the only card I've gotten sick of in Prismatic is Grim Harvest  ... but that's because I generally play PPS and it just sucks the fun out of the rest of the match. Most 'answers' to it are niche in the extreme, not to mention, largely untutorable given the PPS restrictions. Not that it's really ban worthy or anything, just one of those unfun, frustrating cards. But I concur... free the Witness!

While I don't really play PPS (I have been intending to build a deck, but haven't got to it yet), I can see how this would be the case. However, I don't believe that Wizards should make B/R decisions for the Prismatic format based on PPS. Not that I thought you meant it that way, Hammy. I know you are intelligent enough not to think that way.
Just mentioning the issue because there are probably many cards which are ban worthy in offshoot formats like PPS, Pris Singleton, or Multiplayer; but the B/R list needs to be made with the tournament format in mind and participants of the player created subformats can make their own restrictions otherwise the B/R list becomes a complete mess.
PS - I would imagine that the unbanning of transmute gives a few more options to PPS to deal with hard to deal with cards like Grim Harvest or Guardian of the Guildpact  .

Well, I've thrown together a Prismatic Singelton deck from the two new Commander Theme Decks and the FTV: Exiled cards I already owned. Filled in the blanks with analogues and tried to play it as Classic (due to the Banned cards involved), with a Prismatic Singleton Description. All joiners so far have been playing 60-card Classic decks, but since they have been Casual Classic (as opposed to Cutthroat Classic), the 250 card 5-Color Singleton has been holding it's own. All games thus far have been very close, and the new cards in the pool are just fun to play. Bring Back Prismatic!
