December 2010 Ban list

[Elexious]

In case you didn't notice the bans and rule changes are out.

The biggest rule change is that your general's 'colors' is not limited to it's casting cost but all mana symbols that appear on the card much like the rules for what cards are legal for each general. For example Memnarch somewhat restricts himself because he is colorless but need blue to activate his ability. Now you can actually play Memnarch and your deck would be full of blue and colorless cards/mana symbols.

I think that this is cool. It lets you play all the legends as generals and opens up deck possibilities. It also solves an inconsistency that I didn't even realize was there.

The only ban I saw was Emrakul the Aeon's Torn.

I don't like this. Emrakul is not fun to see on the table but I think the 'Emrakul problem' was solved a long time ago. Well there goes my eldrazi tribal deck.
