I remember unironically using Grinder Golem back in the day when it first came out. I used it in my old Destiny HERO deck as it works kinda' nicely with Plasma. Gives you two of the three tributes needed to summon Plasma, the Normal Summon lock doesn't matter because Plasma is a Special Summon, and then Plasma can hoover up the Grinder Golem for an extra 1500 ATK. Good times...

[@beenjamminbunny9977]

I'm surprised to hear people thought it was a joke. There have always been cards that take control of an opponent's monster, and that was obviously the idea behind Grinder Golem. Maybe not top tier when it came out but it's easy to see how it could be useful

[@NeostormXLMAX]

It was a staple in inferno tempest decks

[@JohnSmith-oc6gm]

It is a joke. People make plenty of fun decks with gimmicky strats that you screw around at your local card shop on a weekend. These videos are speaking more towards meta decks that are consistent and flexible you can take to tournaments. Having a card that only combos with 1 other card in your deck and neither is easily searchable isn’t nearly reliable enough to begin with. And it’s a minimum minus 1, even if you pull the combo off, that can fall straight into a Bottomless Trap Hole. If you need reliable token generation for anything, a plant engine with Dandylion works better or just use one of the many spell/trap cards that gives you 2 or more weak tokens and absorb one of your opponent’s monsters with Plasma to come out net 0. A few hundred more attack on an already strong monster is no where near worth a -1 let alone also hindering flexibility with the chance of dead draws.

A point about Solemn Judgment - the card always seemed super strong to me. I wasn't really that competitive as a kid, but I went to a couple of locals, and Judgment was a total house. It was less that the card wasn't good back then - it was good from day 1. It's that a lot of the player base hadn't figured out that Life Points "don't matter". I started to notice this perception shift among the player base as they played against the card - at first, half of your LP seemed like a huge cost, and then you lost the game to a Solemn and realized "hey, that card is pretty good!". I also feel like the card was more popular with people who played MTG, at least at my LGS, probably because MTG theory was better developed than YGO theory at that point, and the MTG community had already long since realized that winning the game at 1 life was acceptable at worst, and hilarious at best.

Best boss monsters of all time Cards that never be unbanned Best one card combos Best cards that nobody plays Best synchro/xyz/pendulum/link monsters Joke decks that become broken

[@TrueClipsDen]

Wtf!? I knew the dragon rulers we're basically the best deck ever and they all deserved to be banned but why the hell was tempest the only one allowed to come back!? (Not complaining. Wind is my favorite attribute)

[@handeyesbizarreadventures4914]

I think it's the weakest of the 4 Dragon Rulers that from what I heard. So that's why Tempest came back to 1 in the OCG.

[@TrueClipsDen]

@@handeyesbizarreadventures4914 that would explain it. There's not many good wind decks. I could only imagine blaster nowadays. I don't play anymore but I'd assume it be a good boost to gouki

[@BloodfelX]

Super Rejuvenation always seemed like a good card to me, I just never knew how to really make it worth playing - even in Dragunity decks from the 5Ds era. It stuck out to me like a "Card of Safe Return" or "Heart of the Underdog" in that it had the potential to let you draw way too many cards.

[@Choppermad]

@TheDuelLogs Cold Wave a common from pharoah's servant a card that wasn't widely used until yata lock was in full swing. People played it at first to stop the counter plays to yata and chaos emp and then realised locking your opponent out of traps and magic for a turn is really good. The ban however came a little later due to it's wide use, not because konami thought it was broken, but because it stopped board interactivity or counter play, which as an opposing player feels really bad and ruins the natural flow of the game.

Darn! Super Polymerization and Mudragon of the Swamp are in Duel Links

[@archwing3441]

I might just be ignorant, but I think it's not as good in duel links because not too many decks run same attribute, different types. Shiranui runs pretty much completely zombies, Dark Magician is pretty much all dark spell casters, and black wings are all dark winged-beast. Although there is a single moment where you can make a big comeback against black wings, when they go for hawk Joe. But other than that, I don't think too many meta decks run same attributes but different types... I say that but I run Dragunity who would actually get blocked by this -_-

I dont know about you guys, but i guess we all are Yugioh OG's, so my opinion is all those cards should have their original anime effects Of course they would be banned, BUT HERE IS THE POINT (especially for the gods): it is far better that no one plays those cards because they are banned because THEY ARE GODS and OP, instead of like it is today , no one plays them because they weak and shit

[@sebastiangrayjustinussen]

[@astralguardian5930]

Another thing to think about in Duel Links is that Cup of Ace's negative effect is still good in deck out strategies, stalling or forcing your opponent to deck out. So Positive means more tools to deck out your foe, and "Negative" means that the foe is down 2 cards in their deck.
