Hey guys, great podcast as always. I personally use EDH Rec for every deck i'm building but to give me a overview in what directions the deck can go. In the end I use about 70 % of the cards on edh rec and for the rest I give the deck my own spin or use cards I know always work in my meta or I have to put in to don't go down. I found that Manglehorn is a nice new edition for green decks to battle early artifact ramp. But to talk about bannings I personally would ban Sol Ring. In my opinion I always feel bad if my opponent hammers out a turn 1 Sol Ring. You feel so far behind. And it is the only super ramp without drawback. Of course you can put artifact hate in your deck. But I always feel bad to use my 2 to 5 Mana artifact removal on a Sol Ring.

well considering its a 100 card deck the chances of drawing it is minimal, so I personally don't think it needs to be banned.

It also doesn't throw the balance of the game out the window.

I think there are a lot of interesting ways to further analyze the data. For instance: Penetration % per $1 of value to get a more evenly rated list, Penetration % per year to see if EDH Rec is driving decks to be more homogeneous, etc.
