OMG!! Combat damage is no longer Part of the STACK!!

Player1: "ATTACK!"
*Player1 attacks Player2 with his almighty "Grizzly Bear".
Player2: "HAHA!!! BLOCK!!!"
*Player2 blocks Player1's almighty "Grizzly Bear" with his crazy "Mogg Fanatic".
Player1: "WAHAHA!! Your Mogg Fanatic is no match for my Grizzly Bear!! My Grizzly Bear is 2/2 and your Mogg Fanatic is just a poor 1/1!!"
Player2: "Oh yeah?! Mogg Fanatic will BLOCK your fat Grizzly Bear, so it will take 1 damage, making it 2/1."
Player1: "Yes!! And your Mogg Fanatic will take 1 damage in return!! So my Grizzly Bear will kill that thin Mogg Fanatic of yours!! It will become 1/0 at end of combat!!"
Player2: "Hehe!! That's what you think newbie!! I can sacrifice my Mogg Fanatic before it dies and deal 1 damage to that fat Grizzly Bear of yours!! So your Grizzly Bear is a goner too!!"
Player1: "Huh?! Wait a sec' that's no longer VALID!! Have you read the new rules of MTG since Magic2010 was released?"
Player2: "Ahhh.. Nope..."
Player1: "Oh men.. sigh.."

The Rules of "Magic the Gathering" has changed since the release of Magic2010, and of those changes is "Combat damage is no longer part of the stack".
(Oh my!!) Everyone was shocked with this huge, humungous, gigantic change, since most of the MTG players were used to have combat damage as part of the stack.
Many cards won't be effective with this change, like "mogg fanatic" for example.
"Mogg Fanatic" has been a great card ever since because it can kill a */2 creature, it can even deal 2 damage to player by attacking first and then sacrificing after it attacked.
Now, with the new rule of "Combat damage is no longer part of the stack", "Mogg Fanatic" cannot do those things before, either you make it deal damage first or you sacrifice it.
It will now become just an 1/1 old ass bitch goblin without combat damage being a part of the stack. Others even quit the MTG card game because of this change, they would rather play another card game. As for other players, which do not use such kind of cards, the change was ok, they say it's just right, it's fair.

Well, like so many people say, a change has to be done in order to spice things up.
