How I Saved The Okk

Let me say that there is absolutely zero relevant IBC or Type 2 or Draft knowledge that can be gleaned from the story of . It is written merely because, well — someone has to know. I won’t let ’s death go unsung, and the only other way to ensure this (except by writing this…

Do You Love Magic?

No, Do you really love Magic? Actually, you probably don’t right now. You’ll be getting sick of testing and playing Invasion Block Constructed, or maybe you’ll be sick of reading about it, no matter how much strange, infertile, bald old men make it look like fun. (How often can one man play out an inside-out…

You CAN Play Type 1 #10: Why Do They Say Fact Or Fiction Isn’t Broken?

It sure is in Type 1, but why doesn’t it work in Extended or IBC? A comprehensive analysis of mana and tempo.

CASUAL FRIDAYS #102: Not At All About Magic

Not much humor or game strategy to offer this week.

Intentional Draws And Unintentionally Silly Drafts

Invasion block draft has really been getting on my nerves lately. It seems as if in every draft I’m in I end up playing, at the very least, three colours. More often than not, it’s four or five. It’s not that the decks aren’t good or that I keep getting manascrewed, because they’re usually okay…

Wise Words – September 11th, 2001

When I got home from PT: New York, I started packing. Awaking after getting in late on Sunday night, I could only think with wonderment about and the amazing things he’d done over the last year. A win in each of the three rated formats in Magic over one season went beyond anyone’s dreams a…

I hoped to carry my hot playing streak forward and to break into the coveted top eight for the first time ever in my playing career. Momentum was my friend.

The Chicken Deck Contest Winner: Some Guys Have All The Cluck

I have submitted what I now call,”Chicken deck of the People.” I have no doubt that Rosewater will pluck this deck from the many selected: “Chicken deck of the People” (“Choking the Chicken” was so much better, but I bowed to commercialism) Creatures 4x Chicken a-la-King 4x 4x 4x 3x 1x 1x Shu Soldier-Farmer 1x…
