It could be possible to have another cycle of Grandeur Legendary Creatures to reference past legendary creatures. Which Legendary Creatures or story characters could they reference?
I would actually really prefer it if they didn't bring this back in favor of something else...
I've really never even liked the concept of this mechanic. It rewards you for randomly drawing into one of the three (maximum) other copies of a legendary in your 60 card deck. That's not really a gameplay choice it's just kinda random. Not to mention that these effects would have to be fairly big to even be worth playing in the first place and it seems like it would be hard to make them feel splashy and impactful but not like big lucksacs.

Grandeur is unlikely to return because WotC (and MaRo) does not want to use a mechanic that will make a large number of players (specifically the Commander community) unhappy.

It's about time for the reserved list to die, for the sake of Vintage and Legacy (And Commander).
Not to mention it just serves as a reminder of how legendary is really a drawback.

MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
A reworked Grandeur could be nice. Instead of asking for a specific name make it a shared creature type. Maybe it needs a different flavour but it solves the legendary issue and would be a blast for EDH.
