Ban Omniscience in BO1
Omniscience needs to be banned in all Best-of-1 formats. It completely warps the format and makes decks other than pure Aggro unplayable. Having it legal for 4+ more years will simply kill creative brewing, as the "best" combo will always involve Omniscience.
While it may be possible to technically "interact" with Omniscience combos, their resiliency and redundancy means that interaction is fruitless. Players wind up lacking any real agency, forced to either resign, or sit for 10 minutes and wait to see if the Omniscience combo fizzles. Omniscience simply needs to be banned.

this card is so annoying, in historic, pioneer ok, but now its also in standard bzw. alchemy, play 4 games three times vs. the same card combo omnisicience/ abuelos awakening, the problem after casting this card its hard to resolve, because they played the second one , or have enough counter spells on hand, that can cast for free, only way to remove is exile the graveyard, think also this destroys the format, that is not fun to play, yes its a iconic card, but for my opinion its has no place in actual formats, its dumb, but if wizards want to destroy this format for long term, go for it., bring more of this cards., and yes its boring to play always vs. the same deck, of course its succesfully.

Not only is this card making gameplay boring, but you have to wait 5 minutes for the player who cast it to win the game... you literally have to log off or sit there and watch them recast cards repeatedly to slowly kill you off.
