Mike Lanigan discusses the impact of the cards of New Phyrexia on Standard’s Vampire archetype.

Neale brings you one vision, one goal, one overriding, dominating objective: blue mages must die.

Seeing the results from the National Qualifiers and thinking back on the article I wrote on Vampires, I was led back to that deck. I really love this Vampire deck and what it is capable of, I play it well, and I have had more success with it than any other deck this season. With all those things being true, how could I not play it again?

PPL is back! Gregory brings you a brand new Black / Red deck you can use to teach those Caw Blade players a lesson.

The next few short weeks, this CawBlade deck continued to dominate tournaments from local FNM’s to large Star City Games hosted events everywhere. The young mage, Mike Lanigan, read articles, built decks, and tried his best to build a comparable strategy that could take down this “Jund-like” beast (or “Faerie-like” if you prefer).

Again this week Kellen Huber goes into the extended format with a darker side to the format with a new BR deck.
