When is Maxx"C" going to be banned?
So this card is clearly banned from many tournaments and normal plays for it being easy to abuse and so easy to put in your deck like pot of greed. Yes I know the counter play for it is just not summon, but it is still such a really strong card to have on every deck against every person. There is no reason to not have it on any of those try hard meta decks. You cant play a game without the enemy instantly using it on the first attempt to summon.

And I have honestly been sick and tiered of seeing this played on every game, and when I talk about it I am just told to "Get over it" or just "Suck it up" if I do not like it. But clearly its banned for a reason. Clearly its so easy to abuse and needs no skill. Clearly there is something wrong if 90% of decks have 3 of these cards that either give you more cards than a pot of greed or make the enemy skip a turn. Its just such a strong win win card. I don't understand how this is not banned and people become so aggressive when you talk against it. What is going on?

That's the core problem.

It's basically a Jar of Greed bare minimum, summon even ONE more time (because only goobers don't chain Maxx C to something and activate it raw) and you've given your opponent a Pot of Greed on your turn.

3 Summons? A Graceful Charity without the discard effect.

Any more than that is outside of the realm of even Forbidden draw cards.

We banned draw cards like that, but Maxx gets a pass, I know they're not exactly equivalent, but it just doesn't make sense to me that 90% of all cards that enable drawing have drawbacks to prevent another Pot of Greed situation but Maxx C lets you do that on your opponent's turn unless they CBTG/Ash/Crossout it.

If the meta needs an insane card like Maxx C to not be a one-turn clownfest, then the meta itself is inherently broken to the point of needing massive changes, that's why I'm the scorched earth/phonebook F/L list guy of these forums.

Likely never because this game also caters a lot to the ocg player base.

So its a biased take to favor some people...wow

''is banned'' not in the OCG and this game banlist is heavily based in their ban list and not the TCG, I personally never had troubles with it and I would like if the gate stayed more OCG oriented, but I guess it could banned because is almost a auto inclusion in every deck.

I would like it to stay, is a fun card.

skill drain needs to be banished to the shadow realm
maxx c is annoying, except when you special summon so many creatures the opponent decks out, then its funny

OCG format has been balanced around maxx C really hard. Because pretty much no other hand trap hard stops combo decks. Since many can run so many extenders that ash + imperm just aren't enough, then still set up their multinegate board

Because Maxx C is the only thing that makes older decks versatile against 30 summon meta decks and: it can be negated, be played around, be used against the holder or just restricted from play since it requires to go the GY, even in turn 1.

If we agree on banning Ash too (a card that you can't deal with on your opponent's turn 1) and restrict all the OTK - omninegate turn 1 boards then i'll happily give up Maxx C.

Exactly, see? None wants a fair trade, just the advantage. In the end Maxx C was the reason for Ash so i still stand by that.

Sure sounds like a good plan to balance how bad some games feel, hell it might even be more fun

I'll take my 5$ now.
We need a card that punishes over extending since there are no rules against it.
That said...Isn't it just awesome when you make your board and the last card in your hand is Maxx C so your opponent has to expend all their resources to break the board only for me to start fresh next turn? Verily I am amongst the bestest duelistsests

Nibiru, and there's also that Divinecarnate (forgot her name) that can tribute any opponent's monster than used an effect during your turn.

Those cards work to do just that, punish overextension, without being as overpowered as Maxx "C" nor can they be used to insulate your board even better.

Sure, I could use Nibiru, but I'm also losing all my monsters as well.

Maxx C doesn't punish overextension, it punishes playing the game period.
Aldain, on this we agree completely.

So you want to ban everything else so Maxx C can stay. You really don't know what you're talking about.


The most logical thing to do is just ban Maxx C.
