Friday, June 19th – The Atlanta StarCityGames.com $5000 Standard Open was a fairly disappointing tournament for me. I decided to battle with my trusty BW Tokens deck into a mediocre finish.

Thursday, June 18th – Wizards has announced some rule changes which will go into effect with M10 this summer. Things are changing. Change happens. Some of the changes will impact how the game is played. It’s not the end of the world. It isn’t the end of strategic play. Some cards will be better, some worse, but, overall, things will be fine.

It’s the obvious topic du jour for any self-respecting writer here on StarCityGames.com.
Wednesday, June 17th – Today, I want to do something very simple. I want to build decks! Yay! However, there is one little trick. There’s just one simple little thing to spin today’s article.
