Zoodiacs / Summon Gate series


Recommended Posts

 
I'm posting this here again because I'm still waiting for DAD's merciful verdict
[spoiler=DAD]

I actually love this thread but I wonder if this is the right section for it.
 
I won't move it right now because I'm out of time, but if it gets a lot of attention here it can stay.
 
Maybe blogs? But then I fear it would get lost there.
 
We'll see. It might even get pinned, you never know.

"Summon Gate" is a weekly series of videos where I select a banned or limited card(s) and play it at 3 (or less, depending on its previous stats) to test it against the current on-going meta. The goal of this series is to see if the selected card(s) is still ban-worthy AND for fan-servicing. In this video, we'll test Zoodiacs against the current meta, by playing 3 "Ratpier", 1 "Drident", & 1 "Broadbull".

When I start working on this video, it was with only 3 Ratpier as the "Summon Gate" guests. The results were so unsatisfying and bitter, I'm talking about a Tier 2 Deck that relies HEAVILY on outside engines to build a proper field. So this is why I decided to add both Drident and Boradbull at 1. There are few remarkable new combos:
- Pint-Sized Priest & a zoo to Summon Sorceress for more Field Presence
- Outroll of the Haunted Sea for Needlefiber shenanigans & Level 8 Synchro enabler (PSY-Framelord Omega)
So my final verdict:
ban_by_batmed-dc4v3md.png Zoodiac Drident:
- Drident MUST stay banned, it's an absurdly easily accessed destruction power, overpowering both "Artifact Moralltach" and "Kozmo Dark Destroyer".
lim_by_batmed-dc4v3gn.png Zoodiac Broadbull:
- Broadbull can be back at 1 since "Black Sheep Norden" shenanigans are no longer a thing. 
semi_by_batmed-dc4v4y3.png or FREE Zoodiac Ratpier:
- With Emeral gone in TCG, I could have stopped at 2 but I guess 3 would be fine since 1-card-combo are the meta's new black AND because Ash Blossom can keep it on check.
 

Thoughts?

Technically it’s my call and not Dad’s, so I’ll recommend that you post these in Banlist & Theory, as these tend to be more about theory work (and Banlist stuff) than general discussion.

Aight. I will keep it in mind in the next time. Also could you please move those 2 there?
