Decent read, I don't necessarily agree though. Also we all agree mass unbannings aren't happening WotC just doesn't do it anymore, they peel one at a time. What you are proposing is to essentially...

Because the cards that were unbanned aren't good or are no better than other cards, Nacatyl is a 3/3 in a format where Lightning Bolt is the best card, where even the 'storm' decks play Lightning...

@LordSeth

This is what I've been pissing in the wind about. If I'm just randomly dead to shift or twin on turn 4, or even the nut pod draw into resto jiki then why are other turn 4-5 combo cards...

Bloom is an interesting card for Tezzeret and other applications ... I'm glad they banned the narrow card. Nobody was using Second Sunrise to come back from Wrath or anything.

I base it on 29 out of 30 magic players who play magic at real stores at real weeklies not wanting to deal with playing against (or playing with) the egg deck because it's fucking miserable. I guess...

I mean that a deck that at no point has to enter combat discards 1/3 of magics rules, a deck that doesn't interact at all with its opponent (through targeted discard ... you know Duress,...

"skilled Eggs pilots" (lol) and egg zealots are just pissing into the wind at this point ... it's wotc's eternal format for standard 'graduates'

- the deck wasn't skill intensive, it required some...

Sure, that's what I was saying. But with limited cards sifting and tutors in Modern you either have your hate or you don't when you fanned your opener. I also ran many of the cards you mentioned ......

I mean ... why drive out? Why play face to face magic ($$$ tourney aside where $ is the obvious motivation) and play eggs. I draw my hate and crush you or we sit for 30 minutes. Go home and fucking...

If you thought this deck was fun and interesting you are either lying or autistic. The problem, in addition, to the time constraints was the rules minutia one had to resort to if you were trying to...

Well at least now the tempo oriented meta can adjust to the durdling by leveraging synergistic flex-slots and becoming more midrange than aggro.

I mean what if some miserable pile like the Second Sunrise deck wins a GP? Why not unban some cards ... or are they waiting for the format to just become a combination of

Wow. Nice format. 4 mana creature is banned. 3 mana dark ritual is banned. Tarmogoyf wasn't banned why? Oh that's right because it's the key selling point of your $7.00 a pack reprint set. Modern is...

... or you shoot your own grim lavamancer ... it's not like they even tried to let modern dredge get rolling; they must know something about these last 2 sets of the block.

The biggest problem now is that there aren't enough IRL tournaments being played and attended to "give" the format some new decks. 90% of the folks that show up are just copying whatever they find...
