I believe Konami has hit the point of no return. Any product they release will need to be able to beat snake eyes, Kashtira, and branded. This is probably why the Ocg uses maxx c as a nuclear deterrent. It over inflates their rogue scene

Baronne: Absolutely, i'm happy its gone. Every deck was running this card, and having to always play through an omni-negate is frustrating. Savage: I guess. It wasn't prevalent in other strategies (the entire reason it was seeing play was because of Formula into Baronne). Still glad its gone, though its bad without Baronne. Linkuriboh: It was only really a problem in Snake-Eye, it should come back after the tier 0 crisis is over.

[@n4b5ter41]

They only banned baronne because no1 would want to that fiendsmith trash if it was legal. Scummy move imo

[@FrostReave]

Not every deck could actually make Barone and it’s effect is also once while on the field which is infinitely more fair then other generic negates. I don’t particularly care one way or another but I just find fault in your thought. Savage is one of the most problematic generic negates. The only reason it’s found more tolerable is because it’s harder to use outside of super heavy combo decks. If we are gonna take out negates be thorough Link Kuriboh is a generic link 1. Every generic link 1 is a ticking time bomb waiting for the right deck to come along. If this thing actually gets summoned it’s for the wrong reasons.

So, I've had a thought ever since the previous banlist came out... If "the fix" to the Tear-Ishizu deck being problematic was to limit every relevant card in the deck to 1 copy, then what the hell was Konami doing banning anything that wasn't specifically a Snake-Eye card? Shouldn't Snake-Eye receive the same treatment? I have become convinced that someone very high up at Konami holds sway over the banlist and is the one who designed the Snake-Eye archetype, hence why not a single Snake-Eye card has even seen a "limited to one" status, never mind being banned.

Yea konami didn't want to hit snake eye at all with the current banlist. Sure they also played baronne and borrel, but that doesn't change the fact that snake eye is still the 1 card combo deck right now.

[@nm2358]

Snake Eyes is just a frustrating to play against. Short of some bad miss-plays the deck is a quick-effect spam grind machine that can narrowly avoid you OTK'ing them and proceed to combo you into oblivion next turn. That's issue when quick effects and recursion spam are THAT abundant throughout the deck's design, and Konami's response to the meta is seemingly, "can we break another game-mechanic with this deck, to replace the other deck we broke?" And the answer is always "no." The best deck always needs to be taken out to the woodshed every format now just to get new cards in rotation, and it feels so predatory to the player-base. Part of that is just how badly designed Links are as a mechanic, but its mostly this ass monster and spell card design that makes the game so bizarrely toxic to play randomly format to format.

For all the shit tearlament format took. Let's look at this tier 0 one : Snake can't beat snake eye unless it draw minimum 2 handtraps. On the other hand, tearlament mirror wasn't determined by the first 5 draw and aside from bystial, the only handtrap that saw play was orange light.

[@wanderlustwarrior]

There's so many "one card combo decks that generate advantage off of everything," and they're barely ever fun to play against at all, let alone AGAIN AND AGAIN in EVERY format. Snake Eye is a serious problem right now, but even if those cards get hit, it's just on to the next for stupid powerful engines. I'm already tired of facing Horus in Master Duel, for example. Even if it's more beatable, it's hardly ever actually fun. The game itself is fundamentally broken, and some people keep wanting to pretend generic extra deck cards are the problem instead of *the cards that get you to them while getting more advantage.*

While I do understand the hope of "banning Baronne and Borreload will open up design space for new types of end board pieces", it has to be understood that this will ONLY happen if Konami OCG follows suit. They are the ones who design the vast majority of elements of the game. While, of course, we do not have any proof of this because Konami never communicates with is, the OCG R&D teams may look at Baronne and Borreload and think "No, we think these are fine." And will then continue to design new cards and archetypes with the understanding that decks will be able to summon these monsters, and that is completely okay by them. Because we don't have access to them, when we eventually receive these new cards, they are so much harder to justify using because the payoffs for using them that we have available just may not be worth it. And if they're not worth using, then they're just another huge waste of translation work and materials. It's the same reason why Pendulum archetypes do so poorly over here; it's because they're built over there with the existence of Heavy Metalfoes Electrumite in mind, a critical piece for the mechanic that we just do not have. Now, I don't necessarily hate the idea of banning Borrel and Baronne(I have a lot more to say about the topic but that's best saved for another place), calling it an immediate win for the future card design is making a lot of assumptions. If anything, it should be another reason to rally for a total unification of both formats, so this doesn't even have to be something to doubt.

[@maxmanramfan]

Snake Eyes needs to get hit with some bans, but more importantly, Konami needs to figure out how to make new cards that don't run headlong into ridiculous power creep. Tier 0 formats are a super short sighted approach to game design. Players will notice, and sooner or later you will hit a tipping point. It won't be a slow leak of players dropping out over a few months. It's going to be one big chunk leaving at once. Then that causes another chunk to leave, and pretty much over night you've lost too many players to stay profitable. Ban a bunch of problem cards (Masqerena, Little Night, Ash, anything that's a "must have" in the main, extra, or side deck for 80% of tops). Then go back to legacy decks and build some support to bring them up from "trash" to "playable". Reprint some classics with new art. Make retrains for the stuff that should've been erratad years ago. Give us some a murky format without a clear dominant choice and let it cook for a bit before pushing out a set with transparently greedy chase cards. I know people have been predicting the end of Yu-Gi-Oh every time a new Tier 0 arrives for half a decade now, but those voices get louder and more numerous each time for a reason.

I've said it before and I'll say it again unless there is a massive ban list that hits a lot of things and you bring the power stealing of the game down significantly this is going to be the pattern that continues to happen over and over and over again with the some exceptions here and there. The only other solution to this is set rotation but God forbid anyone try that. I give a lot of credit to people who stomach this but at what point do you say am I actually enjoying this game or am I doing it out of necessity because I've invested too much time money and friendships into this game and you're too afraid to move on? I know that sounds pessimistic and you don't want to hear that but as someone who left the scene still watches the content I still have friends who are part of the scene I just don't talk about it anymore. Your friends are your friends because they like you not because you have something in common. You can always find new hobbies that can facilitate this need but to bring it back to the beginning unless they change the game drastically this is going to be a continuous pattern where hitting generic extra deck stuff doesn't do anything anymore because their deck design is just so bad. Because if you think that this is not going to be a problem again after snake eye gets hit in a matter of months there is going to be probably yet another tier zeroed format within the year mark my words

[@jarom1144]

It's not just a banlist. In some ways a banlist is just konami pushing their agenda. For example, I wouldn't mind to much if they hit snake eye just little and left it tier 1 or 2.
