im not surprised psychics dominated the cup, cuz the skill more or less takes away the whole thing Rush duel has where you arent allowed to search from the deck, but only mill and excavate from it so with this psychic skill that allows you to search for 3 very specific cards (and dump the other ones) at any point of the duel , it basically turned this into a modern TCG combo deck
Perhaps the most curious thing is that Psychic Deck was intended that way: to be a combo Deck in the early years of Rush Duels. However, Psychic Deck was never able to shine on its own in the real Rush Duels format: until now, it has only been a Rogue Deck or a Deck that some would like to be Playable. The Deck has many combo and extension pieces (I mean, they have three copies of Rominpick: one of the most powerful Monsters ever created in Rush Duels) However, many Decks exploited one of its most obvious weaknesses: its Monsters are quite weak and the Deck is easy to overwhelm. This was enough for Dragoncaster Deck to be Tier 0 for over a Year and one of the reasons why Psychic Deck couldn't thrive: Dragias ate that Deck alive. That's why I find it funny that Psychic Deck is a constant threat in Rush's Duel Links since the version of the Deck we play is a super nerfed version of it: a full powered version would make the Deck easily dominate Rush's Duel Links due to its power level. And let's say that now we can say that the Skills are not the problem of why the Deck is strong (Romin already had quite strong/broken Skills that were not successful in Rush's Duel Links), it's the other cards in the Deck: Psychic just needs its best pieces to come to Duel Links to be playable and strong.
I really wish this skill had at least one cost like for example the Heroes Skill that removes a card from the field to search for the fusion or the Cydra that exchanges a card from the hand for another but without throwing it into the graveyard.
it's what they've been doing since it came out and it pisses me off. The only reason I'm tolerating playing duelings again is to experience some form of english rush duel, but they're just turning it into a worse master duel format with these mandatory skills and then they lie to us and say "oh we're using this to gauge interest in rush" but they have 0 interest in taking any risks outside of DM nostalgia
@caswellweird they have literally never said Rush DL's function is to gauge interest. Konami and the DL devs never communicate with fans, let alone let them know the reason behind their decisions.

About the Dragon's cards leaks in Rush Duels, there is still that Blue-Eyes Structure that they have been promoting since the arrival of GO RUSH's World, especially Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon. About Yuamu's Deck, unless that Deck or Dragon in general gets its strongest/most modern cards, I don't see it taking off much since it is still vulnerable to many things. It seems that it will be a Small Box focused on Dragon since we only have one leaked Skill. If Dragon wants to stand out, getting Double Twin Dragon would be a good first step. PS: If I had to make a Tier List with the data obtained from GRF, I think it would be the following: Tier 1: Psychic Fusion, DARK Galaxy. Tier 2: Metarion. Tier 3: LIGHT Galaxy, Rush's Cyber Dragon, Dragon Fusion. Rogue: The rest of the Decks.
As a DM player in both speed and rush the one thing I really want them to do here for the rush banlist is to unban thousand knives and dark sword magician, I’ve tried many versions of the deck but secret order is by far the best one and dsm is a good other boss monster for the deck while knives are one of the few ways they have to deal with high attack monsters along with secret order. Putting knives to three would just compromise the deck even further since that removes another secret order if you still want to run dsm.
Personally, I enjoyed playing Wyrms in the 2nd stage. And I'm glad the deck didn't warrant any reason to get hit either. Feels like I could have reached pretty far if I had a lot more free time on my hands.
My take on the ban list For Psychics, probably a Limit on Can:D and/or Performer. Semi Jam:P Start. For Voidvelg, Limit 3 Gobule. For Cyber Dragon, Semi Crafter and Golem. Generic’s, Semi Talismanic, Universal, and Buffered
I agree with everything you said Psychics and Metarion need to go. The very first day you could encounter a great variaty of decks, then Dark Galaxy slowly started taking over with a few Metarion here and there but suddenly gears shifted and now Psychic completely dominates the Goha Fest, rendering the fun to zero. I managed to reach top 100 with my sevens paladin deck, of course i ended up pushed back to top 4k or something, every single encounter was pyschic after psychic which made me give up and call it a day.
This personal opinion in my experience from Goha Cup yesterday : -Ancient Gear Golem could be hit but as long Cydra skill can bring it is fine -Yamiruler should stay hit especially Yamiterasu,i only facing Yamiruler once and its really annoying,i cant tribute summon and when i can summon i cant attack because Yamiterasu effect -Star Restart should be hit too,it will be hurt Can :D and Metarion
Well, GRF is over and the results are in. Usually, Konami pays more attention to GRF than to Ladder or adjacent Tournaments since they can see in better detail which Deck is dominant or which Deck is more successful. - Psychic Deck is sure to get a hit. The thing would be to think about which card will get hit. They would put a Limit on CAN:D LIVE like Yamiterasu, so you avoid it combining with CAN - Melo:D. Rhythmical Performer is another candidate to get hit (since it's a free card at the end of the day). However, if Konami wants to be evil, they could limit CAN:D to 3 (if there is a history in Duel Links of Normal Monsters getting hit by Banlist) - DARK Galaxy is another dominant Deck, but since it's new, I don't think that Konami will be hurt it much. Maybe a Limit of 3 for one of its cards (example: Star Trancer). In fact, the West seems to have a lot of experience with DARK Galaxy and consider it a bad Deck or one that Brick a lot (at least from the experience I see in the Ladder). Of all the Decks, this is the most certain that it won't take any hard hits. - I don't think LIGHT Galaxy and Metarion will take a hit as they have proven that they are not problematic Decks for casual Players (or those who don't care about Rush's Duel Links-focused Tournaments). LIGHT Galaxy is on the decline recently thanks to DARK Galaxy and Psychic. On the other hand, Metarion turned out not to be a problematic Deck in GRF and the Ladder. In fact, the West is still wondering why Metarion is so strong since it is an inconsistent Deck when it comes to getting Fusion (and relies heavily on its Fusion Monsters to win) - On the other hand, there's the famous Rush's Cyber Dragon: not powerful in GRF and Tournaments, but annoying/powerful in Ladder. I feel that, instead of putting a Limit on Ancient Gear Golem, they should modify Cyber Dragon's Skill so that it only accepts LIGHT Machines and not other types of Machine Monsters: that way, you weaken the Deck by removing Ancient Gear Golem. I also don't agree with removing the Limit 3 on Jointech Leo, I feel that it prevents that Monster from being able to combo with CAN - Melo :D. In any case, I'm very surprised that Psychic Deck took over GRF when it's a Deck you hardly see on the Ladder. However, if you look closely, most of the Players who use Psychic Deck have Japanese names: which means that Romin's representation comes from Japan (which makes sense since they always said that Psychic Deck would go Meta if it gets its Fusion Monsters). I'm also surprised to learn that the first half of GRF was dominated by Rush's Cyber Dragon and there was almost no Psychic. There was DARK Galaxy, but Cyber Dragon dominated most of the time. LIGHT Galaxy was almost non-existent despite being one of the Meta Decks of the moment.
Psychic BEST DECK LET'S GO!!! 💜 I agree with all the hits and wishlist minus this cards: Psypickupper to 2 JAM:P Check to 1 Can:D Live to 3 Imaginary Reactor to 2 Ashurastar to 3 Star Restart to 3 Thousand knives free (give DM the option to play secret order) Call of the earthbound free
Psychics don't really have a way to recycle cand live aside from pot of avarice and (if you choose to play it) tsa. Jamp start and (if you choose to play it) dream drummer can't recycle it due to cand live being omega psychic instead of psychic so hitting it to 2 would pretty effectively lock them out of check and NA as 1 cand live seems fairly difficult to play off of
I might be alone on this but I want EVERY SINGLE limit 3 maximum piece that is currently there off the list. I get why they’re there they don’t want people making a maximum pile deck of all max pieces but ITS BAD and wouldn’t really matter all that much and the decks tied to all the maximums (especially Dino’s) they’re not that scary and I don’t think giving those maximum decks access to limit 3 cards would be too oppressive.
i slightly disagree. i think yggdrago, dynarmix, and wyrm excavator are all fine to be off the list but Overroad can almost otk by default with the low LP standard. I don't want to deal with that more than i have to.
You know what I want to be changed the Maximum Ragnarok skill It is too restricting to only use Cyberse monsters with 100 and less def I can't add the little variety that I can have so they need to change that part of the skill cause i'm not gonna lie all the other Nail skills are kinda trash.
AGG needs to get a limit I am leaning towards limit 2 then give the tier 1 decks staple limit2 so that they will be forced to drop the staple that got limit2 or Negate Atk to be honest seeing AGG + Negate Atk vs Cyber Dragon usually is GG or they can skill change Cyber Dragon because tbh the deck that abused AGG is Cyberdragon I really hope they do something about it tbh I don't want the Psychics to be hit but judging from the previous KC Cup they will probably hit it since it's the top deck even if it's new Probably a Star restart limit2 since it Also hits Metarion if they Limit 2 Beam I just hope they give Metarion a limit3 to remove Ghost Cyclone on their list🤔
psychic and Dark Galaxys arent getting hit cuz they are the new moneymakers. i expect metarion, machines, and LIGHT galaxy to get hit to strongarm players into spending more on higher tier decks
I feel like DARK Galaxy will just get a Limit 3 along with a Skill fix and that's it. Psychic has a better chance of hitting an old card related to the Deck. Perhaps the funniest thing is that LIGHT Galaxy is a more expensive Deck to build: it's actually cheaper to build a DARK Galaxy Deck. Psychic is the most expensive Deck in Rush's Duel Links right now, but it seems like more than half of the Japanese fanbase already has the full Deck.

always nice hearing your take on Rush banlists :)
imo Star Restart might also be on the banlist
This comment aged well.
@ 🤭
that card is busted imo
getting back fusion and a fusion material for basically free

Unban thousand knives and burst stream of destruction imo classic cards. Fusion going to 1 would kill so many decks it's a must
Tomato:You get unlimited, and YOU get unlimited, and so do YOU get unlimited!! And dont forget you, youre ALSO unlimited!

I played the Metarion Jointech deck on the GRF, Leo unlimited would be great
I have a feeling they might hit Cyber Dragon and Dark Galaxy since they were use more often in Goha Rush Festival and add Can :D/Psychic too

Star Trancer is a bit extra. Having it at 1 with a +1 through a skill would be better.
Ancient gear golem to 3 is good but people will just use it in ultimate mach deck instead with the other 2 limit 3
They should unlimit the original aces beyond the OG Dragius. And the dino maximum.
I might be alone on this but I want EVERY SINGLE limit 3 maximum piece that is currently there off the list.

Did you see that wyrm maximum deck that topped? That must be the dumbest I've seen that topped.
psychic and Dark Galaxys arent getting hit cuz they are the new moneymakers.

oof
Limit 1: every non psychic monster
Unlimited: Jump check, Can-melo:D, maginical miracle and ice pop bear, also give us 3 romanpick
Fixed the format ❤
Wait did I miss something? Lol what are the new dragon cards that got leaked?
Red-Boot Boost Dragon skill for Yuamu
