targeting this exact aspect is good but what’s also funny is how the most skill oriented deck with the least deckbuilding variance was Kewl Tune and that’s the only one that got shot by that paris list

In short, I didn't think that format - or the FOLLOWING format - weren't SKILLFUL. You saw mostly the same names collecting at top tables. It was just that DURING that period, the "skill" that mattered a lot more was metagame evaluation and deckbuilding.

This is a very revealing thread. I'd like to take some time to talk about this PERSPECTIVE (before it becomes Pros vs. Tubers). Firstly, and most importantly - someone has to teach Jib how to post a thread instead of replying to the OP 25 times. My Twitter metafy is open.

I don’t wanna keep speaking on negative and promise this will be the last post of this nature BUT imo most have a hard time finding enjoyment in the current environment because they’re bad at ygo. Before you start typing your hate comments please listen to what I have to say 😭.

yeah pro players will literally play the worst formats imaginable and love them because they become a challenge. pro players have a mentality to face challenges which is required to get good at a game in the first place. everybody else wants to play so they can have fun

Which leads me to Thirdly: I think that "Pro Players" are probably the least important people to cater to on banlists. If you're skilled enough to find enjoyment in deckbuilding & metagame evaluation, to adapt, what do you care if the game's ass to play? xitter.cf/JibrielBraithw2/status…

(17/?) We as a community need to do better and be CLEAR about what we want. And no “better card design” isn’t an acceptable answer. you’re not gonna convince me ygo is dead when @TrifGaming @Ghost4LifeG4L and @JulienKehonYGO top every event. Pros adapt to any situation.

gonna play the both sides enlightened centrist devil’s advocate for a sec but yeah i do think content creators did some damage with how they exaggerate (e.g. this description of konami’s actions) but konami did put themselves in a corner by releasing a shit banlist at ycs paris
MBT@MBTYuGiOhOct 26
Did Konami kill YGO by releasing dozens of undertested cards into an environment they KNEW would precipitate FTKs & engine slop during a time of global financial crisis and tons of successful YGO alternatives? ...or did Joshua Schmidt kill it by pointing that out? Who can say?

justify what everybody said. Basically, i think before the banlist, the community was being overly annoying, but Konami just failed so badly at changing up the meta in a positive way with that banlist that people got JUSTIFIABLY angry

and i know the banning rotary being a bad thing is a sneak on my part considering people liked that ban but it genuinely fucked the format.

i’ll articulate the core problem of the game and it’s that Konami is consistently printing just a few cards that entirely warp how the game is played every 5 minutes. So many of the enablers that got banned were from THIS YEAR

(19/?) That is not to say there aren't issues in the current format & overarching issues in the game but most ppl can't articulate what exactly is wrong with the game & are referencing what they heard someone else say.

They’ll also very specifically print cards that do things that banned cards did but sometimes better. For example, Habakiri would never need to be banned if there wasn’t a new bridge to Haba every month

a huge mess of thoughts in this thread but i kinda agree with this point and some others. i do think the yugioh community online is a part of the problem as a lot of ppl who don’t even play the game have extremely strong opinions. Also that world stat ruined a lot. HOWEVER

(15/?) Then after the list comes out all important things are missing are all over twitter and YouTube saying things are missing and Konami is out of touch 😭. It’s CRAZY!!!!! They’re not outta touch they’re in touch with the wrong crowd

the fact the content mill continues to turn and people keep complaining is like the most obvious shit but at that point you need to test and play and showcase the best yugioh can offer. it’s gonna take time for the results to kick in for this banlist and people will

i think a lot about the Gaylor crowd. way more than any person should think about them. imagine if there was a whole group of drake fans that thought drake was closeted gay but really supported him for it and thought he was leaving clues. at least that would be understandable
