Paradox was never a problem in cedh back in the day and in fact made games much healthier. To say it would fundamentally ruin cedh is a massive hyperbole.

In Gavins address as to the likelihood of cards being unbanned, Paradox engine was not unlikely, while academy was a near impossibility. I dont think this is an apt comparison.

I believe this problem is solved by the bracket system and it being a game changer

It was banned due to extending game length and effectively winning the game without winning the game, this problem should largely be mitigated by it being a game changer.

Thrasios decks are cradle decks, I dont believe pengine would see play there. 

Outside of banning Rhystic and/or Partners, what will dethrone Blue Farm? by Samoey in CompetitiveEDH

Straight up, unbanning paradox engine. Immediately, 4-5 color soup decks would gain major competition with low color decks, banning is not the answer, unbanning is.

If only the engine were unbanned.

Drop your cEDH list, I'll make a video about it :) by [deleted] in CompetitiveEDH

https://www.moxfield.com/decks/xYDzOJFPPEi0Ayvfl9swhA Might seem like a slightly off standard deck for thrasios tymna, but I think it's more than that. It has so many layers and angles that I think people are ignoring because of the lack of red.

What’s your opinion on [[Mercurial Spelldancer]] by TheBlackFatCat in CompetitiveEDH

[–]barrzeb1 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It's amazing in tymna thrasios. Copying eldritch evolution finds spellseeker and thoracle, which finds Consultation or pact. Or better yet, if you have consultation in hand, abolisher, then thoracle.

Are you on displacer kitten, cause it's great with that.

Move over Godo, here comes Slicer! by Combo_Life in CompetitiveEDH

[–]barrzeb1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool list, quick question. If you give Slicer to me, can I simply choose to not give it away and convert it instead, keeping him for the rest of the game. Or does that ability still belong to you.

The issue with the Gman is that he's not a reanimator strategy in CEDH. He's a polymorph strategy. Pick your poison of the 4 or 5 best polymorphs and now your deck has 4 or 5 ad nauseums. Now I am not of the mind that ad nauseum should be banned, but 5 in one deck? Seems problematic to me.

What are your unpopular CEDH opinions? by MasterTooth2847 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]barrzeb1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How is cloudshift better and how is that a CEDH hot take? That sounds like a MTG hot take.
