MTG Banned and Restricted hits Historic, leaves Alrund’s Epiphany alone for now
Today’s Banned and Restricted Magic: The Gathering announcement removed three cards from the Historic format and rebalanced five digital-only MTG Arena cards, with no bans in the Standard format. Effective Oct. 14 in MTG Arena, Tibalt’s Trickery and Brainstorm (previously suspended) will be banned in the Historic format. Memory Lapse is also getting removed, as a suspension. No bans were issued for the Standard format, but WotC is monitoring Alrund’s Epiphany and Esika’s Chariot until after the release of Innistrad: Crimson Vow in Nov.
