"Opal has historically been a part of decks that approached problematic impact on the metagame or did indeed necessitate other bans" and was "the strongest enabler" in Urza decks. #MTG
Nobody likes getting locked out of the game so the Karn + Mycosynth Lattice combo won't be staying in Modern. #MTG#MTGModern
