Time and time again, Yu-Gi-Oh has mesmerized me. The amount of times you get good deals on cards from friends and vendors, and the times you get ripped off by them. In a way, it's a lot like real life and if that's not deep, I don't know what is. Really, that's all this article really needs, but some things have been buzzing around the Yu-Gi-Oh world. The ban list is upon us soon, and its hard to believe it's already been almost 15 weeks since the the new/old banlist was unveiled, and since I started writing this blog. Its been a good run, but I think I might just update this blog every now and then, even after my class ends on the 15th week. But for now its Yu-Gi-Oh talking time.
Konami has been a bit excited about this month's banlist. Not only did they announced a release date for it, they also hinted at what might be in it. Anything from unbanning Crush Card Virus (a very OP and expensive card that basically kills every deck) to supporting zombies and Batterymen with getting some of their support back from the banlist. But really, I'm just hoping they unban SOMETHING, since nothing has been unbanned for over a year, and the unbanning is my personal favorite part of the banlist. I really thought it was shame they didn't unban anything in forever, but this time around we might all get a break! Also, the ban list will almost undoubtedly hit Dragon Rulers, and like Prophecy and Constellers as well, to name a few. It would be nice if my Inzektors could get a boost from the ban list as well, but I know just would they could do if they got their old power back.
Honestly, I haven't been on DN, in a while. I have too much other stuff to do, but I have been keeping up with some of the big Yu-Gi-Oh players on Youtube. Too much to my delight, they've informed me that there are several decks besides Dragon Rulers starting to top regional events. I gave this some thought and came up with some theories: Perhaps people are starting to become aware that Rulers will get the ax this coming ban list, or maybe they were just tired of using them. Either way, this is great news that pleases me. Yu-Gi-Oh is a card game that needs to be about variety, not a one single deck absolutely killing every other deck (cough Dragon Rulers). Dragons have had their time, and it's time for the ban list to put them down.
To close things off, I'm about one week short of getting the 15 articles I need for the class so I just might write one last of these later today or tommorow. I enjoy writing these, but at my own pace and when I feel like it. Lately, other hobbies have been interesting me a bit more than this game, but Yu-Gi-Oh will always be there, at least in my heart. Because I just got back into Pokemon, and boy is it back more than ever. Even so, I will write another article as soon as I can. For the sake of the class and my conscience.
