Without a doubt, the number one problem with this format is heavy storm. Heavy storm takes slower metas and spoon feeds them meth until they are moving at a about 6000 mph. It is my personal opinion that mass backrow destruction is unhealthy for the game. Backrow are the most skill intensive part of the game, so why do we need cards that get rid of multiple backrow for no cost? On a fundamental level, the risk of getting hit for a +1 or +2 from heavy is what makes backrow this format so insignificant. There is only one true backrow deck in the meta, and that is rabbit, a deck that naturally generates cards to protect its backrow. This is not to say i would like to see rabbit in a format without heavy; the deck is just far too good. Rabbit is without a doubt the most adaptable deck in the current meta, for its ability to survive things that seemed to spell certain doom for it, first the loss of priority, and later the arrival of chaos dragons on the meta. The three most important things i feel should happen with the banlist should be 1) the banning of heavy storm. With 3 mst and other cards such as night shot, i feel we have adequate backrow removal without resorting to overpowered cards like this. 2) The limitation of rabbit. This is the one card without a doubt i know the format can do without. 1 card 2400 solemn judgment is just too good. 3) limitation of wind-up rat. FTK's are without a doubt the most unhealthy thing for the meta. Maybe with these hits, we'd see less need for triplicates of annoying little spellcaster fairy things..... So yeah, this is my 3 things i feel that must absolutely happen for the next format to be kinda-almost-barely-skillful. Apologies for the break, been out of town for 27 days. Coming back X3.- Tsgreen
