Hoping Dave doesn’t get bullied into shit bans because of dumb mob mentality.
It took Wizards a while to deal with Splinter Twin because there was (until a certain point in modern) a way to handle this.
Currently there’s only one deck that has such a broken ass high roll…Kennen.
Ban list should be short:
Nocturne and Star Spring.
Why?
Kennen is still the biggest problem in Riftbound right now, because even after the stacked deck ban, it's still one of the highest played decks, which in itself isn't a problem, but the fact that it still wins and it even beat Riven plenty of times in the latest large tournament just the insane high roll you can get from Lightning Rush, Fizz, to Nocturne and Rhasa is just insane. Getting rid of Nocturne makes this more fair without making the deck unplayable.
Star spring is probably the most problematic card in the Riven deck because of the way it prevents or subverts the battle slash moving mechanic. Banning other cards such as Astral Heron or Stellacorn Herder would probably make a lot of purple-green decks way less playable or less attractive. And drawing cards while a strong mechanic isn't always super problematic because you can either draw a good card or a bad card, but Starspring makes Riven more of a fair deck without adjusting its power level and forces players to think about how to deploy because you can’t auto retreat anymore.
Other suggested bans read as a “man I lost once at a nexus night so ban for my feels”.
Still finalizing announcement for Fri, but since we know many are trying to figure out how to prepare for upcoming tournaments, we wanted to let you all know that any bans we make will be EFFECTIVE MON NOV 23rd, and will not impact events happening between now and then.

Today is Veterans Day here in the US, a day where sensible people honor those who chose to take up a cause larger than themselves and serve.
Thank you for your service 🫡

Lemme get this straight.
SBF had 8% of anthropic.
Instead he tried a crypto rug and threw away multiple generations of wealth.
