Did the Banned List Announcement COME TOO EARLY?
Zac wonders if Legacy just needs its own timeline for B&R announcements. In the last couple of years Legacy has been experiencing an influx of cards on the same level with Standard thanks to the increased product cycle of EDH products that skip over Modern/Pioneer/Standard. The hosts discuss the dominance of the Scaminator deck in Legacy and the need for a separate banlist announcement for the format. They explore the concept of sacred cows in Legacy and the cycle of banning symptoms rather than addressing the root causes. The hosts also discuss the challenges of learning to beat top decks and the frustration of constant rotation in the format. They suggest the need for explicit discussions about sacred cows and the importance of format curation. The conversation concludes with predictions about future bans and the impact of Universes Beyond cards.
Takeaways
Legacy needs a separate banlist announcement that focuses solely on the format's needs.
The format's sacred cows, such as Days and Ancient Tomb, should be reevaluated to address the root causes of format health issues.
The constant rotation of top decks and the reliance on transgressive cards create a frustrating and unenjoyable play experience.
Clear communication from Wizards of the Coast about the format's direction and intentions is crucial for the community.
Starting fresh with a new format or addressing the root causes of format issues can lead to a healthier and more enjoyable Legacy experience.
