Goats - (a stripped down Goat Format)


Recommended Posts

August 2005, pre-CRV, pre-Exarion.  This format is made to allow tier 2-3 decks to compete by nerfing Chaos/Goats rather than adding to the card pool.  This is not designed to be an improvement over Goats, but rather intended to be a mid-low tourney type of format.  In this format, Gravekeepers, Zombies, Warriors, Ratbox, Tomatobox, Machines, etc. should be stronger.  It seeks to reduce the power creep a bit to add viability to tech cards.

 

Forbidden:

  • Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning
  • Cold Wave
  • Cyber-Stein
  • Delinquent Duo
  • Last Turn
  • Pot of Greed
  • Ring of Destruction
  • Self-Destruct Button

Limited:

  • Armed Samurai - Ben Kei
  • Book of Taiyou
  • Brain Control
  • Dimension Fusion
  • Giant Trunade
  • Skill Drain
  • The Shallow Grave
  • Trap Dustshoot
  • Tsukuyomi

Semi-Limited:

  • Chaos Sorcerer
  • Exiled Force
  • Injection Fairy Lily
  • Lightning Vortex
  • Metamorphosis
  • Thousand-Eyes Restrict

Qualitative Comments: Hitting staple cards expands the deckbuilding pool.  Also, indirectly, staple cards have become still-powerful but not mandatory.  With 2/3 of the Trinity banned, Magician of Faith is optional.  Without Delinquent Duo, the player is not forced to run Sinister Serpent (or Tribe-Infecting Virus) as a corollary.  Limits such as Tsukuyomi are essentially for the same reason why cards like Breaker are limited in the first place: you only get one so use it wisely.  I hit Brain Control in the event of Monarchs becoming too strong in this format.  And lastly, Ring of Destruction (in conjunction with the ban on Duo) allows LP-cost cards such as My Body as a Shield and Autonomous Action Unit to see play.

Baneful stop posting shitty/alternative format banlist no one liked them on Pojo, DGZ, and I doubt many people here would like them. Hell did you even test this banlist? Plus a actual goat minus banlist exist way before this and calling it that is a insult to the actual list. Players are better of adapting their tier 2-3 rogue decklist to face Goat or Chaos rather then make those decks dead and if players want a more diverse format they can play a different format. First off no one would use Action Unit since Call of The Haunted and Premature Burial exist. This banlist would make Zoo and Monarch (No limiting Brain Control would not limit its usage and they would easily abuse Goat+meta very easily) tier 1 and it not much different meta wise besides Goat and Chaos being dead.

 

The official Goat Minus Banlist if people want to play Goat Mirror matches

 

Ban:

Chaos Sorcerer

Card Destruction

Delinquent Duo

Dimension Fusion

Giant Trunade

Wave-Motion Cannon

Last Turn

Trap Dustshoot

I disagree. Minervx's list is cool.

This is a horrible list (looks completely untested and hits the things good players like about goat format without punishing the things good players hate about it) and it's incredibly insulting that you stole the name goat(-) from us. If you're going to come up with your own format, please take 5 seconds and come up with your own name as well, instead of stealing it.
