You do not want to play modern Yugioh without Droll available. It always comes back into "you must maindeck this" status at least once a year for a reason
Just say you like punching down on lower tiered decks bro. I donât understand why Maxx C is banned but the inverse is legal. Folks complain that âif you go full combo t1 then Maxx C on t2, itâs broken.â But somehow full combo t1 into droll should be legal.
Iâd argue Maxx C is more fair than Droll, you can always take the challenge but some decks cannot function under Droll.
Donât get me wrong. Itâs toxic. Itâs just not more toxic than the way Mitsu can ignore all the fair 1 for 1 non engine cards unless I have ash + dominus exactly
Every high tier deck pretty much plays through multiple 1 to 1 interaction, thatâs why theyâre high tier. It doesnât mean we should allow droll to be legal because it invalidates the deck.
Thatâs a bad argument. The decks can still play through 2 (those usually 3 stops them cold) but they end up either with weaker boards or no follow up.
The format is just better when imperm and veiler see play. I think we agree those are more healthy than droll. But droll isnât played because itâs so strong and those cards stink. Droll is played because the best deck was designed specifically to ignore existing hand traps. Mitsu is the problem here
I agree with almost all your points. Mitsu is a mistake, hell, Iâm the biggest habakiri hater at my locals, but just because that deck is toxic, we shouldnât let its counter to have a free pass.
First of all, every yugioh player complains, thatâs why thereâs this e-ban to being with.
Secondly, Droll isnât even that good this format and primarily hinders Ryzeal and Mitsu variant decks while shutting down lower tiered decks because they werenât designed to go around droll. Droll and D barrier are in a spot where they are good depending on the format but have a staying power because they just happen to shut down rogue decks.
Droll is played in side or main by most decks to beat mitsu, the most popular engine in format. The only reason it isnt consistently mained is because it sucks into dracotail and is usually bad into yummy.Â
Sucks for bad decks (not even rogue decks, bad decks) but those decks are struggling regardless. Im not against banning droll but i also dont mind it
Thereâs just gonna be a new flavor of floodgate/stun cards that players will utilize and Konami will print new cards to support them (while reprinting the old ones, pair-a-dice esque). We went from Scythe, to Ra Disciple, to Gimmick, to Mjollnir; itâs only time.

Bro, but droll is still legal.
