Skullclamp
After weighting up various arguments for and against the unban of Skullclamp, the Council has decided to lay the focus on Jitte as a potential candidate for the unban. Skullclamp neither got enough votes for an unban, nor enough votes for its Watchlist position, and also community surveys did not justify the idea of Skullclamp in the format. Should the request for the resumption of the discussions arise again, we ask for appropriate feedback and the participation in unbiased surveys around this card and will, if necessary, add it to the Unabn Watchlist again.

Council
We are aware that a Council member should have some example function in terms of visibility, teamwork, reliability and general interest across communities connected to the format. Therefore, we saw us forced to make internal changes in the Council and put our hopes in a new member. We thank Christoph for the many years of cooperation and want to introduce Max Hofer. Max has already prove himself at various tournaments and attracted attention with his open, friendly and interested nature. We look forward to the time together and warmly welcome him in the Council!
