No this is because the person in charge of the banlist in America right now is in fact the same man who was in charge of it when Upper Deck ran the game in America.

If you don't know why that's loving retarded

http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Konami_v._Upper_Deck

In fact, Upper Deck was convinced they could run the game better than Konami, that's what led to the TCG exclusive cards I believe

This is basically the reason why the TCG sucks so hard right now. However, for all the poo poo I give Tewart (and he deserves it), Upper Deck themselves has actually done a few noteworthy things. The biggest is forcing Konami to release the game to the rest of the world in the first place. At least according to Tewart, Konami was never planning on releasing Yu-Gi-Oh! outside of Japan until Upper Deck pushed and pleaded.

Then there's cards they pushed to bring to the TCG such as Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon and the fact that Konami was going to push Maji-Gire Panda without any edits until Upper Deck told them that domestic violence in the US is a pretty big deal.

OCG:


That all aside, that's more on UD as a whole and not Kevin Tewart who is still a massive shithead who thinks he knows the game better than Konami. When saying all this stuff on Pojo, he took credit for doing all of it despite there being other UD employees on the forum who were also involved.

The Dinomist field spell is pretty loving powerful and the amount of people I've dueled on YGOPro that's destroyed my backrow and not the field spell (because they didn't read it and didn't realize how insane it is) is pretty sad.

I fought a Burning Abyss player earlier who didn't understand why his monsters weren't getting their effects off when Rex stomped all over them. :allears:

Thinking about getting back into this and Dinomist seems fun as gently caress, what's your decklist?

I decided to embrace my inner Slur tonight and tried to win with Destiny Board. But, uh, there was a problem.

I put two "I" into the deck and forgot the "L". Oops.

IT DOESN'T MATTER THOUGH.



HE SUMMONED SLIFER AND RA AND THEN OVERLAID FOR NUMBER 81 AND THEN SURRENDERED WHEN HE REALIZED I HAD HIM TRAPPED.

Oh shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. It's already in YGO Pro?

What's your deck list?

All of the "Pot" cards are super, super, super ugly.
