MTG Standard Draw Engine Approaches $30!

When March of the Machine was finally fully announced, Faerie Mastermind looked absolutely incredible. I was shocked that Yuuta Takahashi’s World Championship card wasn’t going for more. Offering a body at instant speed that draws cards, Faerie Mastermind seemed powerful in formats as old as even Legacy. Now, Faerie Mastermind is all over Standard and […]
