@@evilsheepmaster1744 Yeah they were really reluctant to ban cards in that era, even though their future future league KNEW skullclamp was absolutely broken after it got sent to the printers. One person in the FFL started using skullclamp after it got the infamous change to be +1/-1 after it went through multiple different versions like +1/+1 and +1/+0 IIRC before it got changed to -1 toughness and sent to print. After they played some games against the clamp deck soon enough everyone in the FFL were running decks centered around the card. They also thought "maybe people wouldn't figure out it's broken out in the hands of the playerbase" when the FFL was a few dozen people at most while the playerbase was tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of players.

Yea but people didn't realise Skull Clamp was as busted as it is at first. It took a little while for the first guy to accidentally equip it to the wrong token, and then realised he just got a free card draw. So Skull Clamps ban was fast in terms of, like, we realised it was good _AND THEN_ it was immediately banned. It was still around for some weeks before this though. So it doesn't meet the criteria for this list

Objection: Lutri is *not* the only card to be pre-banned. In January 1994, the first banlist was created by the DCI (back before formats were even a thing). On that banlist, all cards that used the Ante mechanic were banned outright. On October 14, 1995, the Homelands expansion set was released, containing Timmerian Fiends - a card that uses the Ante mechanic. And of course, Ante was still banned (and still is to this day) In effect, Timmerian Fiend was pre-banned about 600 daya before it was released.

@@mrziiz6893 it's still in the Comprehensive Rules doc, but it does what it says on the tin. At the start of the game, if Ante is in effect (OFFICIALLY IT NEVER IS) each player removes the top card of their library and puts it into the Ante Zone at the start of the game (before drawing cards). The Ante Zone is a public knowledge zone like the Graveyard or Command Zone, and is in-effect a second exile zone. Cards that interact with Ante can manipulate or add additional cards to the Ante Zone. At the end of a game, whoever wins gains Ownership of all cards in the Ante Zone.

Notably, the rules of Cascade were changed around the release of Tibalt's Trickery. Orginally you could Cascade into either side of the modal Double-faced cards, which meant cheating the more expansive side. And of course part of the banning of various Companions came because originally you could just cast them. They didn't have the "pay 3 to put it in your hand" requirement.

In the context of standard bans though jace and stoneforge took way too long to be banned with a 2 year rotation they didn't get banned until they were set to rotate in a few months. They got banned a week after new phyrexia came out, but it was obvious the only decks would be cawblade decks unless they got banned since even for months prior cawblade was the most dominant standard deck in a long time.

Coming from Yu-Gi-Oh, I always wondered if the Jar cards in that game were a reference to something. I now suspect that Morphing Jar may have been a nod to Memory Jar in Magic.

I suspect that someone at Konami was a fan of Magic.

It says something about current MtG design when 8/10 entries on this list were printed in the past five (5) years immediately following War of the Spark, with the other two being Memory Jar really only qualifying because it was released immediately after the banlist that was supposed to fix Combo Winter, and the other being Mind's Desire which isn't even considered that good anymore. Also, Modern Horizons 3 has Cranial Ram which R&D have said may warrant a ban in Pauper due to having an effect very similar to the banned cards Cranial Plating and All That Glitters. There may be a new entry to this list, even if it doesn't beat Lutri.

It's also to do with a more aggressive banning strategy where WotC is more willing to ban cards than they were in the past.

well to go further with "once upon a time" it also needed to be banned in modern because its the same deal but it replaced "Ancient Stirrings" and made it to easy to get the missing tron lands. and Lurrus (forgive me if mentioned) that vintage ban forced the rules commitee of commander to change their policies of auto banned cards the original clause was "everything banned in vintage" and Lurrus was the First one that was not bannable in commander so they had to categorizes every single type of card banned in vintage instead of that shortcut.

With Companions, I entered into a MOM sealed Tournament (where they reprinted the companion) cards and the top three of that tournament were all companion cards. The winner was a Gyruda mill deck using stuff like Realmbreaker and Breech the Multiverse. Second place (and my deck) was Obosh one-shot using Valdarian Thrillseeker and backup to allow quick kills with Thrillseeker's backup ability. Lutri came 3rd which used Horobi to quickly boardwipe by copying targetted effects. After the tournament we agreed that if companion ever comes back we're not allowing companions from outside of the deck.

Nope. The Pauper committee wants people to test it before they ban it. There are times when players think a card is going to be busted and ruin a format, only to find out it barely makes a splash. They want to see which way it will go. They are prepared to drop the ban hammer quickly just in case.

@AFreakingLlama 6 ай бұрын

I don't think Cranial Ram is getting the hammer. The power of All That Glitters mainly came from the ease of throwing it on cheap evasive creatures like gingerbrute. Cranial Ram comes attached to an unevasive germ, and required extra mana to put it on somthing else. That something else also only gets a 1 toughness boost instead of the +X of ATG. Also, historically, Rakdos hasn't been a good affinity color combo.

Honestly, I think Cascade is cool as hell lol. It should probably be tied to an extra mana cost to arbitrarily slow it down, but just ripping cards off the top till you get a viable hit is something I vibe with

Your time line on memory jar is off. It came after the show and tell blue package being banned. It was one of the last cards from the block to be banned

I find it odd and weird why Lutri didn't come back as a normal creature or a legendary one to be a commander instead of a companion in Bloomburrow which has a focus on otters among rabbits, mice, etc

Um thats not how Drannith Magistrate works in Commander. It doesn't prevent your opponents from casting it from the command zone. The zone was errataed to to be specified to be a non game zone always accessable to a player when it came to zone prevention. It's not in the hand, but it's still something that can always be played. It would need to be named as a target of a "cant be summoned" effect.

I love how there's an "editors note: at 16:27 cuz he mispronounced Escape to the wilds after the narrator mispronounced Eldraine, Planeswalker, Bedevil and Omnath. And thats only the first half xD

I addition, Lutri is a card that's extremely easy to go infinite with, any fastblink card will give you infinite ETB

Yeah I started playing magic with friends and made and unbeatable green reflect deck in 2009.. the common reflect card which can be played when your opponents hits and the reflected damage from this card can not be blocked! Yes I am the one who broke magic back then!

Stupid enough, I had several copies of Geological Appraiser before the ban, but none of the cards to play it properly. I wasn't the most online at the time, so I took the things at face value and tossed em in a box.

Lutri would have been a fun card to play, all they had to do were "banned as a companion"

It’s pretty interesting that a big part of this list is from the current FIRE design era.

Companions working in commander makes actually no sense since it takes up a sideboard slot, and sideboard wish cards don’t work. Bad rules just change them to make the game better

Lutri is one of my favorite cards of all time. I am not a fan of the companion mechanic, just aside from that, he rocks.

@connorleuthold7356 5 ай бұрын

This has not aged well considering how Cranial Ram was pretty much banned on announcement, and using that competitive vs casual format rule from earlier, Lutri by mana logs own rules, has been surpassed. Wizards wont let this man breathe.
