Funny thing: even without circular, mathmech would probably still be very playable, if you really want to kill that deck you have to hit superfactorial or laplacian.
Without circular it isn't super combo head It has to search superfact with alembertian so you're often using all your gas to get to superfact The main problem is under this slower format final sigma being able to easily kill and magma being basically a blowout might be a problem

I've said from day one that banlists should be constructed to upset the Yugioh community. Personally, if I was Mr. Konami, I'd ban one fan favourite, beloved card and/or unlimit one unfun card for every terrible take I read on Twitter, as a form of collective punishment for the community.
Are you sure you wanna go that route of unban one unfun Card for every terrible take in twitter? That would just leave only unfun card because of how much of a shitshow Twitter is
If a non-engine is good enough to be limited, it's good enough to be banned. There is no reason to limit things like skill drain to 1 other than "if you break through once you're good", and that's not a good reason because the issue is breaking through in the first place. It just feels so bad to get sacked.
The Synchro build is probably good now, too. They can also go into generic XYZ cards because they aren't hard Fusion locked anymore. Can be interesting.
As nuts as this list is, it does makes the case for a new format with a massive banlist. I mean, people have theorized about set rotation a lot, but what if Konami launched a format where the banlist is double the size of the original one? Ban floodgates, towers, generic combo cards, ftks and hit meta decks, called it extra limited and host tournaments on it, it could be fun.
Why did blackwings catch so much stray in this vid 😂😂 i don't get it, also why let one masquerade stay and no BWAD? It's basically the same card but worse most of the times
really wish we had a "cumulative inclusion" set of lists like duel links has. Being able to keep things like benten out of drytron lists and things like that sounds so helpful. I get that having a lot of ban lists can be confusing, but it's not like having a format of thousands of cards isn't already
We definitely need something like this. Maybe not all the cards you put here, but at least 80/90% of them, I really want to play the game in a way similar as it was in the 2014. Geargia-hat format best
Crystal Beasts are gonna be stupid with their field spell left untouched to supply a near-limitless string of spell/trap negates. IP into Goddess is also a common play for them and will be very difficult to deal with.
Psy-frame Omega is probably fine in a format where games last more than 3 turns on average. It's only relevant up until you have a monster. So many turns it would be a brick. You would have to play it in a deck without monsters as god intended.
Personally I would swap gravekeeper's trap and exchange of the spirit, since Vernusylph decks like to use it for the cycling effect and without exchange of the spirit it isn't a floodgate
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn, Joush unhinged. He sounds like he just finished the most important therapy session of his life. Still, I think this is a great idea. Do I completely agree with the list? of course not (R.I.P. precious Macro Cosmos and Light Darkness Dragon), but we're gonna have to tread some tears to make this work. Overall though I love it.

It just seems like Konami stopped cleaning out the toxic cards one day and they were like we will get to it one day and then many years later they realize it’s too overwhelming to weed them out.
I'll miss the Tenyi Monk but I have to admit that a one card enabler for Tenyi monsters makes them too splashable. Would Tenyi be too strong if there was a non-Effect Wyrm Link-2?
@@ttkrystal8329 As a deck it would be fine, but YGO doesn't forbid cards only for certain decks: such limitations are applied for all decks equally.

Is the Synchro access in addition to the non-Effect monster really that important?
@@xCorvus7x every deck can't use Tenyi because they wyrm lock you but ok. You don't understand. Nobody can play Tenyi AT ALL without monk. Just ban an engine ONLY used in Swordsoul? It's just a way to kill Swordsoul because this dick doesn't like the deck.
They killed Armor Master and Assault Dragon 😢 Blackwing’s archetypal win condition. They are both very beatable still they could be like 1 so no one can double up… but please I wanna play my blackwings 😢
I feel like one Empen and no Apex Avian could put Floo into a playable space without being an overly oppressive floodgate. Robina into Eglen without Empen just ends on Apex Avian, boring and unfun. Adding 1 Empen means you change the gameplan from Apex Avian into lose into Raiza control. Empen is so important for the deck to work at all, and looping Raiza is a much more interesting and dynamic gameplan than sitting on a 1-2 Apex all game. I’ve been playing Floo in master duel and the deck is a lot of fun when you don’t play a trap-heavy floodgate deck, I think it’s a little under appreciated because it’s easy to build it very low to the ground floodgate style. Substitute hand traps, utility spells, and search/draw spells and it’s honestly a fun and engaging deck!
Sounds like Endymion or even Generaider with the new Vala to me :o sadly I can't really participate. Wishing for a master duel version of this, where maxx would be taken out as consideration (since it isn't banned in MD).
Was watching on my phone doing dishes and right after Josh mentioned Maxx "C" i got an add saying: "Imagine what would be possible with some old spice." You CANNOT make this one up, i swear i am writing this laying on the floor😂😂😂
..yeah, im glad this list would never happen. it kills or sigificantly hits every last deck ive even thought of playing that could be on a recent banlist, while providing even less options to handle the decks im up against, and I don't think the hits offered to the combo decks matter as much. we already saw when swordsoul couldn't make their level 8- they have multiples to reach for that aren't on this list. funny hit to me is probably DNA surgery. also, what floodgates are Paleo's even running other than Anti-spell?
You do realise that at the tournament nobody is going to make a cool deck, but everyone is trying to be the most degenerate as possible with this banlist
That's the point People are gonna find the degenerate shit and then we're gonna ban that crap Eventually there won't be more degeneracy left I don't care how long it takes but it will happen
Is that ban list Adamancipator to glory? Haven't spotted Dragite on the list (might have missed him tho). But if he's not banned then turboing out Dragite with a water in grave for the Spell/Trap negate and Koaki Meiru Guardian for a monster negate should be GG against most decks with such a decreased power level.
This is what no banlist does to a mofo. Jk, on a serious note, I really love this type of content. Game design is a fascinating topic that I enjoy a lot.
I would hate this list for only one reason. It actually kills earth machine due to the Goliath ban. I would kinda hate losing Regulus since my favorite interaction in the game would be gone, but 0 Goliath makes my favorite deck unplayable. Goliath doesn't even do much other than go into the graveyard and let us revive the Infinitrack XYZ monsters. If we got Goliath back, I would be 100% down to play this list
After he made this list I went through it and actually looked at it and there are so many casual decks that I would honestly enjoy playing under this type of custom banlist🔥🔥🔥
@@GranmargYGO ok sure Spright he thought out, but telling Swordsoul players just to "make another 8" instead of Chixao is insane when he's literally half the deck.
@@ttkrystal8329 For what it's worth I do agree that the weakest part of this list is the archetype hits. Think they could have had quite a bit more consideration
@@Henry-bg4oe this was just one of the examples where he kills whole archetypes cuz he banned a strong card that can be limited instead cuz he doesnt know how the deck works
@@Henry-bg4oe I was just scanning the list for a potential Kali Yuga ban instead of the PK RUM (that breaks xyz card design just like Expulsion does with Puppet etc) so i can completely understand what they said about Gilgamesh. I dare say they wouldn't be tier 1 even with that list because the deck is too fair and Machinex checks it really well at 1.
I fail to see how Labrynth and Kashtira aren't miles ahead of the rest under this. Labyrnth has Set-Up to recycle the Big Welcome and set traps from deck, and 3 Welcome will find you Lady regardless. At such a lower power level Fenrir and Unicorn win games by themselves.

..yeah, im glad this list would never happen. it kills or sigificantly hits every last deck ive even thought of playing that could be on a recent banlist, while providing even less options to handle the decks im up against, and I don't think the hits offered to the combo decks matter as much. we already saw when swordsoul couldn't make their level 8- they have multiples to reach for that aren't on this list.
funny hit to me is probably DNA surgery. also, what floodgates are Paleo's even running other than Anti-spell?
Branded is still playable in this format. You just need a way to search Albaz and run more fusion spells to hard way into combo. 😛
That sounds miserable ngl
@@milesandrews6711 whole list is miserable because that's the goal .
MBT's ban list tourney proves it's not even that bad
@@ttkrystal8329 MBT's tourney was about unbanning broken cards
This is the opposite
@@milesandrews6711 I know that. I'm saying that MBT's proves this is a moot point. This man murdered multiple decks in this list.
This is fantastic 😂😂
You do realise that at the tournament nobody is going to make a cool deck, but everyone is trying to be the most degenerate as possible with this banlist
This, the only difference is gonna be longer toxicity.
That's the point
People are gonna find the degenerate shit and then we're gonna ban that crap
Eventually there won't be more degeneracy left
I don't care how long it takes but it will happen
You can always count on Yugioh players to find what needs to be on the next revision of the list.
This looks perfectly balanced as all things should be
Is that ban list Adamancipator to glory? Haven't spotted Dragite on the list (might have missed him tho). But if he's not banned then turboing out Dragite with a water in grave for the Spell/Trap negate and Koaki Meiru Guardian for a monster negate should be GG against most decks with such a decreased power level.
I will play through that like cake in mathmech
I will actually just kill you with final sigma or outgrind you with magma and superfact
Ursarctic is finally playable
A great player once said, "just draw the out".
Swords of revealing light & gravity bind
This is what no banlist does to a mofo.
Jk, on a serious note, I really love this type of content. Game design is a fascinating topic that I enjoy a lot.
And after all that protos still survived 😂
My Utopia deck uses a floodgate that is missing from this list: *Number C65, King Overfiend.*
If he put in all this effort and didn’t play a tournament with this list it was a waste
I would hate this list for only one reason. It actually kills earth machine due to the Goliath ban. I would kinda hate losing Regulus since my favorite interaction in the game would be gone, but 0 Goliath makes my favorite deck unplayable. Goliath doesn't even do much other than go into the graveyard and let us revive the Infinitrack XYZ monsters. If we got Goliath back, I would be 100% down to play this list
After he made this list I went through it and actually looked at it and there are so many casual decks that I would honestly enjoy playing under this type of custom banlist🔥🔥🔥
hitting scareclaw does make me cry, he even ban light-heart
Blue eyes max literally he is so happy behind u
josh: "what does infernity do in this enviroment?"
chat: "set 3 barriers"
josh: "ok, you got me"
Blue at 1 is crazy with some of the stuff he banned. Like in what world is lulu more problematic than Blue?
Sprind is also banned and two other Spright cards are limited - Josh went about touching the decks differently based on how he thought made sense
@@GranmargYGO no he didn't. He didn't put that much thought into it. Just banning "unfun" cards.
@@ttkrystal8329 well given that I was watching the stream and he thought about how to hit Spright, I can say yes he did
@@GranmargYGO ok sure Spright he thought out, but telling Swordsoul players just to "make another 8" instead of Chixao is insane when he's literally half the deck.
@@ttkrystal8329 For what it's worth I do agree that the weakest part of this list is the archetype hits. Think they could have had quite a bit more consideration
josh be like: vianilla beatdown lets gooooo!!!
banning Gilgamesh just kills the ddd deck, at 1 he would be fine since almost every combos requires 2 Gilgamesh some even 3
There is no way out of everything in this video, this is what you care about
@@Henry-bg4oe this was just one of the examples where he kills whole archetypes cuz he banned a strong card that can be limited instead cuz he doesnt know how the deck works
@@Henry-bg4oe I was just scanning the list for a potential Kali Yuga ban instead of the PK RUM (that breaks xyz card design just like Expulsion does with Puppet etc) so i can completely understand what they said about Gilgamesh. I dare say they wouldn't be tier 1 even with that list because the deck is too fair and Machinex checks it really well at 1.
Banning appliacers links just because they are link ones is hilarious
EDIT: ok he later removed them from the list lol
Link 1 = maj
is the custom banlist only accessible through the Discord? 👀
I've always thought the worst thing about combo decks was the extenders in the extra deck.
Like the one guy said, I’d go play MTG if this happened 😂
Hell this list will make it feel like Magic.
Im crying over this banlist atm
3:59 he doesnt hesitate for even a second
Thinking about it, Tellarknight might be totally busted now
I fail to see how Labrynth and Kashtira aren't miles ahead of the rest under this. Labyrnth has Set-Up to recycle the Big Welcome and set traps from deck, and 3 Welcome will find you Lady regardless.
At such a lower power level Fenrir and Unicorn win games by themselves.
Set-up is a bad card and actually see 0 play in any Lab deck. 3 Welcome is still okay because Big Welcome is at 1.
@@matheusmmariz Setup is an incredible card in a control/slow format because it recycles 2 used Big Welcomes for anything in the deck.
Both Kashtira and Labrynth rely on floodgates in their current form. Even if they survive they won't be the same.
I can assure you that you probably wont be winning games with fenrir and unicorn beats
Especially not when unicorn is at 1 in this format
I love watching the other Yugi Tubers, but they definitely are more on the entertainment side. I'd like to see more of your take on this Mr World Champ 😂
darklord would finally be meta
Someone has to break mathmech in this format just to spite josh
He still hasnt banned all the cyberse gas cards like splash mage, transcode and crystal heart
And he also hasnt banned the enboard pieces like invalid dolmen, firewall dragon and darkfluid
Us cyberse players can definitely break this format guys
would love to see you run a tournament with this banlist
witnessing the birth of a new format
Banning Archfiend would require me to choose violence
After watching this. You can't convince me yugioh is about interaction
Idk if I’m blind but prank kids looks nice here
I'd watch the hell out of this banlist tournament just to see how much degenerate shit happens
07:26 the Fly Edit made my Day ^^
Josh be like: If a card sees play or every has seen play, I'll ban it LMAO
Was there ever a tournament played with this list?
If this is the Banksy banlist, I'm still playing pure Rikka (I don't really summon Jasmine that often, so that hit doesn't affect me).
Bro didn't hit Traptrix at all, but removed backrow hate. Ooohhh it's gonna be fun.
Sera is ded bruh
Bruh I'm playing true draco with my rocky boy iwato. Floodgates other than that rock aren't needed pop 2 and insane resource looping.
Now you need also to unbann some carts.
And create your own banlist
guys, i want this format, it seems to understand the issue with modern Yu Gi Oh more than kuchen format
i mean: there are some cards i don't agree that they're in the banlist, fine, but the idea is correct
