Test of Endurance
Timeline
Rationale
The banning status of Test of Endurance has historically been tied to general concerns about powerful life total cards in the format. Following discussions regarding general life total mechanisms, the card was classified as a potential issue due to its ability to facilitate winning the game. However, the rationale against its unrestricted use was deemed insufficient, as the committee concluded that success with the card required significant setup and sustained life total management across multiple opponents, establishing it as a strategy that was possible but not overwhelmingly broken for the format.
