question

[guitarhero304]

are they goin to make a ban list for this game i have seen some people want some cards banned i hope they dont make one just wondering if anyone knows anything about it

[kakashi pwned u]

i doubt bandai will ever ban a card for the game but i personally want to see a card here and there banned but taking a card away can ruin so many decks and i know a lot of people want gaara tn gone but so many people base their deck around it that it is almost funny but also banning a card would make people think they can other cards banned and then everyone will want cards banned it will cause a chain reaction so basicly bnning one card would basicly shutting down naruto

Banning a broken card is good for a TCG as long as the company doesn't start to ban cards left and right. Erratas are the prefered way of fixing a card but if that doesn't work, then a ban is ok.

Bandai did say that they didn't want to ban cards but Gaara might have changed their minds. What Bandai should never do is limit cards.

They should just errata cards, Yu-Gi-Oh pissed me off with the ban list -_-

[guitarhero304]

yea i think they should just errata cards im still new to the game but i see no real reason for a ban list

[Hobbes]

I don't think Gaara deserves a Ban/ Errata, all decks can use him so its there own fault for not -_-

Maybe an errata though so that you can only use his effect by sacrificing an on-element ninja or a ninja with greater to or equal entrance cost, or make it so he can only use his effect after he is sent out to battle

[kakashi pwned u]

it is true that everydeck can use him but then everyone would have a form of gaara tn in their deck and soon enough it would become uniform and a lot less fun

[Shy Guy]

Some bans are necessary in TCGs. Gaara is a necessary ban at this point. Too many erratas get confusing, especially for new players and also there is no way to errata Gaara without

A) changing his effect completely

or

B) making him completely worthless anyways

Best option would be to ban him. Anyone who thinks that bans aren't necessary in card games should look up an M:TG card called "Skullclamp", that card is the best example of a necessary ban.

As stated, the worst idea in card games is to start limiting things. You start limiting things you create staples and make things a lot more luck based, especially with a system like Naruto where cards are coming off the top of your deck as Battle Rewards.

or
c) make him have a huge downfall

[Shy Guy]

That pretty much fits into the B) category.

Speaking of bans, everyone who doesn't think Gaara should be banned should take a look at the link in my sig "Article explaining necessary bans".

[kakashi pwned u]

well not rly cause it can have it's same effect but then a downfall like u must laso discard 2cards in ur hand or discard 5 chakra

[Shy Guy]

Which as I stated before goes in category B) because an errata like that makes him completely worthless. No one's gonna play it if they have to discard that many cards or chakra, which makes him worthless. At that point, banning him is a better option.

[kakashi pwned u]

ok it does fit in b) srry

[Voo-Dee-Ant]

I am new to naruto and have definitely no idea of the effects of Garra [Tragic Name] but I have seen the SkullChamp uproar and the effect of Yu Gi Oh also. The ban would have to be neccessary to stop the downturn of the game, in My Opinion

Staples in decks are a bad way to ruin the game.
