Good news for Rarran, there was a use case for Relay Soul! Bad news, it wasn't to win the game. So, Master Duel has these events that happen every month and last for about 2 week, with some pretty good rewards. You unlock the rewards with a point system, 500 points per win, 50 per loss (or something like that, been a while), 0 for concedes. However, during the first event, it was 100 points per win, 50 per loss. So if you managed to lose at least 3 games faster than you won 1, you'd get your rewards faster. That's where cards like Relay Soul were played, in suicide decks.

As for Pot of Generosity, it has a theoretical use that could seem fine on paper. Yugioh decks often include "Engines", which are tiny packages of cards that synergise so well with eachother that you can slot them into other decks and get their very strong endpieces they provide. Many of these engines, however, include Bricks and Garnets. A brick in Yugioh is a card that you literally cannot use if it is in your hand, and a Garnet is a card that breaks its own engine if it does show up in your hand. Some archetypes actually have bricks inherent to their core strategies as well. Theoretically, Pot of Generosity could reset bricks and garnets into the deck to allow the engines a second chance to function if you do draw poorly. This is still terrible, and Generosity is just a way worse version of Magical Mallet, that is also complete trash, but it CAN technically be a beneficial effect in very specific circumstances.

Not even,the reason cards like monster reborn, change of heart and raigeki could come of the banlist is because konami started printing card for their respective archytipe that do this exact thing while also being way more simple to acces to due being tied to a family of cards or because cards that are simply better were printed. Since the concept of archytipes isn't really a thing in magic it's probably pretty hard for MTG players to gauge this. For example there's this card that it currently at one called reinforcements of the army,it tutors any warrior type monster,and it being a Yu-Gi-Oh card,at NO COST. Now many decks have spells,monsters and monsters that search those spells that allow you to search any monster from that archytipe. Even this effect got powercrept by emergency teleport,a card that allows you to not simply tutor ,but to straight up summon a monster directly from the deck,and some decks have such cards,tho konami is more careful with this kind of effects.

as the other guy said its not that power creep happened even if that is a partial factor but rather its because these older banworthy cards dont particularly synergize with modern decks even if they do work well with them like for example the nouvelles archetype has half of their monsters being beast-warriors types which would make you think it would synergize well with a spell card called fire formation - tenki aka tenki that has the effect of adding from deck to hand any lvl 1-4 beast-warrior monsters but because they have other cards that is able to search their monsters for them they choose to not use tenki at all even if tenki has a much wider range of search targets compare to the cards they do use because of easier ease of access as they need to hard draw tenki itself to use it but then there is another deck called lunalight which do uses tenki because they utilize a lot of lvl 4 beast-warrior monsters that essentially allows access to another monster called brotherhood of the fire fist - tiger king who can search out tenki on summon giving the deck access to said card practically on demand with little effort while also in conjunction advancing the lunalight's main strategy another thing with how archetype works is that having the archetype's name within the card's name allows them additional synergy with cards belonging to the archetype e.g ritual beast steeds is a trap card that has an effect that allows you to destroy monsters the opponent controls up to the amount of ritual beast monsters you control but so whats stopping said player from playing an actual board-wipe card like dark hole, raigeki or lightning storm over steeds which is only a potential wipe; the fact that the cards carries "ritual beast" within its name means other ritual beast monsters like kannahawk and apelio whose effect requires them to banish or return "ritual beast" cards to and from the grave means this card has additional use as cost-fodder over other cards basically many decks have easier access to cards that do the same or similar things as many banworthy/banned cards but typically with drawback such as restricted usage or requiring additional cost compare to their more generic counterparts but choose to use thse cards over the generic ones because of things like consistency and other potential synergies

Rarran, regarding Relay Soul. Remember the risk and opportunity cost of even trying to pull of that maneuver. You need to 1st draw relay soul(opportunity cost of 1 card draw and slot in your deck), then you need to risk it by placing it down in advance(risk because backrow removal), then you have to keep a monster in your hand to use as the special summon, thus limiting play options. And what do you get? A chance that if your opponent is already about to win and likely has a mayor advantage already you can buy yourself what is most likely a single extra turn. Even if you manage to get on an even ground during that turn, a single monster removal will be enough to cause an instant loss

It has a use case with garnets. Also I have a meme card idea with the effect of "draw 56 cards." (was 55 before the first turn draw change) So you would technically have the most op effect while you would never be able to resolve it except in combination with the worst effect.

I don't know in how many instances this applies, but: If you play a combo deck that needs to Special Summon from your deck, but you drew the monsters you need to tutor out, you "could" play Pot of Generosity to enable your combo again. I don't think you would run it though.

Aye, there's some cards in combos that you'll never want in your hand, but going -3 in card advantage to return them to the deck isn't something most strategies can do and survive. Also, idk any "garnet" worth going -3 for. If it needs to be in the deck that badly, it's probably not worth running. And if it is, then one would still be better off with a 60 card deck without Pot of Gen, than a 40 card deck with the Pot (which is still a bad strat, imo, but it is a way more common one than the Pot).

Th one part that Stevie didn't mention about why last turn is banned is that the card is a nightmare for judges. There are certain situations that can come up where no one knows what would actually happen. Roughly a year or two ago, MBT did a duel with Cimo for his subathon where they dueled with decks made by his chat. The last duel had them resolving last turn with full armor master on the field, which put simply is a card that is a pain to remove. There are no rulings around Last turn, so what happens in a situation like that is anyone's guess. The question became "Would the FAM stay or go?" And it was left up to someone in Chat who would donate either 20 or 50 subs. It was decided that it would go, but the entire situation could've been fucked if it stayed.

Neko Mane King is actually playable even now without Tearlaments. Dark Worlds can make use of this card by playing Tour Guide, then using Tour Guide's effect to Special Summon Sangan, then you'd go into a link 2 sending Tour Guide and Sangan. Since Sangan hit the GY you can search Neko Mane king. Then when you have Grapha, Dragon Overlord of Dark World on board, you can change the effect of an opponent's normal spell/trap or monster effect to "Your opponent discards 1 card.", which then let's you discard Neko Mane King and you can end your opponent's turn before they even really begin their turn. It is really funny when that happens.

Pot of Generosity was created for the Cyber deck (not Cyber Dragons, the other, much worse ones) that all have bonus effects when you have no cards in your hand. Later the idea was reused for Infernity. The thing is if you want an empty hand, just use your cards, especially if they discard for cost to actually DO something.

Stevie certainly has some hot takes (not to say straight up misinformed takes). Mystical refpanel, while being unplayable in todays format, saw a lot of tournament play during Ravine Ruler format in late 2013 as basically every match was the Ruler mirror - and that deck played a lot of draw spells that refpanel was used against. Last Turn was not only banned for that interaction, it also had a multiple page document detailing how every scenario would work out with Last Turn because the card isnt actually just Win/Lose/Draw. Since it doesnt check the winner until end phase and the battle performed by Last Turn is a "special battle phase", you technically have an entire turn to still play if you somehow have an effect in grave that lets you get cards in play which would cause a number of weird situations.

Last Turn is also a very old card that was released in an environment where removing all cards from field and hand usually meant the turn would be over after the 1v1, but in modern YGO I imagine the turn would continue, using all your GY effects, which would heavily favour the turn player. It would have to automatically end the game after the combat in order to get the true flavour of the card.

Fun fact about Cup of Ace: It was actually broken in Duel Links! In multiple different deck types to! Deck 1 was an old Tea stun strat that used her insane broken skill to start with 1 extra card and just played a bunch of mill cards, this one wasn't 'broken' per-say but was very unfun to play against Deck 2 however was tier 1, it used the Skill "Master of Destiny" which guaranteed that the first 3 coin toss results would be heads, meaning Cup of Ace was basically just Pot of Greed in that deck.
