Hoping for some unbans in modern.
Possibly Splinter twin? Preordain?
Maybe artifact lands?
Banning veil of summer would be nice too.
wouldnt be too crazy to see a tron piece go too.

I'm going to do a legit table flip if Ballista gets banned........
I feel you. It's Heliod's fault, not Ballista. Create a problem and not deal with the problem, find a scapegoat. It's the way things go now.

Artifacts lands do not need to be unbanned in modern.
However, I’m surprised they didn’t unban splinter twin with all the hate they’ve printed for it since it’s been banned:

Is the deck/combo even putting up great results? It doesn't seem like it gets the attention of Breach decks or Inverter decks. Funny that all three use a TBD card.
Once Upon a Time should probably be banned from Modern as a belated "let's erase this from the game" move.

This Heliod is catchable with collected company and that card is also pioneer legal so could make waves if built right however the balistia cannont be captured with it though
As long as it doesn't get banned in modern I'm cool. The heliod combo isn't really doing much there, so I think it should be safe. Wizard's last modern ban does show that nothing's sacred so who the **** knows what they'll do.
It just seems like modern players are generally showing a massive lack of faith in the format.
I stopped playing modern and started hosting Pioneer at the shop....and at every dang Pioneer event there's more than half the players playing that inverter deck....I really hope Inverter gets the ban.

11:15, restate my assumptions: 1. Mathematics is the language of nature. 2. Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers. 3. If you graph these numbers, patterns emerge. Therefore: There are patterns everywhere in nature. - Maximillian Cohen.
Why is there always that one vote for twin unban. Its not going to happen, its a way overpowered strat that can lucksac into winning way too easy and is very hard to hate successfully against without dedicating lots of space to defeating it and only it.
@NZB2323:
Force of Despair only answers kiki. the blue creature enters during your turn.
The other two forces won't answer kiki (they are still good of course)
Aether Gust is effectively 3cmc, since you can't answer the creature, but must wait for the enchantment, at which point the'll have tapped one of your lands; also, you still need another answer, because they'll put it on top.
maybe the two forces that actually work, Fry, and Push, are enough though.
Oh I Have. In fact it was the first modern deck I put together so I have much experience. But with the recent banning of mox opal it has been significantly downgraded. The real concern wouldnt be affinity it would be urza and hardened scale decks as they could probably use the lands to greater effect.5. For that reason I doubt it would happen. But it would be nice to see them revive affinity somehow.
