https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/on-the-future-of-commander

So today, in partnership with members of the existing Rules Committee, we are announcing that the Rules Committee is giving management of the Commander format to the game design team of Wizards of the Coast.

We have opened a new Discord channel on the official Magic Discord (in the #Commander_News channel) and will also have a WeeklyMTG stream talking about this tomorrow, October 1, at 10 a.m. PT on Twitch.tv/Magic.

We will also be evaluating the current banned card list alongside both the Commander Rules Committee and the community. We will not ban additional cards as part of this evaluation. While discussion of the banned list started this, immediate changes to the list are not our priority.

They are also working on new guidelines for the powerlevel of commander decks.

Here's the idea: There are four power brackets, and every Commander deck can be placed in one of those brackets by examining the cards and combinations in your deck and comparing them to lists we'll need community help to create. You can imagine bracket one is the baseline of an average preconstructed deck or below and bracket four is high power. 
For example, you could imagine bracket one has cards that easily can go in any deck, like Swords to Plowshares, Grave Titan, and Cultivate, whereas bracket four would have cards like Vampiric Tutor, Armageddon, and Grim Monolith, cards that make games too much more consistent, lopsided, or fast than the average deck can engage with.

The Dawn of War 1 Intro is still the best depiction of 40k

This one right here.

Let me get on my soap box for a bit: I love this intro. Not just because it's a big hit from the nostalgia bong, but also because it's 40k as I like my 40k.

In many (modern) depictions, the marines are too ... competent? Sure, they're always outnumbered and fight against impossible odds and that whole spiel. But 1v1, marines are almost always shown as mopping the floor with whatever they face. mowing down dozens of enemy minions is totally normal.

not here. we meet the marines while they're getting pummeled. they hunker behind some debris, bullets flying overhead, explosions around them. they're hunkering down, they're flinching from mortars, they take a few potshots while still keeping their heads down. totally different than the modern Space Marine that doesn't really take cover anymore.

once the marines charge and the orks counter-charge, things get super messy and I love it. It's no noble fight by angelic warriors. It's a brutal, bloody brawl. Blood and gore. Absurdity by that cigar-smoking ork torching the heavy bolter marine. awesome.

Once the dreadnought blows up, things get even more absurd. Only the sergeant left. He sees the banner lying in the dirt. Even as the sole survivor (for now), he picks it up and plants it in the top of the hill before he (and the banner) get riddeled with holes.

In the end, what did the marines achieve?

nothing. and I love it. dozens of supersoldiers are dead, a tank destroyed, a dreadnought blown up. For what? a dirty hill with a dirty flag in it. the orks still hold that hill. Yes, drop pod reinforcements are coming. But I never read it as "now the orks are gonna get it" but as the motto of the game itself: Eternal war. this isn't going to end. Ever. Even if the marines return and die by the dozens more, what then? They're gonna push the orks off that precious hill, and then the orks will return and the whole thing will start again.

it's so futile. It's so pointless. And I love that about 40k.

The fox is now guarding the hen house

Wizards of the Coast has been given management of the commander format. All because of some loud vocal minority making death threats, who chose to view the game as an investment vehicle.

The bullies won, this is truly the worst possible outcome that could've happened. Without an intermediary, the community will now have no advocate to push back against WotC's worst tendencies. Them printing these cash cow cards is the whole reason we ended up in this situation.

The Rules Committee's primary concern was the health of the format, while WotC's primary concern is making money.

Just read between the lines of their statement:

We will also be evaluating the current banned card list alongside both the Commander Rules Committee and the community. We will not ban additional cards as part of this evaluation. While discussion of the banned list started this, immediate changes to the list are not our priority.

Calling it now: within 6 months they will unban Mana Crypt and Jeweled Lotus by throwing them in some 'power level bracket' that will supposedly fix the crutch we label as 'rule zero'.
