Timeline

Rationale

Amped Raptor was banned in Modern to reduce the overall win and play percentages of Boros Energy. The card was specifically chosen because it exclusively appears within the Boros Energy archetype, making it a single point of focus for balancing. Its function as an energy enabler and payoff allows the deck to achieve explosive early-game starts.
