Please fix this issue, just got my new ultrawide monitor so stoked to play mtg and it keeps leaving full screen whenever there is a new game or the ending. super annoying, also the play map looked kinda weird like a huge black space but with jagged edges.

Seriously, Alchemy has ruined Historic Brawl. There should be its own Alchemy format for brawl. It ruins the game with things like conjure out of commander color, drafting from spellbooks, seeking, and so much other non-magic mechanics that should be left to its own terrible format. Please listen to the players on this one. WE USE BRAWL to test cards for commander, and alchemy makes that ridiculous. This is what should happen IMHO:
1. Alchemy Brawl (so no key to the archive, no mythweaver poq and other ridiculously overpowered cards in regular brawl
2. Historic Brawl - ban all the worst contenders in each color, ragavan, mana drain, dark ritual, the one ring, teferis protection, primeval titan, paradox engine, wash away, sundering titan, griselbrand, maybe even a couple others (basically things that are banned in commander shouldnt be allowed in brawl, because its tougher against just one person.
3. Have a Hardcore Timeless Brawl format where literally ever card is allowed, alchemy, everything, Oko, etc. And then don't allow concedes either.Having Historic Brawl separated into three formats would make a lot of players happy. You can play the lighter janky normal format if you're looking for some casual fun, if you like alchemy you can play that or the hardcore version going into it knowing you can't concede and anything goes.
I feel like this one change to brawl would make the most impact on the player base's happiness.

I completely agree; Omniscience and Vivi/Cauldron should receive the ban hammer in standard. These three cards really make the format unenjoyable and hinder interaction, which is the core of the MTG game since its inception. Both of these styles of decks can combo off by turn 4 and just instant win, which is absolutely unfair. Mark my words, if you want standard to be a nice way for new players from Universes beyond to get into tournament magic, these combos have to go, because they make it a game of which of these two decks does someone play, not a game of unique deck building. I played during the combo winter of 1999 era, and Omniscience Kona combo and Vivi in my book are just as bad and just as not fun. You will lose players with these cards, whereas the rest of standard is actually pretty interesting, but most decks cannot do anything against this, and that's being said as I am a control player with counterspells, boardwipes, etc. - against these two decks it doesn't even matter as you are fighting on two different fronts: creatures vs. combo and its nearly impossible to do anything about both.
The last bans in June 2025 attempted to combat these two decks by removing cards that support their strategy, rather than the actual problem cards themselves. Please make the right choice this time and get rid of Omniscience and Vivi/Cauldron, and make standard enjoyable again. Getting rid of the other cards failed to remove these threats and cards released since then have re-enabled them to another level again.
