I fucking hate shit like this. I should have kept a list of everyone I stopped reading/watching because of misleading rage bait.

I have already watched this and I will agree with your assessment on how being smarter about the game. You have lumped some stuff together and made some assumptions that I dont really know how to address in a short form factor. I was honestly going to recommend the same video to you.

Look at what standard could look like if LCI, MKM, WOE, and OTJ were rotated. Would only be 2 banned cards, and most of the vivi shell would be gone. It's not a UB problem. it's a format size problem

Yeah, I dont like commander, but the people who do enjoy it are not the problem pointing fingers at each other when corporate is the one pulling the strings gets us nowhere.

I have bad feeling they are going to fumble this ban even harder by only removing vivi. Then we are just going to be in the exact same place with a slightly different coat of paint. The format is just too damn big.

Almost like announcing you need to ban something but wont do it yet is a bad idea.

Basically dont treat this like you would in 2016. Information comes faster, and the fast release windows are just as if not more disruptive than a ban. I would do it late September early October, gives people a chance to create a baseline of decks to get excited about for Avatar.

This is a situation where moving this up more wouldn't disrupt people as much as you think. The cauldron deck easily transforms into occulus, a lot of people still have UB who haven't wanted to buy into Vivi, and if anything taking action sooner than later functionally unbans several cards and decks

If they hit Vivi and not Cauldron, we will be right back in this spot before rotation. Sad to see internal tunnel vision on Vivi.
You can hit both. You could hit proft's eidetic memory and cauldron. You could hit all 3. Just hitting Vivi would be a disaster in waiting.
