Magic players love Ravnica sets. The plane has 10 separate two-color factions tasked with doing different things to maintain order. These separate factions, the flavor behind them, and their internal synergies are what Magic players love the most about Ravnica. Overall, if a set is on the plane of Ravnica, it’s been a real crowd pleaser. However there is one …
Universes Beyond: Assassins’ Creed releases July 5th, and you’ll be able to get your hands on cards celebrating the rich lore and tropes of Assassin’s Creed. Which cards are worth a look for your Commander decks? Kristen has a Commander Set Review to fill you in. You can find other recent Commander set reviews here: UNIVERSES BEYOND: ASSASSIN’S CREED According …
Modern Horizons 3 is now available, and the real brewing has started. Though many of the more popular build-arounds from the set, like Tamiyo and Sorin, are seeing a lot of Modern interest too, there are plenty of cards that are less interesting for Modern, and so are enjoying some nice low prices. Here are 10 cards we’ve picked out …
Visions is an important set in the history of Magic. Not only was it part of Magic’s very first cohesive Block (Mirage Block), it also introduced enter-the-battlefield abilities. Love them or hate them, these days tons of creatures come with ETB abilities, and it all started with Visions. However, when it comes to Commander, Visions isn’t exactly a set filled …
When you’re short on time or have already played a long drawn out game of Commander, the table often agrees that the last game of the night should be a fast game of Commander. But what exactly is a fast game of Commander? I don’t know about you, but most Commander sessions I play in have one or two games …
Universes Beyond: Assassin’s Creed releases on July 5, with preview season officially starting June 18. For fans of the games, it’s looking to be an exciting and authentic dive into the alternate history the AC weaves. Even if you’re not a fan of the “Animus” showcase frame (which we think looks really cool, actually), the borderless art and just the …
Modern Horizons 3 releases on June 14th. Like its predecessors, it is filled to the brim with references to past Magic: the Gathering cards and events. While many of these are just done for the sake of meta humor, there are also some more practical reasons they did this. While one of the goals of Modern Horizons 3 is to …
Modern Horizons 3 brings something new to the table: four Commander precons. But what if you’re just looking for upgrades to existing decks? Kristen has her pick of the highlights from the precons. With some very distinct mechanical themes – Eldrazi, Energy, Lhurgoyfs and Lands – the majority of the new cards in the precons are very specifically geared toward …
Modern Horizons 3 marks for a departure from the standardized Modern Horizons 3 release: It’s shipping with 4 Commander Decks. Graveyard Overdrive is a love-letter to Jund, filled with Lhurgoyfs, making Tarmogoyf tokens, and otherwise junding-’em-out. How is it out of the box? What tweaks can kick things up a notch? Let’s get our hands dirty and find out. NEW …
What’s this? Commander precon decks (like Creative Energy) in MY Modern Horizons set?!? In the current Commander-forward era of Magic, it’s more likely than you’d think. Confusing product names aside, I think that it actually makes good sense to release new precons alongside MH3. The main, Constructed portion of the set has a strong focus on supporting some specific mechanics …
