Mechanics I Want/Don't Want to See in Rush Duels

With the Fusion Era just about in full swing, Rush Duels has made it clear that it has no problem bringing back old mechanics. Here's a list of mechanics I would love to see in Rush Duels.

1. Flip Monsters! This is the one I want most. Right now, the only real way to interact with your opponent is traps with specific conditions like Trap Hole or Mirror Force. Flip Monsters would be a great way to incorporate more interactivity into the game! I wanna see Man-Eater Bug as a Legend! Our deadly insect savior deserves this prestigious honor!

2. Synchros/XYZs: If these are incorporated, there would have to be some balance changes. If I would suggest, make Synchros require specific tuners like Junk Synchron/Junk Warrior. With XYZs, make the material requirements type/attribute specific. In my opinion, generic Synchros/XYZs would not be healthy for Rush Duels.

3. Quick Plays: Quick plays should be battle phase specific. Effects like Rush Recklessly would be reasonable.

4. Pendulums/Links: just kidding. Absolutely not. Not now. Not ever. End of story.

Are pendulums even that good if they take up 2 of 3 S/T zones in a format with unlimited Normal Summons?

We'll have to see on the first part when Arc V drops later this month on Duel Links.
