I run a plant deck, not a quickdraw or anything, just plain plants. Do you think that with quickdraw decks being so good that my deck would be affected as a result of the 2011 March banlist? I'm mainly talking about Dandylion and Lonefire. Thanks! :D

Party should actually look at the ratings of the Top strategy card games and see which card game is on top. Magic is not a strategy game and will only be considered one by those who play it. Yu-Gi-Oh has a limited field size where as magic is unlimited there for less strategy needed to play the game. Also for your Question I would wait till the list comes out.
Dandylion isn't really very broken. Lonefire Blossom, on the other hand, is ridiculously broken. I can see Lonefire getting put to 1, and I wouldn't be surprised if Dandylion went to 1 as well, but I doubt it will happen.
Banned: Cold Wave Monster Reborn Mass Driver, because this card has literally never done anything BUT promote OTKs and FTKs. [I also feel that Giant Trunade should be banned because it only serves to promote OTKs. It is an inherent minus in any non-OTK deck as it only clears the field for one play, and solitary plays in non-OTK decks aren't usually necessary for the deck to compete)
Limited: Lonefire Blossom Superancient Deepsea King Coelacanth Solemn Warning Gateway of the Six Royal Tribute Tsukuyomi Tribe-Infecting Virus XX-Saber Darksoul [Possibly Pot of Duality. If it doesn't get Limited, then there's nowhere else on the banlist for it to go. It's not broken enough to get banned, and almost everyone already only runs 2 because 3 tend to cause you to draw them when you don't want them] [Also, Trishula will go to 1 eventually. It's just none of us actually know when)
Semi-Limited: Debris Dragon
Unlimited: Mystical Space Typhoon Magic Cylinder Magical Stone Excavation
There is some talk that dandy might return to 1 but in general plants rely on so many cards that they're pretty hard to hit. I will note that almost any discussion on ban lists and dominant decks at this point is kind of speculative as we don't know how ragnarok will change things next week. (We know how the ocg ran with it but we have cards they don't which changes a lot of things.)
I have heard a LOT of people saying that they expect monster reborn and Dark hole to return to the ban list, but it also really depends on what other new cards come out between now and then
