Good idea there, possibly all the card would need to be unbanned. It's not readily searchable after all, and that would heavily limit what you can do with it. Certainly some decks would still use it, but since it's not usable with Anaconda and isn't a "Fusion" or "Polymerization" card, it's not the most searchable spell card out there. Certainly it could come back at 1 with the above restrictions, and with the way the current meta is, it could very likely be at 2 or 3 without breaking the game.

A lot of early YGO cards don't really obviously look good until you see them in play, or think about them in the context of play. And for all of these good cards there are plenty that look good but actually suck, like Magical Mallet, or cards that ARE good but are held back by their asinine requirements to play them, common example for that one is BEWD Chaos MAX because it's incompatible with the most popular Ritual support, Pre-Preparation of Rites, for an obscure reason, that being the ritual spell used, does not name BEWD Chaos or Chaos MAX, and neither of those cards name change, only Dark Magician of Chaos name changes to meet the condition for Chaos Form. My example of a card that is on paper good but is actually super impractical is Borreload Riot Dragon, because Heavy Interlock's condition doesn't actually trigger most Rokkets, since most of them require Link effects to target them.

For metamorphosis I recommend restrict it to non-effect fusion monsters. That would make it more unique and give a chance to a large chunk of terrible fusion monsters that haven't seen a single moment of glory since their inception (cough St. Joan cough). Brilliant Fusion is easy to fix. Just negate the effects of the summoned monster, and maybe let you have access to the effects of the monster if you use the effect of discarding a spell card to restore the original Atk and Def values. EDIT: Also, make Brillant Fusion only able to mill Gem-Knight monsters. Metamorphosis cannot have the same change as Brillant Fusion because you can simply Book of Eclipse on the summoned monster to reset it whenever you want. EDIT 2: Alternatively, since the background art and the gemstones are VERY obviously from the Crystal Beast archetype instead of the Gem-Knight archetype, change the effect to summoning Rainbow Overdragon instead, who is LONG overdue for getting a decent fusion card. EDIT 3: and then Konami made Ready Fusion and a continous spell that gives you my nerfed Brilliant Fusion every turn.

How about negate the player's GY & GY targeting except GemKnight & GK in text cards while its face up on the field? That would brick most outside archetype setup as the card can still take a ST zone if the fusion target leaves as material/tribute. As for the FTK, just limit GK Lapis so players can't Rescue Rabbit setup & use other support to dig for it while other GK normal monsters get more attention like GK Sapphire for its field removal effects in its fusion options for turn 2. Semi-limit Gem Knight Fusion could help nerf the FTK as well.

Yes. The gameplay is most about beating their game pieces. If everyone could freely combo off as easily as they wanted, even jank decks could put up consistent otk's. There is back and forth and there is options in gameplay, when you restrict your opponents options you force them to have to play smart and come up with new ways to beat your plays. That's where the fun is in. If you could just memorize combos and what cards you have to remove from your opponent the game would be mega boring.

I think one way to fix Cold Wave and to make it more balance is by making it prevent both player to use or set a spell / trap card until your next end phase instead of your next turn. You can also add a restriction to prevent you to attack until your next end phase as well (so blocking you from attacking for 2 turns). So you can't use Cold wave to win a game by summoning lots of monsters and still keeping the theme of "freezing the field"

Heavy storm/Dimension fusion fix: Only destroy/summon the same number of your and your opponents cards. Meaning you need setup for both. Cold wave fix (I don't know how to do problem solving card text but here goes): Must be activated at the start of your main phase 1, You and your opponent cat set any number of spell or trap cards from your hand face down, until the end of your opponents turn neither player can play nor set additional spell or trap cards except those set down by this effect. So it pretty much locks you out of any spells/traps for the turn as cards placed face down cannot be used that turn, and allows you to snipe your opponents combo pieces with monster effects (or traps during their turn) before they can be activated for combos.

I thought of a similar thing. If you've decided to play Cold Wave, you would only be able to use monsters for the turn, a clear disadvantage to yourself. A possible advantageous scenario would be for monster-heavy/monster-centered decks, which would probably be just as viable without this version of Cold Wave, but this added restriction (which seems to be already hinted with the "At the start of Main Phase 1") might be enough. However, a card which slows the game so heavily might still be in the banlist just because, so who knows, but Cold Wave would be an interesting floodgate.

Slight correction on Dimension Fusion. Dark magician of chaos was actually banned after Dimension Fusion in September 2008 alongside Destiny hero disk commander and premature burial bringing a close to the pre-synchro era while fusion died in the may 08 emergency banlist. They originally limited limited dimension fusion in 2007 and later magical stone excavations because the latters ability to retrieve fusion was considered the broken component. When phantom darkness released in 08 this would prove lacking as the destiny and reasoning gate engines alongside DDR and allure of darkess to reach dmoc and fusion easily conglomerated to create a playerbase destroying horror known as DDT. Just figured id point it out. As for fixes. Dimension Fusion should be made A hard OPT and monsters that have already been summoned this turn cant be summoned by its effect. This prevents loops and doubling up on effects as seen by the infamous dmoc loop's while letting the card of performing its intended mass summon role. Not sure if its enough but it goes along way.

It's possible you could fix cold wave, not by making it weaker, but by making it stronger but then make it lopsided so there's a major downside. Like, add the additional downsides to it since you'll be able to plan your deck around the possibility, but if you locked your opponent out of spells and traps for two turns, and yourself for five turns, the game won't always make it that long by then but you're functionally giving up spells and traps for the rest of the duel. Give it a niche activation requirement, largely just to make it more interesting to build a deck around and further restrict who can make use of such a powerful card, like maybe you need to tribute a dinosaur and a water monster with ice in it's name or card text to activate it's effect. You might also want to still mystical refpanel it because then your opponent is locked for 5 turns and you're fine two turns from now
