Decks that only aim to combo out and are completely indifferent to anything you are doing are a bane on the game and the reason I would exclusively play limited if it were an option.
I wish wotc would aggressively ban the key pieces of these decks that let them basically cast half their deck after resolving a single 3 mana spell.
Wotc can do this, sure... so long as they restrict it to BO1. In BO3, decks needing to run a couple pieces of hate/interaction in the sideboard to deal with a linear combo is good for the health if the game, if anything. (If that's still not enough, then sure, ban it globally. But BO1 and BO3 are fundementally different games.)
