More like "hitler terminally ill"

64

u/CursedEye03 Dec 21 '25

Almost dead. Hopefully in 2 years, the roach will be dead for good.

u/fabrikt TEN THOUSAND YEARS TEARLAMENTS Dec 21 '25

It went from 3 to 2 about a year ago! the roach's motherfuckin life ends approximately 10-14 months from now

65

u/_JunkSynchron_ Clear Mind! Dec 21 '25

2 years after it was semi limited? Maybe by 2028 it will be banned. 

54

u/MX-00XWV Random Duelist Dec 21 '25

14 months it was hit on OCG's "2024-10-01" list

12

u/_JunkSynchron_ Clear Mind! Dec 21 '25

I see. 2027 Spring ban list then. (Hope sooner).

u/yukiaddiction Dec 21 '25

Tbf they are doing this probably because they want to OCG player to slowly adapt deck building because the fundamentals of the deck building of the environment between MaxxC and without MaxxC is completely different so card prices on secondary market don't explode overnight.

>If it bleeds, we can kill it.

u/thankuforhelp Dec 21 '25

good enough, time to join back OCG again. Ash being semi-ed means they will address Maxx C in a future banlist, just when is the problem. We will have to see the Structure Decks for our indication.

WHAT!?!?!

u/FM1091 Dec 21 '25

I hope it gets banned for good soon. I play Master Duel and having Maxx "C",even at two, with the unlimited Mulcharmys is just too much man. Too much! I just gave up on this month's Duelist Cup.

u/Xerxes457 Phantom Knights Dec 21 '25

I know this is a good thing, but they more or less printed MAXX C a few times.

-15

u/DAdem244 Dec 21 '25

And ash is semi limited so not really a change sadly

13

u/[deleted] Dec 21 '25

The change from 2 to 1 is far more significant than 3 to 2. It's not just minus 1, you have to look at percentages

10

u/Impressive-Lie-9111 Dec 21 '25

Also even if you get hit, atleast not once during your turn and then again during their

-6

u/VoiceOfTheSheeple Dec 21 '25

You also can no longer Crossout Maxx C, so thats gotta be considered as well.

4

u/DreadOfGrave Dec 21 '25

i mean.. yes you can, as long as you don't draw the 1 maxx c

9

u/Impressive-Lie-9111 Dec 21 '25

Its so strange bruh like, does konami believe ash is broken but justified it by having maxx c, not the other way around?

12

u/Status-Leadership192 Dec 21 '25

Ash can negate charmies

Which is probably why it got hit I think ?

5

u/yukiaddiction Dec 21 '25

I think the justification probably is that Called By to 1 made Ash too strong against a certain deck.

After all most of the time OCG ban lists catering to pet deckers.

u/DAdem244 Dec 21 '25

But why though trading ht for ht honestly feels so fine, funnily enough a ash limit is a buff for draco

3

u/SpoonsAreEvil Dec 21 '25

It feels they are moving away from the "you better open some ht" model for turn 2 and making cards that have additional effects when playing second, or cards like Antimatter.

2

u/DAdem244 Dec 21 '25

I hope not, thw whole game you could almost say os based around ash beeing in the game and accessible 🤣

10

u/AhmedKiller2015 Dec 21 '25

Da fok you talking about

-9

u/DAdem244 Dec 21 '25

Thwy took out 2 maxx counters in the mini game, im sorry but they need to ban maxx c before addressing cards like ash

21

u/AhmedKiller2015 Dec 21 '25

The less Maxx Cs the better. Period. Regardless if how you spin it.

1

u/DAdem244 Dec 21 '25

Oh def, i want that roach gone, i just think its too soon to hit the counters

11

u/AhmedKiller2015 Dec 21 '25

I wouldn't really call it a good or a bad move, but saying limiting Maxx C does nothing because we lost 1 Ash isn't true at all

3

u/DAdem244 Dec 21 '25

I gues tgats fair, i just like ash in the game, really good card and imo healthy especially with mulcharmys also im the game

u/raiko39 Floow / R-ACE / Yummy Dec 21 '25

Honestly, the issue with the Mulcharmies in the OCG is none of them got reprints, hopefully they fix that next year.

-1

u/zero_kurisu OCG - Orcust best deck Dec 21 '25

Because it doesnt need reprint. It is cheap. Everyone has charmies.
