![]() People immediately realized that there was no reason not to run this, because you get to see those 3 cards before you have to discard ANYTHING. It always replaces itself, and you simply discard the 2 worst cards out of your current hand AND the next 3 cards in your deck. This card, as a rule, is inherently unfair. I mean, it's a +0 right? Well, there are 2 main reasons this got banned:ġ) Every reason pot of greed got banned. Graceful Charity is a much more subtle card than Pot of Greed as for why it was banned. And, as a rule, a must run card in every single deck ever that gives a stupidly unfair advantage for no good reason if your opponent doesn't also get theirs? Cards such as this tend to end up on the yugioh ban list as forbidden very quickly. As in, it was downright unfair for such a thing to happen, no matter the circumstance. Konami takes as many steps as they can to limit this deck type as possible, and it's a major reason pot of greed can never come back.ģ) People quickly realized that if you drew your Pot of Greed very early and your opponent did not, that was stupidly unfair. Exodia the forbidden one is the most classic example, but others have and still do exist. Then you use whatever combo you were going for to win the game. Basically, you try to draw your entire deck on the first turn if possible and in the first few turns if not possible. Even in self-mill decks, spell cards are still important and this one is just too **** good not to use.Ģ) Yugioh has decks known as draw ftk. Not a single deck in yugioh would leave this out. It was and IS banned for three major reasons:ġ) It's an inherent draw 1 that every deck would play. After the creation of the banlist, pot of greed very quickly went to 1 copy. It's an inherent +1 with no downside whatsoever. Because of this, pot of greed draws you two cards that you get to use IMMEDIATELY. Yugioh never has, and anything that even tries to put a limit on summoning conditions is either really really good or really really bad. But it's not that powerful in magic the gathering because magic the gathering has mana costs on most cards. Pot of Greed is basically a divination right? That's not that powerful in Magic the Gathering. ![]() ![]() Because of this, card advantage and ways to generate them are extremely powerful, and everytime I try to discuss these things on an MTG site this is basically THE place to start explaining the yugioh ban list. Yugioh is a game where, after you are following the basic rules, the only thing that can limit what you do per turn is the once per turn normal summoning limit and whatever your cards say they can or can't do. ![]()
