legendofa on Commander bans, a year later

2 weeks ago

In a few days, it will be one year since Jeweled Lotus, Mana Crypt, and Dockside Extortionist were banned in Commander. I'm not here to discuss the immediate results of that, I think I made my feelings clear when it happened. But I do want to put a couple thoughts out there, now that some time has passed.

First, and more specifically, some content creators were theorizing that WotC would immediately unban these cards, or print something at or even above their power and efficiency level. I think it's safe to say that that didn't happen. Have those creators revisited this topic at all? I don't really follow a lot of this sort of content, so I'm interested in hearing their thoughts now.

Second, and more generally, have you and your group adapted, stopped playing, or just ignored the bans? In the spirit of EDH, I'm going to say that all of these are valid responses, as long as it makes the most fun for you and doesn't hurt anyone else's experience. Or did the bans just not affect you and nothing changed for you? Any other thoughts?

TheoryCrafter I can see a Bracket 6 that basically acts as the banlist/anything goes area, but some of the stuff on the banlist makes Dockside Extortionist and Jeweled Lotus look like Strike it Rich and Chromatic Star. Even in the rarefied airs of Bracket 5, what would happen?

Usual disclaimer that I don't cEDH at all, but something like Oloro + Lotus + Lurrus (even in the 99--tutors ahoy!), or Temur Tolarian Moxen 'n' Treasures into copy-spammed Tinker and Upheaval with a side of Fastbond, sounds eye-rendingly miserable to my Bracket-3-or-less-dwelling carcass.

greyninja on Animar enthusiasts!

Last night the three new cards that I put into my Animar deck were:

I took out Elvish Visionary and finallyy took out two banned cards Mana Crypt and Dockside Extortionist which feels bad.

I figure that Elvish Visionary is trying to find cards like Shocking Sharpshooter anyway so I might as well run that in its place, and Outcaster Trailblazer can pay for itself once you're in a Cloudstone Curio or Hullbreaker Horror loop with Animar, Soul of Elements in play

Let's replace Dockside Extortionist with Mana Geyser.

griffstick on Chromatic Lantern or Joiner Adept?

Chromatic Lantern and Joiner Adept should not be up for discussion. They both suck.

  • They are only good cards on turn two.
  • They provide almost no additional mana. Making them both even worse late game.

However Cryptolith Rite provides ramp and fixing. And in some cases it's a ritual effect if deployed late in the game. This card wins games in a similar fashion that Dockside Extortionist did.

Having completed my quest to play all 52 of my decks, I decided to try getting a win with all of my decks.

Aug 30

Admiral Beckett Brass' High Seas Robberies loss. Used Dockside Extortionist to get 8 treasures, Daring Discovery--which discovered Glaring Spotlight--let me steal a Blightsteel Colossus from Ba's The Infamous Cruelclaw after cloning it with Protean Raider. Benjamin's dragons hit me hard and Blaine's Gev, Scaled Scorch lizard deck just whittles everyone down. 0-2
