lol@Birds of Paradise . When was the last time you saw one in a Tier-1 deck?

Stoneforge Mystic and Jace, the Mind Sculptor are the best cards in Standard right now. Following those would probably be Batterskull and Sword of Feast and Famine .

All I got to say is that the top card right now is Stoneforge Mystic period. She is in multiple decks. Quest, caw-blade/dark-blade. Everyone at my fnm seems like they splashed white to add her and the swords in. I had 6 rounds the other night, 5 out of 6 of the decks had stoneforge in it. I say restrict her, not ban her. It is getting kind of ridiculous.

And each of those decks were not the same either. Only one was caw-blade and one was quest. Three other decks just had her in it.

It's not #5, at least, like you said it is. In fact, the only green card that would be in the top 30, or so, are Fauna Shaman , Lotus Cobra , and card:Green Sun's Zenith .

Primeval Titan 's not as good as he used to be. No one uses Valakut anymore and Eldrazi isn't exactly Tier-1, either.

gotta say, this was a pretty nice idea. It's weird seeing what everyone else rates highly, even if it is pretty much just caw-blade decklists.

Stoneforge Mystic is only good in conjunction with some of the best equipment in the game.

Without her some stuff isn't really playable, like Argentum Armor and Batterskull (to a lesser extent).

Other equipment like the swords are all playable without her, just not as accessible.

Therefore I dont't think she needs to be banned, besides a good Crush here and there takes care of most equipment threats.

Jace, the Mind Sculptor is the only card that needs to be banned. No other card today has anywhere close the same influence on all formats. He's good in Standard, Extended, and often shows up in Legacy, as well. Caw-Blade wouldn't be nearly as good as it is without him. He's been on every SCG Top 8 for the past year. In fact, if you can find a Top 8 from a SCG Invitational since last Spring that doesn't include him, I'll eat my words.

Maelstrom Archangel has saved my Coalition deck more times than I can count.
