when scale 10 for all monster
<< Anonymous
Anonymous Reply
Yeah, a Skill that makes the higher Scale becomes Scale 10 would be great, I'd use it with my SHS deck so that I can actually Pendulum Summon SHS Benkei. (Seriously, who the heck is the idiot at Konami that think a Scale 8 for SHS is a great idea when SHS Benkei, the OG ace of the deck, is Level 8???)

Haven't open the game yet, but looks like "Battle! Ancient Gear" simply has a wording clarification?

The effect remains exactly the same from what I'm reading here

Yeah, I was wondering the same. It doesn't look like a buff.

Don't take what you see on dlm that seriously, when sylvan got the new support I was so hyped went to dlm to check KoG lists and they didn't even made sense, 100% fake, some had like only 3 real starters in a 25 cards deck, others had over half the deck with high lvl monsters, in some there was no way to activate or use the skill.
Keeps happening with new decks, as if trying to sell them

I agree that some of the decks are 100% fake. I have tested many of those "win streak decks" just to realise some are pure craps. Dkayed should had made some videos exposing those fake decks and kicking the liers f the kog deck lists. Personally I remember a guy posting a 25 card exodia deck fgs. I tried to play the deck and all I achieved was a countless loosing streak.

Just reminder. Banlist usually happens when a bad box is about to come.
<< Anonymous
KONAMI Reply
Dear players,
The purpose of banlist is not to make a new bad box look good, but to force players to buy the new bad box, as their old decks will not be as strong as before.

~Thank you for playing Duel Link$!

First Arc V box is a good box that give us call of the haunted alike. And boost a bunch of old decks with boss monsters. Nothing to complain about.

1-Release a trash box
2-Give an op skill to any trash deck from that box
3-Sell it as meta deck
4-Nerf the skill, deck becomes garbage again
5-Repeat from step 1

Onomat dead
Cyberdragon dead
Thunderdragon dead (+ Methaphys)

Harpies nerfed lightly
Resonator nerfed
Gaia nerfed
Endless Trap Shiranui dead

Floodgate Limit 3 is pointless without more cards on Limit 3.

TD without wolf will become a slow heavy trap deck like Shiranui.

Cydras are dead. This skill is all about pushing whales to get 3 cydras.

Floodgate limitation means you have to choose between cosmic cyclone and endless traphole in this pendulum format.
<< Anonymous
Nickfer Reply
My bad. I meant Cosmic Cyclone. That card and Floodgate will be on the Limited 3 list, making it so you can only play 3 copies of either or both cards.

What even happened with the updated Galaxy Photon skill? If anything they made the skill more vague. You can’t have any number cards in the main deck.

Now you can run number monsters even if they are not light attribute

In short now they can use malevolent sin

Gotcha. Wish the wording was better still. I was afraid you could only play light number Xyz monsters in the extra deck to use the skill.
