The Strenght of '1FOR1 card'

This post is not a review toward a card that most of you familiar: "One for One",
"1 for 1" is a group of cards that you can remove 1 of your opponent card by using a particular card.

details look at http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/1_For_1_Card

As we getting better in the game,
we look at the cost while removing opponent card.
It is better to use 1 card to get rid as much cards as possible.
That is the reason for not Heavy Storm-ing your enemy when they are setting only one card,
unless its a game ending turn.

That explain why Harpie's Feather Dust and Raigeki getting ban right?
However, using 1 for 1 card create a circumstance where your opponent need to decide what card to chain. In other word, they are in pressure because a bad decision will kill them.

The cost of negating usually are higher than activation,
this difference become even clearer when a counter deck vs a 1for1 deck.
As Solemn Judgment is limited to 1, many people use Starlight Road, My Body as Shield, Dark Bribe as the set of cards to protect their monsters and S/T.

The cost become even deadly when they use it to negate 1for1 card because both side will use out 1 card, but LP difference is your advantage.

sample of 1for1 cards:
Yomi Ship
Lyla (consider as 1for1 cause it is unlikely to survive after using its effect)
Breaker the Magical Warrior (more than 1for1 as you are wont be sacrificing the monster)
D.D Warrior Lady
Yomi Ship

Ground Smash
Fissure
MST

Bottomless Trap Hole
Trap hole
Dust Tornado
Dimensional Prison

These cards will definately stop Starlight Road from activating.
It may as well say bye to Dimension Eatos deck.
