Whenever the Forbidden & Limited Cards List changes, Duelists try out pretty much every strategy under the sun until they find one that works for them. That’s why I like to play Decks with a wide variety of cards to tackle any situation thrown at me. One of the Decks that I can’t wait to try out is Psychics. Psychic Decks can exploit powerful card effects to handle just about anything opponents throw at them.
As soon as I saw the new Forbidden & Limited Cards List, my brain skipped right over stuff like Mermails and Dragon Rulers and went straight to Noble Knights.

I’ve been excited about Madolches ever since I laid eyes on them, and I’m not just saying that because I’m really hungry while writing this. No, really, the Madolche monsters are a very interesting bunch, capable of doing some things no other Deck can. They’ve been gaining popularity since their release in Return of the Duelist, and now is a great time to give them a taste- er, try. Here’s why I can’t wait to get out there with my Madolche Deck.
