Feels like a fair assessment. I think it’s almost guaranteed that Monstrous Rage, Manifold Mouse and Cori Steel Cutter get banned, but I’m thinking Up the Beanstalk, Stormchaser’s Talent and Omniscience are likely hits too

I agree with him here, and I think he has a good understanding of Standard.
My personal list is Monstrous Rage, Manifold Mouse, Cori Steel-Cutter, Omniscience, Stormchaser’s Talent, Caretaker’s Talent, and Up the Beanstalk. I think that has a wide band so as not to “bequeath” the crown to another deck, although something in mono-black may need to be hit as well, and if so I think it should be Unholy Annex/Ritual Chamber.
This would get rid of these “hyper efficient engines” that are I think are plaguing Standard right now. Cards that just do too much and are an entire deck in a single card. Even if you slow Standard down by hitting Cori and mono-red, I still think these engines need to go because they we’re a huge problem for Standard before this mess too in my opinion.
