 * Should I delete this then? I was thinking it would be better to start this new thread about it though, rather than keeping it in the predictions. 99.162.190.65 (talk) 13:42, February 18, 2012 (UTC)

My opinions:

Forbidden

Glow-Up Bulb    I can understand this one, it has to be at 0 or 3 and its a really strong and splashable card

Spore     This one is stupid imo, they ban bulb, so the plant engine is hurt bad enough... but WHY also ban spore? Makes no sense to me.

Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier     We still have Mist Wurm, so I don't really care about this one

Trap Dustshoot       never see this card, limited would be fine, only usable on first turn. (most of the times)

Limited

T.G. Striker     Disagree, not needed IMO

The Agent of Mystery - Earth      Agreed that gents needed a hit, but why hit this?

Semi-Limited

Marshmallon       was fine at one,

Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner     with 3 judgment dragons and a second lumina, lightsworns might be back.

Emergency Teleport    Agree, teledad is gone, and psychics need this

Shien's Smoke Signal  no opinion,

Level Limit - Area B  disagree, we already have Gravity bind, and if you don't run XYZ's this card is a pain in the ass.

Torrential Tribute   would be fine... IF they had banned dark hole again

Ultimate Offering     makes sense

Reborn Tengu   same reason as d-hero malicious was semi'd some time ago, so agree.

Unlimited (only cards new to unlimited shown)

Call of the Haunted  Agree, who would run 3 anyway?

just my opinions Jens (talk • contribs) 13:39, February 18, 2012 (UTC)

Thats crap...non of my decks got hit (thanks god DW aren't topping,neither do blackwings) but im angry of these damn inzektors gonna run full potential for another 6 months anyway here are my comments:

well the rest are just lol LG talk My own Guides 14:17, February 18, 2012 (UTC)
 * trish-well we have mist wurm and brio (its gonna be 1 bouncy format)
 * dustshoot-had a feeling. Wanna see the opp hand? Run dragged down
 * bulb and spore-plants had it but yeah i still think that the card to hit is dandy
 * torrential-now ppl can go ahead and stop using dark hole
 * striker-cool agents got hit and that was the most annoying non extra tg
 * agent earth-agents sooo had it coming
 * level limit-just knew it.ever since bind got unlimited i knew this card is gonna be semid.
 * offering-oh well no comment it generates a very strong tribute engine (gadgets)

Wow, this latest banlist is completely Anti-Synchro. Trishula I can understand to a degree, and either Bulb or Spore would be bearable, but both? Seriously? I don't think Trap Dustshoot is powerful enough to be banned. Regarding T.G. Striker I'm on the fence. If they're going to hit Earth, they might as well take Hyperion with it. Marshmallon was better at 1, but I suppose Lightsworns could use an extra Lumina, since they haven't been that used lately. Emergency Teleport I'm ok with, but Shien's Smoke should've stayed the way it was. Level Limit was pretty obvious. Torrential Tribute might've been fine if not for the current status of Dark Hole. Ultimate Offering never should've been Limited anyway. I'm suspecting this list is for the TCG version, since I have yet to hear Reborn Tengu in the OCG, but many people saw its Semi-Limited status coming. My biggest surprise though was to see Call of the Haunted Unlimited and I'll say the same thing I did when BLS-Envoy of the Beginning was Limited-it can go right back on the list just like that. Overall,not very pleased with it. Hopefully the one in September will hit the Inzektors, and unlimit at least 1 of the Plant Tuners.--PoirotH (talk • contribs) 14:43, February 18, 2012 (UTC)

Man. Talk about 6 months of inzektors nothing to laugh at.i better make my decks inzektor-proof. Might think of making a rabbit deck LG talk My own Guides 15:02, February 18, 2012 (UTC)

(Response to "PoirotH") That one inzektor that equips onto another, then destroys a card hopefully will get hit in september (I'm going to be honest, every Inzektor person I Dueled, abuses that card so much. And I mean to the point where they can get rid of 4 of your cards with little effort each turn). Trishula isn't as bad as "Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier" (Brionac is more of a menace, and too easy to play. I'm surprised they didn't ban that instead of Trishula. I know Trishula can remove a card in 3 spaces, but the effect is only a one time use, while Brionacs return card ability, can be used as many times as you want).

Brionac's getting a reprint for Europe, Australia, and Latin America... Meaning no ban. BLS is getting an OCG reprint so he's still here. Apparently Konami doesn't like splashable engines, as they hit Plants and Striker. Of course, splashable Tour Guide and Rabbit weren't hit. Too new to lose profit? Or better yet, do they even make profit from sites like CoreTCG sales? Djjomon (talk • contribs) 17:13, February 18, 2012 (UTC)

Im seeing lots of sycnhro stuff getting banned, is this konami's way of making us play xyzs more by confiscating are best best synchro cards? I am ok with the list but I think konami will refuse to hit danylion any further because it is 1 of the few cards that encourage the use of tokens. It's maybe to keep the decks that rely on tributes alive. Wow even with both spore and glowup bulb sharing the "once per duel" line they both get banned?!?. I'm not seeing any new xyzs monsters take a hit, must be good for their marketing to spare them from the banlist. Looks like we will have to wait a few more formats before xyzs start to take some hits. Persoanally I want to see advanced ritual art go back to 2, seen as ritual monsters are hardly played at all, besides gishkis. The main annoyance for allot of duelists will be inzectors, wind-ups and dino rabbit not taking ANY hits at all. They 've been completly ignored despite how much they mess up the format. I was also hoping pot of greed would get limited, but instead konami taunts us with Shard of Greed, their way of saying pot of greed will never come back. We can only hope that the next format will be an improvement from this.
