@@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.

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.

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.

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. There's also multiple formats with individual banlists, which opens up more places a ban can happen. I'm not saying that R&D is perfect, but it's not strictly black and white.

I like how Trickery got banned because it basically turned the game into rock-paper-scissors/gambling to see who wins, and made the game unfun to play, when that is exactly what modern Yugioh has been for years lol I've actually proven this with several people: You can literally just shuffle up and draw your opening hands and just reveal them, see how many hand-traps and starter pieces each player has, and literally just determine who wins that game immediately without actually playing it out. Basically just play RPS or flip a coin at that point and cut out the card game entirely lol

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.

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.

@@ChickenMcThiccken I get the appeal of having rewards for specific deckbuilding, but explicit, all-or-nothing restrictions like Companion or Hearthstone's Reno Jackson aren't a well-designed way to do it. Having an advantage as strong as starting the game with a specific card given out to decks that just so happen to fulfill a specific and arbitrary rule will almost never be balanced. Many companions were problematic because for decks that already fit the requirements, they were basically free advantage. Lutri was day-0 banned in Commander because it gave a free advantage to blue-red while requiring zero build-around; every deck was already singleton, so any blue-red deck could start with an extra card that decks in other colors could not without having to change anything. Lurrus was banned in legacy and even vintage before the blanket errata for similar reasons: so many decks already fit the requirement or were close to doing so, and it put those decks far above those who didn't. I've been thinking of a mechanic called Pact, with functions similar to companion, only with start-of-game effects rather than deckbuilding requirements. How it works is that after the mulligan phase, you can reveal a card with Pact from your sideboard and put it into your hand. If you do, it creates an effect at the start of the first player's first turn. This effect could be losing life, gaining a negative emblem, or giving an opponent something positive like a treasure token. The difference here is that while every deck can technically run a Pact, not every deck will want to. It's not free advantage, it's a tradeoff.

They should really have just giveny Otter son a different companion requirement. We Rule 0 him in as long as he's not a companion. Actually that gives me an idea: Top Rule 0s done in commander. Yeah there's no hard data there but maybe you could talk to the community on the subject.

Uhm, Companion cards have always been in the command zone, NOT in the sideboard. This wasn't changed. It's just that the command zone isn't really used in most formats, but it still exists.

Ah, yes, the ever present Bad Dream Kitty. If this channel ever gets an internal banlist Lurrus is definitely going to be on it. Duel/ManaLogs is probably getting sick of talking about that card. Getting banned from a format made for the stupidly busted cards that are banned everywhere else will never stop being hilarious to me.

Skipped a point with Memory Jar. Another problem was that it essentially milled your opponent for 7 cards since they rarely could even use what they drew. I still swear I remember it being banned earlier than this that though. I remember hearing about it being/going to be banned while at the prerelease for the set.

these days you could just play Narset PoV. what makes Memory jar better than Wheel in Commander is it's generic mana so you're commander doesnt even have to be red, playing NPoV and WoF requires red/blue color identity. NPoV and MJ only requires Blue.

I feel there's a few longtime MTG players that are silently grinding their teeth with pronunciation or are confused. Here's a few examples: Eldraine is practically said as "El Drain " Bedevil is usually said like "Be Devil" Kaldheim is called "Called●hi●m" Just trying to help avoid confusion with discussions.

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.
