Monday Night Magic: #674 - An Elk-Free Standard

The banhammer has hit Standard! And Brawl! And Legacy! And even Vintage! But...not Pioneer? Hopefully Standard will be back to something that isn't absolutely terrible now that Oko and company are gone. We've got plenty of B&R to discuss, followed by a few other bits of news. After that we're covering the recent Arena news regarding Historic and "remastered" old sets. Then we're off to tournament results, with our first look at Pioneer thanks to the SCG Invitational.

And finally, we're ending on a new entry into What's An EV? Chewie was gifted a Throne of Eldraine Gift Edition for this purpose, so he's gonna be opening it up over the next few episodes. First up, five of the ten draft boosters!
