Thoughts on the Banlist

Ok. Since I was Yu-Gi-Oh online-ing the whole day ytd I didn't even realised that the banlist was out until this morning. So, here are my thoughts about it.

New Forbidden Cards 「禁止カード」

Confiscation 「押収」
- Didn't expect it to be back here again but this always means that your hand is safe on the first turn...

Snatch Steal 「強奪」
- Quite expected.

Metamorphosis 「突然変異」
- I wasn't expecting this. In fact I thought they'd make it 1. Maybe they saw too many Cyber Twin/End Dragons...

Ring of Destruction 「破壊輪」
- Quite expected the same as Snatch Steal.

New Restricted Cards 「制限カード」

Magician of Faith 「聖なる魔術師」
- Yay! Its time to play back apprentice with Breaker =x *dun genocide me!*

Breaker the Magical Warrior 「魔導戦士 ブレイカー」
- Welcome back Breaker! Watch out for Pulling the Rug...

D-Hero Disk Commander 「Ｄ－ＨＥＲＯディスクガイ」
- Guess they dun wan us to abuse it...

Card Gunner 「カードガンナー」　
- Expected restriction. DS-sama must be sad...

Snipe Hunter 「スナイプ・ストーカー」　
- Nvr saw this one coming. It always gets into 1 & 6 for me.

Megamorph 「巨大化 」
- O . o Must be because of demise...

Brain Control 「洗脳－ブレイン・コントロール－」
- Expected restriction too.
　
Smashing Ground 「地砕き」　
- Quite expected too.

Fissure 「地割れ」　
- Not expected. But understanable.

Trap Dustshoot 「ダスト・シュート」　
- Expected! Looking at opp hand IS gay afterall.

The Transmigration Prophecy 「転生の予言」　
- What the? How did this end up here? Maybe some gadget deck was running 3...

Wall of Revealing Light 「光の護封壁」
- To hell with stall decks. =D

New Semi-Restricted Cards 「準制限カード」

Jinzo 「人造人間－サイコ・ショッカー－」
- Not an expected thing but I'm sure DS-sama would be quite happy wif this.

D-Hero Malicious 「Ｄ－ＨＥＲＯディアボリック・ガイ」
- Ok, lets throw them away now.

Red Gadget 「レッド・ガジェット」　
Yellow Gadget 「イエロー・ガジェット」　
Green Gadget 「グリーン・ガジェット」　
- Guess they decided to do something about them...

Pot of Avarice　「貪欲な壺」　
- Yay! MMPT!

Nobleman of Crossout 「抹殺の使徒」
- !!! Good bye Saint Mag!

Royal Decree 「王宮のお触れ」
- Didn't expect this to be here...

New unrestricted Cards 「制限解除」

Protector of the Sanctuary 「神殿を守る者」　
- Well, nobody plays 3... except for Colin.

D.D. Assailant 「Ｄ.Ｄ.アサイラント」　
- Nobody plays 3 of this too anyway.

Good Goblin Housekeeping 「ゴブリンのやりくり上手」
- Play wif Emergency Provisions? Hehe.

Deck Devastation Virus 「魔のデッキ破壊ウイルス」
- Nothing to say... Nobody plays too much of this either.

So I guess thats about it. They didn't touch L&DD like everyone speculated. Frog & Raiza wasn't touched either. Colin is lucky his 3D frog didn't get banned!
We really can expect beatdown decks soon. I'm not sure how Raida decks would be affected but I feel that the change will be little.
