They SAY that they'll never have another Modern Horizons set again... until the money dries up and they try scrounging for more money again, as if they aren't hurting for money already.
As someone who hates The One Ring and is a Yu-Gi-Oh player who _did_ want it banned... I honestly think they should've just said "fuck it, we're doing limits in other formats now." Like, yeah you can tutor it out and its breaking precedent, but having to build your deck in a way that let's you search a one of means an innate choke point you're opening yourself up to, and they already actively invalidate entire planes/cards based on "muh cultural insensitivity" and don't keep the promises they make *cough* -universes beyond- *cough*. Like, they clearly don't have the integrity they would claim they do.
I saw Twin unban and was waiting for your response. They traded one cracked card for 4 cracked cards. Looting unbanned bc it’s in Innistrad Remastered, trying to push sales.
Oh yeah, I was surprised to not see Lurrus on the vintage ban list six weeks ago. It was four years ago when it was banned there. But I look up how it got unban. You can thank Oko for that. That was back in 2021 and yet wizards never made a huge announcement about it. Why are we not surprised.
First time I’ve watched a magic video in a while. This is why I play commander and not my modern dredge deck (the deck was meant for fun not for power, just liked the mechanic and story with it). Modern is just overrun by broken garbage and in commander we just housebanned smothering tithe and rhystic study
What's funny is that there are some echo chamber redditors that truly believe arena has never been better and has the most people playing ever. Wrong on both counts 😂
Twin is hot steaming garbage... its by far the least impactful card they unbanned... and whats up with the control vs blitz comment? Does my guy accutually play magic? Standard has like 1.5 good control decks, pioneer has 1, and modern has 0. Its a midrange rock throwing contest in most formats.
I (used to) like Modern. I haven’t even played casually for a couple years now. I got into Modern in the first place so I didn’t have to constantly buy completely new decks, as in Standard. But with Modern Horizons it just got too ridiculous trying to keep up. Modern became a rotating format with MH. With power creep, you just couldn’t use the cards you had before.
Blood moon keeps the greedy mana bases in checks, just like the new merfolk. Twin combo was thrown into energy. looting idk..i missed it but i dont see it getting hit without hogaak
Why is there a symbol included in the card text in the name of “the one ring” ? Edit: What is the story behind the “art” for the card at 15:54 ?…..I have never seen so many kinds of awful at the same time.
I think pepe are sleeping on how good it is that jegantha is gone. Like twin is unbanned bur companion is such a slap in the face to magic its a horrible horrible card. Everyone hates companion but i still think its underhated. Its a mechanic that fucks with the games initial balance. Like imagine if someone can just start with 1 mana at the beggining for free it screws with the balance of the entire game

The best ban would be ban Chris Cox , Aaron , and Mark from all hasbro or affiliate buildings .

Splinter twin ain’t that bad the other three are just silly though
Having multiple copies of the ONE ring seemed dumb in the first place. I don't even think WOTC reads their cards.
Literally agreed with everything you said. The updated meta is UB Oculus at 16%, belcher 13, goryos 9 and storm 8. Get ready for combo. Subscribed
Finally, someone remembers + gets it
as an artifact player, even I think mox opal should be banned

lurrus was unbanned in vintage when they changed companions

The irony in your state of how WotC ruined the format and waited until the chased all their customers away before trying to fix it, is overwhelming…
at least the one ring is banned so thats good.
No changes to Standard is absolutely wild.
Standard is fine. As much as I hate certain cards, (Sheltered by Ghosts), there's nothing so strong or oppressive that it needs a ban.
People are still brewing Foundations. Way too early..
Do we get Tibalt's Trickery back?
Nextbwe need deathrite shaman and pod unbanned
The Vexxing Bauble ban is hilarious. The ENTIRETY of Legacy hinges on the fact that decks can free counter. What a stupendous L.
What's funny is that there are some echo chamber redditors that truly believe arena has never been better and has the most people playing ever.
Wrong on both counts 😂
I thought the whole argument against green sun was they didnt want green sun for 0 grabbing dryad arbor.
GSZ is a 1-mana land ramp with dryad arbor, but I guess even that is underpowered now.

PHOENIX FTW 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Unexpected? Aspiring Spike pretty much predicted this exactly.
I believe they unbanned Lurrus in vintage sometime after they changed companions to having that 3 mana tax to add to your hand.

What modern decks do you like?
Every single one I've ever built
@@DesolatorMagic do you like any that you didn't build?
Wasn't Vexing Bauble for Legacy?
Boros Energy just got stronger.
@@Vapor454 how???
Leyline of the guilds needs banned in pioneer
Hope y'all bought mox opals for your commander decks when it was 40$. It's now 100$

the little A is arena only i believe. it's how they mark erated cards
Whats wrong with Legacy and Vintage? Theyre quite fun.
as an affinity player im happy
Bye bye ring 🫡
Ouch I should have sold my rings. But we all knew...🤣
Wait, you think people are just playing commander to have fun? You have no idea how toxic competitive the commander base is in my town.
Splinter twin not playable anymore
Deathrite, free him . . . .
Does des like any deck or is he just 100% negative about everything magic?
It might just be because FUCK WOTC
Commander players lament.
You always have to build and play around the meta
I think pepe are sleeping on how good it is that jegantha is gone. Like twin is unbanned bur companion is such a slap in the face to magic its a horrible horrible card.

RIP modern, you boring, lame ass format. Long Live Commander.
I thought you were fooling us again with your wishlist bans hoolyyy they actually finally banned one ring
Awe poor posty lol
is this an early april fools or did wotc finally remove their heads from their butts some?
Da hell?
the one ring is literally the most dominant card ever...
one ring....to rule them all.
