Monday, October 11th – SCG provided you with tons of decklists last week for your States/Provincial Champsionships. Revisit them to prepare for the upcoming StarCityGames.com Open in Nashville! Leave feedback in the forums on the deck you ran!
Monday, October 11th – If you read last week’s article you might have noticed how much of a pain in the arse it was to trade on Magic Online. I knew that the smartest way do this was to get a bot going. The question was, “How do I do that?â€
Monday, October 11th – Jeff Cunningham loses a bet that he thought to be unlosable. Forced to write an article and attend a GP, the master craftsman pays off the bet. If you like Magic – hell, if you like words – you’ll love this article.
Monday, October 11th – Gavin Verhey begins his article with a deceptively simple question, “What do most of the best mechanics ever have in common?” Read about what cards you should be playing in your Scars of Mirrodin Limited decks!
Monday, October 11th – In Michael Flores’ article “Who’s the Beatdown?†he states that “Misassignment of Role = Game Loss.†While it’s certainly true when applied to Vintage, it’s often difficult to distinguish who is, in fact, the beatdown.
Friday, October 8th – Joey & Bigheadjoe discuss their experiences and ideas for post-Scars Standard!
Friday, October 8th – I’d been working on a variety of decks, but another day of much gaming convinces me that Jace, the Mind Sculptor is where I want to be at the moment. (I know! What are the odds?!)
Friday, October 8th – Playtesting. The part of Magic everyone loves to try and hates to see the results of. You have a Linchpin, and you’ve fleshed out a deck based on sound theory. Now to take it for a ride and see if you have an Aston Martin or an AMC Pacer.
Friday, October 8th – StarCityGames.com presents its first draft video!!! Matteo Orsini Jones is a high-profile Pro player whose skill in Limited formats has propelled him to high finishes, including Top 8 of PT Kyoto 2009. Watch as he drafts M11 on Magic Online!
Friday, October 8th – How does Brian Kibler manage to run so bad on his travels? It’s a mystery. But what’s a deeper puzzle is Scars of Mirrodin Draft. What does he find to be the best strategy when drafting Scars?
Friday, October 8th – Infect… poison… necrotic ooze… sometimes in the wee hours of the night, waking from a fevered slumber, I don’t know if a nurse battling the Super Flu during the first third of The Stand, or brewing something deadly for States.
Friday, October 8th – Innovation is a double-edged sword. The vast majority of all innovation is negative. But each time you fail and learn what doesn’t work, you get closer to what does work… Adam Prosak provides 6 Standard decklists for your pleasure!
Thursday, October 7th – Frost Titan is the man. He’s basically Angel of Despair, but you can pick a new target every turn if your opponent has a bigger threat. Combine with Ruinblaster and Leak on ramp spells to make sure that your ramp opponents never get to six mana…
Thursday, October 7th – Scars is a weak set. I like weak sets. I just wish they made more of them in a row. Power creep is a bad thing. The most powerful cards of old are crap compared to cards available in Standard? Really? That seems wrong.
Thursday, October 7th – Gerard Fabiano, who made Top 8 of US Nationals with U/W Control, brings us another unique take on the archetype, one that can crush the major green decks in Standard.
