Fateseal is just OK
Bounce a creature is sometimes really awful (etbs)
Brainstorm ain't the powerhouse it is in Legacy
Lack of free protection makes it hard to slam it on 4 (even new Force doesn't stop counters or removal on your turn)
Lack of actual Brainstorm and good top of deck manipulation makes Miracles a variance lottery.
I still jam him in my blue decks, but he often feels like the worst card I can cast most of the time, and is really only there as a win condition for grindy games because most win conditions are even worse.
I'm sorry but +2 is pretty broken, as is +0 brainstorm, doesn't matter the format as long as it has fetches.
There can be several reasons why JTMS doesn't shine in modern but the brokenness of his abilities can't be one.
More creatures in Modern, blue is busted in Legacy, and Force of Will
If this is a sneeky breeky way to make people more aware that Force of Negation is a damn good card then I agree
Hahaha, bingo, pro points for you!
Yeah, I agree it's pretty much what everyone has said, less creatures, maybe less burn, and fow. How much weight each of those things represents in the scale is hard to know, but I think fow is the main one.
I wanted to open a discussion about the reasons why, so far, Jace TMS is better in legacy than it is in Modern, since, you know, most cards that are good in legacy should be even better in modern.
