Forbidden & Limited List TCG May 2018

Effective 21st May 2018

Forbidden

Astrographer Sorcerer
Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King
Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis
Supreme King Dragon Starving Venom
Ancient Fairy Dragon
Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force
That Grass Looks Greener (Was Limited)


Limited

Dinomight Knight, the True Dracofighter (Was Forbidden)
Gem-Knight Master Diamond
Chain Strike (Was Semi-Limited)


Semi-Limited

Apoqliphort Towers (Was Limited)
Ring of Destruction (Was Limited)


No Longer on the List

Atlanteans Dragoons
Grandsoil the Elemental Lord
Ignis Heat, the True Dracowarrior
Mathematician
Neo-Spacian Grand Mole
Compulsory Evacuation Device


After several formats of surviving the banlist, we have finally witnessed the fall of the big kingmaker of the True Draco deck: Master Peace. It was immediately banned, with Dinomight moving back to Limited and Ignis moving out of the list. The Magician Pendulum deck has also been heavily hit, with the immediate ban of Astrographer Sorcerer.

Aside from the expected hits, there are several interesting card movements that warrants discussion:

- Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force: Albeit we do not see this card everyday, this one is somewhat responsible for the instant Number S0, the ultimate lol-nope Xyz Monster. It requires you to have 2 free zones that can hold the Extra Deck Monsters, but the Magician Pendullum Deck can somewhat fill the zone with the help of Electrumite. What you need is 2 Level 6 monsters and 2 Level 4 monsters. Overlay 2 Level 6 monsters for Beatrice, use her effect to dump RUM from the Deck, then overlay Gaia on top of her to add that RUM to hand. Overlay 2 Level 4 monsters for Utopia, then discard RUM to Xyz Summon S0.

- Gem-Knight Master Diamond: It is rumored that he is used as part of a Gem-Knight FTK. If you're curious: https://ygoprodeck.com/tcg-meta-snapsho ... pril-2018/

- Grandsoil the Elemental Lord: Its no OPT was the reason it got an immediate ban. With the new errata such that its Special Summon effect was given a hard OPT, there's no valid reason for it to stay there for more than 1 format.

So, the metagame post this banlist may consist mainly of Trickstars, Mekk Knights Invoked, and maybe Altergeists. That will be until the Brandish Sword cards be release on TCG.

Discuss away!
