OCG July 2022 banlist

Post #1 by chaseer » Mon Jun 13, 2022 10:33 pm

This will be an interesting topic, as we will be talking about the one card that propelled Spellbooks to be on par with the unhinged Dragon Rulers!

Newly Forbidden
Toadally Awesome (Limited -> Banned) - I guess even this is causing issues since it is a free Bahamut Shark Summon.
Cryston Halqifibrax (Limited -> Banned) - The final curtains has fallen for this turbo Link Monster.
Vanity's Emptiness (Limited -> Banned) - TCG has long done that before, it only took time for OCG to eventually do the same.


Newly Limited
Eva (New) - Huh, Drytrons didn't have as much impact in OCG compared with the TCG. I guess they're following suit?
Branded Opening (Semi-Limited -> Limited) - Branded decks are becoming a thing in OCG
Spellbook of Judgment (Banned -> Limited) - Now THIS could be a very interesting pick for OCG to unban. It is the single card that made Spellbooks a totally overpowering deck with no-holds-barred free plusses each round. Lets see how it will fare in the present, especially since Imperial Order was recently re-banned.


Newly Semi-Limited
Genex Ally Birdman (Limited -> Semi Limited)
Floowandereeze and the Magnificent Map (New) - Starting to hit the Floowandereeze decks already?
Branded Fusion (New)


No longer on the list (All from Semi-Limited)
Orcrust Harp Horror
Harmonizing Magician
Lonefire Blossom
Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier
Raigeki
Divine Wind of Mist Valley
Night Assailant
Thunder Dragonroar
Wind-up Carrier Zenmaity
Beginning of the End
Swordsoul Emergence

Judgement sucks, you can Ash it and it only resolves on End Phase. It Summons Jowgen, but if you have a monster negate it means nothing to you
Buy Floowandereeze

Even without the negates, Jogwen is the only concern, just being an End Phase Barrier Statue, Spellbook of Judgement doesn't look for good cards in this day and age, good spellbook cards require you to play other spellbooks, so it isn't really worth it.

Will try reviewing custom cards if they look interesting.

Toadally Awesome was a hit to Splights which is the current top deck of the Meta. Halqifibrax finally gone and it was P.U.N.K. + pile decks that was the last straw for Konami. And the other hits to previous decks like Despia and Floowander were to prevent them from taking over once again since the other decks were hit.

I remember this infinite loop. I used to do it back on Dueling Network. It was officially called the Gallis the Star Beast OTK. https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Gallis_the_Star_Beast_OTK

However, it's too inconsistent nowadays to reliably pull off, especially when so many commonly-played hand traps nowadays exist that can stop the combo.

Well, Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon got errata'd to be hard once per turn now, so that loop no longer works either.
