The banned/restricted lists are in the appropriate sections. Apparently they are still accurate minus {Land Tax}.

Surprise surprise!  {Snapcaster Mage} continues to be legal. 😱

In the article, it is said that a lot of people run delver, but not as many actually win with it. Also it says that m13 doesn't have a lot of delver love. So people will be hopping off the delver bandwagon soon enough.

Until then, listen to jester and run {Gut Shot}! ;)

Sounds like they banned {griselbrand} in commander.  That makes me a sad panda.  {Sundering Titan} too, I'm fine with (boo land hate)
Title: Re: Ban List
Post by: scarsabrex on June 20, 2012, 04:46:28 PM
their is a bit of a flaw in their statement though. w/u delver might have the highest representation right now as far as decks go and have a fair chance against non delver decks. but delver and snapcaster have found their way into u/r delver and rug delver as well. just because the decks are evenly matched does not mean the card is fair in a format.

I am actually really upset with this.. I don't see him as broken (then again I haven't used or played against him) I see him as a high cost big flying thing with a pretty cool ability

What seems silly to me is that with the helvault opening event, oversized commander cards were inside for Avacyn, Griselbrand, and the "powerpuff" angels, pretty much announcing to everyone "HEY! Use the 5 for commander!" And they ban one already (take a wild guess which one of the 5 I picked from the vault...sigh)

I quit playing magic when mirrodin came out and came back to magic when scars was in standard, what a coincidence eh? I absolutely hated how they made artifacts the main thing in mirrodin. I am excited for RTR, because all of the great thing I heard about ravnica

It's not just those decks, there's Naya pod, zombie pod, different zombie builds, Solarflare, UW midrange, UW control, and RG aggro in the meta as well

Mirrodin was always about the artifacts. Look at the first mirrodin. It's an artifact block.

I was hoping the ban list would freshen up the meta a little bit. Oh well. I guess that isn't the role of the ban list

I don't see this on the B&R list for Commander.
