its the same in every card game funny enough. Magics early creatures are garbage compared to black lotus and the power 9. Pokemons early trainer cards are busted draw power to draw into what? basic pokemon

[@madnessoverload7824]

I think these cards weren't broken when they came out precisely because there weren't any strong monsters that could fully take advantage of their effects. They only became broken when those stronger monsters were released. Back when Konami designed those cards, they thought that paying life points and sending cards to your graveyard were actual downsides.

[@christopherreichle6670]

@@ich3730 this is only semi-true of magic. I decided to peer into the set list for Alpha; besides not actually having a lot of creatures, there's a nice handful that are still recognizable today as they're playable still. Ofc no one's playing lord of the pit anymore but the mans producing creatures and lord effects are definitely still welcome somewhere in the game.

[@rolypoly4920]

I think that was sort of the point. You (the player, duelest, whatever) were casting spells to support the monsters that you were summoning. I think it was an RP kind of thing. Most monsters were normal monsters that had to beat over other things to get you a victory, so spell cards had to be good.

So basically: Trap cards are too slow to see actual play But if you make them faster they are too strong ... Broken game mechanic? The way I see it konami broke their own game by overdoing graveyard effects, which made the game continousely faster and faster until it reached a point where an activation in the "next turn" was already considered too slow ... what the hell man

[@Drakorre]

Yep. Especially since we even have traps that activate from the hands now

What you have to understand is the fact that Yu-Gi-Oh card game has been there for like 20 years. Everytime they release new cards, they have to make them stronger than the last cards that they released, otherwise there would be no point in buying new cards, meaning Konami would not make money. So when you have game that has been out for like 20 years, you will have to start releasing "broken" cards and with time (20 years worth of time) it will come to the point where the game mechanics that were thought of at the beginning (trap cards) might become "slow" compared to what the meta game is.

[@TheFeri]

I would say they overmade search and speacial summon effects. If solatire decks would not exist trap card would be usable.

[@StruffyTheClown]

@ Yeah no, of course some sort of power creep HAS to happen, i fully understand (and actually support) that. New cards with powerful effects keep the game interesting after all. What I dont understand is how the developers and smart heads over there at konami can even let it happen that players now borderline consider the graveyard as a second hand.

There was a time when the graveyard was just that: a collection of destroyed monsters and used-up spells/traps. A card sent to the graveyard was as definite disadvantage. But soon the effects that can recycle cards from the graveyard became so commonplace, they came up with the concept of "removing cards from play", which later became known as "banishment". Now, however, we have cards that can reliably recycle banished cards as well, so I wonder what'll be next. A new term like "utterly eradicating" cards, maybe? :P

[@joanaguayoplanell4912]

Last Turn got gutted by rulings long ago and could come back no problem. The main reason it could be used to cheese wins was because back then you could activate cards regardless of board state. You would just resolve the effect as much as possible (wich meant you could use something like ROTA without warriors on the deck just to have an easily activatable spell if you needed to, mainly in Magical Explosion FTK) Right now, you wouldn't even be able to legally activate the card if a summon floodgate is active on the field. Additionally, the main way to drop yourself below 1000 LP, Inspection, was clarified by rulings to be a hard once per turn, even if the text of the card was never updated. And even assuming you managed to jump through the hoops and get out a retardedly massive monster like Gren Maju to safely resolve Last Turn (that for some reason you couldn't just use to beat your opponent on it's own), the card is just too slow to ever be useful anymore.

@@dark_rit Drawing 2 cards is not really the broken part about the card (a lot of archetype cards can do that too, sometimes even better), the broken part is that every single deck will just auto include this card as it is neither situational nor has any downsides, it's never wrong to play this card.

I haven't played Yu-Gi-Oh! in 16-17 years and know absolutely nothing about the current meta. I find it funny, though, that I am still familiar with about half of the cards on this list. This list resonated with me because my favorite card of all time is Painful Choice. Before it was banned, of course, I used to run it. This seems like a no-brainer to everyone nowadays, but when it came out, at least in my Yu-Gi-Oh! circle, nobody ran it. I was sort of the first (in my group and card shoppe, that is,) to recognize its brokenness. I was so notorious for my Painful Choice plays that on one memorable occasion, my opponent gave up immediately after I went into a 'long think' and then played Painful Choice. He knew that after my various calculations that I would only play it if it meant I would essentially win. I think the art is awesome, too.

[@juwanbantug5465]

Learn Japanese From Some Guy I mean, with an effect that basically screams, "I will choose 5 cards from my deck where all of them are equally really good in the graveyard, then force my opponent to choose which combo piece stays in my hand and the rest is dumped into my 'second' hand", it's no surprise that a card like this has no chance of getting out of the banlist. This is a card that's just utter bonkers in most meta/graveyard decks.

[@Learnjapanesefromsomeguy]

@@juwanbantug5465 Oh yeah, no doubt. It is a ridiculous card. I don't know how long you have been playing, but at the time, though, the graveyard wasn't really seen as a 'second hand.' The meta was so different then that it wasn't strange to think of Painful Choice as a bad card.

[@juwanbantug5465]

@@Learnjapanesefromsomeguy I honestly haven't played YGO ever since the XYZ era. What I am aware of is that even back then, certain decks/archetypes (Ex. Lightsworn, Dark World, most zombie decks, etc.) wanted cards in the graveyard to start/extend their combos. Painful Choice is essentially a combo accelerator (and not just an extender) to these kinds of decks as not only was this card an easy way to fill your graveyard, but you yourself also got the ability to select multiple cards that you wanted to be in the graveyard, rather than wait for a few turns to draw those cards, or find some card/effect that allowed you to send a specific combo piece to the graveyard. It's essentially a Foolish Burial on steroids that could also allow you to send Spell/Trap cards that are better off in the graveyard.

[@Learnjapanesefromsomeguy]

@@juwanbantug5465 Yeah, for sure. I understand how the card works and why it is good. I am not sure you and I are talking about the same thing, though. The point I was just trying to make is that when the Magic Ruler set came out (2002), Painful Choice wasn't broken at all. So, running it in your deck was somewhat rare. I was simply stating that I loved this card and despite not being considered broken at the time, I had a lot of success with it much to the surprise of my opponents who considered it a lesser card (which, again, was common at the time).

@@Learnjapanesefromsomeguy I was introduced to YGO during the GX to 5D's era, so the meta I played in may have been different and slightly faster than what it was during the infancy stages of the game.

Okay, giving myself a challenge, how would I errata these cards to make them worthy of removal from the forbidden list: 10) Not a clue. 9) Like you said. Make it a hard once per turn.... that can/should also probably be applied to the other cards where possible. 8) Uhhh, include restrictions that keep you from playing it turn 1, like your opponent has to control a monster or 2? 7) Make it so you can only summon a normal monster with that.... I think that would do it. 6) Hmm, well the problem here is the amount of GY set-up it causes, so maybe if it just Banished the cards (face-down) instead of sending them to the GY, that would be enough?.... Oh, you suggested that yourself, Okay. 5) Oh, boy...... this one is tough. Uhhh, Okay, I think the only real way to do it is to go ham on the downsides, 1st, make it so that every spell card that is activated after that card resolves that turn (i.e. the cards it counts to determine how plus you get) will be banished face-down after resolution. 2nd, make it a hard once per duel. 3rd....... ohhhh, not so sure what to do for the third, but I feel like a third is necessary.... uhh, you loose a stack of life points for every card added to your hand? 4) Okay, again hard once per turn.... actually, maybe not even a hard once per turn, knowing how Supply Squad is doing. Either way, just limit the per-turn usage and you should be good..... and again, you mention that yourself. In case you couldn't tell, I am writing/typing this is I watch the video, pausing the video so I have time to do this. 3) Not so sure what to do with this one.... kinda to iconic to change. And any restriction I could add would probably be used to make a different card instead, after all, how many different weaker versions of this card are there that still see play, Desires and Extravagance are just the 2 most obvious ones. 2) Ugh, the iconic cards are kicking my rear end on this one. I don't want to skip out on 2 in a row. I guess, maybe, make it so that the cards you discard are random and that they get banished face-down instead? 1) Oooo, should have released this list sooner.... This guy just had an errata announced that should allow him to get of the ban-list. And Yes, they did change this in the same way they did the Temple.

Raigeki can still fuk someone up in a duel though, they wont expect it since hardly anyone runs it now lol

[@ObviouslyDeven]

Raigeki is still good, it's just that there are better options. If your opponent has set cards or monster effects that negate, then you rather use droplet or dark ruler no more, if your opponent doesn't really summon monsters at all (think paleo, eldlich or mystic mine) then lightning storm is better because you can use it in more situations. Or if they just have a full board in general, evenly matched is better since it banishes instead of destroying. Wiping a board with no cost is not as good because their effects still trigger. And 90% of the time there is one Monster that can really fuck you over if it get's destroyed by card eff. Not even going to mention that almost no raigeki will actually resolve in turn 2 since the turn 1 player should have his omni negates up

Anyone who's told you it sucks is either a meta sheep or doesn't know how to play the game. Granted the only reason why it wouldn't be as good is because there are a lot of monsters who are immune to destruction by card effects and there are some better cards available. Such as lightning storm. That card can destroy all your opponent's monsters or all their traps and spells. Though you can't control any face of cards and also too it still suffers from the same problem that certain Monsters can't be destroyed by card effects. But yeah, whoever told the card sucks is an idiot. I do see it from time to time on Master Duels. But folks usually run lightning storm in its place since you can destroy back row as well if you want to.

[@spades77]

@@ObviouslyDeven Now I will agree with you on everything you said here. Like I told the op. I do see it played periodically. But lightning storm definitely gets more FaceTime from my personal experience. The fact that you can get rid of monsters or back row is pretty good. Especially if you just started and you're on turn two with your opponent not expecting it. That can seal the deal in a lot of Duels.

[@ObviouslyDeven]

@@spades77 I mean, raigeki can still clear whole boards. Full power adamancipator boards usually don't even have a single backrow. You just droplet+raigeki and they're done. It's really just the fact that raigeki alone is usually not good anymore. You need their negates out for raigeki to actually do something. Though you can also use raigeki to bait negates.

There is no way they are banning preerrata Makyura before the errata becomes a thing in the TCG now, so the meme of "Makyura is not a banned card" will be eternal.

[@tacos3574]

Elma has a combo with evocator Chevalier where you can infinitely destroy opponents cards leaving them wide open for attack
