Tuesday, September 1st – This week in the Academy, we get the rest of the Red cards out of the way. We discover the difference between two and three, the difference between Lightning and Lightning, we Shatter some illusions, and preach the virtues of patience. Let’s get started.
Monday, August 31st – With Zendikar just around the corner, Patrick Chapin examines some of the stronger cards from the rumor mills and spoiler sites. He brings us some interesting Extended decks with the new set in mind, plus a host of other interesting ideas and opinions…
Monday, August 31st – In today’s edition of So Many Insane Plays, Stephen Menendian’s takes his current deck of choice – Meandeck Beats – and throws it against Vintage Champion Hiromichi Itou’s tournament-winning deck. He notates the games as he goes, and tweaks his build each time…
Monday, August 31st – Hall of Famer Olivier Ruel takes us through an 8-4 draft queue on Magic Online. He shares some comprehensive thoughts about both the picks and the games, and talks us through each step of the way! If you’re looking to improve your Limited game, this is the article series for you!
Monday, August 31st – Before returning to Constructed with Zendikar, Todd Anderson has a handful of M10 drafts to play. Today, he takes us through another 8-4 draft from Magic Online, in which he leaves one of his most powerful bombs in the sideboard. Do you agree with his choices?
Monday, August 31st – This is a really exciting time to be playing Magic. M10 has been a huge success, the Standard format is relatively healthy (despite some degree of dominance by Vivid Land / Reflecting Pool decks), interest in Legacy and demand for Legacy events is higher than it has ever been, and the Vintage metagame is going through a state of flux.
Friday, August 28th – Last week, we left our French hero on a plane heading for Bangkok, with an expired passport and some crossed fingers. Happily, he made it through the first stage of his journey: making it into the country. Today, he talks about his journey, and shares some insights into M10 Sealed play…
Friday, August 28th – For the past two years, Paulo Vitor Damo da Rosa has played Faeries at every opportunity. With the major components finally rotating out of Standard with the approaching arrival of Zendikar, PV looks back and shares some of the lessons he’s learned while piloting the Blue/Black menace.
Friday, August 28th – As announced last week, this week’s article is to be the last in the Magical Hack series. Sean examines Faeries with a twist… Good luck with the book, Sean, and thanks for all the great articles!
Friday, August 28th – I just wanted to thank everyone for their great feedback in the forums the past week regarding Part 1 of my EDH primer – you all certainly provided some fantastic information for EDH fans new and old to further enrich the community that’s sprung up around this fun format!
Friday, August 28th – What are we going to be talking about today? New releases scheduled for this year, of course. We have a lot of good stuff coming down the pipe, as they say, and I’m going to give you an overview of it all, so you know how to budget your money.
Friday, August 28th – U.S. Nationals marked a year since my first attempt at Chicago to rise to Level 3 in the judge program. And in the last couple of months I’ve been asked by a lot of people whether I was going to try again anytime soon. To be honest I’m been seeking an all too elusive ‘quiet couple of months’ in which I could polish up on a few things before then setting my sights on a date.
Friday, August 28th – It’s time to see if all our hard work is starting to pay off, as we head to the Red zone in M10, seeing how many lessons we’ve already learned can be applied to the latest bunch of cards coming under the microscope. A Planeswalker with an Ultimate ability worth using, an old favorite that might be more old than favorite, and a beginner’s guide to Self Harm are among the entertaining highlights.
Friday, August 28th – Hello everybody, and welcome to another edition of the Magic Show. This week we’ve got a lot of Zendikar to talk about, whether it’s partial spoilers such as my Warren Instigator getting some abilities, a rarity, and a mana cost; our new Wrath of God a.k.a. Day of Judgment; Zendikar Planeswalkers on the loose; a Financial News Update and more. Let’s go!
