Monday, December 14th – Zendikar Block Constructed is pretty much a Magic Online-only format, but I’ve been getting a lot of requests to write about it over the last two weeks.

Friday, December 11th – This past weekend was the “2009s,” or State Championships as we stubborn old farts of the game will insist on calling it no matter what. I had been very bad at attending States for the past few years… But this year was to be different.
Friday, December 11th – Man, it feels fantastic to type that title! While I’ve gotten more than a few condolences on my finish (since 2nd place also means you were this close to 1st place), personally I’m just thrilled to have returned to the Top 8 tables of States after way too long…
