As for the bannings I agree with banning most of them...lol
I have yet to face a survival of the fittest or a Kikki Jikki in this league but i know their evilness. Crucible I think should definatly go as should mind twist in my opinion. Skul clamp isnt that bad in this format and I agree with the same reasons you mentiond for why it sould stay. And as for the tutors bannign some may be good but I have come to notice that searching for things is a large part of comander, so definatly not bann all if any, but I can go either way on that one. I do miss sol ring already though lol....

I think survival is too strong since it just kinda combos with itself Kiki-jiki im hesitant on but i understand the loops that it can do and why it would be banned

Will Sol Ring be unbanned for the next tourney? Or would the bannings used for this tournament still be in effect for the next one?

Though for a bad sol ring there would always be Ancient Tomb

I think Sol Ring being banned has had a positive effect on this week's event. I haven't seen any of the dumb explosiveness that it usually leads to, which ultimately is the goal of "leveling the playing field" for everyone involved to get a fair shake. Believe me though, I do miss my Mana Crypt & Sol Ring haha. Ancient Tomb is definitely the fair sol ring though.

I do want to make it clear though that while I'm not trying to hinder combo(in faact, I enjoy attempting to assemble a combo more often than not) but I would rather see combo that is possible to interact with. If Kiki-Jiki didn't have Haste, this would be a totally different situation. If only. But, again, I can understand why the RC mentioned that Kiki-Jiki is a serious contendre for banning on Sept. 20th(way more than Kokusho should ever be on that list).

What is your opinion on the two cards up for banning the_arend?

Regarding survival, think it is situational, in the right deck it is a game ender.

Kiki Jiki though is a different story (or mr splinter twin on a stick). Was waiting for this card to get a ban for a while now. Most of the online commander games, even the 4 player games, if you get kiki out it is 90% game if nobody has a counter for it. As a commander it is ridiculous, especially the infinite champion a goblin combo. In a deck with alot of tutors (looking at you grixis control and the like), even more ridiculous, can search up all the combo pieces needed for kiki to work.

Alrighty then. It looks like an overwhelming majority of the people agree with a ban on Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker. And Survival looks as if no one is in approval of it remaining on the list, so I guess we now have two more cards to add to the list.
