The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth is right around the corner with previews starting next week on May 30. We’re here to round up everything we know about the set so you can be prepared for Magic’s journey into one of the most impactful fantasy settings of all time! The Story Settle in, this may take a while. …
Mana rituals! These distinctive, potent and strategically narrow cards are most often used to accelerate the endgame of combo decks. Perhaps due to that dangerous power, new rituals have become something of a rare sight in recent sets, no longer something Wizards of the Coast’s design team feels needs to feature prominently in Magic. However, they are an elemental building …
As has become tradition for big events these days, Wizards of the Coast used MagicCon Minneapolis to give players their first previews of the upcoming Doctor Who Commander decks, set the tone for the Wilds of Eldraine, show off face cards in the Commander Masters precons and begin tempting us with another look at Lord of the Rings: Tales of …
March of the Machine is basically here and there are a lot of new cards that are strong role players in decks! After looking at some highlights that might break through Modern last week, today we are going over some others to see how they change entire Modern decks. Kethis Combo Today’s article is starting out with a bit of …
As we rapidly approach the release of March of the Machine, it is time once again to break down the best cards for Modern. This set has a lot of cards with a ton of text and power, but also an above average set of mana values. Normally that might be a conversation-ender, but higher mana values matter less right …

That’s why you won’t see the famous archetype on this list of the best Aggro decks in Modern despite the fact that it’s still around and seeing play. …
It’s finally here! Our first look at the new Universes Beyond Lord of the Rings set! Players have been waiting with bated breath; Is this the new Modern Horizons 3? Will it have any good cards? How will this straight-to-Modern set change things? Well today we are going to take a look on the wild side and see what are …
Four-color is back! Since the banning of Yorion back in the fall, players have tried to make four-color work. On a few occasions it has succeeded, however, ultimately the deck quickly fell off the competitive radar as decks like Breach, Hammer and Murktide dominated the metagame. However with the release of All Will Be One, a new card was added …
It has been a bit since I’ve updated Card Kingdom’s Modern tier list, and with Star Charlotte Games Con Charlotte coming up this weekend, it seems like a great time to do so. When Modern is healthy, a cyclical metagame tends to develop. For example, if we start with the efficient end of the spectrum, decks like Murktide, Hammer and …
A few weeks ago I wrote about what I thought was the Modern best card from each color in Phyrexia: All Will Be One. I pegged Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler as the multicolor card, and while Tyvar has seen play so far, it appears I missed the mark. Atraxa, Grand Unifier is the card proving to be relevant — not only …
