Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duelcontinues to thrive, since ourlast banlistguide.
Similarly,Salamangreat Gazellehad been limited to one copy but is now semi-limited to two copies.
Cards such as these have had their rate increased due to being power crept out.
Imperial Order
Imperial Ordermade it so Spell cards would just not work.
This card was used in control decks such as Eldlich which leaned more heavily on Trap cards than Spells.
Imperial Order is a strong counter to decks like Sky Striker due to the archetype’s heavy Spell reliance.
Combining this Rank 9 Xyz Monster with Imperial Order would have almost zero possibilities.
True King is basically an I am not going to let you play this game card.
It would not just stop Monster effects, but even Monster attacks.
Vanitys Emptiness
Vanitys Emptinessis another card that would make the games current state unplayable.
Going first, you could create your huge combo, and have numerous Monsters on the field.
Then when it is your opponents turn, they draw a card, and you use Vanitys Emptiness.
Now they cannot special summon any Monster.
Replacements for Vanitys Emptiness can beFire Prison,Summon Limit,Kaiser Colosseum, andThere Can Be Only One.
Most players, and I, have been using Denier to replace Celestial.
These five cards were all additions to the Forbidden List.
Outside of Celestial, the tactic they have in common is to create an unplayable situation for your opponent.
Prank-Kids Meow-Meow-Mu
Prank-Kids Meow-Meow-Mugoing from three copies to one copy was a massive nerf to Prank-Kids decks.
There really is no substitute or even a replacement for Meow-Meow-Mu.
Prank-Kids do not have another Link 1 to start their combos.
This will allow you to have more divergent win conditions that both work effectively in combination with Prank-Kids.
Crossout Designator went from semi-limited to limited.
Replacements for Pot of Prosperity arePot of Extravagance,Pot of Duality, andPot of Desires.
Thankfully, two copies of Skill Drain are still ideal and do not harm previous decks too much.
Card drawing of any kind is always the pivotal strategy to gain additional resources than your opponent.
It does also give a nice small 100 attack boost to all Beast-Warrior monsters.
Hopefully, this guide gave you a better understanding of why Konami limits or even ban certain cards.
Each of these cards can be dismantled for a crafting material refund until September 29.
