I don't understand banning Reflector Mage instead of Gideon. R&D reeeeally loves that card.

Hilariously, I do not need a new deck! ......My wife does however and she will not be happy about it. She loved her little Reflector Mage children.

Man and I just went ahead and got myself a set of copters... for my new blue white flash deck -_-

I am not impressed.

What can't be destroyed must be bound.

This is some true dedication to flavor.

Wow, I almost bought 3 more copters. I guess that makes up for me passing that Saheeli. I never did draft any reflector mages either (I think I have 1).

It's very weird to ban lil' Emmy WHILE printing a 2 card infinite combo. It's funny but not weird to un ban GGT, then print 3 cards that make it better, then ban it again.

They should just flat out ban phyrexian mana in modern.

The worst bans that I've seen in a while. Don't turn Standard into Modern and Legacy...

WotC really dropped the ball on this one. This is the first standard ban since Jace/Misty, and now they not only need bannings, but bannings for multiple archetypes.

Personally I figured that copter would get punted sometime, the value of giving every deck a 3/3 flyer that filters is just nuts. That it would so soon near the second set is a bit odd. I don't play standard anymore but I can see why they nuked emrakrul. Reflector mage boggles me a bit.

"Don't turn standard into a format with a diversity of fun and playable decks."

I wonder if the reflector mage ban -- and standard banning in general -- is due to them extending the rotation. Obviously rofl coptor was a mistake.... but I think these all go together.

All I know is that my wife has been driving people crazy with Reflector Mage ever since Panharmonicon became a thing. I'm guessing that, as a card overall, it was just slowing down games as people were having to basically re-take turns over and over again casting things they already cast a few turns ago.

A moment of silence for the loss of Gitaxian Probe.
