Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG October 2017 Banlist Released

In case you've missed it, Konami released the OCG banlist for this month which it took effect just last Saturday at locally official games in Robinsons Galleria. The list was released last September 14th, check out who got buried and took the ban hammer this time.

And the award for getting the ban hammer goes to:

FORBIDDEN:

MASTER PEACE, THE TRUE DRACOSLAYING KING
DRAGONIC DIAGRAM

In the previous banlist, these cards got limited but this time, it got buried for good and its goodbye True Draco.

LIMITED:

TRIBE-INFECTING VIRUS
ALEISTER THE INVOKER
DINOMIGHT KNIGHT, THE TRUE DRACOFIGHTER
SOULEATING OVIRAPTOR
BABYCERASAURUS
ABC-DDRAGON BUSTER
DENGLONG, FIRST OF THE YANG ZING
TERRAFORMING
SPELLBOK OF SECRETS
TRUE DRACO HERITAGE
TURE KINGS' RETURN
TRICKSTAR REINCARNATION

After so many years of being banned, Tribe-Infecting Virus is back but its limited to one copy, still its the return of the comeback XD. I noticed that 3 more True Draco cards just added to the list, but hey with the aforementioned cards above now banned, True Draco is literally dead so what's the use of putting these in the list. I'm surprised that Terraforming got added to this list where in the previous banlist it was limited to two, now its down to one, so sad for those getting field spell cards from deck to hand as this most important staple just got owned. Just noticed that 2 dinosaur cards were added in the list, so as ABC Dragon Buster, Denglong, and Trickstar trap card.

SEMI-LIMITED

SUMMONER MONK
WINDWITCH [WW] - ICE BELL
MAXX “C”
POT OF AVARICE
FUTURE FUSION
FOSSIL DIG

With 2 of the dinosaur cards just got limited, Fossil dig however just got added to this list, so literally the Dinosaur deck just got gravely hindered its gameplay. Nice to see that Pot of Avarice, Future Fusion and Summoner Monk are now back at 2 copies where it was previously limited to 1. The biggest surprise is Maxx "C" just got added to this list as this gets abusive where while the opponent special summons monster(s) on the field, the player who controls Maxx "C" can add cards from deck to hand by discarding this card from hand to the graveyard to activate its effect, so yeah I agree this gets semi-limited.

And now for the cards that were released from the shackles of the banlist.

NO LONGER LIMITED:

PERFORMPAL PENDULUM SORCERER
WITCH OF THE BLACK FOREST
SCARM, MALEBRANCHE OF THE BURNING ABYSS
RESCUE CAT
BURIAL FROM DIFFERENT DIMENSION
FIRE FORMATION - TENKI
PREPARATION OF RITES
SAQLIFICE
DOMAIN OF THE TRUE MONARCHS
WAVERING EYES
DRAGON RAVINE

Remember, the list is now in effect and applied not only to Japan but to other Asian countries who are using the OCG (Official Card Game) format, please don't forget it when playing in the official sanctioned tournaments.
