You can't play the game

[Cinnamoon_dragon]

Can anyone tell me is it even legal? My opponent started the game first. He summoned a monster with the effect "your opponent cannot summon monsters, except wind monsters". He protected it with some link monster, and there was also another monster boss which could negate any of my actions once a turn.
I can't summon anything because my monsters are dragons and I also can't use any spells or traps because it will only be wasted.
Is my free-to-play experience is finished?

Ah ran into a wind based anti-meta deck, I take it the "your opponent cannot summon monsters, except wind monsters" monster was Barrier Statue of the Stormwinds.

Eh just keep at it, if you keep playing you can get lucky, I myself have both won and lost a lot, but I just hit gold rank with nothing but my Eldlich deck.

Yes Neither player can special summon monsters, except wind monsters.

I hope that all these guys will quickly reach the maximum rank and leave the ranked games otherwise it's too hardcore

Bumped into an AI in Solo that SOMEHOW was able to deny any of his monsters from being destroyed in combat... And then he mopped the floor. Yeah, Yu-Gi-Oh got REALLY confusing/complex, but I still like it. Just I don't expect to get into the competitive scene.

you need to put cards in your deck that remove such things without interacting with the effects.
An example would be nibiru or kaijus.

The best thing to do is prevent them from getting that far though, things like ash blossom, infinite imperm etc are designed specifically to stop a guy from getting to that game state.

You can cheat the Wind statue out with the simorgh Link in any deck tbh, I use it in my dinosaur deck for when I can't get full combo.

I have it but I never draw it on my first turn from a 40-card deck.
Ash blossom at 3 copies, but there are too many effects on the opponent's side activated, so canceling just one changes almost nothing.

Man, seeing all this makes me tempted to see if I can pull off Last Warrior From Another Planet in the year 2022.

Oh and one of my opponents activated some kind of green hand in response to my ash blossom and it was negated =D
