You think a 2 mana Mind-Wrathaggedon is good for the format? Yeah I don't think people understand Balance ITT.

Balance is so broken it even belongs in Storm Burning Wish boards for the LED+Wish->Balance reset the game blowouts. I'd hate to think about a control deck built around Balance since it doesn't nuke...
Actually I remember Land Tax being a long running joke and it seemed like 90% of the people on the forum understood it was never close to being OP in Legacy.
Frantic Search is pretty damn good...
Anyone who complains Mana Leak is too powerful is an idiot. This includes Wizards. Oh a Standard deck has Hexproof creatures and we didn't realize Hexproof is about 10x better than Shroud so it's...
Tell that to Caleb.
It was played by Reid Duke who top 8'd Vintage World Champs the same day.
Edit - 11-11-13
In before "OMG 10 copies of TNN in SCG top 8 ban Nemesis!"
Yeah people have been sleeping on S&T lately. It's not the monster banworthy deck people made it out to be when Griz dropped but the deck is still real. Ignoring it is comparable to what ignoring...
You can't be quoting that right. Those are the two main situations where it is outclassed by other cards.
It's never too soon to complain about a card no one has ever played, this is the Source.
The draw condition is pretty easy considering if the Dragon deck has a non-dragon creature in the yard it's going to be a wincon and the only way they have of putting creatures in your yard is...
Well if Legacy is the baseline for a wide open format nothing is ever going to compare. Legacy is so wide open sometimes people complain on these boards that they wish the meta was more defined...
More to the point for the purpose of that website any deck with Workshops = MUD and any deck with Jace = Jace Control and any deck with dudes = fish. There are at least 4 flavors of MUD, more Jace...
Vintage is actually pretty diverse believe it or not.
1: There was 2 schools of thought on Misstep for Zoo. One ran Missteps the other didn't. The version that ran Misstep seemed to perform better IMO (but they both kind of sucked overall compared to...
I'm glad I don't live in a world where Mystical Tutor EOT for a 1x Terminus is a legit sideboard option for a combo deck, but maybe that's just me. There were legit reasons to ban MT back then...
Yeah I still say Mystical Tutor was the right card banned for the wrong reasons. There were legit reasons to ban it at the time and of course with the foresight WOTC had to see miracles coming I...
Not at all actually, the Dark rits have a function in the deck outside of getting Bargain into play while the cards you use to cheat in GBrand almost exclusively cheat him (or another fatty) into...
One mana difference can mean everything to combo decks. I still think Windfall is too strong. Granted sometimes it isn't optimal, but when it's on it's on in a big way.
I mean it doesn't add...
What would we do without you...
Just stop while you are way way way behind, seriously.
WotC has actually shown they are very conservative with banning cards which is a good thing. I think they have done a much better job at maintaining the Legacy banned list than anyone will give them...
I think you'd be wrong. The only decks I'd put Vice in would be Prison, Stasis, or possibly some kind of old school Prosperity combo deck (similar to what got Vice Restricted in Vintage back in the...
Can we just copy and paste the ten pages where this was discussed at length or do we have to go through this again?
Basically Oath is just way too good AND it is a combo that completely fits in...
Nothing is interesting about a meta full of decks with the same broken artifact.
Playing Skullclamp in Standard when Mirrodin block wasn't even fully formed doesn't even begin to get at it's real power level. You obviously don't grasp the power of clamp. You aren't "throwing...
