Fixed that for you.
I doubt they will touch anything in Legacy. Gaea's Cradle and Mox Opal didn't blow everything apart with the new legend rule, and Jace still does exactly the same thing he's always done with the...
This year alone:

Actually MUD and Pox (both Mono-B and Bg) each put up pretty significant numbers in the months leading up to the printing of Griselbrand.
It did. *opens up umbrella*
So the theoretical nightmare scenario of Show and Tell/Omniscience/Griselbrand decks is happening right now at the SCG Open.
Brace yourselves for incoming shitstorm.
Griselbrand and Show and Tell are still a problem. Just because something isn't winning doesn't mean it isn't drastically warping the format. Just the mere existence of Dredge should tell you that....
Omniscience 7UUU
Enchantment (Mythic Rare)
You may cast nonland cards from your hand without paying their mana costs.
Can we please ban Show and Tell now?
Land Tax unbanned. In other news, the format is still terrible until something knocks RUG off its throne that doesn't lose to Griselbrand.
Let's not kid ourselves. They are probably both going down if they are going to pull the trigger.
The SCG Invitational is not a valid metric by which to measure Legacy'y health. Remember the tournament is half Standard, and they don't separate the decklists by best performance per format - it's...

RUG Delver has been a known entity longer than Maverick has, and yet it still dominating by a very wide margin. Obviously there...
Remember, kids, you haven't won the argument until you have pointed out any and all spelling errors.
That, and the fact that I actually play Earthcraft on a pretty regular basis in EDH and have come to realize that I win every single time it resolves, often on the spot, with or without Squirrel...
I have a sneaking suspicion that WotC are going to troll us all by banning a lot of shit. Whether it needs to be or not is another thing entirely, but here's where I think we'll end up:
Out-...
Consultation is a ridiculous card that should never see the light of day. For every person using it to innocently tutor up removal or threats in their aggrocontrol deck, there will be twenty people...
This. Show and Tell -> Griselbrand is no more combo than Dark Ritual -> Hypnotic Specter.
Obviously Island needs to be banned. The winning Belcher list had a whopping FIFTEEN of them in his sideboard!

I think this deck is the end of Show and Tell.
omg you guise SnT doesn't even do anything without a creater why would you ban something that needs a creater does you wants only the bad cards left for leagcy? i mean what a fack????
It would appear that Delver is still the elephant in the room. I mean, it's just a guy, right? But it is still wrecking every tournament, and the decks that are supposed to beat up on blue decks...
Yes. It is. And this is coming from someone who played the fuck out of it the entire time it was legal.
Survival can come off with Vengevine still legal when every color has an amazing card that...
It wasn't on Twitter AFAIK. One of the guys at the WotC booth at PAX East said the red Miracle card would likely be banned in Legacy before it got out of hand.
This whole set is stupid on multiple levels. It reminds me of powered-up versions of all the obnoxiously good cards from Mirage, Tempest, and Urza's Saga blocks. I wouldn't be surprised if they have...
