The release of a new set means an update to Magic's Banned and Restricted list. Today the update coinciding with Fate Reforged was released and is sure to shake up the top decks at tournaments in the future.

Modern

Modern gets a major shake up with the axing of newcomers Treasure Cruise and Dig Through Time[/card[ and the removal of long time competitor [card]Birthing Pod. These changes are sure to send waves throughout the game in advance of the upcoming Pro Tour Fate Reforged where Modern is the showcased constructed format.

Legacy

Vintage

The changes in Legacy and Vintage demonstrate the power of Treasure Cruise. The explanation of these changes all center on increasing the diversity of decks that are performing well in their respective formats. Time will tell if these bans yield the desired outcomes but one thing is for sure - Modern is going to look very different at the Pro Tour.
