Banned and Restricted Update, October 12th 2020

12 Oct

by MTGStocks

After the banning of Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath most people predicted that Wizards has banned one of the cards that indeed appear in the Omnath decks, but would not stop Omnath from being dominant. Wizards said that whey would keep an eye on the metagame, and they announced this B&R Announcement. In the Grand Finals 2020 of last weekend we have seen Omnath being almost 72% of the metagame, making the card more dominant than Oko was.

However, there are a few cards receiving bans that not everyone saw coming.

Standard

Omnath, Locus of Creation is banned
Lucky Clover is banned
Escape to the Wilds is banned

Historic

Omnath, Locus of Creation is suspended
Teferi, Time Raveler is banned
Wilderness Reclamation is banned
Burning-Tree Emissary is unsuspended

Brawl

Omnath, Locus of Creation is banned

These changes will be effective from October 12th 2020.

For the official explanation, refer to the official announcement by WotC.

Based on these changes, what cards do you think we'll see on the top of the Interests?

Omnath, Locus of Creation

Lucky Clover

Escape to the Wilds

Teferi, Time Raveler

Wilderness Reclamation

Burning-Tree Emissary

Yearly Winners 2022: Top Winners and Losers (Part 1)

Dec 31, 2022

2022 has been a busy year for Magic and especially the collectors. The market was flooded by Wizards of the Coast with new product. There have been, among others, four main sets, each having their own commander product, several Universes Beyond sets, Dominaria Remastered, Unfinity, and 70 Secret Lairs. Plenty of new cards hit the market. According to some calculations, almost 15% of all card variations were printed in 2022, and 25% of all commanders in existence were printed this year. Plenty of stuff to look back on!
