Well, Cyber Dragons have finally been murdered.

Between the skill rework and having both Cyberload and Overflow at Limited 2, Cyber Dragons are now dead.

Honestly, just killing the skill would've been enough. The skill had been the primary problem with Cyber Dragons being meta for so long. I took the time to build a Cyber Dragon deck that didn't need to rely on the skill with its free summons. And now it has suffered from players abusing the skill.

It wasn't even as rampant as Shiranui or a bunch of other decks that needed hit because they overwhelmed the meta. For a popular anime archetype with a long history, it got ht harder than all of the other decks; Dark Magician, Blue-eyes and Heroes in general.

It would've been nice if I wasn't punished for the rampant abuse of the skill. The skill was the problem. But the deck was hit WAY harder than necessary.

Yes the fusion spell limit was unnecessary, but the skill was busted, so it needed a change. The deck used only like 3 monsters because of how powerful was. Atleast right now they can add more cyber supports, maybe we soon get the Xyz ones.

At this point, getting Cyber Dragon Infinity would be warranted.

I would also like to see "No Excuses" improved a bit. Perhaps make it a 2000 LP loss activation and you shuffle a card in your hand that says "Fusion Summon" into your deck, then have Power Bond added from outside of your deck to your hand.

It's also too bad they're not releasing Power Bond. Otherwise they'd be reworking "No Excuses!".

They always overnerf things. Karakuri got murdered, Restart skill which was already bad got even worse. Darklords got killed, Star Seraph chair got hit even tho it was only used in random rogue decks besides Darklord. Desperado got the skill nerfed which kills the deck but for some reason they still hit Ms Judge.

They didn't over nerf Blue Eyes, nor overnerf Dark Magician or Heroes.

Desperado and Ms. Judge made a skill that was intended to be niche too powerful.

Restart and Balance were simply too powerful as generic skills. They had been crowding out other skills that weren't as generic.

Darklords were not super expensive to build compared to Cyber Dragons. It was cleaning out one box, and you had most of what you needed with 2 cleanings. Cyber Dragons needed 2 boxes, level up rewards and ranked rewards to build a deck that didn't rely on the skill.
