I wanted to create a custom format that mixes nostalgia with balanced gameplay.

Basic Rules

·         Each player starts with 2000 life points.

·         You cannot declare a direct attack, unless your opponent did not summon (or attempt to summon) a monster during the previous turn

·         Damage via card effects is always negated. Costs, however, are still applied.

·         You can Normal Summon monsters in face-up Defense Position.

·         Normal Monsters cannot be Set in face-down Defense Position

·         LV5 and higher monsters are Normal Summoned without Tributes.

·         You can use LV5 or lower Fusion Monsters in your Main Deck (If on Dueling Network, just keep them in your Extra Deck and Normal Summon them by skipping your Draw Phase ; They still are affected by deckbuilding requirements.)

Deck Building Requirements

·         LV5 or lower Fusion monsters can be used in your Main Deck as regular monsters.

·         Ritual Monsters are kept in and summoned from your Extra Deck (via Ritual Magic Cards)

·         Your main deck must contain at least 50 cards.

·         You cannot use more than 3 LV7 monsters

·         You cannot use more than 3 LV6 monsters

·         You cannot use more than 4 LV5 monsters

Additional Rules

·         Your opponent cannot play a monster in Defense Position for four consecutive turns.

·         Once per duel: When an opponent's monster declares an attack on your monster, you can activate your face-down Normal Spell; the card will activate and resolve like a Normal Trap card.

·         If you control the monster on the field with the highest ATK, you cannot activate an Equip Spell card.

·         When a monster card you control is destroyed by a card effect, you take 200 damage.

·         Once per turn: When a player successfully activates Polymerization, he/she draws 2 cards.
