Hey, this doesn't say that Surival will be banned in Legacy. It is just an announcement of the banned list with a picture of SotF. It could just mean that Surival is being restricted in Vintage.
But seriously, it would be funny if people click on that picture Monday morning after selling their Survivals and it says: Legacy: No changes.
Is that a legitimate image, or did someone make it just for lols?
I really want that to happen. No changes would be an amazing thing on the part of the DCI, as it'd finally prove that either they really care for the format and not just asleep at the wheel, or they're literally asleep at the wheel and haven't looked at tournament results for six months.

I seem to recall EVERY B&R announcement using an image of Survival. I'll have to look into this a bit.
Great. I spent $700 on Ebay putting together a deck designed with the current field in mind and I've got reservations at a hotel in KC for the next SCG in a few weeks. Now instead of being well-positioned against the meta, I'm going to spend all day getting my head caved in by Fish. We'll just call this 2 wasted days of vacation and a $1000 lesson in why I quit this game in the first place.
I can't say so with 100% certainty, but I think you might be right. I'm pretty sure the Survival art is always used for these DCI announcements.Quote:

At the very worst, the rest of your deck is probably still worth a lot, since the UG/GW Survival variants are full of other cards useful for Legacy. If banned, Survival could possibly sell for about $20 a pop to EDH players.Quote:

Can someone find one from an announcement where nothing changed?
If Survival isn't banned, they're has to be at least 1 dude out of the thousands that sold off their Survival playset for rock-bottom prices who is going to go postal at Wizard's HQ.
I'm still waiting for

"Legacy: Tropical Island is banned."
Was Frantic Search banned at that B/R? I doubt so since MTutor was banned during Sep 2010 and FSearch was already banned.Quote:

Even though I sold off my Survivals, I'll happily rebuy them and play Survival 'til the day I die.Quote:

Frantic search has been banned since the formats' introduction as legacy. They unrestricted it in vintage on Sept. 20th. And it did nothing there to my knowledge since tolarian academy is restricted hardcore there.
More to the point though last banned/restricted announcement unbanned the card that was in the picture, this time the picture is of Survival. Since they obviously know about the implications of posting a picture of Survival on the announcement and then not actually banning it (infinite nerd rage) I'd have to say we'll be getting the format from 4 months ago as a Christmas present from Wizards. Hopefully they'll give us a new card or 2 to play with though.Quote:

Now this is pretty much amazing.
Ok, I had to look it up because I'm not much of a comic book guy, but from spending countless hours in comic book stores playing Magic I knew that was a take on an old cover.Quote:
