New Tools for Anti-Meta Decks

[Kuan Hsing]

RGBT-JP078 [Graveyard of Super-Ancient Creatures]
Permanent Trap
While this card is face-up on the field, LV6 or higher Special Summoned monster cannot attack or activate their effects.


Can you say beating? Almost as good as Royal Oppression. Shuts down DAD, Judgment, any Synchro besides like Magical Android, and Dark Simorgh. "But Kuan!" you say. "Trap Eater broke Anti-Meta like Glass Joe!" RGBT has given us a tool to fight back.

RGBT-JP024 [Core-Chimera Drago]
WIND/Dragon/4/1900/1600
This card's controller sends [Core-Chimera's Steel Core] from the hand to the Graveyard or reveals a Dragon-type monster in their hand during each of their End Phases. If you don't do either, this card is destroyed. While this card is face-up on the field, LIGHT and DARK monster cannot be Special Summoned.

The Core-Chimera series is not as meta-changing as advertised, but this one is pretty exciting, even if its restriction is kind of bad. I mean, are there any other decent Dragons? And keeping a [Steel Core] is a pain, even if it does come with its own recursion system. Maybe three of this and two Vice Dragons would be enough... And at least Mirage Dragon can carry an Honest. Speaking of that combat spoiler, no, there's still nothing that tops it, and now there's a new one!

RGBT-JP012 [Black Feather - Karuuto of the Moonlight]
DARK/Bird/3/1400/1000
By sending this card from your hand to Graveyard during the damage step when a face-up [BF] monster you control battles, that monster gains 1400ATK until the End Phase of this turn.

Instead of printing an Honest variant for an archetype was good without it, can we instead get something that actually beats Honest? Blah blah Macro blah blah Banisher, I mean something like Wicked God Avatar only playable. Or unrestrict Mind Crush! That is an actual skill-intensive card and it was only restricted due to TrapCrush being in every deck. Your opponent makes a fishy attack, you MC naming Honest... dreamy.
PS Yes I'll play Karuuto. I does love me some Black Feathers.

Well with these new cards I think it's safe to say the meta is going to change from TeleDAD and Lightsworn.  

[Bakuram]

they make me smile inside...I await for Blackwings also... 3nodding  

[Synaku_Blade]

I have a feeling the Meta is going to change anyway once the new Banlist comes out.

I have a hunch that DAD and JD might get banned, or at least limited to one...I don't know why...call it wishful thinking I suppose.  

[Kuan Hsing]

Dark Armed is still the best deck because it makes the best Trap Eater, is faster than Lightsworn, and out-controls GB.

Anata wa watashi ga zutto mae ni "sayounara" to yutta hito wo omoidasaseru.

Tis why DAD will probably be banned.

Personally, I can't wait to see what the next set of meta decks will be...so I can totally pwn them with my water-control deck when the ice boundary cards come to the states.

You remind me of someone I said goodbye to a long time ago.

 

[Aya_Aki_kun]

Dad, JD, and ccv can't be banned. Why don't morons get the fact it's the deck that's broken not the actual card...

As for the meta, this will make dad and ls players think more but not slow them in any manner. As for blackwings....good by malicious hello black wings in teledad.  

[Bakuram]

well, it's like what Kain told me one day...if anything does happen to either DAD or JD, it'll follow suit of the other...
Example: if JD is banned or limited, DAD will follow...

Well i saw a list that hasn't been clarified atm *more than likely meaning it's a fake* I'm not gona say anything until I get proof but dear god these kiddies will get their wish...and realize what kind of hell they braught back.

Yeah, I like completely unfun, uninteractable wincons too. Oh wait, no, the opposite of that.
The meta is basically healthy as is, especially with BF on the way. The banlist will probably change everything and it probably won't be for the better.  

[Jevan R. H. Divinitive]

I want to see Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning back, it would work well with the current TeleDAD and Lightsworn mixes.

you realise how ******** broken he is with honest  

[Aya_Aki_kun]

JH hit it. From the current list I saw but I'm pretty sure it's a fake, disk is back at 2 monster reborn is banned dad is at 1, ccv banned, JD banned, bls back at 1. Nothing happened to anything else.

I just hope yall know BLS is a worse threat than dad and JD and all I can say is if this is a true list, LS and Monarchs are gona be winning regionals and sjc.  

[Jevan R. H. Divinitive]

I haven't seen any lists, I just think BLS-EotB is due a comeback. Also Honest works with any Light and doesn't make any of them any more broken than any other. Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning can stand up to the Synchro's and doesn't have the ability to clear the field as DAD and JD do so how is it broken?
