The new state of Modified

    May 17th, 2002, The full Legendary Collections set was reveiled. A set that will change modified forver and bring in the newest format of Pokemon, Modified Modified Format(MMF).  A Format which will kill the whole Rocket sets, and the Gym Heroes/Challenge sets will also be removed from Modified. It will simply be Neo Block-LC. People are saying: "Oh no!! I'm going to lose now!" That's not all true. For if you look at LC it's not really that strong.  People have been saying: "Wizards Screwed up badly this time." or "Why did they put Breeder in it, that's totally crazy." Well, I'll tell you why. Wizards didn't screw up, if you look closely, you can see that there are actually equal stregths now in Modified. The fire has been destined to make a return, and has, The grass getting some very new valuable Pokemon, the only type that was been getting really left out is...Water. Dark Blastoise is nothing compared to Blastoise, yet, think for a second.  Most people say that "Blastoise is broken." No, it isn't.  It's just a fast deck and you all know it.  You complain about it and whine about it because you LOSE from it.  Anyway, back to the Article, Blastoise wouldn't be strong in Modified as to opposed to Unlimited.  It wouldn't be as quick without it's Oaks, Computer Searches, Item Finders, etc.  That's the only part Wizards screwed up on. And maybe the part that Wigglytuff wasn't in the set.  But anyway, Wizards was trying to balance the game, balance the types, They weren't trying to hurt it, only fix it. I think the new state of Modified will be awesome, but too many competitive decks now. Fire is way too strong.
