Hey @TolarianCollege I’m a new player and I cannot underrated why everyone is mad at the Commander RC for this decision?

Feels like they were stuck between a rock and a hard place here. Yea the idea of the cards suck but that’s WotC not the RC. What’s the outrage about??

If they were to preemptively ban these cards wouldn’t that just lead to WotC making their own Commander ban list and going “oh they’re not banned by us tho” and then you have 1 format with two different ban lists.

Even when Commander is a format that many play with house rules

If my friend buys a SL: TWD card because they’re a huge fan of both IPs am I going to tell them “hey this card is banned so you can’t play it” but they spent a bunch of money on it and going to want to use it. I want to play with my friend banned or not. I’m going to let them.

Do I hate the precedent set by the Secret Lair TWD? Yea it’s super greedy and reeks of corporate profit motive as the motivator. To revive TWD by leeching of our community.

But I understand the RC decision. Is that so bad?

Understand** of course I have a typo in the first tweet of this thread.
