Mighty Zarquon! - fridginators ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Azza Fridginators" Date: Fri, 01 Apr 2005 17:06:51 +1000 MIGHTY ZARQUON! (hitch hikers guide to the galaxy). Why are people GLAD about this new ban list? I AM ESPECIALLY TALKING TO YOU ANTEUS, EVEN THOUGH YOU AND ME AND SEAN GOT THE TIPS RUNNING AGAIN! This new ban list is crap. Let us go over why. DELINQUINT DUO COMING BACK! : This card earns the spot of MOST BROKEN CARD IN THE GAME and is the 3rd best card in the game. This card is pure evil. I have had it used on me TWICE IN TWO GAMES, BOTH WHILE I WAS HOLDING BLS! Dont you see how this card is basically like cheating? It knocks your opponents hand down enormously and is the best card in your opening hand! BETTER THAN POT, BETTER THAN GRACEFUL EVEN IF YOU HAVE SERPENT. All the pre negators are great. Confiscation is the worst and is the only one that COULD have stayed. It's banning isnt too big a deal but delinquints UNbanning is huge! This card, (dare i say it) IS ON PAR WITH THE SIXTH SENSE! THATS HOW GOOD IT IS! (Vehemet Valuables in DM7FGD's articles if you want to see it). Way too powerful, why not run some drop off as well to utterly KILL THEM! V lord semi'd : Now for those people (anteus) who says it sucks think again. DONT LISTEN to my underating of this. In a zombie deck it is the BOMB! DDA will see play to take this out but will not be run in as many numbers, nor can he take out turtles and reapers. This card should not be semi'd why DDWL is restricted. BTW you can not bottomless him if he is summoned by a turtle (way more than likely). Graceful/Painful Switch : As yokiano (lander) said, Painful is a tool which requires you to thin out your deck skillfully, and helped strike ninja A LOT! Graceful is just something which makes you draw into your cards. No skill required. Serpent is too broken with painful. Painful stay, graceful adios. Berserk/DDA Not being restricted! : These cards basically define aggro, along with EBO. Why these cards werent even semi'd i will never know. Berserk was a mistake to create. 2000 is just too hard to deal with when it keeps beating you down. Argh berserks are really annoying and DDA is just to tone down some aggro a bit. BLS not being banned : Yatra in advanced basically. Nuf Said Tribe not being banned : Tribe is such a generic card. Warriors run it. Spellcasters run it. Chaos runs it. Earth sometimes runs it. The point is that Tribe is just too powerful and it OWNS torrential and lightning vortex. Mirror Force is also too powerful and neither of them should be OFF the banlist. Serpent not being banned : This is one of those cards like jinzo that should either be restricted, cos NOBODY would run 2. lol. As pook said, or was it paladin? Discarding should be a COST! Not with sinister serpent, a card that will 9.99999/10 come back to your hand. You should have to use card to dump your cards. Breaker not being banned : See tribe and change it to "breaker" and "m/t". Makes people use dust and NoE more often. a pleasant change. See why the ban list is SO BAD? If you still like it go ahead and flame me. But i dont. I am not whining because all my powerful cards got banned/restricted (which isnt true). I am complaining because a lot of necessary steps that should have been taken to kill some generic cards werent take. People are HAPPY (yes, HAPPY) that Delinquent Duo is back! Honestly, i think that more steps should have been taken. And also that there should be THOUGHT into banning cards. Why do people say banning Elma was a good idea? WHO RAN THE CARD? 1 person out of 1000 probably did. WHO USED THE MAKYURA/CHICK/CALL COMBO? NOBODY! Think about who actually used these combos before saying that it was a good idea to ban them. Honestly, im not saying the game is dead, hell no! I am not complaining about the ban list killed my deck which it didnt! I am complaining that NOBODY IS COMPLAINING! This ban list SUCKS! It is worse than even the 10 card list! Certaintly is scum compared to the 13 card list. It was brilliant, revolutionary and most people loved it. This ban list POMOTES unoriginality and all around CRAPINESS! Oh well i will try to live with people being absolute ignoramouses. Dont try to be cool. Dont try to be part of the pack. Dont run Chaos cos everyone else is. Dont give up. I am perfecting my gravekeeper deck as we speak. as i have been preaching. i am also deciding between a control or a monarch deck for a team tourney with my friend. I am just telling you, think about what you do. This ban list is really bad and if you can name 5 legitimate (or even 1) reasons why it is good email me right now at shiny_golden_boy@hotmail.com and ill read it. azza / fridginators ph33r th3 fr1dg35
