Banished

Ah, yet another wacky card. This one causes 2 characters(one choosen by each player) to lose their effects and sideline effects.Yusuke the raver loves this card. It saves him the time of losing his first piece. a team that has only one character with an effect or sideline effect can just choose their own character and not worry about anything else. It can also negate any of those annoying effects your opponent has. But remember, your opponent will be choosing a character too so it's not perfect.

Overall: 3 of 5

Banished

Effects, and Sideline Effects, are all over the place in YuYu lately. Going down the list, Kenko, Koorime, Puu, Suzaku, Elder Toguro, Yoko (Urameshi), Kurama (Kurama), Rando (the technique fetcher), either Suiken Chu. Any of these effects are deserving of a Banished. Yes, they get to shut off one of your characters' effects and sideline effects, but so do you, and this lasts the game, not just a match. So many decks need whatever effect they use to make their deck run, this card can completely shut them down. End of story. Even without the combo issues, being able to punch Kenko in the face with an attack bigger than 5000 is always nice as well, or being able to do more than just your base damage to Puu.

Not worth it for Sealed, if you somehow manage to be able to run a promo card in a Sealed event.

Constructed 4/5 (run two, you'll be thankful)

Limited 1/5
 
TCGkid64 Upsides - Banished is a great overall card in a beatdown deck. I really like this because it is my way of killing a king. Yusuke the raver is completely useless and if you are tired of that yoko, Koorime, or Poo geting on your nerves BAM! it is no more.

Downsides - This card is not going to win you the game if you need your sideline effects because you will lose 1 of them. It is rarelly seen
in play because first you need to draw it and chances are you will not use it.

Overall - 3/5
Against a King 5/5
