September's Balance Team Announcement

by Charlie Plaine, Director of First Edition

8th September 2020

Welcome to the First Monday - delayed one day because of the holiday - of the month, September 8th, the day that the Department of First Edition issues balance updates. Typically, this includes the release of errata, updates to the OTF Ban List, and changes to the Watch List. Following on the heels of a short August update, we have a similarly short September change.

Errata and Ban List Updates
Enemies of the State was banned in July to remove it from the pool while it was addressed. While we'd hoped to have it out for August, there was some delay in getting the final wording approved. Fortunately, that delay is resolved now and this card returns to the card pool today with errata, and is no longer banned in OTF play. The card now features a countdown, slightly easier requirements, and better wording to remove the associated glossary entry.

And now that the card has updated text, it is hereby removed from the Official Tournament Format (OTF) Ban List as of today as well. Enjoy having this card back in the environment!

Regular updates to errata, the OTF Ban List, and the Watch List are scheduled for the First Monday of each month. The next scheduled update is Monday, October 5th, 2020.
