Re: [SCD] Sol Ring
People are confusing being one of the most played cards with being one of the most powerful. Sol Ring is colorless and universally powerful, but it's not by any stretch one of the most powerful cards. This just is not true.

Re: [SCD] Flash
The idea of banning for cEDH seems nice, but its a fool's errand.
