It seems that the world has gone Extended crazy, and Kyle Sanchez is no exception. Today’s Down And Dirty brings Kyle’s take on the metagame after three weeks of intensive testing with a variety of partners. For aggro fans there’s a fresh look at Gruul, and for more long-term strategists there’s a Tooth, Nail, and Mindslaver deck. Wrapping up, we have Kyle’s latest version of King in the Castle. Fun for everyone!

The results from the Kentucky Blue Grass Open are in and you can see all the lists here. So what does all this mean for you and the Extended metagame? We now have some idea of what decks have and haven’t replicated results in some fashion. In addition, we can also take note of alterations from previous iterations (if there are any) and get an idea of what Lorwyn has brought to the table.
Trying to avoid to make a resolution to lose weight Yet Again, Dave examines possible changes a budget player might make in order to keep their game moving forward.
Welcome back to the series dedicated to the realm of the casual. I’m the DJ of the only radio station to spin your tunes on a weekly basis, so let’s get started. Today, I want to peer more closely at an old premise of mine: the Silklash Spider.
Extended is coming, and we all must be prepared. I for one have settled on my deck of choice… have you? If you’re still floundering in the mire of powerful options, today’s Peebles Primers may help. BPM is also PTQing this season, and he’s sharing his processes at every step. In this article he sets out the truths he knows about the exciting format as the season begins…
Sam Black rocked up to Worlds with the side events set firmly in his sights… and he never wavered from his task all weekend. When the dust settled, he walked out with a PTQ win, an iPhone, and a $20,000 car… a nice day at the office by anyone’s standards. Today he takes us through the ups and, well, more ups of his tournament experience. Enjoy!

Sort of an end of the year mishmash today. I played in Lorwyn PTQ. I can do a mini tournament report. The leagues I was monitoring ended. I have stats. The two topics fit together like toothpaste and differential equations, so it’s all good.
BDM and Flores covered “Twelve Decks,†or whatever, and y’all have I am sure recapped 2007-in-Magic more than you care to acknowledge. While Remi Fortier’s hair is certainly reminiscence-worthy, and Billy did probably design the best deck in Magic history, I’ll save you the trip through memory lane.
Instead, I’ll just talk about me.
I’m in awe of people who do “The Year in Review” columns. It takes skill… I don’t even dare contemplate doing a review of what happened in 2007. Instead, I decided to review – preview – what I’m looking forward to in the coming year. Most of this will be Magic-related, but I might sprinkle in some other stuff too. What are you looking forward to in 2008
It’s Christmas, and the Weatherlight has turned a little chilly. (At least everyone I saw at the Release Events was going BR, BR, BR.) So what do you do with this older set, and what’s the rule? Tune in and find out!
Fresh from his sterling performance at Worlds 2007, Patrick “The Innovator†Chapin has decided to give us our Christmas gift a little early this year! Today’s Innovations sees the Constructed master turn his eye towards Extended, bringing us the “Next Level in Blue Deck Technology.†Intrigued? Then read on!
For Worlds 2007, Steve Sadin got to work closely with the one and only Zvi Mowshowitz. I’m sure every single one of us would give our right arms for such an opportunity, and Steve was determined to make the most of it. Today, in the first part of his report, he looks at both Standard and Draft. Enjoy!
