The DCI has ruled....You’ve been banned!

This week Bryan and James talk about the history of magic bans.  This was inspired by the impending ban of Hogaak.  We talk about why you would decide to play Hogaak in its last weeks.  Then get into the first modern bans then work through all the major bans to now.  Then we review the standard bans that happened during the last few years.  Finally, we check in with the arena meta.
