Sixth Sense
Return from the Different Dimension
Return I can understand. It was like Super Rejuv, deemed non-OP until sh_t happened.
But Sixth Sense . . WHY THE H_LL DID IT COME OFF!? My Lightsworns appreciate it, but it's waay too OP, should NOT have come off the list. Might as well have given us Pot of Greed at 3.
Blaster, Dragon Ruler of Infernos
Redox, Dragon Ruler of Boulders
Tempest, Dragon Ruler of Storms
Tidal, Dragon Ruler of Waterfalls
With Dragon Rulers at Semi-Limited they might see more play as support rather than their own archetype. Sure, at Limited they'd be forced to play as support, but they might also be okay at Semi-Limited. (This coming from someone who loathes Dragon Rulers)
Sacred Sword of Seven Stars
This was, with no doubt, purely made for Dragon Rulers. A card that lets them go +3, who are you trying to fool, Konami?
Only being able to be used Once per turn is pretty good balance. And with Dragon Rulers at Semi-Limited they'll have less targets for it. Not to mention that if they want it a third time they'd have to use a Magical Stone Excavation, which won't be as viable since the Dragon Rulers are at 2.
Judgment Dragon
Moving away from Dragon Rulers, I think that Judgment Dragon is way too powerful at 3. This coming from a Lightsworn player.
I cannot tell you how many games I have nuked with JD. Bottomless the first one? It's all good, there's no restrictions so I can SS another one right away. It's Honestly too strong at 3.
With new Lightsworns that are actually usable on their way, it'll be SOOO much easier to drop triple JD for game. Semi-Limited is fine, especially with Raiden, Minerva and Micheal making an appearance soon.
Grapha, Dragon Lord of the Dark World
If I'm hitting my precious Lightsworns, then I'm also hitting my hated Dark Worlds. Trade-In target? AND it can come back right away after Normal Summoning Boww? That's too dirty. (yes, I know that Trade-In doesn't trigger his effect, but it's still a dirty combo nontheless)
Especially with Dealings and Dragged Down at 3.
Macro CosmosSoul DrainDimensional FissureThunder King Rai-Oh
I have no idea why they hit TK, he was on vacation the whole Format! And Macro/Fissure straight to Limited was not fair whatsoever. Give the anti-Meta a break, it's not like they top that much anyway.
A Hero Lives
Ties in with Stratos at 1.
Burner, Dragon Ruler of Sparks
Reactan, Dragon Ruler of Pebbles
Lightning, Dragon Ruler of Drafts
Stream, Dragon Ruler of Droplets
Before anyone flips their sh_t. This is what should have been done to begin with. The Dragon Rulers can't attack that turn anyway. It seems okay that way. Even Dracossack and Big Eye can't attack that same turn, and with Return gone, no crazy OTKs.
Elemental HERO Stratos
HEROs are dead without Stratos, 'nuff said.
E - Emergency Call
HEROs don't need 4 Stratos.
EDITNo. 16 Shock Master
With Xyz Encore at 3 this card isn't so hot. However, it might be too much at 2.
is banned. That card was way too good, I loved using it, but at the same time I hated having it used against me! xD All the good backrow got hit anyway, no need for it, much more fair this way.
can stay, it's not the most balanced, but that also depends on the decks using it.
should stay banned. It's way too stronk. Steals way too many games.
Uhmm.. That's about it for now. Can't think of other archetypes that should be hit, but maybe that's because people are too busy with
back! The stupid re-rule on him is what made him way too OP.
