In vielen Gesprächen mit anderen Spielern werde ich oft nach meinen Eindrücken zur Liste der verbotenen und Limitierten Karten gefragt, wenn eine solche neu erschienen ist. Oftmals interessieren mich dabei seltener die Entscheidungen die für das aktuelle Meta getroffen werden als vielmehr die Tatsache, dass viele Karten noch immer auf der Liste stehen, obwohl diese mit der Zeit scheinbar unrelevant geworden sind.
Oft habe ich darüber philosophiert, welchen Impakt Karten von damals auf das Meta von heute hätten und musste immer wieder feststellen, dass der Großteil dieser Karten doch zurecht ihr Dasein als verbotene oder limitierte Karte fristen. Man kann also nicht behaupten, dass das R&D-Team bei Konami sich keine Gedanken um den Einfluss solcher Karten macht.
2014 hatten sie damit angefangen, Kartentexte mal mehr und mal weniger stark abzuändern, damit die entsprechenden Karten schrittweise wieder Entlimitert werden können. Überraschenderweise gab es aber 2017 mit Ausnahme von "Witch of the Black Forest" keine weiteren Erratums, welche die Liste weiter entlasten könnten. Dabei wäre es mit der Once-per-turn-Klausel, welche bereits Anwendung auf Rescue Cat, Brionac und Sinister Serpent (mit zusätzlichen Änderungen) fand, so einfach, die ganzen eingeschränkten Karten auf ein Minimum zu halten. Doch auch mit leichten Veränderungen des Textes lässt sich eine Karte so anpassen, dass der "Geist" bzw. Grundgedanke der Karte erhalten bleibt.
Im Zuge dieses Gedankenexperiments habe ich eine Aufstellung mit alternativen Kartentexten kreiert, welche ich zur Diskussion anbieten möchte. Das Ergebnis, sprich die gekürzte Liste, findet ihr dann ganz unten.

Einige Karten wie z.B. Limiter Removal sind zwar als einzelne Karten an sich relativ schwach, ändern ihr Potenzial aber, wenn plötzlich mehrere Exemplare davon erlaubt wären. Für diese gibt es eigentlich nur einen Lösungsansatz, damit sie von der Liste verschwinden können: Ihren Einsatz auf einmal pro Duell beschränken. Ich habe diese Karten bewusst außen vor gelassen, eventuell fällt euch ja noch eine geeignete Möglichkeit ein, deren Spielstärke signifikant einzuschränken.
Wie gefallen euch meine Vorschläge? Seid ihr mit einigen Änderungen unzufrieden oder haltet eventuell bestimmte Karten trotz Einschränkung noch immer für zu stark? Wie steht ihr allgemein dazu, dass Kartentexte verändert werden?
