Wednesday, March 3rd – Back in 2007, I wrote an article that changed the way some people played Magic. During 2008, I twice revisited the series with errata and optional changes. However, since then? There have been numerous sets released, and now there are questions…
Wednesday, March 3rd – Extended is probably my favorite format. Enough cards to support a diversity of strategies, and yet a ruthless ecosystem in which only the strongest will thrive. A nice feature is that the consistency in the card base means that the format has a strong continuity from year to year, such that if you knew what was going on the year before, you probably have a good handle on what is going on this season…
Wednesday, March 3rd – Magic is a complicated game, and becoming good at it is exceptionally difficult to the unprepared mind. It requires a drive – a desire – and a whole lot of patience. Still, you’ve heard all that before. And, incidentally, you’ve probably heard everything I’m about to tell you in this article before, too. Regardless, though, I feel like there is still much to be said.
Wednesday, March 3rd – In this week’s edition of MTGCast, the talk centers on the recently-spoiled Kozilek, Butcher of Truth! There’s also talk on Worldwake Gateway promos, the side events at Pro Tour: San Diego, and more!
Tuesday, March 2nd – In his first article for StarCityGames.com, AJ Sacher makes his introductions before turning his eye to some of the more underappreciated cards in Zendikar Limited. Are simple-sounding cards such as Bog Tatters multi-layered after all? Read on to find out!
Tuesday, March 2nd – Hi, my name is Matt, and I play Dredge. Last Saturday, 82 players competed in the Vintage portion of the Philly Open V at the Philadelphia Convention Center, making for one of the larger American Vintage tournaments of the past year…
Tuesday, March 2nd – After a week off EDH League to attend Pro Tour: San Diego, I was back at the Armada Games Thursday EDH League. I was hoping to devour quite a few brains, but as you’ll see, things didn’t quite work out the way I had hoped.
Monday, March 1st – I had just picked up my second loss in round five of the San Diego LCQ, and it was bordering on midnight. I hadn’t had time to revise my Dark Depths deck from the week prior. And that’s when, like a gigantic cheeseburger to a man stuck in the sand dunes of the Sahara, Alex West swooped in with his Zoo deck.
Monday, March 1st – With four formats in just three weekends, the 2010 season got underway with a bang. Rich takes you through event number one, the Grand Prix in Oakland that saw Extended take center stage. Featuring the best decklists from the event, including the Petr Brozek tech that took the tournament by storm.
Monday, March 1st – After Day 1 of the Pro Tour in San Diego, murmurs could be heard that Jund was dead, and everyone heralded a new era full of Wild Nacatls and Jace, the Mind Sculptor. However, when the dust cleared and the last few rounds of Standard commenced, Jund was scattered across many top tables, and eventually put multiple copies into the Top 8.
Friday, February 26th – I figured by the time this goes up, you will have been inundated with Standard strategy in the wake of Pro Tour: San Diego and leading up to the next big StarCityGames.com Open this weekend, right here in my hometown of Richmond Virginia! Instead of adding my boots to ground well-trodden by guys far more knowledgeable and accomplished than myself, I figured I’d write about EDH again.
Friday, February 26th – One day removed from the first of his Extended PTQ run, Dave is ready to roll with a combo deck deemed “too slow” by one of today’s hottest pros. Dave provides the history and the thoughts behind this year’s build of Dragonstorm, and then gets ready to ride the lightning in Extended!
Friday, February 26th – Hello everybody, and welcome to another edition of the Magic Show. This week is one of the hallmarks of the year, the Pro Tour Show! These are my pride n’ joy and I try my best to convey the awesomeness that is a PT. In this one we speak of Jace, Tectonic Edge, manlands and more, hearing from PT superstars and WotC personnel. Let’s go!
Friday, February 26th – Readers of my previous article on Pro Tour: Austin are familiar with how important socialization is to the Pro Tour experience – as much so for judges as it is for players. San Diego was exceptionally good, in that many of my favorite judges were on staff. However, this Pro Tour would be slightly different in content and context, as this was the Pro Tour at which I would test for Level Three.
