Rationale

Alrund's Epiphany was banned in Standard to address concerns regarding metagame diversity and excessive play patterns. The card was singled out for its potential to create frustrating experiences by chaining extra turns, a challenge intensified by its foretell ability, which limited traditional forms of interaction such as hand disruption. This ban was implemented to create space within the metagame for more mid-speed and slow archetypes, promoting greater variety among available strategies.
