Hello everyone and welcome back to another B&R list update, geez this is a long one today so let's go over the major changes for specific formats as per usual, starting with Modern.
Modern kinda got 6 cards banned they are Blazing Shoal, Cloudpost, Green Sun's Zenith, Ponder, Preordain and Rite of Flame are you kidding me, well there goes modern or what was modern's main decks of choice, Blazing Shoal basically means no Turn 3 mono blue infect, Cloudpost means no 12 post, Green Sun's Zenith is basically no more green mass ramp, Ponder and Preordain well both have been seen in various combo decks in this format, Rite of Flame to stop the obvious turn 1 Into the Breach decks, yeowch this was a nasty format and now it might be dead already, depending if there are other decks out there.
Extended kinda got 5 cards banned from the format, the elephant in the room aka Jace, the Mind Sculptor and Stoneforge Mystic got banned again, Ponder and Preordain got busted down to size again, why i don't know and of course Mental Misstep got banned as well since it was preventing pretty much half the decks from winning by countering their turn 1 plays at will, other then that even if extended is dead this list doesn't matter anymore, way to kill your formats wizards.
Legacy and Vintage got a change each this time around, Mental Misstep is banned in Legacy as well, for the obvious turn 1 counter reasons, Fact or Fiction is now officially unrestricted in vintage finally, thank god and for you commander players Lion's Eye Diamond is now free to play again, to read both announcements they will be below of course.
