The peasant Magic idea works well in cases where local participation is low. Let’s take my store’s attendance as an example: Prior to the opening, it was zero – the big goose egg. In following weeks, the store had six players in playing Magic on our Saturday league opening, then twelve the following one, then twenty by the third week!
Miraclo Gro rips up Extended… But why does it fail in Type 2 and Extended? Peter builds some Gro variants for all environments and shows you how environment affects deckbuilding.
Don’t believe the hype! Everyone and his mom are telling you how Judgment’s Wishes will break Type One in – but if you look closely, you’ll see that what you have to give up might not be worth the wish…
Well, maybe Geordie can’t play Type One… But he can discuss his extensive playtesting for Regionals and show you what sorts of mutations a deck goes through before the Big Push.

“For a long time, testing seems to have shown me that four cantrips seems to be like playing an extra two lands – but am I really right?” Jim goes stat-crazy in an attempt to figure out how Opts, Peeks, and Sleight of Hands affect your draws!
Now on a slower pace, Anthony has time to think about life’s great questions: What is the best way to play Emperor with eight people? And what is the Secretly Forbidden Topic of StarCity?
And so I ask you, the Magic community, a critical question that has never been answered in Magic before or since: What makes a team win? Help me find one of the core fundamentals of Magic that the Lucky Seven never answered.
With the influx of powerful new white and green cards in Judgment, the question of the day becomes: Will W/G be any good in Standard?
Bennie attended the Central Championships – the ccgprime.com-sponsored Midwest tournament where Type 2 and OBC met head-to-head. So how did Bennie do?
