bloodstonegoth asked: Have we already seen the reason for the lack of graveyard interactions in Standard (Amonkhet having graveyard mechanics, like Embalm), or shall we still wait?

Amonkhet has a strong graveyard component. We always try to be careful not to undercut an upcoming block’s themes. It’s why Shadows over Innistrad block didn’t strongly hose artifacts as it was followed by Kaladesh.
