Friday, October 3rd – Hello everybody, and welcome to another edition of the Magic Show. After suffering through this past weekend’s prerelease festivities, something must be said. And if I’m the guy who has to say it, so be it. I’ll also cover the leak of the complete Conflux card list, and feature a special visit from Patrick Chapin and Friends. Let’s go!
Friday, October 3rd – Taking an early look at Shards of Alara for Constructed play, it’s not hard to see why the Bant shard is getting the attention for Standard. While it is Naya that claims the most efficient monster, with a Thoctar so big you can see Russia from atop it and the low price of just three mana, it is Bant who claims the miniature Exalted Angel at that same price.

Thursday, October 2nd – The five distinct tri-color pairings in Shards of Alara promise great things for the Standard metagame. Creative deckbuilders across the globe are looking for the perfect way to harness the power and synergy of Jund, Bant, and the rest. Today’s Deep Analysis sees Richard Feldman bring us a pair of interesting Standard decks using the Red, Green, and Black cards of Jund…

Thursday, October 2nd – Good Thursday to you kind folks, and welcome to the column that is dedicated to bringing you weekly information on the world of the casual. Today I am going to focus on writing my normal set review article with an eye to Five Color.
Thursday, October 2nd – Sealed Deck is the format I least enjoy of all Magic formats, you have so little control over what you get to play with, you’re really at the mercy of luck with what card pool you get. However, this was a prerelease, and this would let me play with these new cards before I could buy them… sure, why not?
Wednesday, October 1st – Magic is truly a global game! Cards are printed in multiple languages each set release, from English to Russian to Japanese. Ever wondered what your non-English card are worth? Do non-Americans value certain language cards over others? In today’s edition of Insider Trading, Ben takes a look at the history of the foreign card, and gives some advice about their values!
Wednesday, October 1st – With Shards of Alara set to shatter the Standard metagame, and Magic Online not set to bring us the electronic cards for a fair few weeks, Kyle Sanchez turns to alternate online Magical offerings in order to test his confusingly-named White-Red Kithkin deck.

Wednesday, October 1st – This article would not help you win a single game of Magic if everyone played games exclusively via MTGO. Fortunately, those of us who don’t play World of Warcraft are still relatively familiar with the phenomenon known as “real life,†and thus we sometimes occasionally every once in a while maybe just maybe interface with living, breathing human beings. If this happens in a Magical context, we might even shuffle up a physical deck of brown-backed insignia-inscribed trading cards.
Wednesday, October 1st – He’s done it! Rich Hagon mops his fevered brow and promises himself faithfully never to get into such a mighty undertaking as this five-part behemoth unawares ever again. But not before he completes the last lap of the farewell tour, with a ton of expensive goodies from Future Sight. Sanity will return next week.
