Monday, May 12th – The Star City Games $5000 Open Day 1 Top 8 was filled with Green cards, which would be a good sign if they didn’t miserably fail in the face of even more Faeries. Still, it can give one hope that the metagame won’t completely debase into Faeries versus non-Faeries, although I fear we may already have reached that point.
Monday, May 12th – Unlocking Legacy spends a lot of time talking about how good Threshold is. By popular demand, Kevin Binswanger is back this week talking about a deck set to take down this monster.
Friday, May 9th – Today’s Flores Friday sees Mike hop into his Wayback Machine to revisit some of the classic strategic modeling from some of the top players and thinkers in the game. He casts his modernist eye over the various Schools of Magic, and updates them with a nod toward their importance in the current metagames. What can the strategies of the past teach us about the formats of the future?
Friday, May 9th – Block Constructed is coming, and now Shadowmoor is in the mix all bets are currently off. Yeah, we know that U/B Faeries is probably the deck to beat… but what other sweetmeats are on offer at the Lorwyn Block Constructed table? Adrian brings us three different takes on the Elemental tribe, including a funky deck that abuses the five-color Horde of Notions…
Friday, May 9th – I have spent the past few weeks rambling around the new possibilities with Shadowmoor in Standard, poking around from good idea (Merfolk love Cursecatcher!) to bad idea (Mono-Green 36 creature deck!) as we wandered around the format.
Friday, May 9th – Hello everybody, and welcome to another edition of the Magic Show. This week we’re going to be delving into the wide-open world of Standard. What archetypes are expected to take the cash this weekend? What tech is the hottest, what creatures are making the most impact, and how will this all affect Hollywood?
Live from Richmond, it’s the latest tech shown in video form!
Owen Turtenwald’s GB Elves are laid bare thanks to the magic of Evan Erwin!
