The List is Coming!

Previously on F&L List - The End of an Era

Six months ago, a new Forbidden & Limited Card List was announced. And players find that one pretty much useless, at least for TCG, because it didn't have any real impact on the top tier decks.


Konami decided to get rid off some stuff from the Plant tool box, by banishing Glow-Up Bulb and Spore.
They also decided to bannish the all-mighty Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier for his game-changing ability.
And made the right call in putting a stop to Trap Dustshoot, because let's face it, Trap Dushoot and Heavy Storm in the same format is too much.


Konami choosed to shut down completely the only deck played in OCG, by limiting the two tuner-searcher of the deck T.G. Agent : The Agent of Mystery - Earth and T.G. Striker.

Moreover, every deck won one extra Torrential Tribute, and some decks like Inzektor can now used one more Call of the Haunted.

Also, Lightsworns can play 2 Lumina, Lighsworn Summoner, Six Samurais can play 2 Shien's Smoke Signal and Gadgets can only use 2 Ultimate Offering.



Along with all that, Konami kind of trolled everyone by putting in the F&L List a TCG-exclusive card. : Reborn Tengu. Thing players never saw coming. The only time this happened before was back in  May 2008, with Allure of Darkness, and it was an emergency ban list.
Now we can't use the "not available in OCG yet"-excuse anymore.

But soon, a new list will come up, and the meta game as we know it will change for the next six months. So, will all the last changes remain?
Will Rescue Rabbit be limited?
Will Inzektors be eradicated?
Will the Forbidden List contain the first ever banned Xyz monster?
Will Hieratics get hit so it will not "dominate" the next format?
Will Black Luster Soldier -Envoy of the Begining's time be over?
Will Sangan be banned or will Tour Guide From the Underworld be limited?
Will Leviair the Sea Serpent be hit?
Will Future Fusion be member of the past?
Will Mind Control stay to promote Xyz?
Will Wind-Hunter be forbidden?
Will Royal Oppression return, since Mystical Space Typhoon is at three copies in every deck?
Will Red-Eyes Metal Darkness Dragon be the victim of his own power and Gustav Max?
Will Pot of Avarice be stoped from giving unfaire advantage?
Will players continue to keep track of what big monster is in their graveyard fearing an opponent's Monster Reborn?
Will some popular deck like Lightsworn Infernity, Six Samurai, Blackwing, Gladiator Beast, Zombie or Plants get some of their cards back in the game?
Will Heroes loose some of their superpowers?
Will Effect Veiler be another casualty in the war between Konami and synchro monsters?

So much questions and so much opinion on this matters.

So? What do you think about what's coming?
