I've been loving viserai, but please ban ripple away. The card has steadily been creeping up in how effective it is and fully stopping Viserai's turns just feels egregious for a blue block 3. Potentially losing go again, 3 cards and up to 3 banishes is too much for an instant bb3

Ended up making top 8 on spellscilio in Calling Kansas City this weekend! 5-2 day 1 into 10-2 day 2 lost quarters to teklo I could have played better in all my losses but still happy with the weekend considering I've been taking some downtime from fab. Opened good too!

Playing PT Vegas with a huge recent CC shakeup confirmed what I've been feeling for a while. I'd really love for tier 4s to come closer to set release. It opens much more room for exciting rogue decks and deckbuilding edges. It also helps limited feel fresh.

Credit where credit is due. Usurp the Shadow Throne is extremely exciting and exactly what I've been yearning for. Viserai has a powerful and compelling hero textbox in a way that feels very nostalgic to early FaB, Malice also seems inspired. Looking forward to Seoul!

If there were going to be bans for World's I'm glad they got moved forward. I'm not a fan of back to back bans. Runeblade was too strong but there were other viable options. It's not clear to me if this actually balances the format or just resets the search for what's broken.

I feel like people just like to be upset online. Complaining about $2000 CC decks is one thing but now $20 silver age decks that come with a bonus pack are too expensive? Come. on. Cards still cost money to print not to mention packaging, shipping, dev time and marketing.

Anecdotal but I've heard far more discussion around concessions in PQ top 8s this season than any previous one. For many people not interested in the invite, winning an event early on isn't very attractive. Top 8/Top 4 prizing and being allowed to play more PQs is the better deal

I can't tell if the "Cindra never converts" and "she just isn't powerful" thing is a meme, or if people are just in denial. She's won 3 callings and 8 Nats in 9 months! I fully expect her to continue to do well unless something major in the format shifts.
