To be sure, upcoming additions like Modern Horizons 3 will have a large impact on Historic, bringing many powerful new cards. We like the fundamental power space that Historic is occupying, however, and we don't want to shift that by a huge leap, so we'll continue to manage what cards enter the format, as you saw with the pre-banned Enchanting Tale cards. Chiefly, we want to ensure that Historic stays balanced, diverse, and fun for a wide range of players.

Probably a good thing, the MH cards were some of the biggest power jumps for Historic, but MH sets still have some of the coolest designs. Curious to see what makes the cut

We are also starting to accumulate several cards that are too powerful or disruptive for Historic, which is something we are thinking about.

Man, I hope this means Bowmasters/Ring are getting looked at because they are miserable
