But seriously, when is Brainstorm getting banned?
Was that "Um..." for me? What am I missing? Where can I find the TR you mentioned?Quote:

Actually banning brainstorm and remove mentor and banning ritual could be a solution to let the format shift.Quote:

They also think the same thing about Elves.
The problem of course being that if Storm's whole plan is "lol I'll stall the game by Twisting you for 3!" or "I'll Twist them before using Tendrils" when they could have just won instead, or used therapy post AN; is not functional. Similarly, Elves could generate 4 mana and "lol 3-for-1'd ya!!" but they could've instead just NO'd you for the win; meaning that all they did was make the deck worse. It could replace Glimpse I guess.. but probably not. They may even say "lol but what about Tezz or MUD!?"
To which I say "why would you add Discard spells to a deck that is made to lock you out of the game?"

I was being cute with my post. Others seemed to get it. It did not seem like that much of a stretch that it would be understood. Doubly so once you work out that its not a username on the site. Not that it matters, you and I did liven up a shitty thread for a day or so. Thanks for that.Quote:

Is there something unbannable to make mono white lantern control viable? Like can we get balance? World can't get much worse than it already got anyway.
I second that. Just do it and put the format to its deserved restQuote:

Contract from Below
"Remove Contract from Below from your deck before playing if you're not playing for ante.
Discard your hand, ante the top card of your library, then draw seven cards."
