Today I’ll be answering why was Monster Reborn banned.

Why was Monster Reborn banned?

Monster Reborn was banned simply because the committee changes their feelings about the card in general often. The same situation could be applied to the card Premature Burial. A personal favorite of mine that made it off the ban list is Black Luster Soldier: Envoy of The Beginning.

• The process of getting cards unbanned

A pattern of “hate.”

Monster Reborn was a card that frustrated many players because it seemed to be on the banned list and taken off every other year.

With that said, although it’s unbanned, it is still on a limited list, meaning there can only be one in each deck.

That does communicate that the card may have a lopsided advantage for the owner.

The main argument is that it has a cost less, and overpowered benefit in being able to revive a card from either graveyard.

And plus you can do it without having to tribute any monsters for the card chosen.

So for example, you can Special Summon any monster you can think of unless it has specific restrictions against it.

Final Thoughts

This video is a little dated, but still speaks on the history of it being banned pretty well.

Enjoy.
