Yeah agreed on all accounts, would’ve loved to see those too.
I didn’t think Up the Beanstalk would get banned so soon but I think it’s a good hit to the 4c decks that are just a slog to play against.
Everything I’ve seen from Beans has just been absurd. There’s just so many high MV cards you can cast for 0-2 mana these days it’s a super easy value engine. Plus it cantrips before you even cast anything and I think that really pushes it over the edge
