It's the only card banned this time so explanation of why
While Thassa's Oracle is a powerful card that has created combo decks across multiple formats, until recently, it wasn't a force to be reckoned with in Historic. However, with the recent printing of Tainted Pact and the fine-tuning of that archetype, we've seen the rise of the two-card combo in Historic to the point that half the field for the past League Weekend utilized the combo.
Due to the power of the two-card combination, and because we expect that Thassa's Oracle is likely to cause problems down the road as Historic continues to add new cards, Thassa's Oracle is banned in Historic.
and the ban is active today.
This is definitely the right ban first of all stifle is clearly not enough to stop it secondly tainted pact is not bannable good news for that card is we can still try it with Jace, Wielder of Mysteries
I don't see why pact is not bannable. It should not be introduced to the format in the first place. Not only does it not work correctly but also it was obvious what will happen when it will be introduced into historic.

You act like WotC has any clue what they are doing.

Spoiler: They dont.
I mean, better than the assumption that some posters know better than WotC what they are or should be doing.
So, besides seeing that stupid deck on the way out, I also got 4 free rare wildcards (since I hadn't spent any on Oracles). What's not to like? Now I'm gonna use those to finish my Jeskai Control deck.

still, nice to get some free wild cards.... lol.
and it's certainly not very fun to be killed by a 2 card combo.
