It's only a matter of time until Pioneer is available on Arena, and when it finally does become available players can expect some of the same treatment that Standard and Historic gets on the platform. One such feature of having an online platform is letting people play test what it would be like if certain cards were removed from a format without actually banning the cards. This is what the MTG Arena team has dubbed "Shakeups". They choose a number of cards to be removed from either Standard or Historic and then sit back and watch.
Now what if this feature was available in Pioneer? What cards would be removed and how would the format settle without them? This week the First Pioneers chose which cards had the biggest impact on the Pioneer format and removed them to see how Pioneer would react. Does the new version of the format still seem enjoyable? Do your favorite cards survive? And last but not least, is your 'jank' now playable? (short answer is probably not ;) ). Be sure to listen to this week's podcast and join us on Twitter and Discord to share what decks you would play during a "Pioneer Shakeup"!
