Why is [[Flaxen Intruder]] banned?

We definitely discussed Vortex, but let it slide because 1) it affects both players equally and 2) it doesn't turn the mode entirely off, it just imposes an extra cost (albeit it a heavy one). There's a tricky line to draw between cards that get a surprising, temporary turn in the spotlight and cards that do too much, and we try to be permissive when it's close, but it's possible that we'll end up cutting it in the future.
