    It's almost like Delver was always a better card.

    I don't have a dog in this fight. Just sayin'.

    Well, it's a good thing they're still ignoring the "problem" card.

    Not like it's in the deck's name, or anything.

    I actually think it's totally fair to compare two "uninteractive" things purely on that basis. As long as you're comparing them purely on that basis.

    I don't really care about most creatures. They...

    This is a bit of a meta question. I'm a little lit, so this may be less coherent than I'd like it to be.

    There's some questionable stuff in that article, but seriously, people need to harden up.

    It doesn't help that the more interesting formats aren't accessible to most people because of an abominable pricing model that's engineered into the game. Standard was fun when I was a kid. Standard...

    I see where you're coming from, but I think you're both underestimating the comparative power of Treasure Cruise and Dig [EDIT: Those are better bans] and overestimating how good it is to get a 5/5 a...

    Take a powerful card, up its power by about 30%, split it into two cards you have to have at the same time to get the full effect, then ban one.

    Perfect.

    Yes; that's what I said. And you're right that the people expressing that sentiment represent the Legacy community, a community of which I'm also proud to be a part.

    Can they just . . . NOT ban three cards at a time and go back to the old mulligan rule? That would fix a lot of things.

    So I guess the question now is whether this'll torpedo all the cards. Is eight mana for a Yorion worth a Yorion?

    EDIT: And did they kill my beloved Gigan?
