    As of today, February 15 2021, Throne of Eldraine now ties for 5th place on this list. before this banned and restricted update, it tied for 7th, and 6th. In Standard there are currently six banned cards from this set: Cauldron Familiar, Escape to the wilds, Fires of Invention, Lucky Clover, Oko, Thief of Crowns, Once Upon a Time. Three cards from ELD are banned in Modern: Oko, Thief of Crowns, Once Upon a Time, Mystic Sanctuary (new, also banned in pauper). Oko, Thief of Crowns is also now banned in Legacy.

Lord of Antlantis is great for merfolk decks. And BOP and Llanowar Elves are powerful enough to be in many green decks today(especially BOP).

It currently doesn't, but i believe it can) On top of all of that, Scrap Trawler was on the chopping block when KCI was big, but unstead KCI itself was banned.

    @@LegendaryO34 I think there is a good chance Eldraine makes the top 5. only one more ban to tie for 5th; and it would probably be handed the tie breaker as only one of its currently banned cards would even be argued as weak instead of 5. Top 4 is harder but very much possible. Eldraine would probably get the tie breaker here as well; since 5 of the bans for legends were just not very powerful. Top 3 is probably beyond the set. Getting a tie for 3rd would require 4 more bans, and I don't think Eldraine would take the tiebreaker over Urza's saga. The possibility for 5 more bans exists, but is limited. There is still a fair sized list of cards that might get the axe in some format: Castle Locthwain - powerful low-deck-cost draw engine Bone Crusher Giant - powerful red aggro for standard, could help enable another red deck wins Fabled Passage - could be making mana too good in standard, historic and pioneer Embercleave - already shown to be powerful, could be the top end blowout for red deck wins Robber of the Rich - unlikely but it's a rouge and it's aggressive Drown in the Loch - it's an uncommon that is $3.50, it is powerful, especially now that dimir is a thing again Rankle, Master of Pranks - powerful rouge, we'll see how it works out in standard Emery - sees some play in legacy, it could definitely break something Brazen Borrower - where doesn't this see play? could easily prove too powerful for standard Mystic Sanctuary - I have seen this land do disgusting things; it's probably going to be banned somewhere

    Hey Nizzahon, you've mentioned Goblin Recruiter a few times so far about it being banned in Legacy, and mention its ability for enabling Goblin Decks. That unfortunately doesnt line up with the historical reasoning as why it was banned. When Legacy was made from Type 1.5, there were 3 of the most powerful decks in the format, and Wizards banned a piece of all of these to try and provide more breathing room for brewing decks. These decks were a Worldgorger Dragon Combo deck, which had Bazaar of Baghdad banned, the other was Shops, which had Mishras Workshop banned, and Food Chain Combo was the other best deck, and had banned Goblin Recruiter from it.

    Yeah, I don’t think people were able to pull of turn 1 or 2 kills in Mirrodin block like how they were back during the Urza’s block tournaments. Back then people were killing each other by turn 1 or 2. In Standard. Prior to them being banned out of existence, they were good enough to compete with any Vintage decks of the time. The Megrim/Jar deck could knock an opponent down to 6 life first turn, and the Academy deck would usually be able to mill an opponent out by turn 3 at the latest. “Black Summer” Necropotence decks and even the Affinity decks of Mirrodin block before the bans were still not as powerful as the “Combo Winter” decks. The Urza’s Block may not have had quite as many cards banned as some others, but they remain to this day some of the most powerful ever printed. Windfall, Yawgmoth’s Will, Tolarian Academy, Tinker and Memory Jar are still banned in Legacy and restricted in Vintage, and Yawgmoth’s Bargain is banned in Legacy. Even with the Affinity mechanic, the Mirrodin block can’t beat that kind of fast mana, card draw, graveyard usage, and being able to cheat out any big Artifact threat in your deck for such a low mana cost.

    Mirror Universe used to be broken, the rules changes surrounding when the game checks to see if a player is dead from damage made the card worse. It used to be that you could put your life at zero and you didn't check until the end of the phase to see if you were dead, you could go into the negatives during a phase, and then gain that life back, and you wouldn't be considered dead. Mirror Universe let you play a control deck, let your opponent deal a lot of damage to you, mana burn yourself and swap life with the opponent to win the game. It very literally was a 6 mana card that said "win the game" because of how the rules worked.

    As of a few days ago, May 13 2024, Throne of Eldraine WOULD have tied 4th place on this list with eight banned cards. Before this banned and restricted update, it tied for 5th. I say WOULD because Unfinity had to go and get FIFTY SIX CARDS BANNED IN LEGACY. I had previously predicted that ELD could tie for 4th and it seems I would have been right (unless you count Ikoria's errata to ten cards; then ELD has to settle for tying 5th). I honestly think this video is due for a remake now; maybe even another episode in the History of the Banned and Restricted List. ELD had (the set has since rotated) six cards banned in Standard: Cauldron Familiar, Escape to the wilds, Fires of Invention, Lucky Clover, Oko, Thief of Crowns, Once Upon a Time. Three cards from ELD are banned in Modern: Oko, Thief of Crowns, Once Upon a Time, Mystic Sanctuary. Two cards are now banned from ELD in Pauper: Mystic Sanctuary, All That Glitters. Oko is still banned in Legacy. edit: counting is hard.

    What always bothered me was the bans that took place because Wizards was worried about stuff interacting with the restricted list. Just do away with the restricted list. If 2 of a card is too good, why should anyone build a deck with 1? Ban it. Or better yet, don't print it unless it's going in an unset. The only thing worse was banning the wrong card to Nerf a combo. Then unbanning. Then banning the right one. Then restricting the unbanned one just in case.

    If he included it, it would've been Kaladesh. Aetherworks Marvel, attune with aether, smugglers copter, and rogue refiner were all banned in standard. Additionally, Aether revolt also banned felidar guardian from standard and more recently, paradox engine in edh. Kaladesh block was a broken set and I'm honestly surprised that only 6 cards from the block in total have been banned to date. If they hadn't been so "careful" with card design, and i say careful loosely, it could've easily been Mirrodin 2.0

    I would put Mirrodin at #1. You could totally equate banning of Power9 cards as simply a power adjustment, but you would figure that with so many cards already printed by the time Mirrodin was released, they would actually playtest the heck out of a new mechanic like Affinity and realize it was completely broken. So going off pure count, sure Alpha is an obvious #1, but you could demote this to HM early since it's not that interesting as a result. I don't think it even qualifies as a "set", since when it was released, it was the entire game itself.

    Correct, but as he’s mentioned in his History of the Banned and Restricted List, he doesn’t discuss any formats, such as Commander and Pauper, for which there are no premier pro-tour events. Basically, only the 60 card non-rotating and rotating formats are discussed in these videos 🙂

    edit-nvm you have to tap it I am confused by candelabra of tawnos, isn't it extremely powerful? if you have a land that produces more than 1 mana, it's a 1 mana artifact that produces infinite mana. with a City of Traitors it's turn 1 infinite mana. with a bunch of other lands it's on turn 2. It seems kinda ridicolous to me considering the investment is so small.

    @@altromonte15 remember, cards like Mana Flare were a thing back then, too. Candelabra actually is/was stupidly powerful, especially when you could use it to play out from under a stasis or winter orb, your's or their's. The flip side of this was that making obscene amounts of Mana used to carry a rather hefty downside, hitting your life total 1 for 1, for any unspent Mana leftover at the end of each phase, so making arbitrarily large amounts of Mana could wind up killing you, if you were reckless about it.
