Atog
Timeline
Rationale
Atog was banned in the Pauper format due to its contribution to highly impactful and non-interactive combo kills. The card's ability to provide a free, repeated sacrifice outlet was identified as the primary issue, enabling dangerous "count to 20" style kills, particularly when paired with cards like Disciple of the Vault and Fling. The combination of these elements allows powerful combo engines to set up lethal damage within the early stages of the game, necessitating the restriction.
