Join Sylvain for another week of high-stakes bankroll management on MTGO. He goes over the latest buys and sells and provides the reasoning behind them.
On the cusp of the Spring rotation Mike covers the cards you’ll want to stock up on. These cards are sure to make waves in Constructed moving forward.
The shadow of the Eldrazi is beginning to lift from Modern, thanks somewhat ironically to the incoming Shadows Over Innistrad. Previews have begun and while we only have about a third of the set to ogle that hasn’t stopped the speculation. I haven’t seen very much to really tickle my Modern senses yet, though I’m […]
Mike headed to GP Detroit last weekend to partake in the much-maligned Eldrazi Winter. Hear how his tournament went and his thoughts on the Modern format.
Mike returns to Expeditions to see where prices stand, how they have moved within the various price tiers, and which ones represent the best targets.
Eric took down a local tournament this weekend and nearly qualified for the Pro Tour as well. His secret? Perspective.
Grand Prix Detroit looms at the end of this week. I’m hopeful the tournament goes well and isn’t a colorless nightmare, but the opportunity for the community to grill Aaron Forsythe is worth it regardless. That being said, it is hard to imagine Eldrazi won’t be the driving force behind the Grand Prix metagame, though maybe not the […]
Welcome to no-Eldrazi Monday, where I scour the Modern environment for anything to discuss that isn’t colorless and didn’t skip leg day. Just kidding: even Legacy saw its reality smashed by Eldrazi taking the top Day 2 metagame slot at the StarCityGames Philadelphia Open. I’m having Treasure Cruise flashbacks and April can’t come soon enough. […]
This format has become as hostile as Zendikar. Testing Eldrazi online makes everyone ragequit, and testing anything else leaves me with bruises. Last week, I took a deck I’d already worked on profusely and tweaked it into a hate-machine for the format tyrant. The deck showed initial promise, but soon Eldrazi opponents adapted to my strategy, and […]
Eric got a deck tech in SCG Louisville, but that wasn’t the highlight he was looking for for his weekend. In today’s piece, he shares the lessons he learned from the event and provides the list that he would play in GP Detroit.
Eldrazi might be too powerful. We’ve known this since the Pro Tour, and it really has never been a serious question. Since Pro Tour Oath of the Gatewatch, a lot of drama has occurred, both in the Magic community and in the comments of our own site. Maybe a ban is necessary, maybe it’s not. […]
Mike considers how the latest news about Eternal Masters and Conspiracy might affect sales this summer, before checking in with the Standard metagame.
