Invasion of Chaos basically ruined Yugioh for about 18 months. Don't forget that.

Runner-up, for me, goes to Legacy of Darkness for introducing Yata-Garasu, which got banned a week after the set's release.
Yeah IOC was crazy.

I remember A bunch of us opening packs at locals when the set first came out, I had never seen people go so crazy for rares and commons like Mad Dog of Darkness and Chaos Sorcerer.

IIRC the special edition was insane to with Gemini Elf.

I place DREV over IOC precisely because IOC broke the game so hard was the only thing to play, you either got the new monsters or you'd lose, hard.

DREV gave useful cards to all decks in existence, cards that are used even today.
 
My pulls from the Circuit Breaker sneak peek.

Happy about the Akashic Magician even though she seems to be power crept by Security Dragon.

Weren't too many people compared to Code of the Duelist, but that seems to be because there's a regional going on.
 
Spirals? Really? I loved their look when they were first announced but they sucked at the time. I saw they got a LINK, it must be stupidly good.

In testing yesterday, because of it I could make turn 1 an extra link of Double Helix-Firewall-Ib-Firewall-Double Helix along with Sleeper equipped with Last Resort

So yeah

I think 90%+ Spyral decks are the norm in Japan right now

Time for an Emergency Banlist

To be fair the last ocg list was such a nuke to the meta that it left nothing alive that could realistically compete.

Can an ABC Dragon deck even function with the link format? It'd be even more fucked if terraforming got limited in TCG too.

ABCs are actually pretty decent rn and even get help from Destrudo from CIBR.

Been having fun trying to build decks and looking up decks. Decided to make a cheap Cardian deck. My Cyber Angels should be arriving this week so I'll have that.

Just bought two of the Machine structure deck and two Dino. Do I need a 3rd?

The new Aroma Link Monster looks damn good for plants.

I'm really liking the Link Vrains pack.

Probably not, the only thing I'd pick up is a 3rd Ultimate Conductor, and that's only if you plan on running the deck.

I remembered today, As a Costa Rican...

I´m still waiting for this anime card ):

http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Stone_Bola

Costa Rican Stone Ball
When an opponent's monster declares an attack: Target that monster; negate the attack, and if you do, that target cannot attack during your opponent's next Battle Phase.

Why do you hate us Konami? I want CR to be YGO canon
