Since the release of The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-Earth, Modern has received a few powerful, new options.

One of these notable The Lord of the Rings figures, and one who deserves this deck tech, is Shelob, Child of Ungoliant. At one point in the story, this massive spider manages …
It’s release week for The Lord of the Rings, and somehow we haven’t talked about The One Ring in the context of Modern since we first saw it previewed months ago. In some ways though, it’s like saving the best for last. While a card like stern scolding is more likely to see tons of play, I think The One …
