Weirdly I find Omnath (not Uro) to be the actual problem
Yeah omnath needs to go, it can win easily without the opp drawing an uro the whole game. So while uro keeps them alive and helps the deck a lot it can work without it.
But without omnath the deck would cease to exist. It would be just simic again but without nissa it wouldn't be as good.

Good removal incentivizes ETB/Death effects and creates a situation where any creature that dies to removal without benefiting you has no place... which is already kind of true most of the time.
What I would love to see, though, if only for the relative novelty, is a standard format where the removal is good but EVERYTHING “dies to removal”. No usable indestructible or hexproof on a stick, no good ETB/Death triggers, no good self-reanimating, no resilient control finishers. Everyone is forced to win by playing more threats than the opponent plays answers.
That last part is pretty much limited, where you play more creatures than the opp has removal.

That's why standard is arena only for me, I'm not buying cards to make standard decks anymore, will just stick to making pioneer decks and playing my modern deck.
Standard costs too much money and the format is wild as hell.

Yeah uro had his day in the sun so it's about time to bite it, all the answers they printed for it are not enough obviously. Also we'll have this 5 set standard until January, that's a long time.
