They probably have to ban more than just Vivi in Standard though
Update: I did 😅

Also I'm having some technical difficulties updating my website so I instead copied it to a gdoc for now. Much jank, have fun.

Here it is: 18K words on how to win with Sanctum Amulet at upcoming RCs.
It's the best deck to play in modern - even if you're just okay at it.
Put a ton of work into this one, so it's $15 or a $5 sub (comes with all my other articles).

24.09.2025 17:12 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Yeah, thanks to the new Pick-Two Draft format, my first picks from this second pack were pretty obvious: Burst Lightning for my deck and a foil Tarmogoyf I can sell later

Expanded Deck of the Week #45 : Jellicent ex / Gardevoir ex
(Threads on Expanded decks, when I feel like it!)
With Worlds approaching, my focus is on Standard, but that doesn't mean I can't talk about what White Flare and Black Bolt bring to Expanded. Today: Jellicent ex!

Please tell me this hadn't happened too late for it to be missed on WotC

This set seems low powered, misguided, and the licencing around the set has just been a mess.
With the endless torrent of sets over the last 18 months, getting to take 4 months off is actually quite nice 😅
I know that isn't a helpful answer, but I'm not certain there is a good solution
You could say "Unlike some, I'm releasing the (top 16 RBET deck)lists" the next time you do a decklist/event roundup

03.09.2025 09:18 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I'm curious to try it out. The decent sized LGS near me will be doing launch events for it, so I'm curious to give it a go. I played a lot of Legends of Runeterra a few years back, and I hope this will be similar
