    Haven’t played mtg in years, but I think even I’ve heard of Nadu. That’s the super OP card everyone’s been talking about, right?

    Looking it up, it does seem pretty damn good. I feel like they’ve done this before with OP 3-cost blue or green cards, at least I have a vague memory of such, I think…

      Oko, Thief of Crowns and Uro, Titan of Nature’s Wrath are probably what you’re thinking of (and they’re both stupid).

      WotC came out and said “Nadu was designed with EDH in mind, so we didn’t think it would be abused in Modern,” to which everyone pointed out Lightning Greaves is one of the most played cards in the format.

        Oko was 100% the main one I was thinking of, because I think that was around the last time I dabbled in mtg online. With the damn elk. It was in every freaking deck lol. Uro also looks insane, think I had heard of that one more secondhand. How do they keep making the same mistake? That’s hilarious that that’s happened multiple times won’t that combination and cost.
