The first two cards aren't even that fantastic in Burning Abyss. The third one is nice against Xyz but wouldn't be touched at all; sure you can get rid of materials but what good will it be when the monster comes back? And lastly, putting cards from Unlimited to Semi-Limited is not a nerf.

Cagna is free advantage, I don't see how it's not good in Burning Abyss, the 3rd one is actually really good, tbh, and putting the Ritual and its Spell to 1 or 2 cuts down slightly on the shenanigans that the deck can pull. All of the new support is actually really great, and I don't think they need anymore support for a good while, because what they have been getting is just too good. The deck generates enough advantage and with the 3rd card on that list, things are getting even dumber. Burning Abyss is a great deck, and I like it, but I think it's about time to really water down it's support, and hit some parts of the deck.

My claim was not that these new supports were bad, I acknowledge that these cards are good but not to the extent that you claim it to be. You seem to jump the gun extremely quickly with these new supports. But if the original Burning Abyss which searches, specials from the deck and specials from the graveyard didn't get hit; then I don't expect the card that specials from the hand (-1 in most situations), the card that dumps a Spell or Trap card from the deck to the grave, the card that banishes until the end phase and the ritual spell which special a monster with decent stats to get hit. Are they good? Sure, are they banlist worthy? No.
