    I wanted too but the card in question was protected by a Twitter post from Aaron Forsythe.

    I could have swore we have had "leaks" on MTGO that have been fake before. I'm skeptical.

    EDIT: Posted yesterday. Obv fake then.

    The green Devotion lists looked pretty strong so this isn't surprising that they hit a piece of that deck but I wasn't expecting two. Ditto for Felidar Guardian since the CopyCat deck has a pretty...

    As a thought experiment, what cards could be unbanned and make new, powerful decks? I'm omitting the most iconic Vintage cards. The best I could come up with is Tinker, Necropotence, Memory Jar,...

    I can't imagine Dark Depths being banned atm. There just aren't a ton of White decks for a few different reasons and those are the best cards for trying to interact with Turbo Depths. Once you see...

    Is anyone else as excited as I am at the prospect that wizards is thinking of unrestricting NECROPOTENCE(?!?!) in Vintage? That seems fucking nuts. And awesome. Plus, now you can play some broken...

    I'll 2nd (or 3rd) this. For the first time in a long time it would be unwise to make any changes even with obviously unbannable cards. Too many new factors all at once: if something broke it would be...

    I think there are two reason we have these bans: Wizards silence on what cards are sacrosanct and there inability to stop printing dumb blue cards. Outside of a Tweet by Aaron Forsythe on Brainstorm...

    Not even needed since there are only a handful of people that would bother playing the deck. :P It would make me ecstatic though and I'd bust out my Taigas so fast.

    Look, I love Goblins and all but Goblin Recruiter is pretty tame compared to a lot of the stuff in the format already, whether it's FCG or just regular Vial Goblins. Comparing it to Tinker, one of...

    It's worth noting that Survival's backup plan of Vengevine spam is still vulnerable to GY hate. It doesn't really matter if your on Ooze or Vengevine or giant fatty you're still...

    Because Survival has actual costs associated with it.

    3. You don't mind adding the price of a Trained...

    You'd have to replace good cards with Earthcraft and ET and add a 5th color and still find room for basics. That's not good.

    Are you suggesting Earthcraft isn't a safe unban because it takes too long(???) but Time Vault and Balance are maybe OK? Huh?
