Brawl Post-Ban Watch

Brawl has six new bans, while Marvel Arena testing needs paper checks

Wizards banned Force of Will, Subtlety, Wash Away, Ugin's Labyrinth, Time Warp, and Temporal Manipulation in Brawl on June 29, 2026. Marvel Super Heroes is also live on Arena, so Brawl testing can make The Mind Stone, Ultron, Squirrel Girl, Tony Stark, Thor, and King T'Challa show up in searches before paper sales settle.

These labels are for Brawl only. Competitive Brawl had no June 29 changes, so do not merge those rules with casual Arena Brawl when checking legality or price confidence.

Brawl banned six cards on June 29, but Force of Will, Subtlety, Time Warp, and Temporal Manipulation still have demand from other formats. Check format, version, condition, and fresh sold copies before treating a post-ban listing as the new price.

Use Arena Brawl results to decide which Marvel cards deserve a closer look, then check paper set code, collector number, finish, and seller inventory before trusting the price. Competitive Brawl should remain separate if it is modeled later.
