I’m not generally one to write tournament reports that focus on the matches, but I haven’t actually gotten to enjoy the gut-wrenching pain of losing in the top 8 of a Grand Prix in quite some time. So I figured, “Why not live a little?”
They’re real, they’re confirmed as “double-face cards†(twenty of ‘em), and they’re complicated. Let’s ask some questions about double-face cards, and get into the flavor of ’em!
AJ discusses some intricacies of the Pod-less RUG Twin matchups, then suggests an Aggro-Loam deck for Modern!

So you say we should take the kid gloves off and game hard with Savra, Queen of the Golgari? You had me at €“hello.€

Commander has been getting all of the love from Wizards recently, and cubers like Justin Parnell are getting envious. What would the ideal FTV: Cube look like? Make sure to join the discussion in the comments!
Jonathan Medina gives you an introduction to pricing your cards if you plan on selling them as an individual trader. He shows you all the resources available and gives you the power to make sure the price is right!
Gavin finishes off his epic series on Modern with a guide to sideboarding against all the major beatdown, combo, and control decks in the format. Looking for sideboard cards/ideas? Here’s the first place to look.
