Hasn't played enough miracles.
Sounds like they should ban Delver, TNN and Griselbrand etc.
Because he wants to reinstate a red counterspell engine and ban the blue one, least thats how I read it (ban Counterbalance, unban Top).
Modern can be a real **** format for playing "fair dudes and removal". Really only Standard/Limited cater to such an approach.
I think the desire is to play "super-powered fair dudes and...
They were banned for different reasons there than for legacy; in legacy, the primary motivator for the ban was its utility in a specific deck, namely miracles, which happens to be a deck that...

Decks that aren't currently playing careful study probably don't want a "free" version, with the obvious exception of decks that really like untappy effects (spring tide!). Storm might play it, but...
One small point of contention: Ponder/Legends Miracles are Control/Prison, which is a put-off to some players who prefer their control to lean in the direction of anything-but-prison. Granted,...

Miracles...
Brainstorm should be banned to make Thoughtseize better #ontopic
There are plenty of ways and decks that hate on combo that do not involve blue (chalice bitching, anyone?). This is aside from ponder and preordain actually being very good cards that would still...
