Couldn’t agree more, Blast- seems the longer this goes, the closer we get to the return of channel/fireball. I wish there was a format for plain old Magic; where you use cunning and cleverness to sort your way out of situations, not race to get the invincibility card out before the other guy, or try to keep up with perpetual token factories. I love the game, and I’m all for new mechanics, but the application of them is so ham-handed it feels like they weren’t play tested very thoroughly. I hate that I just bail when a plainswalker appears. And don’t get me started on “siege” cards…
