Modern dredge11/15/2022 ![]() Pioneer: Besides how powerful Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx is, I don’t think we are going to see this card banned. My partners here at MTG Arena Zone already make some clear statements about this enchantment without a doubt, they are solid reasons for considering this card for this next Monday’s ban announcement. Furthermore, The Meathook Massacre is the main reason Black can hold back any aggro attempt without worrying too much. Just as in Fable of Mirror-Breaker and Wedding Announcement, this werewolf is a card that makes you trade 2×1 most of the time, something that makes any deck run low on resources for fighting back when Lili or Sheoldred comes into play. I know that it could sound so adventurous, but Trespasser could be a viable ban. This leaves us with just two possible viable ban targets for Standard for holding Black back: The Meathook Massacreand Graveyard Trespasser. On the other hand, despite how strong Invoke Despair is, this sorcery is a card that demands an archetype build around casting it without worrying about four black mana in its casting cost. With this in mind, Lili and Sheoldred should be safe. Like many times said before, is very improbable that WotC ban a card from the latest set. Liliana of the Veil and Sheoldred, the Apocalypse seems like the stronger cards Black had at its disposal nevertheless, other cards like The Meathook Massacre, Graveyard Trespasser, and Invoke Despair are pillars of Black-based archetypes. Clearly it is one of the big three (Fable, Wedding Announcement, and Liliana of the Veil), however, being Black so dominant, after the release of DMU, things change a little. Standard: Before the rotation, we discuss many times on my stream that the first card that probably would get ban post-rotation was going to be Fable of the Mirror-Breaker.
