There was one called the dark hole
"Destroy all cards on the field and remove them from play"
cheap as hell! there's no way they allow that thing in tournies!
edit: come to think of it, I dont think it removed them from play, just sent to them to the graveyard; still cheap as hell!
Dark Hole actually just destroys all monsters on the field, and that includes your own. Helpful in a pinch (and now Limited) but I still don't think it's THAT cheap, unless you're using it in a spell-and-trap only deck or something.
I was never a really hardcore player, but it seemed like that one made it just a little too easy to wipe their field, summon an 1800 atk monster and chew up a hefty chunk of lifepoints.
if theyre sporting some high attack guys or some overly equipped guys that you just can't kill, it just wipes them all.... and you can have 3 of these things in your deck : \
combine that with some other monster killers (man eater bug, etc) and they'll barely be able to keep guys on the field to soak lifepoint damage.
I dunno, seems a little OP, but there's probably plenty of counters I just don't know about.
Dark Hole has always been limited and you were always only allowed 1 in your deck. Unless they took it off the ban list for a bit when I took a break. That if you play by official ban lists playing with friends without ban lists you could have up to 3. Raigeki and Harpie's Feather Duster were always much more OP and have since been banned completely.
Aside from that decks are so ridiculously fast to summon creatures now Dark Hole is more an annoyance rather than a real set back in comparison to what it used to be like. Also add in the bullshit that is Stardust Dragon and well Dark Hole isn't even a factor any more.
OT: I see there is no love for Dark world cards here or anyway but I am going to have to give my favourite to Grapha, Dragon Lord of Dark World
.
Quite an abusable card as if I discard him I can destroy 1 of your cards and if you discard him I do that and look at one card in your hand if that was a monster I get to summon it. Then when Grapha is in the graveyard I can return one Dark World monster I control to my hand to bring him back from the graveyard. With Gates of the Dark World he then becomes a 3,000 attack point Beater when he is sitting on the field.
While is a ***** when I can bring him out some call this nooby there are very few things in this current format that aren't nooby and abusable in my opinion compared to how the game used to run. Then again Yu gi oh always ran around who had the most abusable deck.
