Rather, it was the introduction of cheap planeswalkers on a massive scale. Beginning with War of the Spark, Wizards unleashed on the format gameplay the likes […]
Last week, we kicked off the September Brew Report, covering some of the juiciest decks to emerge from recent 5-0 dumps.

Monday’s Banned and Restricted Announcement has turned the Modern metagame on its head, and Adam is here to explain what it means for the future of the market.
