With Emrakul at the top of every midrange/ ramp decks curve, powerful cards like Noxious Gearhulk, Chandra, Flamecaller and Sorin, Grim Nemesis were outclassed. I do think there are a few big Standard winners from these bans. The card has also been a part of the best aggressive- midrange decks throughout its life in Standard and is a frustrating card to play against. Reflector Mage is a bit less obvious of a ban but I think they wanted to remove a card from the Jeskai Saheeli Rai – Felidar Guardian decks without just straight banning the combo. Emrakul’s effect also led to a helpless feeling that was really fun and interesting at first but got old pretty fast. Emrakul, the Promised End and Smuggler’s Copter were the best cards at their spots on the curve and stymied deck diversity. Yesterday, WotC ( Wizards of the Coast) announced bans in the two most popular formats, Standard and Modern.
