A New Outlook on the B/R List

Heya,

Over the last few weeks Tom LaPille wrote two articles explaining how the DCI looks at Vintage. They categorise it into five "pillars": Force of Will/Mana Drain, Mishra's Workshop, Bazaar of Baghdad, Dark Ritual, and Null Rod. Future B/R modifications will be based on this outlook and attempt to balance each pillar against the others. Therefore I thought it might be useful to attempt to organize the B/R list according to Pillar rather than function or color. Here's my first try:

Force-Drain

* Ancestral Recall
* Time Walk
* Timetwister
* Tinker
* Gifts Ungiven
* Fact Or Fiction
* Brainstorm
* Gush
* Ponder
* Mystical Tutor
* Merchant Scroll
* Frantic Search
* Thirst For Knowledge
* Flash* Yawgmoth’s Will
* Demonic Tutor
* Vampiric Tutor
* Imperial Seal* Fastbond
* Channel
* Regrowth
* Time Vault
* Tolarian Academy
* Library Of Alexandria

Ritual

* Ancestral Recall
* Mind’s Desire* Windfall
* Brainstorm
* Ponder
* Mystical Tutor
* Time Twister
* Ancestral Recall
* Yawgmoth’s Will
* Yawgmoth’s Bargain
* Necropotence
* Demonic Tutor
* Vampiric Tutor
* Imperial Seal
* Demonic Consultation
* Burning Wish
* Wheel Of Fortune
* Lion’s Eye Diamond
* Memory Ja
* Tolarian Academy

Workshop

* Ancestral Recall
* Time Walk
* Tinker
* Thirst For Knowledge
* Demonic Tutor
* Balance
* Trinisphere
* Tolarian Academy
* Strip Mine

Bazaar

* Vampiric Tutor
* Imperial Seal

Null Rod

* Ancestral Recall
* Tinker
* Ponder
* Mystical Tutor
* Brainstorm
* Vampiric Tutor
* Imperial Seal
* Strip Mine
* Library Of Alexandria

All

* Demonic Tutor
* Black Lotus
* Mox Emerald
* Mox Jet
* Mox Pearl
* Mox Ruby
* Mox Sapphire
* Sol Ring
* Mana Crypt
* Lotus Petal

Any feedback?

Peace,

-Troy
