==Banned and Restricted cards==
* <c>Omnath, Locus of Creation</c> was the fourth in the series of the ever-expanding Omnath legendary creatures, adding White mana to the Temur combination. Despite the four-color mana cost it became trivially easy to cast, and the base rate of a 4/4 that draws a card and gains 4 life every turn turned aggro from a traditionally bad matchup to a laughably easy one. Decks quickly built to exploit Omnath to its full potential, with <c>Lotus Cobra</c> managing the color requirements and <c>Escape to the Wilds</c> or <c>Genesis Ultimatum</c> being ways to continuously hit four or five land drops a turn, playing almost as a Storm deck. The deck was weakened with the <c>Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath</c> banning, but that merely took away one avenue of long-game inevitability, and controlling a deck with so much mana was nearly impossible. A second build hybridized Omnath with the Adventures deck, making a ramp strategy with enough interaction that only the pure Omnath ramp decks would overpower. After a 70% metagame domination at the 2020 Grand Finals, Omnath was banned alongside <c>Lucky Clover</c> (part of the Omnath Adventures shell) and <c>Escape to the Wilds</c>.
==Miscellaneous==
*<c>Charix, the Raging Isle</c> has the highest printed toughness of any [[Black border|black-bordered]] creature at 17.
*Years seemingly have passed for the <c>Teeterpeak Ambusher</c>, improving his skills and equipment, but using the same method since he was a <c>Reckless Bushwhacker</c> in ''[[Rise of the Eldrazi]]'' and a just a young <c>Goblin Bushwhacker</c> in the ''[[Zendikar]]'' set.
