Cyber Angels look ugly and stupid

Ghostrick meta when?

SAY GOODBYE TO CYBER ANGEL

CA support whe, Konami? they are tier 2 now and have only be good during one (1) season

>BEWD screwed by CV limit
FUCKING NIGGER DRAGONS RUINING EVERYTHING

...

...

>Joey then jumps into the ocean to try and rescue Red-Eyes Spirit and Vigilance

I am still going to get to KoG with them in November. So they've been good for at least two seasons.

I'm so glad Konami is finally dealing with the CANCER and hitting RED-EYES BALANCE and CYBER ANGELS so we can actually get a SKILLED meta like DESTINY DRAW BURN and EXTRA EXTRA MILL. Praise Konami for simultaneously releasing cards like WALL OF DISRUPTION and DRAINING SHIELD to further cement SKILL in the meta, not CANCER.

kek

Both those decks get cucked by Forbidden Chalice you dingus

>tfw you need to repay your nip friend for sending a vagabond challenge but you don't know which name to select in your friend's list because all moonrunes look the same to you

pls buy new minibox guys, it has new staples.

t. Konami.

Chalice, Painful Decision and the new battle trap are worth it

Chalice won't come close to neutralizing them.

Konami will fear the samurai

Chalice being available means that swinging into a massivemorphed monster with Amazoness Swordswoman has the gigantic risk of the Swordswoman getting Chaliced and the burn player OTKing himself

shut up japanese faggot

>lets fuck all the f2p decks :^)

What is this destiny draw burn deck?

>leveling Mokuba for Ancient Rules
Why am I doing this again?

>konami
>release cyber angels
>tournament soon!
>everyone farms it
>they ban it just before event

If there was ever a clear sign you mustn't give money to these fuckers, it's this

Because high level Normal monsters like BEWD can be abused with Champion's Vig- oh right.

BECAUSE NOT A SINGLE CARD CAN STAND TO HIS POWER

youtube.com/watch?v=xOJr1dTPSis

H-house no longer real big.

Seriously Vigilance is required to play a slow deck like BEWD. They nerf Red-Eyes balance because they're not making much money from it and just kill whities with it.

>mfw I called the MAR banning and no one here believed me even to the point people were spouting Dakini needed to be outright banned
HAHAAHAAHAH FAGGOTS
I'm always right I've played this game for far too long not to know the pattern of Konami, Benten will be next if the deck shows too much power just watch.

You could make a CA deck as a F2P person though. They fucked it because everyone was reaching KoG too easy with it. I mean just check the October KoG list on gamea.co, more than half of the decks are CA.

So? I'm back to getting wrecked by toons and red eyes. Just because I'm dishing it out for once they ban it?

What is this game? A vehicle for whales to waste my time by paying konami fucktons of cash?

Yeah well Konami can get fucked. I'm playing simulators from now on.

So long faggot
nobody cares about your whining you wanna win then pay to win baby

You guys don't really know about Konami huh. Also

>spending real money for digital cards

Please don't be that stupid. At least buy real cards and build your full 20 dollars petdeck.

>people actually defend this

>he thinks a business shouldn't profit and let the poor people have all the power

>Reddit fucks asking for refunds

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA YOH FUCKING IDIOTS, EAT SHIT

They don't need to refund you shit. Your fault for going for the meta crap instead of whatever you actually liked. Also the playerbase is entitled as fuck, holy shit.

I was there for that, what cards will be on the next banlist you think?

>wow guys we're making a little less money than before
>let's destroy all fun non-paying players are having so everyone HAS to pay to even have a shot at winning even once in PvP

Enjoy your scam.

I made a post on reddit about it I also called CV being banned and being necessary for it to be banned due to the lack of interaction between players.

>charge back on my credit card

True, they don't really have to do anything, my bank does all the work. Get fucked Konami. You can keep my account too.

If CA wasn't hit of course Konami was going to lose money you whiny ass gen Z faggot, the deck was so strong and Tier 0 that even the p2w people were using it.
Besides it's not even hit hard enough imo Benten still needs to go I promise the deck is still viable, Red eyes balance however is not and that shit needed to go

Source?

What are you even into? Most people here dont even waste money in this game
this
Gamea is a shit show, but yeah, btw you can actually make any deck as a f2p
CA were overcentralizing the game, thats the reason for the hit
Since when you use money to farm? what are even saying
They havent even be banned yet, they realised than they are broken after just two-three weeks and tell just about the future ban to not waste time on them, is not like the tour is tomorrow, and is normal to update a banlist before a important tournament
If you dont know how to use your f2p gems is not their fault, im not using money in this game and even then i have never be below legend
That is really stupid, even for reddit, you cannot get the banned cards with money anyway, we say to not waste gems in bird and ugly man because they can be powercreped easly and is only a season thing.
Maybe free sr tickets or something

>make this fuss about a limit on a digital card game

The only way you can be mad at this is if you ACTUALLY brought digital cards with real money.

Which it means you're pretty damn stupid son.

>mfw when I just woke up and saw all these changes

GET FUCKED CA FAGS

>see new bans
>get upset
>realize I dont use any of the cards in my ranked decks


still a little annoyed that they fucked up balance so the balance dragon fusion deck is worthless now. Wasted all those gems for nothing

lol none of the cards banned are cards you can get with money

>People are actually, unironically mad their deck gets fucked by a banlist update
Welcome to Yugioh
You should've recognized the incoming skullfucking when the meta shifted so that nearly every deck had to go back to running three copies of Enemy Controller to have a chance to compete

I have good news for CA players in pic related.

Yeah sure is my own fault they release a fucking strong deck with the MAJOR GX UPDATE and hype it up with their little tournament, only to ban it just before the event. BUT RED EYES OH NO CAN'T NERF THAT TOO MUCH THE WHALES WOULD TAKE THEIR MONEY ELSEWHERE

Lesson learned.

>anons saying balance should be nerfed/deleted a few days ago
>anons saying creator should be updated like yesterday
What does it mean?

Most of the kids that play duel links are too young or not involved in the TCG to understand what a banlist does or even is. They have no idea the hell of losing an entire deck you spent 500+ on and won championships with.
Reddit is an audience of gen z 18 year old cucks and some late millenials that understand a bit more, they will learn or get off the game and leave the real players to dominate.

/pol/ is always right

>All these CA fags delicious tears

>they ban my CA
>bust out my good old TBD Toons deck

Are people actually mad about the ca nerf? It needed to be done, seriously. the MCS proved how dominating it was

Yeah, is your fault, they didnt even hype CA at all, they didnt even thal about them until now, and they did nerf red-eyes, they just dont touch the box cards because they know than people can use real money in them
You shouldnt use money in mobile games in the first place, and everyone here was already saying to not waste gems in the boxes for sonic bird and senju because they will be powercreeped or nerfed, is all your fault

No it proved that Red Eyes is superior.

>Red-Eyes now outdated
>Cyber Angels now way overrated
Hope you guys are ready to activate those dinos, the new t0.

this
if you can't name 5 top metas from the TCG that were destroyed by banlists you don't deserve to be on this game

>if you can't name 5 top metas from the TCG that were destroyed by banlists you don't deserve to be on this game

Kaito's lists, and most other REZ lists, were tailored to deal with CA specifically so that user is still right.

Aside from the fact that most of the decks were built to counter CA, sure lmao

So when does the new box drop? I want muh gems

>ZOODIACS
>DRACOS
>SHADDOLLS (I'LL NEVER FORGET THIS KONAMI YOU FUCKERS)
>DRAGON RULERS
>TELEDAD (FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU)

Its seems than some retarded anons are mad because they wasted money and gems in an old box than everyone know is shit

7.5-10.5h

>cards/decks whales paid money for are untouchable
>every out to the top paid decks will end up banned/limited
>they even changed fucking balance because one f2p friendly red eyes deck depended on it to be good

Wait remind me what is the point of playing this game as f2p again? Being cannon fodder for paying customers? Waiting out for event gems to finally get the good cards in a smart way... Only for new paid boxes to power creep them?

This "maintenace" was overkill. CAs were bad but they didn't just balance it, they completely destroyed the deck. Is this gonna be the fate of every single good f2p shit?

>TCG unbans everything
what happens then?

>early thread
kys retard

Dude im a f2p KoG player and i love this update, is not their fault if you dont know how to make use gems
You can make any deck as a f2p player, just dont be retarded and dont buy wasted gems in shit than is going to be hit way to soon just because is hot for like, two weeks

degenerate FTKs and lockout straegies everywhere

>they even changed fucking balance because one f2p friendly red eyes deck depended on it to be good
Many f2p decks, for the rest of the game, will rely on balance. Balance means that you can sometimes skip out on certain cards/searchers while remaining consistent. Every change they made was simply to make more money, it's disappointing. At least throw other changes in there to make it less blatant.

Nigger, HOW was ca "f2p friendly"? You needed 3 senju and at least 1 bird.

I don't know why Nerf CA it's so easy to beat them

Balance nerf was needed as other similar skills (heavy starter and my monster cards) only give improved chance to have good starting hand. With new cards coming balance will be more powerful. I guess they will nerf destiny draw (your deck will shuffle after you dd) and beatdown (only 200 extra attack per level 5) next.

why not just remove all skills?

Beatdown should have been nerfed when Naturia came up. This destiny draw need is fair, but it was stupid to Nerf balance

With enough time you can easily get them.

>make a deck
>komami doesn't ban it
>"good kog player"
>make a deck
>konami bans it
>"lol you shouldn't have bought it cuck"

You need to rethink things

True.

are people genuinely surprised they nerfed CA? It was literally ruining the game on a major scale

Is there anything more delicious than poorfag tears? I mean, I'm fully torqued over here

I hope not. One reason I'm playing this game is for skills. They better not become faggots and just nerf all skills so there's little difference between them. I want to see them buff other skills instead.

Red eyes and toons have been ruining the game for a long time.

>b-but they have outs

So does CAs. The answer to them is good backrow

Literally everybody was playing CA, even in KoG where people usually just chill and play fun decks everybody was playing CA. It was pure cancer to the game

sauce

Hello Konami. I'll buy when you make the prices a less obvious scam.

>not spending money on a mobile skinner's box simulator means you're poor

It means I'm not stupid

Man I hate when sneezes won't come out like that

I did think man, unlike you, i did use REBalance to get KoG this season, but i dont care much about losing it, i can still use the other cards for other decks (and the once limited are farmeable cards than i didnt care much about, i have like 6 CV), instead of wasting in a ritual deck when everyone know than ritual are the first once in get powercreeped in YGO since years ago
People is more retarded today it seems
>he wasted money in a mobile game
what a slut

Because they are what make this game better than the other yugiohs

>He thinks TBD or REZ were EVER as bad as CA

>been playing Hazy even before it was fixed
>people claim it's t1 now
>CA and RE get hit
Does that mean I'm now a faggot with a top tier deck? This isn't fair.

Yes, now proceed to be called faggot, we all wish for your mother to be killed and raped

its all exodia bb

The new balance change makes no fucking sense. "You have a CHANCE to have your hand represent your deck?" The fuck?

That's like if they nerfed HHG by saying "Start the duel with HHG, but this skill fails 50% of the time". That's not a nerf, it literally kills the skill.

The change is just Konami saying "if you're not dropping hundreds of dollars per month on the game you shouldn't expect to be competitive".

That's literally what it is.

>Real quick,

Prismatic Red Eyes or Prismatic Apophis?

I have enough for both, also have a prismatic Knight of the Heavy flame and run a REZD (or cyber meme) deck for anything serious. Could keep a spare mixed Red Eyes deck, but I've also desperately wanted to run a Tiki Soul deck since it dropped. Tiki seems like it'd be a meme deck on its best day though, and I can't see what a good mechanic for it would be, mayyyyybe stall/mill, burn?

Reason I have the glossy originals are lucky gets from Odion and Joey. Idk if that factors in.

How the fuck does a skill being nerfed is related to money? can you read? are you retarded?

>weakens several free decks
>directly destroys 1 f2p friendly deck
>right before the tournament
>"what does it have to do with money?"

Are you kidding me?

Anyone know what Bonz's level 40 Duelist Kingdom deck is like?
