No, but it certainly won't leave a good impression for the customers if one of the main selling points of one of their most recent sets gets banned (again) within 6 months after its release. And it...

If they will really ban Daze I seriously expect this format to become pretty much like Modern but only a lot worse. You would then have an extremely high powerlevel (a lot higher than Modern) with...

People are lobbying heavily to get Daze banned, what do you think?

I argue that the format hasn't had chance to even remotely settle from the bans of last year because the last 2 or 3 sets have all been extraordinarily impactful on the format and the matter of what...

Shaman and Probe ban has made me more optimistic in that regard inasmuch as it indicates that they still care about the format and haven't completely left it to itself yet. Going as far as banning...

Brainstorm.

Where's all the salt at though? I'm surprised that are aren't more complaints/rants from people who got hit by these pretty unexpected bans. It made former Miracles players go bananas too when SDT...

This is truly shocking. I would have never expected them to ban both cards at the same time. Although I unconditionally support the Probe ban I'm not sure what to think of the DRS ban yet because...

Why overcomplicate things then the actual state of affairs is so blatantly obvious? BS, Probe, Ponder are all broken beyond repair and need to be removed from the format asap.

Many people seem to forget that Maverick originated and also peaked during the Mental Misstep era which was when you could actually get away with midrange creature decks with little disruption...

They need to go back in time and ban everything that has had significant impact on the format from late 2011 on till today, except maybe Abrupt Decay.

I wonder if people who complain about Zoo being outdated have actually tested it in the post-Miracles environment or if they are simply repeating old "wisdom". I can not imagine that attacking with a...

Assuming it is legit the second twitter screenshot from a few posts above is even more disheartening than the brainstorm thing. It's basically a concession that they've given up on eternal...

I find it more concerning that Wizards apparently adopted the concept of "pillar of formats" (which basically originated from various internet platforms of the MtG community) as a tool to handle the...

We have already established a few pages back that certain blue cards are much more banworthy than DRS but since those said cards constitute the format's identity to a great extent they are basically...

I like how this thread gets so much attention now that the next B&R announcements are approaching quickly. It appears almost as if people were trying to shape public opinion on these matters....

The 'they will never ban Brainstorm' argument is just as unfounded though or has there ever been such an official statement from Wizards? The ban of Top was completely unexpected also and the card...

It's indeed ridiculous how DRS has been discussed as the primary ban candidate recently while cards that are much more banworthy like Gitaxian Probe aren't even problematized by the majority. I would...

It's understandable since Tarmogoyf used to do exactly what cards like Deathrite do know, i.e. they completely invalidate certain cards and strategies that were popular and playable before which...

No one is arguing for a ban of FoW, Daze, Pierce or whatever. The point is that banning brainstorm could be a first step to create parity between the colors in terms of card selection and randomness...

The fact that Wizards has dedicated the introduction of fetchlands an own spot in their recent timeline of magic due to the upcoming M25 set imo suggests that they are well aware that these lands...

Yes, it is obviously not done with just exchanging a few slots with cards that could handle TNN theoretically. Instead you might have to make bigger concessions and play strategies that these blue...

Why don't you adapt your removal to it then (Edicts etc.) or try to circumvent it's flaws and weaknesses (Toughness 1?) by using trampling creatures or something like Loxodon Warhammer (don't forget...

Honestly I've never seen the alleged broken potential of Library of Alexendria, in fact I'd rather classify it as jank by today's standards and doubt it would see much play if it was legal....

The biggest issue is that people seemingly haven't noticed that all this (un)banning discussion is pretty much pointless as Wizards has clearly abandoned Legacy long ago.
