One interesting thing about competitive Magic compared to seasonal sports competition is that not all event weeks are created equal. There are peaks and troughs to the schedule – and this last fortnight has been quite an intense peak! The release of Secrets of Strixhaven has added a ton of significant cards to the Constructed card pool, opening up new …
I don’t tend to update my decks more than twice a year, so Secrets of Strixhaven also proved to be a good time to look at the past few sets for interesting pickups, too.

Secrets of Strixhaven is a uniquely challenging Draft set to wrap your head around. Unique, that is… unless you played the original Strixhaven! Much like its predecessor this new set has a heavy emphasis on instants and sorceries, and their interplay with the students and professors of Strixhaven’s five colleges. As a Draft format this provides some really memorable archetypes …
If I was to compare the Commander games I’ve had in recent years that are over before they even get going, it would dwarf the amount like it in previous years.

Cultured enjoyers of Path to Exile and Settle the Wreckage have long leveraged them as ramp spells.

ERODE IS A POWERFUL NEW REMOVAL SPELL At just one …
Secrets of Strixhaven releases April 24. It’s a lot of fun to revisit Strixhaven, as we get to check out some interesting takes on how enemy color pairs interact to produce unconventional tactics. You can find other recent set reviews here: Card Kingdom’s Set Reviews only really care about broadly powerful and relevant cards, so if you notice something missing? …
Secrets of Strixhaven is an intriguing prospect for Commander players, especially the preconstructed decks. Secrets of Strixhaven is our second visit to the academic plane of Arcavios, which trains young spellcasters from across the multiverse. It’s the fastest Magic has ever returned to a new plane, with the original Strixhaven: School of Mages debuting just five years ago. Like Secrets, …
Secrets of Strixhaven releases on April 24th. In addition to the main set, there are also five precons – one for each of Strixhaven’s colleges. This article is going to take a look at the Quandrix Unlimited precon and discuss the best ways to upgrade it. Quandrix College is all about numeromancy. It’s basically a super magical hybrid of mathematics …
