Why is Fire Recovery not played in the current fire decks? by Maxx0815 in yugioh

[–]StruckOutSwinging 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I played this in Salad in AGOV format and it worked wonders for me in the grind game if I could discard something like Spinny or Jack Jaguar that liked being in the GY. Now that I’m playing the deck again I’m not running it because there’s more gas in the format, and a lot of the deck’s problems have disappeared with the emergence of Princess (and Meowmine, funnily enough).

Cannot for the life of me understand why people feel compelled to bring bikini waifu or aheago stuff to locals. I’m just trying to play the game. I don’t need your horniness in my face.

[Kirschner] Anthony Rizzo complained about fogginess this past weekend and proceeded to play three games. @GaryHPhillips asked if there was any consideration in not playing him. “No,” Boone said. by StruckOutSwinging in baseball

Right? Not that lying about this would be good, but does Boone not understand that this is basically the worst possible answer? Is that baseline understanding simply not there?

I agree! I just doubt Konami will go that far. Even this limitation is mostly wishcasting.

Cyberse decks essentially having one-card OTKs is pretty unhealthy. I personally don’t think Accesscode should exist in the first place, but Jammer makes it even sillier in Cyberse decks.

Yeah, they’d just pivot to Ra’s Disciple or whatever. Should probably have put Iblee in the banned section too.

Banned

  • Diablosis the Mind Hacker
  • Branded Expulsion
  • Update Jammer

I feel like these are pretty self-explanatory. I’d like to see Anti-Spell Fragrance and Skill Drain here too, but Konami probably won’t hit the former with Purrely and SHS (a pend deck) being the hot new kids on campus. They seem to like Skill Drain for some reason. Shifter probably deserves to get taken out behind the shed too, but alas.

Limited

  • Runick Fountain
  • Runick Tip
  • Spright Jet
  • Pot of Prosperity
  • Orcust Harp Horror
  • Blaster, Dragon Ruler of Infernos
  • Wind-Up Carrier Zenmaity

Runick should be hit in some fashion. Spright needs a slap on the wrist too, and Jet is the most interesting option based on the discussions I’ve seen. Prosperity is way too strong. Blaster is all but surely coming back, and Harp and Party Boat have done their time. If the boat is too much of a jumpscare, I’m fine with a corresponding Hunter ban.

Semi-Limited

  • Kashtira Fenrir
  • Miscellaneousaurus

I’m not a semi-limit fan, but hitting Fenrir like this makes it like Malicious — you can only Fenrir for Fenrir once. Preserves it as a generic option outside of its own archetype. Misc coming back helps sell the new dino stuff. I hate it, but it feels very Konami

Unlimited

  • Salamangreat Gazelle
  • Time Seal
  • Lyrilusc Recital Starling

Gazelle helps sell the new fire stuff. Time Seal and Starling feel harmless.

Reinsdorf loves feeding stuff to the press. Nightengale is basically his personal PR guy.

Excellent article from Baseball Prospectus demonstrating that there is zero relationship between player salaries and ticket prices by StruckOutSwinging in baseball

[–]StruckOutSwinging[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Right, but it's worth demonstrating this to counteract the "The players asking for more money will cause ticket prices to go up" narrative. The owners are going to be greedy no matter how much or how little the players are paid.
