My thought is that if your opponent assembles the durdletron of Bridge+Lantern+Mill Artifact+Welding Jar/Spellskite+whatever they use to kill you with, they deserve their win and sometimes you have...

They generally don't. And that's why lodestone golem was the first creature restricted in a long long time in vintage. I don't know about modern, but this is a format after all that banned Wild...

Shatter storm. Creeping Corrosion. Fracturing Gust. Whatever. Artifacts have a million ways to be destroyed. I don't understand why anyone ever complains about artifacts

Edit: Hurkylls Recall

To those worried about ensnaring bridge and such, do you know the card ancient grudge?

I liked the theoretical hate bear that someone made up of "players can't cast spells with a mana cost greater than the number of lands they control"

tectonic edge without the 4 land clause? Or maybe with like a serra avenger clause.

That's one thing I've noticed with modern. Bans generally haven't really made more decks appear. They have just made certain decks disappear and maybe a slight shift in the meta

Why does no-one outside of pod main board any disenchant effects? The only decks they seem bad against are the GB AND the URW decks. Otherwise against most things they have some juicy targets, like...

Even if that were the case, I don't see the problem. What's the issue with weird rogue strategies actually being playable? Like how is it possibly a bad thing if I can slap together a combination...

The difference is that legacy has had a much longer time tto figure out what works and what doesn't. Modern has a few cards that, while strong, have very strong arguments to being legal. Plus it...

I mean, god forbid someone who is a legacy player also want to play modern and improve the format by suggesting unbanning things that are probably fine

Was Green SUn banned alone? I forget. I think it was banned alone, then PFire and Nacatl were banned together right?

I'm not saying that snap caster is too powerful, just pointing out that bolt plus a snappy is (obviously) really difficult for a deck trying to win with small dudes to overcome

Card seems very powerful now that DRS is out of the format. I can't see very many creature decks (Zoo) being able to beat a hand where you have a Bolt and a Snapcaster. Or a path or something.

Plus snapcaster is still Ambush Viper fwiw.

I believe that they do listen to the overall gripe and listen to what the more well known players have to say and such. Especially considering a lot of the time pros basically just reiterate what...

A lot of recent articles on unbanning, which I would be perfectly fine with, but I think it may be too late. I'm sure WOTC already has figured out by now if they want to unban something or not.

I feel like the UWx decks are decently well rounded or at least can be made to be well rounded.

I mean by that logic that you used in your last sentence there, why should we even have this thread if we don't call the shots?

So BG with all around good match ups is fine but blue isn't?

I just don't buy into the assumption that unbanning a card next month could result in a possibly volatile meta in 5 months. Sure there aren't large tournaments, but there are still modern locals,...

Are you implying that the unbanning of a card will make the format unstable? Aren't there also two set releases before the PT season as well? Are we just assuming that those sets will have...

Oh man. What will people do if the internet is unable to tell them what deck to play!

Please unban preordain. I found 20 in a box earlier in the week and put them aside

It is a large percent of the meta but its not like it was dominant. They basically are just showing how much they hate the storm mechanic. They are attempting to destroy it without just blatantly...
