people that have played a lot of commander and been enfranchised in commander culture for a long time have heard countless arguments about the spirit of the format. but one if the more groan-worthy things that comes up is when someone tries to "little guy" or deal make their way into a win at the lgs, or sometimes even in a friend group. like all things, its fun and okay in moderation, but when it becomes a common occurrence and routinely ruins top matches, often trickling down to casual play, you have a serious problem. no amount of bans or unbans can fix a problem with player's attitudes

a lot of the problems i see with cedh discourse start with people going "well, it's not a problem in MY games" and much like how Temple of the False God is bad and Rhystic Study is far too good in light of that, culture problems like this warrant a hard look at how not only are tournament pointings rewarded, but how competitive players approach what is supposed to be the method of playing that is the most competitive, the most cutthroat, and the least concerned with the fractured and shifting mores of other brackets. when content creators and pros alike continuously go "fuck, man. something's gotta change" it's better for the health of the format to try and change it
