Well a lot of the broken fun is gone in EDH now, Rofellos is back to being a banned general, Tolarian Acedemy, Channel, and Staff of Domination got the ban hammer too. Sucks.

I guess Thraximundar loses Academy and Maga loses Staff for me. Oh well....
Channel Emrakul was pretty good online.

Academy, you will be missed. ):
Do you not run Grim Monolith + Power Artifact?
@ Bannings - These are all pretty much welcome, IMO. I'm not so certain Rofellos is quite as busted without Staff of Domination, but he does enable some ridiculously fast plays that seem to go against the spirit of EDH.
Damn,
I had just finished my Roffelos deck as my first real life deck. Very nice, I just traded the Hall of Gemstone I was still missing. Now I love to design new decks, but this pretty much sucks a day after I finally finished trading.
Don't care too much about Channel and Staff. Academy is a shame, but I can live with it.

Welp, there goes my Sen Triplets deck idea.
You can always play Omnath as your mono-green general. He can eat face pretty quickly.
End of turn...Morphling

I'm really glad Rofellos is gone. Everytime one of our EDH group would pull out the deck, we'd have to curb stomp Rofellos until it cost 8 or 10 mana until we could continue with our game as normal. Every once in a while it would go unchecked and bash with Eldrazis. The Rofellos deck didn't even have any infinite combos in it. It just wasn't very fun.
This. Plus, Rofellos is only banned as a general, so you can play Omnath and just have Rofellos in your deck somewhere and it ends up being almost the same.
OH G-D I'M SO GLAD ACADEMY IS GONE.
(it's dumb that we can't do full caps anymore. stupid troopatroop)
The E.P.I.C. Syndicate: I mean, if they play a lullaby for babies they should at least play the Monster Mash when somebody dies.
Yeah. I lose my super big island.
I'm not one to combo out in EDH unless it involves 3+ cards and ridiculous hoops, so I firmly believe that all were deserved, but now my 3 foil Staffs will be awful lonely without a home.
Hasn't been pointed out, but in light of some other bannings, I find this quite hilarious.

I should just stop making decks. I actually have Azami built, and I lose Academy. This makes it harder to combo off. I'm fine with that.
Channel was probably the best card in EDH. 40 life more than enables a win every time. I'm glad I didn't spend any money on a deck that abuses it in real life. I'm working on Karn, and I'm sad to lose Staff of Domination. It wasn't insane, but it did provide some combo action.
This brought a smile to my face.
awesome
Sadly my EDH combo deck is now lost. I probably didn't need to be winning on turn 3 anyway.
BZK! - Storm Boards
Been there, tried that, still casting Doomsday.
Drawing my deck for 0 mana since 2013.
I wonder why they got banned? hrmmmm?
I like the idea of curb stomping Rofellos several time. Literally. So I take it no one wants a Eldrazi ever coming out. Why don't they ban them. I think the very printing of those monstrosities ruins Elder Dragon as well as other formats.
You can't win, you can't break even, you can't get out of the game....
I hear edt's got Jamie Wakefield locked in his basement, and keeps pumping him tapes of fatties getting hit with Wrath of God...
