Excerpt from: The 10 Greatest Boogeymen from MTG History by Brian Demars

Robophobia (Fear of Robots), 2004

I wanted to spread the lists out, but there’s just no way of getting around the fact that Mirrodin Block was an absurdly broken block. Both Extended Tinker and Ravager Affinity are in the discussion for most dominant decks of all time in their respective formats.

Ravager Affinity dominated the World Championship even after the banning of Skullclamp.

I’ve seen a lot of broken decks and formats, but the Ravager Affinity era was the one point in time where I worried Magic might actually die because of a mass exodus of players quitting due to frustration and lack of strategic diversity.

The deck that won the event, RG Freshmaker (essentially an anti Ravager Affinity deck), was a close match up, which wasn’t helped by the fact that Paquette’s sideboard was 15 cards for the mirror. The DCI’s play, after already banning Skullclamp, was to hit the doomsday button and ban nearly all the cards in the deck.
