An Aggressive Stance On Dominaria

One way to survive The Scarab God is to get underneath it! Dominaria houses a lot of aggro cards that could go all out and all-in! Donegan puts a few ideas together here!

Evaluating Sagas

The Sagas are completely warping how we think about cards. They’re a mix of suspend, of planeswalker, and of enchantment. Are these good? Are they too good? How can we know? Jadine takes the wheel!

Jousting With Dominaria

Though it has his beloved Elf, Merriam is taking things slow and steady with Dominaria! Some of this stuff is overrated, says he! Ross? Explain yourself at once!

What’s Possible With Dominaria

Gerry Thompson has some big words to say about Dominaria. There are new angles no one is seeing, and fortunately, Gerry is! He’s got plenty of decklists to start Standard off with once we go back to Magic’s future!

Retention Versus Acquisition: A Rising Tide Lifts All Ships

With lots of newness and change comes lots of criticism, but Jim Davis isn’t buying it! Even as a competitive player, he can’t wait to see this new era in motion! Here’s his reasoning!

Commit This To Memory

Owen Turtenwald may love The Scarab God, but he’s been undoing the competition with a different spell lately! With another Grand Prix in the bag for this archetype, can anything stop it at this point?

Video Daily Digest: Another Merfolk Branchwalker Deck. Shocking.
