It’s another edition of Buy, Hold or Sell! What should you be doing with your money this week?

Summer 2016 has been a hostile season for the Urzatron. I’d been rolling over online opponents with RG Tron for months, but starting in late May, I detected a shift. More Infect and Death’s Shadow Zoo. More Through the Breach and Valakut. More crazy optimists thinking their new Shadows Over Innistrad tech would make Dredge […]

In his first article for Quiet Speculation, Nicolas Cancellara outlines his plans for finance writing and suggests several cards of note on MTGO to buy, sell or hold.

This week we’re focusing on one thing: decklists. Shadows Over Innistrad is legal on MTGO, so that means Jace, Unraveler of Secrets everywhere! No? Well, we still have the one-two punch of Eldrazi bannings and Ancestral Vision/Sword of the Meek’s unbanning to shake things up. What does this new Modern look like? How can we […]

I’m out on vacation this week, so with the exception of my banlist article yesterday (I couldn’t even have left the house without writing that!), I’ll be doing some shorter tech-oriented articles for this week. You can expect more discussion and processing of the banlist next week, as well as some metagame discussion as we […]

In last week’s article, we took a deep dive into the world of unpublished MTGO dailies, capturing performance by both the 4-0/3-1 decks and the 2-2 or worse finishers. This dataset gives us a chance to look at a deck’s performance throughout an event, not just in the winner’s bracket. MTGO statistics in action! We […]

I’m a big fan of using MTGO data to analyze deck performance. But one of the biggest issues with data available on the Wizards website is it’s incomplete. We only see 4-0/3-1 decks, we only see one event per day, and we have no idea what matchups happened on the way to those finishes. Although […]

MTGO daily data is awesome. If you like Magic and like numbers/statistics/math in any way, it’s hard to look at the mothership’s dataset and not nerd out. It’s updated daily! It has full decklists! It’s presented in a consistent format! It has average game win percentage for decks! Although there are certainly ways Wizards coould […]

Last week Chad mentioned an awesome resource for analyzing price changes in MTGO singles. In addition to reviewing the Banned and Restricted announcement, he spent some time looking over data and doing some research and something has become readily apparent.

Matthew Lewis takes a look at his recent MTGO pickups, analyzing motivation, what went right, what went wrong, and a followup for each one. A real glimpse into the diverse portfolio of an MTGO speculator!
