Hey 70sSnidd, thanks for making yourself heard. You should PM me in game to chat about the B/R list. I am working on a campaign of sorts for this issue. I think we can get some attention if we approach this correctly.

From the above discussion, you guys already saw it, but I want to keep the discussion going. I left a lengthy comment in the awkwardly formatted Facebook-ripoff page, as the Lincoln-head Guest.

Surprised they haven’t banned Wasteland but banned Top, is there any deck that doesn’t run Wasteland in the optimal build?

I can understand banning Mind Twist, but it wasn’t necessary. Black is really hurting in the 100cs metagame now. Survival is in a similar boat to MT, although I was hoping Survival would stay unbanned in 100cs and get axed in Legacy to drop its price so I could play with it. Top is understandable but doesn’t really change much other than opening up 1 slot in most decks and making Future Sight and Trinket Mage worse.

Banning Regrowth is silly. Library doesn’t seem necessary although it possibly could be excellent in some control decks. They should’ve at least given these cards a chance to be played and see how they work out. Fastbond, Wheel, and Mana Vault make sense. If they aren’t gonna print the Power 9, putting out Time Vault on MTGO makes absolutely no sense. The only use the card will see is in infinite turn combos, and that much clicking will be tedious and boring on MTGO.

Like most people, I’m not a huge fan of banning unless individual cards are format warping. I have waited for the Top to be banned by Wizards from the beginning. It is in almost every competitive deck.

Funny enough Zimbardo, the biggest difference between your version of WW and mine, is that it has Top and fetch lands.

It’s no surprise that they banned some of the new cards, but I think it’s simply incredible that they’d feel the need to ADD existing cards to the banned list when we have a good metagame and some of us have repeatedly asked them to REMOVE cards from the list. I’m hugely disappointed by this boneheaded move.

lol @ banning regrowth, seriously? Soooo glad I didn’t buy Survival, it was really tempting me. The only one that really hurts me is Top, since it’s just a comforting card and can help you make it through some rough times. Not really getting the choices at all though.
