Every time I see "no changes," I kind of get a sinking feeling a little bit. I like seeing things shaken up, especially in Legacy where it's rare you get an unbanning.

I argue that the format hasn't had chance to even remotely settle from the bans of last year because the last 2 or 3 sets have all been extraordinarily impactful on the format and the matter of what is good or maybe even too good isn't even close to being answered yet. We will have to see how Karn, Dreadhorde Arcanist and Narset change the format in the long run. My suspicion that one of these cards will reach a point of power that's inacceptable at some point in the near future similiarly to DRS. Karn's absurdity has been widely recognized but my impression is that the brokenness of Arcanist isn't fully appreciated. It's capable of pulling of stuff it's most certainly not meant to do with all the 0CMC spells like Vision etc. and I expect this to become a problem at some point. Narset on the other hand has got an effect which should have never been printed on a CC3 card which is so easy to cast. I think people will eventually get severly upset about one or more of these cards and that they could therefore suffer a similiar fate as DRS once the meta has settled.

I was thinking about this. Brainstorm and Legacy. Now while I know that the idea here is that shit needs somewhere to live. Transgressive cards, blah blah. I do not think Brainstorm will get banned ever in the format, its just too much a part of Legacy, good or ill. I want that in plain English. I am past fighting over this card.
That said, Pauper is now a sanctioned format. Brainstorm is legal and if the stated reason for having the card is that transgressive things need a place to live, well Legacy is not the only game in town now. Not that I expect that it will change anything, but its an interesting thought.
Edit:
Just for clarification as to wtf I am talking about.

No changes for Legacy, Bride from Below banned in Modern.
