The official Magic: The Gathering <\/em>Banned and Restricted announcement that was scheduled for Aug. 7 has left many in the community surprised over no bans and two cards getting unbanned in the Modern and Legacy formats.<\/p>
Leading up to the launch of Wilds of Eldraine<\/em><\/a>, WotC addressed any format changes needed heading into the 2023-2024 season. The Banned and Restricted announcement that took place on Aug. 7 was the first of its kind, with Standard Rotation getting altered forever<\/a>, starting with the 2023-2024 season. No cards were banned in any MTG<\/em> format, though. Instead, Preordain from the Modern format and Mind’s Desire in Legacy were both unbanned.<\/p>
