Timeline

Rationale

Winota, Joiner of Forces was banned in Pioneer due to its high power and consistency, which was deemed to suppress diversity and create frustrating removal-check gameplay within the format. Its ban status was extended to Explorer following the ruling in Pioneer. Regarding Commander, the card was removed from the Game Changers list because it is a commander that is considered a power outlier in lower-bracket play.
