Below, Magic R&D’s Brian Hawley explains the reasoning behind the changes.

Bans

Demonic Tutor
Vampiric Tutor
Mystical Tutor
Enlightened Tutor
Imperial Seal

Efficient tutors were one of the big question marks on the initial ban list. Over time, decks have gotten more and more consistent and brutal in a way that we’ve clearly heard players are not enjoying. Our hope is that by lowering the consistency with which the interactive decks can find the perfect answer to the situation, and the combo decks can kill, the format will open up more and decks will play out more differently from game to game.

Baral, Chief of Compliance

Baral is a Commander who comes down extremely early in the game and warps the game around him in a significant way. The cost reduction he offers covers one of the main drawbacks of counterspell-heavy decks because it cuts off the avenue of overloading the Baral deck with multiple spells in the same turn. He also covers one of the primary weaknesses of counterspells in 100-card singleton formats by filtering away the powerful but situational counterspells you’re forced to play. The overall package has shown to be overly strong and not enjoyable.

Emrakul, the Aeons Torn

Emrakul has shown her influence in this format the same as she has in many formats over time. Primarily used in Polymorph combo decks, and also providing an “I win” option for heavy green ramp decks, Emrakul is too reliable an avenue to ending the game without recourse for the opponent. While the simultaneous removal of Baral removes the currently predominant use for the card, any cheap blue Commander would easily fill that role, and opening up more late-game interaction still means Emrakul warrants a ban.

Unban

Arcum Dagsson
Yisan, the Wanderer Bard

We’re still seeking to be somewhat conservative with unbanning cards and would like to see how the format adapts before adding a slew of cards to the format, but neither of these Commanders are obviously superior to existing options. Arcum in particular stood out as weak, and we hope that this unban may open up some additional space.

Non, j'ai continué sur le main event.

une idée du format qui sera présenté lors du prochain GP Lyon en février?

Ça sera du MTGO.
Je ne vois pas pourquoi il en serait différemment

Il va quand meme falloir admettre et réaliser que tous les sides event commander , vont desormais etre en mtgo..

c'est le seul format "semi officiel" je ne vois pas pourquoi ils mettraient dans un GP un format "totalement non officiel" a la place

Non mais à terme nos formats alternatifs disparaîtront j'espère que les gens commencent à l'accepter :)

Bien que le métagame MTGO peut nettement s'améliorer, ceci reste intéressant à jouer:

Par contre, le ban de chrome mox serait pas trop mal.
La carte est jouée 73 % des decks.

Je n'en suis pas si certains.
Les différents formats peuvent très bien coexister, ce qui est le cas avec le DC et le Leviathan qui reprend les rennes du défunt DC30pv.

L'officialisation pèse lourd, mais la popularité, le soutien et le suivi d'un format peuvent suffir.
On le voit bien avec le Leviathan ou encore le Tiny Leaders, bien que nettement moins populaires que le DC, les formats continuent d'exister quoi qu'on en dise, et je trouve qu'avoir du choix est une bonne chose : chacun y trouve son compte.
