That's their fault for not playing blue to begin with. What are they? Peasants? Just roll up a random blue stew and get to playing legacy!

Eh - I recognize that it is a Sacred Cow of the Format.

I think banning all fetches and Astrolab (AKA getting rid of perfect multicolored manabases and making BS weaker) and then unbanning DRS (weaker without fetches and providing some decent MD...

Someone on reddit brought up that in Yorion decks this rule makes FOW slightly better by giving it another alternative cost:

It used to be either
- cast force for 0, exile a blue card, pay 1 life...

My thoughts on the change:

Gyruda - makes the deck more vulnerable to disruption (discard) and slows the deck down (either need 9 mana or get it into your hand the turn before). This makes the...

Legendary Creature - Pirate King (M)
When Prescient PirateKing enters the battlefield make a change to the magic rules. That change takes effect next game.

How much would the mechanic have to change for them to unban Lurrus or Zirda?

would this work? "at the beginning of the game shuffle a card back [at random] and put your companion in your hand."...

Yorion: 8
Gyruda: 3
Jegantha: 2

This is a new take I haven't heard before. ETB have been around for a while and not sure even a card like the following is going to stop them.

Yorion is going to be everywhere

Just for "Fun" - what would be the best deck if you can run as many companions as you wanted? Some sort of Lurrus Yorion Zirda nightmare?

Edit - actually, doubt that would work. The best way to...

That was brilliant!

If Lurrus is the price we have to pay for best doggo Isamaru to be playable then so be it.

I think Yorion is the least offensive of the Companions. Even though Miracles seems to be able to run it easily, running an 80 card deck is a not insignificant drawback! Lurrus, Zidra and Jeganatha...

Companions stick around for a couple months and Lurrus and maybe Zirda get banned. The rest will stick around forever.

Just ban the top ten most currently played cards of each set and lets see where we end up with :tongue:
