There were some things that I meant to talk about in my last article, which explored black as a possible metagame call in the current standard environment that I didn’t get to. Basically it is this… THERE IS NO DARK RITUAL IN INVASION! This probably means that there will not be any more of this…
Black is down. So sayeth Chavez Domingo. I don’t disagree and have said so before, but for the most part, black looked down last season as well. Aside from the odd deck there wasn’t much going in black. was mostly black based but it got some real power from white, especially . It was a…
I tell myself I will not go even as I drive there." Big Black ‘Bad Houses’. After States, I was looking at the great Star City site here when I noticed that they had some of the decklistings for the top decks from those tournaments. If you haven’t noticed this yet, it’s under a black…
Sometime, about six years ago or so when I was in my late twenties, I went date with a girl I had known for a short time, and we talked about what we were doing and where we were going in life. I think we both pretty much came to the conclusion that our friendship…
