Timeline

  • - Released
  • - Status changed to Banned in Pioneer

Rationale

Amalia Benavides Aguirre was banned in both Pioneer and Explorer due to her central role in an overly potent creature-based combo pattern. This specific combo involves multiple life gain triggers and powerful resource generation, which, when combined with synergistic cards like Wildgrowth Walker, has been observed to facilitate highly consistent and challenging gameplay, including instances of infinite trigger loops and draws. The designation aims to prevent this combination of power and consistency from unduly influencing the format's overall play experience.
