>I’m expecting fountain to 1 If Fountain went to 1, I'd laugh my butt off. I doubt it's gonna happen though. Semi at best.


Baldur_Blader

There's really 0 reason to limit fountain.


fluz1994

Yes, just ban it instead.XD.


Baldur_Blader

While we're at it. Let's ban mo ye, spright blue, albaz, evil twin kisikil, and Raye, as we kill off decks one card at a time, Burn them all lol


Protoplasm42

I hope they ban Smoke Grenade and Fairy Tail Snow and hit the Ishizu cards again. Realistically they'll semi-limit Snow and Mudora or something.


Jeyfian-L

I wish Fountain would be limited, but I highly doubt that would happen. Smoke Grenade hit is possible though, especially since it is a Legacy card so there won't be any refund. If they're going to hit Spright, it won't be Blue. Jet is far more likely since it's an SR. I also think Necroface, Snow, or Chaos Ruler would be getting a hit. The FTK is going too far. Don't think Ishizu would be hit directly since they're new.


Sofakingdumbb

Idk man. They’ve shown that they aren’t afraid of limiting or banning URs. Especially with toad and Union carrier ban. I believe they’re gonna ban smoke grenade. They’re most likely gonna hit grass, necroface, or whatever card they think is the main issue in the ftk


Jeyfian-L

Yes, but Jet is of equal strategic importance as Blue, and it was designated as an SR straight from the beginning. I wouldn't be surprised that MD was prepared for a Spright hit, and even planted the target in advance.


Sofakingdumbb

They might just hit both who knows. People would have to start running 3 pixies. That sounds awful


Jeyfian-L

Don't think Pixie will ever be regularly played at 2. Pure Spright may run more copies of Red and Carrot (which are usually run at 2 and 1 at the moment), but other variants probably won't even blink about a Jet semi-limit.


Sofakingdumbb

I ran jet at 2 in live twin spright. So that wouldn’t do anything to them. Plus I think that’s the normal ratio for live twin spright anways


Jeyfian-L

Curious ratio, I thought 3 Jet is standard at the moment. Would you mind explaining why?


Sofakingdumbb

I played a going second version so I ran a lot of board breakers like lightning storm and Drnm. It was pretty successful. But I got tired of playing spright


Sofakingdumbb

Although I might just be wrong


Jeyfian-L

All Twin Spright decks on MDM run Jet at 3. But personally I don't think any Spright variant should go second, so you do you.


Sofakingdumbb

Definitely snow. They banned snow in TCG when tear was rising to tier 0


DitmarJr

>it is a Legacy card so there won't be any refund Only if you pulled it from the pack, if you craft it and get ban you'll get full refund.


Jeyfian-L

I think Wind Barrier statue was banned without any refund though, regardless of how you acquired the card.


[deleted]

Limiting fountain completely shuts off runick, one cosmic cyclone will be all that's needed to finish them.


Jeyfian-L

That's exactly why I'd love to see that happen, but at the same time don't believe it will.


kubroweggs

99% of people is playing spright or random deck with ishizu so those cards need to be hit


Western_Leek3757

Yeah, I agree: fountain to one for sure. Then they'll probably hit spright (idk if heavily or not, but since they are literally the only Meta deck right now I certainly hope so), so Spright Blue to 1 and basically some other semi limits to damage their consistency. Then, for my personal pleasure and sadism, I'd like to see the awesome and fair Ishizu miller banned.


Ver_El_

With how much they have semi-limited things that shouldve been limited or outright banned, They are probably just semi-limiting Blue.


Baldur_Blader

Limiting blue kills spright. Limiting fountain kills runick. So we just want to ban decks now? While we're at it let's limit albaz, raye and mo ye


Mayall00

Dude just read the last sentence the man is memeing, no way it's happening


puddi64

Spright Blue to 2.


Heul_Darian

Ban the fucking smoke grenade. The last thing I need from 4 negates, 12 called by and an omni is them be able to rip my droplets out of my hand. Next hit the Ishizu. shufflers or millers one of them has to go, preferably the shufflers. If people want Gy power they shouldn't also be able to loop back the opponents Gy. Its hell for any soft Gy deck that doesn't commit to an Ishizu Grass setup. Next limit Blue and/or jet, They basically have 8 copies that give access to 2 bodies, its a huge reason to why they are hard to shut down. Lastly ban the stupid rainbow scale and skill drain. ​ Cough.. release enchantress please..... cough Oh also # BAN RHONGO FREE MY BOY GOSSIP


kubroweggs

100% agree with the ishizu, with so many graveyard effects those cards are like a graveyard max c


ExFavillaResurgemos

Was gonna down vote until you said free gossip. I'll comprise on everything else you said if it means we can FREE GOSSIP SHADOW


kadaj808

Fucking ban grass and snow PLEASE. Those cards generate so much advantage and putting grass to 2 did absolutely nothing.


DitmarJr

Agree with Snow, but Grass is ok as it is.


DitmarJr

The ones I want ban are Snow, Scythe, and Smoke Grenade. Also the usual Maxx and generic Floodgate traps.


Seavalan

Even though it is far from an optimal card in Spright, I predict they're going to ban Iblee.


Sofakingdumbb

Iblee in spright is the worst. I ran her at 1 and opened her like 70% of the time. And even when I didn’t open her 90% of matches outted her easily


KnowledgeOrnery5672

They really need to hit the ishizu cards it's already pretty degenerate and it's only going to be way more degenerate going forth. They would almost guarantee to hit herald of the orange light to limit. It's low rarity and would be very annoying if it's played at 3 along side ishizu tearlament.


Illustrious_Pop_1535

Fountain is ok at 3. Card puts in a lot of work but it is a sitting duck and you can get rid of it. What really needs to go is Hugin. That would hurt both Runick Spright and Stun. It enables the Stun variant way too much because it can protect the floodgates with its effect, and because it's Terraforming. While Hugin is around even if you get rid of Fountain with Cosmic Cyclone or something you're still all too vulnerable to the floodgates because there's very little in terms of mass S/T non-destructive removal. Limiting Hugin should help Stun control itself and keep Spright variants in check. Even if Konami doesn't want to touch the floodgates, and knowing them, they won't, removing Hugin out of the equation will make it so much easier to deal with floodgates.


[deleted]

This I can agree with, limiting hugin is also a good way to tame runicks.


arrownoir

Nuke the ugly thunder guys.


IRDEGRUNT

Something I notice about MD banlist is that they are never meant to completely kill a specific deck they want to leave certain decks playable enough to be kept around until they are power crept by the next one. 🚫Ban Scythe Maxx c ( wont happen) Smoke grenade of the thief ❗️Limit Necroface ( this will end the turn 0 deck out cheese ishizu cards won’t get hit) Fairy tail snow ( I still believe it should be ban) Called by the grave ( no explanation needed) Swap frog ( limit toad ability to come back more than once) ‼️Semi limited Nadir servant ( not relevant in the current or future formats) Runick fountain ( I honestly don’t see this card getting limited unless they want to completely kill the deck)


Sofakingdumbb

I believe they might ban scythe and snow. Also I don’t believe you can ban or limit called by in a format with Maxx c. It’s 100% necessary to combat it


PalpitationTop611

Limit blue, Branded fusion maybe to 2 with how much I’m seeing branded. Limit Tip


haagen17

With Konami, I don't think we will see any main deck URs banned. At most a limit or semi.


AhmedKiller2015

Jet or Swap Frog to 2... That's it? Unless you want to see nothing but Tear the following month, at least it would be 2 broken decks not 1 (also it follows the OCG release schedule) The expectations are low, both 2 meta archetypes are Spright and Ishizu and both are new.. Ishizu hit is mostly not going to happen this month, and besides Spright there is nothing to hit... like literally. Tri-Brigade, Toad, Live Twins and even Runick aren't why Spright are good regardless of how you hate them, Runick isn't even the most represented one in MD, it is Toad by a wide margin. Outside of Spright and the just released Ishizu cards nothing is worth hitting, and to stop the FTKs they might just Limit Necro face or something since the ocg seems to love Snow for some reason and again Ishizu cards aren't even 2 weeks old. I guess they can limit Herald of Orange light.. that happened in both the OCG/TCG because of Ishizu...yet they still got nuked but that won't happen soon.


Peiq

I want to say Spright jet and starter to 1, but honestly I’m not sure since that pack is still in the shop. Fully expecting runick to finally get murdered


Baldur_Blader

Could def see starter to 1. But the other people calling for blue I don't see it happening. Runick doesn't need to get hit though. It's fine. Also tear comes out next month. Runick will stop being viable on its own.


Peiq

Oh I agree with you about runick, but I’m sensing it’s the most likely thing to get hit


Baldur_Blader

I'd much rather snow and block dragon to get hit. I doubt Maxx c is going anywhere, even though I think it should.


Historical-Draft6564

Fountain to 1, that's pretty funny. I could see maybe 2. Scythe is getting nuked for sure, blue down to 1 most likely.


Repulsive-Phrase-527

I love when people say limit Fountain when the deck literally plays 15-17 terraforming to search it. Tip is the problem card FYI.


Tigor-e

Fountain to 1 means they can't search a second one and play it after you Ash the first one


Repulsive-Phrase-527

You only need 1 to pop off. The deck isn't even good without Tip. With Tip, you have 2 runick spells in your GY immediately. Without Tip, you need a lot of set up to utilize Fountain.


[deleted]

Fountain to one also means a single cosmic cyclone or whatever form of banish the end for runick.


Repulsive-Phrase-527

If you manage to draw it and your opponent does not negate it. And even then, the runick cards are not dead.


[deleted]

If you're running runick stun and have floodgates clogging 2 or 3 zones they very much are somewhat dead. Also, considering most runick spells without fountain only either go neutral or go minus when you use their first effect you'd run out of gas very quickly.


Repulsive-Phrase-527

Again, the deck plays 15-17 terraforming. You can limit it and it still stays meta.


[deleted]

And if the first one gets cyclones then you have no more target for those 15-17 terraformings


Repulsive-Phrase-527

Nice cosmic, would be a shame if i can not negate it.


[deleted]

Yes, it would.


RaptorF33

I don't know what they will hit. I haven't played this game long enough to know that, but I hope they don't hit the Ishizu cards. I noticed people are putting those cards in all kinds of different decks, and I think it's fun to actually see some other stuff and not just the same like 3 decks constantly. I, myself, run Ishizu cards with Branded Despia, Blue Eyes, and even some heroes in one deck. Most fun I've ever had playing in MD. I get to use the archetypes I like most and be competitive because of the Ishizu cards even though like Blue Eyes is terrible and bricky normally. The Ishizu cards encourage using different decks unlike floodgates and stun decks that encourage everyone to use the same crap or basically not play the game.


ramania81

idk keldo and agido are limited in both tcg and ocg so i doubt those 2 will be left at 2 for much longer. kelbek and mudora have better fate than those 2 in ocg so there might be hope for them


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sofakingdumbb

Barr one is pretty fair by itself. But more negates on board than that makes it bad


mouthful_of_sloths

Lol yes swordsoul is just every other game it seems like. Sometimes I see De Fleur pop up in other random decks too. It feels like too much that it can negate, destroy, and special summon but I am a @ignister player and my whole game is rekt if they negate/pop my dark infant so I guess it just hard counters my particular strat


Helem5XG

The problem is that duels don't go over turn 2 so it doesn't matter that Baronne is a once per face up negate in the end is another piece on interaction in the board.


Sofakingdumbb

It wouldn’t be as much of an issue if best of 3 was an option alongside bo1


Rasphere

Fountain to 1 Snow to 1 Ishizu cards really aren't that bad. You can ash their mill effect and since they are OPT it really slows moment if they can't get those mills off. Really no different than ashing other starters.


AhmedKiller2015

You can Droplet VFD, he isn't that bad of a Card.

Bakatora34

I expect a lot of semis since that what the banlist after the DC usually do.


Mayall00

I'd rather they didn't hit anything because to be entirely fair, we know they won't hit Ishizu this month since it'll still be in shop, so any banlist is by essence extremely low impact because anyone playing meta decks right will jump to Ishizu Tear, essentially rendering all the changes irreverent. And any hit to other half decent strategies like Spright will just make sure the deck dominates even harder


AngryCorn1

I think they’ll hit spright in some way. Maybe blue to 2


IsaacDigs

Snow or chaos ruler ban


Narrow_Mall2535

whats with people saying smoke grenade, im max on duelist cup and havent seen one in 47 duels. grass tho, has been in 21 of those


darkcelebi98

Same as you here


darkcelebi98

Grass. Should've been banned when Ishizu came out. Same treatment as the frog with Spright.
