The obvious solution is to ban everything that defines the current format. Ban Goyf so we can play Werebear again, ban Ragavan so Red can suck again, ban every Black card that has targeted discard so...

Yeah, Brawl being EDH's kid brother format, it's going to attract a lot of that "I was told I could have fun *my way*, which means I win 90% of the time with my trash tier decks inspired by Tool...

Doesn't that just punish people that get garbage matchups? Why should I be forced to play it out against every Golos deck I see when I'm playing little kid shit? (I rarely scoop, unless I'm like...

I don't think Historic Brawl is ranked, is it? So of course that's a feature not a bug. Why should you be penalized for conceding casual games? The "penalty" is that your W/L ratio does nothing to...

Leaving product hype up to content creators is a super risky move imho, unless those creators are expressly on Hasbro's dime they'll be reviewing the product as individuals instead of in lock-step...

Well every group gets their jabs in from time to time. Some people took it personally that Deicide came out in a set timed near Easter, 100 years ago parents were worried that a game with references...

Arrogant Wurm, obviously

Well that can't be true, since they all just swore off Legacy until the Reprint List is burned to a crisp. /s

Do these even have a home outside of Standard? Vehicles look like such ass, but tbh I've never played one

Well,

Did you not know? Post quality is measured in the same way as DPS.

Oh no, I'll totally argue that as a hyperbole-binge. You can definitely break down a ton of matchups involving the standard Blue engine to "sculpt your hand, resolve your threat, and stick it." I am...

I think the point is more that the 'blue CA engine' is more defining or more relevant than the archetype(s) they support.

To go way out on a limb, if there were a hypothetical Horrible Future...

What's going to be sweet is when the metagame metagames the metagame and a bunch of 8-Blast decks go up against like Junk and have nothing to shoot at.

What would you unban that (a) powers up the format (b) doesn't go in a deck with BS/FoW/Ponder + fetches? I mean I miss SotF too but it isn't like it never got played with Tropicals.

I don't think...

Dang, can we kill TNN without killing every x/1 though? Also never works in multiples, though maybe that's intended?

As long as both players get the same pieces in the same amounts, and they do not go overboard in their range of motion or require something foolish like multiple captures to remove, Chess players...

I think a lot of decks would be thrilled to improve their card quality 'for free', sure. Having two cards in hand, then choosing 2 from the best of 4, and then untapping for another potential effect...

It doesn't have to be High Tide necessarily, just any deck that has a propensity for digging through cards, throwing them in the bin, and being totally okay with untapping three land. Which is...

Yes, any card that lets you draw cards as well as untap is just begging for a Storm-based deck to adopt it. I think it is a really neat effect but I also think it is dangerous as hell.

If the only decks that it enabled were Madness and Spring Tide I would be all for it. Sadly this is not the case :/

Obviously a card should be banned when it shows up in a demonstrably infinite number of decks.

That's just common sense.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you here, but which tools exist in which colors and at what level of playability is basically a fundamental indicator of whether or not the game is balanced.

It is...

Precisely.

As others posted, the game is made of cards. Blue manipulates cards more fundamentally than any color; it goes beyond 'Bolt your Pridemage' interactions. It draws cards, it filters...

Dude whatever, I want Frantic Search legal because I can go back to casting my favorite 4/4 Trampler for 2G EOT. Oh whatever okay it's better in combo lolol shhhh stfu
