I would like to see Vexing Bauble, Psychic Frog and something from Eldrazi go. But I don’t think wizards will do more than two bans for legacy, so everyone is going to get run over by colorless monsters for a while.
One Ring and something from energy in Modern (Phlage or Amped Raptor make sense to me), Legacy needs a step down. Frog is likely to go, I think fleshraker makes a ton of sense to hit eldrazi and the forge deck, I've felt for a while that daze could go too
I know it's incredibly unlikely, but I'd love to see another unban. Mind's desire has been a lot of fun! What about earthcraft? Make enchantress okayish again!
Modern:
•The OneRing. A significant portion of the meta feels the need to play 4x, it needs to go
Legacy:
•PsychicFrog (duh)
•VexingBauble has enabled combo decks to insulate against counter magic, regardless of colour
•Kozilek’s Command. Designed for modern with lower early/mid values for X
I’m only going to speak for legacy. I want to see a nice full rebalancing. Reanimate, vexing bauble (gonna miss this one), sowing mycospawn, psychic frog, glaring fleshraker, and nadu (mostly for tournament play reasons).
Nuke the rancid mess from orbit and see what shakes out.
For Legacy, I'd love to see at least Psychic Frog, Entomb, and Vexing Bauble leave the format. Personally, I also wouldn't be opposed to a significantly larger hit that takes out Kozilek's Command/Mycospawn, Broadside Bombardiers, The One Ring, etc.
as you said the other day, heavy-handed and format-shifting bans need to happen. legacy has such a rich collection of cards to choose from, and it's definitely at it's best when the deck pool reflects the vast amounts of archetypes that have risen over it's history.
I know it's too late for the prize, but eh whatever.
Modern: Something from energy. Ocelot, Guide, or if Wizards wants to go small, Prison or Raptor.
Legacy: I don't think frog is going, only Bauble will.
Otherwise, no changes.
Pipe dream..?: Errata one ring for flavor and balance to be 1 in a deck.
I would like a couple changes to standard: Sheoldred because it punishes every draw starting turn 4; Either monstrous rage or Heartfire hero since red/x aggro is one of the best decks in standard already. Up the beanstalk because of overlords.

Frog
Troll - make reanimator play lands
Would love to see The One Ring go, but if Vexing Bauble goes I’m a lot less scared of it.
Legacy: ban Frog, Fleshraker, and Entomb

Legacy:

•VexingBauble has enabled combo decks to insulate against counter magic, regardless of colour

Expect: Psychic Frog and Nadu in Legacy (good but not enough)

Alternatively, they should unban stuff. just say fuck it and give us birthing pod and splinter twin back.
It would destroy the format, but it would be immensely funny if they would unban second sunrise (I'd think it was funny at least, I love eggs)
legacy is just awesome!
Modern: Something from energy. Ocelot, Guide, or if Wizards wants to go small, Prison or Raptor.
Legacy: I don't think frog is going, only Bauble will.

Pioneer: no changes
Modern: One ring and guide of souls ban 🙏
Pioneer: Fable of the mirror breaker.
