Erg vervelend dat ze Top in Extended gebanned hebben.
Ik was nog van plan om na deze rotatie wellicht een Gifts-Rock deck te spelen, maar dat wordt nu vervelend moeilijk met deze banning.
Maar voor andere formaten en casual boeit het niet.

Ik snap het een beetje, maar vind het wel erg rot.

Het zou leuk zijn als time Vault weer zijn oude werking krijgt. Nieuw (of oud, hoe je 't wil zien) tooltje erbij voor vintage (nu voltaic key unrestricted is...)
En Dream Halls terug!!! i like!

verder is alles wel logisch...
