even though I'm pretty happy with the decision to not ban anything today, I would have liked to have seen an unban. But I guess the format is pretty diverse now, so why mess with it It's not exactly "mess with it" more so than "damn this is annoying" I can see the logic wizards ...

My prediction for tomorrow

Ban Lurrus of the Dream-Den/All Companions cannot be played as Companions in Competitive formats anymore, Ban Sigarda's Aid

Potential Unbans - Punishing Fire, Original Artifact Lands (If they choose to ban Urza's Saga)

If I were in the position of power, based off of my experience through online grinding and all the results I've come across mixed in with my emotion just simply watching some games I would make the following changes to Modern: Ban - Sigarda's Aid & All companions Unban - None at this time JFC, ...

Played in a Local 1k with 60 participants and the Calgary F2F with 127 participants, the top 8 is being submitted as I am typing this.

Well it finally happened, the banning I've clamoured for on forums for years. Mox Opal is finally done. Coming from a long standing affinity player - thank god Wizards finally did something correct. The truth is, with Mox Opal being banned, we can finally look towards Simian Spirit Guide as the only...

Wrenn and Six seems to cover those bases that the old Standard combination of Cunning Sparkmage and Basilisk Collar would provide, meanwhile giving the deck a new angle with Knight of the Reliquary.
