Magic: Meeting Last year, there was a lot of change last year, starting with adding a set to the opposite unit for the foundation and the standard, and then changing the legitimacy of the universe beyond the set. Since the UB set has become a standard leg, this has resulted in a change in terms of launch schedules, and four sets have already been carried out twice this year, and 2026 is trying to maintain the same approach according to WOTC's opinion. Mtg'S Final fantasy The set sells $ 200 million worth of products a day, which shows that this UB set is here. But not all cards receive the same treatment.
Whether intentional or not, some new cards Mtg'S Final fantasy The set has been proven to be very powerful in terms of gameplay and has the potential of Spider-Man and two cards. Avatar: Last Air Vendor Follow the lawsuit. All sets have been hit hard, but the UB release is likely to include a pretty strong card that reconstructs the meta in one or multiple forms. This is the case of the Vivi Ornitier, so the wizard on the coast may be banned in November with a bullet.
Magic: The meeting has a wizard -shaped universe beyond the problem
FFVivi Ornitier is broken Magic: MeetingAnd there are few evidence of that opposite. CMC is a cheap card that plays in 3 (1 general, one blue and one red) and has a series of rupture capacity. The first is that the player can generate the iZZET color (blue and red) mana with the power of the same Vivi, and surprisingly, the Mana does not have to tap MANA or VIVI to tap to be activated. The second is that VIVI gets a +1/ +1 counter and allows the owner to fulfill each opponent at 1 damage whenever the owner casts a dagger order.
The restrictions are quite broken because they are “non -creation”, not “instant or magic spells”. In other words, mana rocks, artifacts, magic, etc. can be abused in various ways with one mana can trip. In addition, the mana ability of the card creates a Vivi OP in the IZZET CAULDRON deck. MtgThe standard format can simply deport Bibi from the cemetery and give it to all living things. This also means that the removal of the VIVI of the IZZET CAULDRON deck can be useless and unproductive instead.
Last week's tournament was used with a ridiculous number of BB decks, and this card explained more than 50% of the current meta -share. How strong Vivi Ornitier is, since we considered WOTC's statements in June 2025 Mtg It is fair to assume that VIVI will be banned in connection with the given deck meta domination. In fact, this was used for Kori Steel Cutter and other cards.
Banning a card from the best -selling product in the recent history of the game can be a bad movement in the WOTC section, but if you do not prohibit VIVI, it will be a precedent for all OP cards on the UB set.
But the next possible banned window is in November 2025, and the wizard's wizard says he doesn't really want to have several. Mtg Since it is an annual standard prohibition, it can belong to the first ban window in 2026. However, if WOTC is faithful to its own statement, it must be banned vivi with “prohibition of emergency” due to the control of the standard in November 2025.
The problem is that WOTC can solve the problem by prohibiting accessory cards such as Agatha's Soul Cauldron instead of prohibiting Vivi itself. Since Vivi is actually too strong in terms of importing to the table, it will still be played on the IZZET Prowess deck without Agatha's Soul Cauldron. And in September or November, the other arcy type created by Spider-Man will still be played. avatar Set it Mtg. If the behavior is not taken, the problem may occur permanently, and the release of Errata is to prohibit this card as a standard because it is low and potentially bad for all other formats in all other forms.
Reasons for prohibiting vivi in magic: The Gathering
VIVI is a powerful card that recognizes that even coast designers' magicians have excessive this tournament results and participation. At first it had to be eavesdropping to create mana, and it was a much less interesting card on the spot, but it would have been more balanced. If Magic: MeetingThe new avatar card or Spider -Man card eventually consisted of a meta -shaped itself, and the same discussion is needed in the near future.
The problem is that prohibiting VIVI will cause potential losses, which may be a lost situation on the coastal wizards. Final fantasy It is a set and future UB set, but if you do nothing or do not prohibit accessories cards, the integrity of the game can be damaged. Considering that prohibiting Soul Cauldron in Agatha is especially effective, it is effective only if WOTC does not add other cards to create an OP combo with Vivi.
