Rationale

Urza, Lord High Artificer was placed on the Game Changers list for Commander to flag a legendary creature that could significantly impact low-power brackets, such as Exhibition or Core. Following a review of the list's philosophy, the Commander Format Panel removed Urza, citing that a commander's power level alone is insufficient reason for inclusion on the Game Changers list; rather, the list is intended for cards that dramatically warp the game by facilitating combo pieces, blocking abilities, or providing unique resource advantage regardless of its use as a commander.
