Magic has 300 creature types, and there are new ones every single day. That’s not too surprising for a game that is 32 years old, and it’s certainly not a bad thing to have so many cool types of creatures. However, over the years I think there are a few exceptionally cool creature types that have fallen through the cracks, …
Bonus sheets in Limited are a hotly contested topic. Do they make a format more exciting, or ruin it completely? After drafting a lot of Edge of Eternities, I can safely say that my mind is made up: they finally nailed how to do a bonus sheet without compromising Limited. EDGE OF ETERNITIES STELLAR SIGHTS The Stellar Sights bonus sheet …

Around the time of Tarkir: Dragonstorm, I reinstalled Arena, as I missed getting to do drafts as often as I used to.

By this point in history we’ve seen literally hundreds of variations on the original Counterspell, and you can still rely on at least one or two new ones appearing in every set. Of course, not all counter-magic is created equal. In …

This often leads to cards that were once viewed as useless or uninteresting suddenly getting a major upgrade, sometimes decades after originally being printed. So, get out your shoe boxes …

Always having a reliable play for two mana can be really strong, and some of the strongest Commanders in the format – like Kinnan and Arabella – are two mana. Here are 10 Underrated two mana Commanders to try out. They’re a lot …

He gives all of your creatures haste, and all of your Artifacts and red creature cards can be Warped for two generic and a red. …
The most common type of math we talk about in Commander is land counts. I’m not going to go over this one again, as it’s well trodden ground, but I quite liked Rebell’s latest video on it. Instead, I want to talk about how math can help your deck even when you’re not being sweaty. SWEATY MATH If you’re thinking …
