I believe all of that falls under "rushed writing for the sake of plot"

I mean think about it. They didn't use any really new cards these past few episodes. I think cause they wanted to hurry into the next season they really did rush a lot of this ender.

I mean to use any of the Corrosion Codes of any other new cards would require them to add time to the episodes for explaining the cards and promoting them as strong. Which would've extended this season to maybe another two or three episodes if they wanted to use all of the main new cards.

Granted I would've been super fine with that as probably a lot of fans would've but I would think Bushiroad didn't care and wanted to hurry into the next season cause of big deals coming back Drum and Bal (Bushiroad's Dragon Fetish never changes XP)
