I don't believe that would harm the archetype too much. However, if UDE/Konami decided to ban Il Blud or limit Zombie Master, then the zombie deck as we know it would be no more.

We should probably have less of these "what if threads" and more "they should do" type threads. At least then we would have some real discussions. But if they banned BoL (Book of Life) then nothing to major would happen, they only way to damage zombies is to limit or semi limit Master. Limiting il blud would not do anything as ppl onlly use 1.

ya book is not the problem or was the probvlem(i say was because zombies are not as good as they use to be) but i think the only card that would ever be touched would be zombie master and the worst is semi imo which i still doubt because their is more chances of card of safe return being limited or semi because that is the synergy of the deck tier imo.

Also, they'll NEVER ban book of life... not even limit itWhy not?Listen your reasons.

they probably wouldn't ban or limit book of life. they should limit il blud and limit zombie master. that would give a little moire control over zombies. but they don't even have to do something to begin with. two of the most wide-played decks destroy zombies naturally.

ya i agree thats the reason why zombies will be untouched because the two top deck tiers kill it(D-RAIDA,RFG monarchs), also the only broken part of the deck was the COSR which would give you a big hand to play with..

zombie master at 2 and il blus untouched is fair. I just got an il blud and I made the deck with it and throught testing I was only able to use his effect twice. Its not a big threat so leave him alone. Zombie master on the other hand is cheap, so a limiting would be sufficiant.

zombie master and pyramid turtle r the only cards that can become limited, book of life is a great card but its meh...master good for swarm then vortex for a field wipe for big damage. turtle is just the best searcher (to the field) in the game.

If they dont have a monster when u book of life it doesnt work. Its a great card but its not the biggest threat

yupp thats what i think because thats why zombies have been on the download since their winnings because the 2 top decks are just plain out countering it in many ways. All im going to say is if D-Raida gets hurt by the list and even if marcos does(doubt it but hey you still get advantages from DD surviovor but i still doubt it in many ways imo.) than zombies may be the top tier deck in the begging of the new format at March.

Wow.Something wrong with those quotes.I don't have Zombie Master or Il Blud.And my zombie deck works fine.And Il Blud should be banned.You can summon any zombie card each turn.

Why would UDE ban Blud. He is an expensive card that first of all is not widely used. Next, he has to be summoned twice and he can summon 1 zombie per turn, big deal.

I guess we will have to wait and see.

zombie decks truthfully dont need book of lifes, Mark Johnson jr. proved that in SJC Durham so if they were to be banned im sure the zombies would still be out there and ppl who ran them would run more control based zombies instead of a swarmage

You can never say NEVER when it comes to banning or bringing back cards man. Everyone said Reborn wouldn't come back, but look what happened. UDE doesn't ban cards because they don't do much, but instead on their playability. If Zombies knock off DAD decks within the next 3 SJCs, then they will indeed do something to the Zombie deck to slow it down. For example, Limiting Book or Zombie Master to 1, or even limiting CoSR.

Mst zombie decks only run one Il Blud anyway and COSR is better at 2, 3 can lead to a dead draw so semi limited COSR will only improve them in a way. If any zombie cards should be imited or semi limited is Pramid turtle or zombie master. None of the zombie cards should be banned they just aren't broken.

Il Blud is *less* than needed in a Zombie deck, it helps sometimes but his uses complicate things a little too much for a "mehulksmash" decktype, I'm currently testing a build without him that DESTROYS, I repeat, DESTROYS. Blud is **too** expensive to be usefull in my opinion, I'd rather buy a DAD (but I won't because Zombies are ME LUV) and to people asking reasones as to why they will never ban BoL, the same reason they won't ban like Wildheart, lol the only widely playabe E-Hero not named Stratos, Zombies have'nt done enough, Philip Anthony won a Jump with Zombies, they didn't touch them why? wern't really a threat anymore. if they Ban Book, Zombies would see a HUGE power reduction, but maybe for the better, that frees me up to depend on ZM, to SS my Zombs, and to use recurrsion effects as a second thought as to how Zombies could be played, Control Variants would pop up, but it would make them *close to* unplayable, instead of killing a dominant archetype, Konami now releases cards that push it into obscurity (LaDD < DAD)

Personally, loss of Books would free up more Van'Dalgyon support, so I'm up for a challenge

How did this even get posted on again?? Zombies are nowhere near being part of this current Meta, so why would ANYTHING be touched at the moment? They could probably make Book of Life 5 per Deck and it would still lose to DAD Decks.

As long as you dont use Dark World, you got it.... (But that will still only count on GKO, their Deader than their type in the real world)

no decktype is really "dead" to me, as long as you can put a deck together and play it's very much alive, and Zombies ARE NOT DEAD, no one has the balls to give them another shot, thats their loss.

P.S. Proxy DAD, I don't care, I'll proxie Goblin Zombies and such.

There are too many cards I would have to proxy to use. Wouldnt be worth it.
