LaRue’s back with another art attack – and this time, he’s asking what the two best pieces in Judgment are! One may be Constructed-worthy… The other probably isn’t. Read on!
Wishes: They Aren’t Just for Sideboard Cards
Kibler got it right when he mentioned that there are only three”playable” Wishes – Living, Cunning, and Burning. What are the approaches to using them in OBC?
From Shoddy To Janky: A Tale, Constructed
“I’ve played a similar number of matches in each format. I’m showing improvement in one, but not in the other. Why?”

In OBC alone, there are at least four solid U/G decks I can count:”Mongrel Madness,” U/G Upheaval, Quiet Roar, and lately I’ve seen a bounce-heavy variant running Wonder, Elephant Guide, and Cephalid Constable. All share similarities, but have enough differences to be considered unique.
