I would like to talk a bit about this format.
As you may have noticed, the goal of this format is to highlight several Level 4 monsters that were rarely or never used.
My intention is to keep the format balanced. Even when these monsters have effects, those effects are mostly irrelevant within the GOAT and SEMIGOAT metagame.
For example, Volcanic Rocket is essentially just a 1900 ATK vanilla monster here. Even though it has a search effect, the card it searches does not exist in GOAT.
With that premise in mind, I will now explain the recent changes.
Changes to the Limited (1) List
Dragon's Mirror
This is a card that is not very useful in the opening hand and is rarely used effectively in this format.
It was added mainly to give some support to decks that are not commonly played here, such as Blue-Eyes and Red-Eyes.
Similarly, some Fusion Monsters that were not originally part of GOAT were added, such as Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon and Meteor Black Dragon.
Exarion Universe
A card that arguably should have always been part of GOAT. No further explanation needed.
Miracle Fusion
Playing HERO decks in Goat is one of the hardest things you can attempt. Their fusions are weak, and you usually spend three resources to summon a monster that still dies to Bottomless Trap Hole, Smashing Ground, or Sakuretsu Armor.
Because of that, allowing Miracle Fusion at one copy seemed like an interesting change that could make a real difference.
However, I do not plan to introduce Neos, Neo-Spacians, or the rest of their support.
Monster Reborn
It is interesting how useful a card like this becomes in the format. It also encourages players to stop relying on Call of the Haunted.
Red-Eyes Fusion
This card forces you to include Level 5 or Level 7 monsters in your deck, and it balanced at one copy.
I believe it will be fun to see how players experiment with it.
I also do not plan to introduce negation monsters such as Red-Eyes Slash Dragon The main goal is simply to make summoning the Skull and Meteor fusions possible.
Changes to the Limited (2) List
Elemental HERO Wildheart & Tenkabito Shien
At first it seemed interesting to release these Trap-immune monsters.
However, after several tests it became clear that they were not very relevant to the format.
Their low ATK makes them easy to remove, and most players prefer to run a 1900 ATK monster instead.
For this reason, both cards were moved to 2 copies. They may even be moved to 3 in the near future.
Changes to the Unlimited (3) List
Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon & Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon
These are cards that arguably should have always been legal in GOAT.
Anyone who manages to summon them deserves respect, because doing so is extremely difficult.
Meteor Black Dragon & Meteor Dragon
As mentioned earlier, these cards mainly serve as additional support for Blue-Eyes.
Interestingly, they arrived in the TCG more than 10 years after their release in the OCG. The movie came out in 1999, so it is surprising that they reached our side of the game so late.
Obelisk the Tormentor, Slifer the Sky Dragon & The Winged Dragon of Ra
The three Egyptian Gods should have been released much earlier, alongside the original anime.
Allowing them in GOAT is an interesting experiment. In reality, they are not particularly strong—after all, you are tributing three monsters just to summon something that still dies to Smashing Ground.
Toon Dark Magician Girl
The Toon deck struggles heavily because it loses to a single Mystical Space Typhoon.
At least with Toon Dark Magician Girl, the archetype gains a little extra support.
X-Saber Anu Piranha
A simple 1800 ATK Warrior monster.
In practice, nobody ended up using it, since EARTH decks already have stronger support options. Therefore, he was moved to the unlimited.
That's all for now. See you in the next Banlist.

ESPAÑOL
Hablaré un poco de este formato.
Como se habrán dado cuenta, esté formato trata de resaltar algunos monstruos nunca usados de nivel 4.
Trato de que esté balanceado, y que aunque tengan efectos, estos sean irrelevantes para el meta de GOAT y SEMIGOAT.
Por ejm. Volcanic Rocket es solo un monstruo amarillo de 1900 aquí, porque aunque tenga un efecto de buscar, la carta que busca no existe en GOAT.
Entendida esta premisa explicaré los cambios recientes.
CAMBIOS EN LA LIMITACIÓN A 1.
Dragon's Mirror
Es una carta que no es útil en primera mano, y que raramente se puede usar bien en este formato.
Se añadió para intentar darle soporte a decks poco usados aquí, como son Blue-eyes y Red-eyes.
Del mismo modo se agregó fusiones que no estaban en GOAT, como Ultimate y Meteor Black Dragon.
Exarion Universe
Una carta que siempre debió estar en GOAT, no necesita explicacion.
Miracle Fusion
Jugar héroes en Goat es lo mas difícil que puedes hacer. Las fusiones son malas y gastas 3 recursos para generar un monstruo que se muere con Bottomless, Smashing o Sakuretsu.
Por ello me pareció interesante liberarles esta carta a 1 copia, que definitivamente hara gran cambio.
No está planeado traer a NEOS ni a los NEOSPACIAN ni mucho menos todo el resto de soporte.
Monster Reborn
Es interesante lo útil que resulta una carta como esta, y hace que se deje de jugar Call of the Haunted.
Red-Eyes Fusion
Una carta que te obligara a llevar monstruos de nivel 5 o 7 en tu deck, y que a una copia esta bastante balanceado. Siento que será divertido de ver.
No está planeado traer negadores como el Dragon de Corte, es mas para sacar las fusiones del Craneo y Meteoro.
CAMBIOS EN LA LIMITACIÓN A 2.
Elemental HERO Wildheart y Tenkabito Shien
Al inicio parecía interesante liberar estas cartas inmunes a trampas, pero luego de varias pruebas, se vio que no eran relevantes.
El hecho de tener tan bajo ataque hace que sean fácilmente destruidas, por lo que la gente suele preferir llevar un monstruo de 1900 de ATK en su lugar.
Por esta razón liberé las cartas a 2, y tal vez se vean a 3 en el futuro cercano.
CAMBIOS EN LAS LIBERADAS A 3.
Respecto a Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon y Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, son cartas que siempre debieron estar en GOAT, y mis respetos para quien intente invocarlas, es algo sumamente difícil.
Meteor Black Dragon y Meteor Dragon, ya lo explique antes, soporte blue-eyes, que llegó a TCG mas de 10 años después de salir en OCG. Vamos, la película salió en 1999, no es posible que llegara tan tarde a nuestro lado del continente.
Obelisk the Tormentor, Slifer the Sky Dragon y The Winged Dragon of Ra.
Los 3 dioses egipcios: Esas cartas debieron salir mucho antes, con el primer anime.
Me parece interesante liberarlos en GOAT, de todos modos no son cartas tan fuertes, solo imagínate sacrificar 3 monstruos para invocar a un monstruo que se muere con Smashing.
Toon Dark Magician Girl
Que puedo decir, el deck Toon es malo porque se muere con un Tifón, al menos con la Maga oscura tendrán un poquito mas de soporte.
Finalmente X-Saber Anu Piranha, un monstruo amarillo de 1800 de ATK y Guerrero, nadie terminó usándolo, puesto que los decks de TIpo tierra tienen mejores soportes, así que lo dejé a 3.
Eso es todo, nos vemos en la siguiente BANLIST.
