Alchemy is a completely different format from Historic, so tying card adjustments together so they effect both formats makes no sense. Historic doesn't need the same adjustments to be a healthy format as Alchemy will. #LeaveHistoricAlone! Or if you must, you need separate balance teams assessing adjustments for historic, but all adjustments for Alchemy should not automatically apply to historic. At a bare minimum, please introduce a Pioneer-like format to Arena, even if all the Pioneer sets/cards aren't going to exist in Arena, there should be a format that has all of and ONLY the paper cards, and exactly as they were when first released on Arena. We should get to enjoy our old standard cards in a format that only contains old standard cards, plus things like Historic Anthology, but not things like Jumpstart Historic Horizons or Alchemy cards that never existed in paper.
