Josh Rayden brings us a slew of videos and a Twelvepost brew for this weekend’s Modern Pro Tour in Philadelphia. Convinced of the deck’s nimble brute strength, Josh presents why he believes it’s the deck to beat.

Jason Schousboe reacquaints himself with an old friend by taking Lands for a spin around the block, with the value-added Scapeshift and Valakut. See how he fared in this quixotic quest below.
Champions of Kamigawa drew upon Japanese mythology, with its shrines, kami and crazy dragon spirits. Though it doesn’t pack in the ridiculous combo cards like Mirrodin did, it is full of legends, which means that there are a bunch of cards that get their value from Commander. This week, we will look at the first half of the set and how you can get the most money from Champs. Let’s look!
Fifth Dawn was the third set in Mirrodin and was inexplicably focused on getting people to play all five colors. In the abstract, this is fine, but this was in a set full of artifacts that gave you advantages for running them. It would be like if Onslaught Block culminated in a set focused on super-powered spells instead of really good Tribal creatures…
Oh, wait.
Dana Kinsella brings us a hyper-aggressive U/W Legacy Infect deck that proves itself as a quick win covered in fun.
Mike Hawthorne begins his upcoming weekly Legacy-focused Insider series by introducing himself and responding to the most recent tournament results, noting which cards deserve speculative attention.
Magic 2012 is almost here! Anthony’s back with his acerbic wit for a spin down the lanes of the latest Core Set, dishing up a Cube review worth reading.
Old-fashioned, creature-based card advantage. Let Robert take you through a Mayael deck that’s packed to the brim with it!
A Birthing Pod deck? Can it be so? Yes my friends, and it is as glorious and utility-filled as all of your little dreams had hoped! Twice now my Houston playgroup has had somebody run this list in a PTQ to Top 8 contention, to lose in the last round of Swiss. Here’s the list, with every card explained, that was used!
In the world of Dragons, everyone can hear you scream but it doesn’t matter one bit. Robert shares some Dragon chemistry around Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund, taking us from small-time ideas to a big-time deck list!
