Maro also said there would be over 40 named mechanics in this set
Dare we see Banding or Flanking make a return?
A legend that gave Banding or Flanking to the team would be cute. Even more so if they had matching colors... I've never had the opportunity to try, but I would enjoy swinging in with a mob of banded 1/1's that all had flanking and band together and kill some big 'ole 5/5 before damage even with the banded flanking alone. Heck, gimme a Lord Legend that gives the team both banding and flanking and that's all it need say on the card to have a bunch of fun!

As much as I'd love to see banding reappear, I'm pretty sure that like ante, they will never do that again.
Flanking on the other hand is pretty sweet and did appear in Time Spiral, so it is in modern.

More importantly... why is this thread here?
For legal reasons they can't do ante, Banding is a complicated mechanic among other issues.
We won't have banding because MaRo specifically stated the mechanics must already be in Modern.

Considering we have supposedly 40 named key/ability words in this set I wouldn't be surprised if we do in some fashion.
