@MeditronS are you denying the existence of literally dozens of other unique decks that won / top 8'd large tournaments?

@GoingMadlem not denying they "existed" denying they were actually "competitive". faeries strangled that format much like cawblade did later

@MeditronS so your argument is that if a two color deck hadn't been good, 5cc deck would have been king ... so we should not allow 5cc again

@GoingMadlem no, my argument is had faeries not been so oppressively degenerate 5cc would've wrecked the format.this format has no "faeries"

@MeditronS so that deck that more efficiently cast Cryptic Command win out? Think the problem was Cryptic Command ... not the mana

@GoingMadlem i'm pretty sure you're misunderstanding faeries. 1 card didn't break it, mistbind was arguably more vital than cryptic in it.

@MeditronS I think you're overestimating the correlation between the prior and suggested mana bases and using an alternate past to argue ...

@GoingMadlem zen was super diverse too right? 2/2
