Also Provisions in Gwent. You have a 150 Provision limit and strong cards have more Provisions. If you fill your deck with strong cards, you will run out of Provisions before reaching the minimum deck size of 25. NGL I think it's a good mechanic, not sure how that would fit in Yugioh.

[@JohnnyD1986]

[@MomirViggwilv]

Serious answer: before turn 1, there is a simultaneous "turn 0" where both players set a number of non-continuous spells/traps from their starting hand depending on who's going first - first turn player can set 1, second turn player can set any number. These traps (or quickplay spells) can be activated from turn 1 onwards as normal, as if set in the previous turn. In essence, this rule would kill the idea of hand traps as a classification of cards. Regular traps would be albe to disrupt your opponent's first-turn plays just like handtraps, allowing potentially hundreds of power-crept trap cards (e.g. Lost Wind) to suddenly become viable again. It would also make spell/trap removal competitively viable, since it can be used to remove the set cards your oppenent played turn 0; spell/trap removal would essentially fill the same role as cards like Called By The Grave or Crossout Designator. If the existing trap pool provides too unweildy for this rule to work, they can instead print a new class of traps called "Fast Traps," which act as normal traps and are the only ones that can be set during this turn 0. Maybe some old trap cards could be erratad to be Fast Traps.

[@dudono1744]

Dinomorphia players on their way to make Rextrem turn 0.

[@MomirViggwilv]

@dudono1744 Probably would have to ban some of the existing trap decks, yeah. That's one of the reasons I suggested the Fast Traps idea. Although certain trap decks like Traptrix would actually be totally fine under these rules.

[@luminous3558]

Just. Print. Good. Trap. Cards.

[@MomirViggwilv]

@@luminous3558 You cannot print good trap cards because the fundamental rules of the game makes trap cards bad. The most important part of a Yugioh game is the plays you make turn 1, and a card you set and does nothing until turn 2 will always be weak. This is why they printed Imperm and they're starting to print cards like Dominus Purge: they can be activated from hand turn 1. So instead of just adding this line of text at the end of every new trap card... let's just make that a thing.

[@Viarus46]

​@@MomirViggwilvThey are able to make good trap cards like Daruma, Impulse and Imperm. What they are unable to do is spend more than like 30% of the card pool on something that isn't monsters. And for some reason they love printing shitty win more traps and archetype traps that never get used for anything but extension and overkill.

Set Flip monsters can flip face up as a quick effect, they effectively function like trap cards. This is a feature exclusive to Flip monsters. Changes to the banlist to accommodate such a change can be made, but I doubt it. Bring back separate Pendulum Zones, placing pendulum scales is not considered a spell activation.

I think the new master rule shouldn't really be a rules update but a card design update. Like, make the cards and card text bigger (I swear I actually need a magnifying glass to read the cards) and implementing keywords unironically would make the game just a little less complex. It would require a shit ton of erratas, but I think it would be beneficial for the game itself.

[@rinoportier556]

They just simply have to switch to how the ocg writes their cards, with all effects divided and each with their own number. And then at the start of the text there is a phrase that goes like " you can only effects 2 and 3 of this card name once per turn" This way you can also easily check which effects are hard once. But I doubt they will ever make a change to how cards are written here....

the idea of getting rid of the banlist and giving every card in the game a "power level" which cant exceed a specific threshold is actually a really good idea. maybe keep the banlist as well but only cards that are FTK enablers or alternate win conditions that enable games to completely freeze (self destruct button, final countdown etc) stay banned.

Actually there is a format created for this. İt is called trinity format. You can look it up. The meta is diverse and duels are back and forth.

This mechanic kinda exists in a game called the sacred cards. Every card takes up deck space. And your deck space depends on your level that gets up every time you duel.

[@yslei2855]

Siding only once per match is only fine before game 1 IMO. Imagine if your opponent won game 1 and decided to side for game 3 and give up game 2, while you do not have that freedom since you needed to win game 2.

[@jeanpitre5789]

Better suggestion. Master rule 6: eliminate side decking and make the game a best of 2 just like Lorcana is. This eliminates garbage side deck BS and significantly reduces time needed at tournaments.

[@Jyxero]

​@@jeanpitre5789The declist on tournaments is public knowledge? If so, it seems worth, as you should prepare properly (Aka the supposed use of sidedecking... Not preparing the cards that ONLY works turn 1/2)

[@jeanpitre5789]

@Jyxero the fact that decklists ARE public knowledge is even MORE reason to eliminate side decking and make it a best of 2 instead of 3. It means there's no CREDIBLE reason a player should be blindsided by their opponent going first/second and not having the proper responses anywhere in your deck. Ideally, it'd be exactly like master duel except each player gets a chance to go first, meaning you have to build your deck with a wide majority of matchups in mind when deck building, and doesn't give an automatic free win to someone who can side-deck out a perfect counter after wining game 1. It's entirely unfair as is because the vast majority of the time players winning round 1 are winning the match because they know what you're playing, your likely counters, and can side-deck against it, or if not, will scoop round 2 to assure their deck is properly optimized to win round 3. A best of 2 with NO side-deck eliminates ALL OF THIS, plus the problems of tournaments running overly long. No one will scoop because scooping means at best you tie and in tournaments you can't afford to tie and settle for 1 point. Lastly it's a better show of deck-building jn and of itself. As the game stands now, a massive amount of matches don't come down to skillful deck-buiding but skillful side-decking, weather that be a massive amount of floodgates, handtraps or board breakers for the specific situation. Anyone who's ever played a game without side-decking knows that it's much more balanced competitively and leads to more well rounded deck-building as opposed to heavily aggressive deck-building with the side-deck bridging the defensive capabilities of the deck once you know the matchup.

The benefit of the duel links ban systems is the argument that "[insert busted tech card] is necessary to give the the rogue decks a chance against the meta decks" actually has some relevance.

With the current ban system, these cards would need to be banned since the meta decks can abuse them too.

As for what the Duel Links forbidden list does on a practical level, it allows the ban list makers to more easily target troubling decks without harming the weaker decks as much or to the same extent. Example: Set Ash Blossom to limit 3 along with two or more cards from a strong archetype like Snake-Eyes/Fire King, forcing the player to forgo consistency for possible interruptions or keep consistency with no hand traps. Another weaker archetype with no limit 3 on its main archetypal cards would not suffer and could slot in the 3 Ash Blossoms no problem. This feels so much better than what the current TCG has.

[@LadyTsunade777]

Master Rule 6: Timing is fixed, ALL "when" are now errata'd to "if". Also, you can normal Summon/Set once per Main Phase. Fixing Pends: Pends are free from MR4 (can Pend Summon to any zone, regardless of Links), you can use any Spell/Trap zone as Pend Zone (but only up to two at a time), and if a Pend card is in a Spell/Trap zone as a continuous spell or continuous trap (ex if your opponent put one of your monsters there with a Snake-Eye effect) then it counts as being scaled. Fixing Floodgates: All generic and semi-generic floodgates are banned. TCBOO, Gozen, Rivalry, Skill Drain, Anti-Spell, Secret Village, D.Shifter, D.Fissure, Macro, Pachy, Boarder, Amano Iwato, etc Fixing Tokens: Tokens can't be used as material for any Special Summon, unless specifically listed as materials (card has to say specifically the word "token" in the materials) Fixing Rituals: Rituals are now ED monsters. ED is expanded to 20 to compensate.

'Kindred Monsters' that require materials that share an Attribute or Monster Type perhaps?

[@richardgriffin96]

to continue the powercreep trend its: if you control a monster you can use this monster a monster that shares its level and type/attribute from your deck to summon this kindred monster

[@zephshoir]

What I am surprised they haven't tried out yet is new types of Spells/Traps, something different from the usual Continous/Quick-Plays in a fundamental way that wouldn't and couldn't be explained within the text box. Heck, I would love more Counter traps that didn't just negated effects and summons. Also, fundamental rule changes could be explored by making them their own format. On the other hand, please no more Extra-Deck card types...

[@neusyns]

Master rule 6: Side decks are now exclusively for handtraps and are included in each duel like the extra deck. At the start of the duel: Turn 1 player draws from main deck, Turn 2 draws from side deck Shift roles per turn player shift This eliminates bricking, limits each deck to 15 hand traps, and gives each nonturn player draw a guranteed form of interaction while turn player draws guaranteed engine

[@Ltp1305]

"You are allowed to set any number of monsters" Subterror players be like

[@TheLordTash]

"Hand Traps go in the side deck" is pretty similar to an idea I had for a new extra deck mechanic. They're just monsters that summon themselves for free, even during your opponent's turn, if certain conditions are met. The trade-off is that each also has a "cost" that you have to pay by attaching cards from your hand face-down to it, and the attached cards return to your hand when your opponent removes the monster from the field (the cards get banished if its removed from the field any other way). So like there could be Not-Ash Blossom that triggers when the opponent searches a card and interrupts it, but it costs 1 card from your hand. Then your card is just stuck on that monster until the opponent decides to get rid of it, so they have to think carefully about the timing of destroying that monster. Could also be used for things besides hand traps, like an extender that costs 2 cards to use and only summons if your opponent has an extra deck monster on the field.

[@dudono1744]

I had a similar idea, but free and once per turn by game mechanics. Also the condition would always be based on what your opponent controls.

[@Viarus46]

Maybe they could be backrow cards that set themselves first as a warning akin to YOU'RE FINISHED

[@artrix5092]

That power % at the end seems interesting.

[@MrGshinobi]

Could work for a digital game, not for a physical one

[@Nothing2Say]

instead of having formats like goat, edison etc. you could make power % formats, where for example only decks are allowed that have a specific power % or lower. if you know pokemon showdown, we could have tiers such as uber (no banlist), ou (top meta, current format), uu (rogue decks) nu (meme decks) etc. if a meta deck wants to participate in a lower format than it belongs to it wouldve to remove all staples such a handtraps for example. however you would have to give every single card in the game a power rank which would make this pretty much impossible.

[@L_O_V_E_L_A_I_N]

It feels based off the point system used for Canadian Highlander (fanmade MTG format). I don't hate the concept but I think it should be its own separate thing, not the main YGO format.

[@artrix5092]

[@KumiStellari]

Flip effect monsters now act upon their "Flip" typing. they are placed face-down vertically in the zone (like a trap in the monster zone), and can be flipped at any time during the main phase as a quick effect, and when flipped this way, choose their battle position while being flipped.

[@13silentpoets]

3 suggestions: 1. When a player special summons their opponent draws 1 card (permanent reciprocal Maxx C) (allows for board breakers/ hand traps to be played in fewer quantities + assures some disruption every game) 2. Can NORMAL summon NORMAL monsters as many times per turn as you would like (garnets now become extenders/ extra damage + Gemini is back baby) 3. Remove the 'summoned properly' restriction on ED/ritual cards. If I want to 'monster reborn' 'Demise king of Armageddon', just let me.

[@13silentpoets]

I am taking no criticism

[@Stinkoman87]

Your suggestion might make normal monsters playable again. They could serve as a summon engine but not an advantage engine. I think that rule is actually pretty fair.

New master rule - Master Duel gets a best of 3 format with side decks. That’s it.

[@RamixTheRed]

This format exists its the Master Duel Meta tournaments

[@xcmasterrunner]

After watching this...Never doubt Konami again. but for real me and some friends made a new format since we didn't want to limit our card pool to GOAT, and it's been going pretty well. [LSSN Format] Limited Summons: 1 Normal Summon/Set and 1 SS (+ an additional SS per turn played) each turn, keeping track of the count via dice; limit excludes Extra Deck monsters. [ e.g. First turn: 1 Normal / 2 SS; Turn 4: 1 Normal / 5 SS ] Limited Negates: 1 Negate effect each player's turn; limit excludes Counter Trap cards. Players start with 6 cards, but don't draw for their first turn. Extra Decks have 20 cards. I recommend giving it a try. Gives Mirror Force, Raigeki/Dhole, Solemns, Forbidden spells, and other older cards some new light, as well as just being a lot of fun.

[@conflagads5238]

The Extra monster zone is limited to it's use once-per-turn, would greatly slow down link climbing, but wouldn't limit summons due to co-linking and thus making the zone much more vital.

Activating a Pendulum Scale is a hard once per turn. So you can only activate one Pendulum Scale named "Lunalight Tiger" or "Performage Plushfire" per turn. (You can still set multiple scales as long as they all have different names) Cards cannot miss timing

[@bej4987]

Let trap cards be activated in main phase 2 if set in main phase 1. Reduce the extra deck to 10 cards. 2 normal summons. Level 7+ monsters can be summoned with one tribute.

The first-turn deck will become crazier if it is straight up 2 normals. There is a past video like this suggesting 1 normal for each MP, which I really like. This means the first turn player only gets 1 normal while the second turn player can use BP to help break the opp board and still have a chance to build their own board during MP 2.

the more i think about it, the more the "hand size grave" idea doesnt sound too bad. u want to abuse snow? then u have to also banish some cards from hand or field. want to have grave followup? u have to chose what cards u want. it wont break the game since most of the times (unless u play tear) the grave is just filled with pots, imperms and ashes so u can just banish those and keep the important card, but still, i really ike it.

to make it simpler, from more important to least important winged Pendulum scales. optional extra deck rituals start in extra deck, but if later down the line got returned to hand (compulse), or recovered (avarice) it goes to hand/ main deck respectively. all when effects are treated as if effects, but have priority in chain link. (so they don't miss timing, but you have to activate optional when before optional IF) you can pendulum summon in unlinked zones equal to 15- Extra deck cards you started with this duel. 15 Extra means non, 13 extra means 2 per turn, etc.

[@thomasdogkas2618]

No Joke I have been thinking little bit of it and the more i think the more I like the old idea of boss monsters. That's how I would imagine working thought : 1) You have one from start to finish 2) The will have some eff that will help your strategy 3) Most important of every boos master would interact in a way with how you build the deck for example: -A specific boss monsters if you wanna play Skystriker for example would have some beneficial effect of course but woul require you to play for example a 40 size deck with 25 spells and not traps making you play more boardbreaker aproach - Example 2 monster heavy boss would require you to play 1 atribute or type having boss monsters helping those kind of decks - For a multitype and multi atribute decks their might be specific archetypical boss monsters with other restrictions The basic idea is to make boss monsters that restrict and slow the game down in a way and push the idea of more diverse deck building. The cam even make it more like 3 categories of boss monsters like how other games have colours with specific deck building requirement and specific restriction to each type and printing different boss monsters for each specific category where the ristrictions would be there but the for the category and but the effect would differ.

Honestly as some one that used to play competitively and swapped to playing casual i think the game is way too fast and complicated. You literally have to read a memoir on any deck or combo you want to do. I'm in favor of and will come back to the game if they implement any thing that slows the game down. I'm sure there's some paint eaters that will say "OMG no the fun is 50 card combos and winning bc your opponent doesn't draw a hand trap against my 1 card 8 negate board it's so much fun" and to you i say you are entitled to your opinion but id rather play literally any other card game bc of that which is sad bc i love ygo

[@VegetaPOAS100]

To help bricking. Going first draw 5 draw 5 more. You can keep 1 hand the other will go to the bottom of deck no shuffle. Game starts. Now for going second instead of 5 like normal draw 6 draw 6 more put one at the bottom of deck no shuffle. Neither going first or second draws a card. This way going second will know if it's even possible to win and not need to wait for your opponent to finish to know if that 1 card you draw helps.

[@SlaytonSlaytonSlayton]

Trap phase: The player going second gets to set traps that can be activated that turn before the duel starts.

Took the most popular reasonable submissions along with my own and compiled them. All hand traps go to 1 each. Hand traps go the Extra Deck. Ritual monsters go to the Extra Deck. Extra Deck goes up to 20. Both players can mulligan after deciding who goes first.

The one rule I wish was implemented in pretty much all card games is the chess clock rules. Each player got their set amount of time and if you run out you lose. This solves issues of going to time rules and no need to call judge over slow play ever again.

New monster type which would be summoned with tribute summons and be summoned into spell/trap zones with some sort of powerful field card effect which affects both players. If they get destroyed, they go back to the hand.

[@GunnarWahl]

New master rule: alchemy monsters are introduced, they’re made of 2 or more face down monsters by default with more specific rules on the card. They exist in the extra deck but are two sided cards, one side a dark red and the other a bright blue. The dark red side is the “face down” defense and bright blue the “face up” attack position. They always count as face up monsters in the extra deck. And when alchemy summoned, they’re made to always start in face down red color side (which like links, only has a defense stat and no attack stat, other side is opposite.)

[@justalyx7952]

- You can Tribute Summon in addition to a Normal Summon/Set. - Link Monsters cannot use lower ratings to link up (No dumping Prom Princesss for Masq) - Must use linked monsters or Link Monsters to link up (Materials must point to arrows) - If a Link is in the EMZ, Other extra deck monsters must be summoned to it's arrows (Only when its there) - During the End Phase, if you did not activate an effect or all effects were negated or fizzled you can draw 1 more card (A bit of a stretch but we need some sort of balancing for "unbreakable boards" that isn't just printing more spell speed 4 cards and hand traps)

After time is called, continue the current turn until the end of the battle phase (what would be moving to MP2 is now the end of the match). The player with the higher life total at the end of of that battle phase wins that duel. If the duel is currently in MP2 or the End Phase, finish the current turn and the player with the higher life total at the end of the turn is the winner. Minor change, but allows some things to happen that otherwise wouldn't (turn player getting to move to BP, End Phase effects resolving, etc.)
