    This is flagrantly inaccurate. Go back ten years or so, and you'd find Zoo, Goblins, Merfolk, and at times even Affinity as decks to beat, alongside Storm and Reanimator. This was even true during...

    Can somebody who lives near WOTC put a giant "UNBAN EARTHCRAFT" sign in their parking lot?

    I mean, I started Legacy on system combo decks, the more complex the better. Played a ton of different Storm variants, and High Tide remains my favorite Legacy deck of all time. Nowadays I tend to...

    Does not compute. Chalice and Desire are probably my two favorite magic cards.

    If this was the case, the mono-red variant of Sneak - which plays a lot more Sol Lands - would be actually good. A+B combo requires Brainstorm to function smoothly, and Brainstorm is dependent on...

    We are on the same wavelength my friend. Slide is my #1 wanted reprint in Modern, and would make me want to play that format again.



    Perfect information for no mana has always been broke. I...

    At this point I want either a power-creeped Fallout with "damage can't be prevented" as mentioned earlier, or a Sulfur Elemental for blue. Better yet, both of these cards. I would maindeck both of...

    This about sums it up. Reanimator should have functionally won the game long before it has enough mana to cast Frantic (and plays like 15 lands to boot). Sneak doesn't need shit filtering that is...

    My assumption is that one refers to Shardless BUG while the other refers to the new TNN and Leovold builds that are more like Bant in structure. This could be incorrect though.

    Forget Wasteland, Force of Will always shows up whenever I try to make a game-breaking play. You don't even have to spend mana for that!

    I'm personally interested in playing Twist alongside Cabal Therapy in the Veteran Explorer decks. You typically have 5 or so mana on the third turn, and your deck is so full of bombs than an...

    I find it highly unlikely that anything that only helps blue (tempo or control) will be unbanned. WOTC is aware that it is the runaway favorite for best color in Legacy and anything that strengthens...

    This sums it up in a nutshell. I play a lot of Modern and the format is very spikey - BGx and Twin have always been the primary options for spikes and net-deckers. I'm glad Twin is gone because (a)...

    Shardless is the only tier one deck out of that list, and that matchup has become less unfavorable since the adoption of Monastery Mentor. Lands is strong against novice Miracles players but...

    I don't think unbanning anything would push Enchantress over the top. Earthcraft might give the deck a fighting chance though, which I think is fine.

    While I agree with the sentiment, the DTB hasn't been updated since the end of August. It won't reflect any post-ban shifts for another month I would assume.
