Timeline

Rationale

Psychic Frog was banned in Legacy due to its high efficiency within reanimator strategies, providing a reliable threat while generating value when drawing expensive reanimation targets. The card's power level restricts the diversity of reanimator variants, encouraging players to consolidate into a tight Dimir shell; this lack of flexibility was also cited regarding Dimir Murktide. The ban was enacted to increase the overall diversity among existing archetypes without eliminating them from the format.
