New MTG 70-Card Cascading Beans Deck Dominates the Modern Format!
Up the Beanstalk immediately started garnering attention from the MTG community. As soon as the card was spoiled, MTG players immediately started speculating if and where the card would see play. It seemed pretty obvious that a ramp-based Commander deck would enjoy a card like Up the Beanstalk, but with all the free five mana […]
MTG Masters of Evil Review, Upgrade Guide
While I am not a Doctor Who fan I can tell you that I am a fan of villains. I never root for the underdog, I want the evil empire to be victorious and bring order to the land. So, while I am more interested in how the Doctor Who decks play, how they function, […]
MTG Ban Announcement Leaves Much to be Desired
Recently, we discussed the potential for change during the October 16 MTG ban announcement. Back when the last ban announcement occurred on August 7, or should I say “unban” announcement, Wizards of the Coast made it clear that the plan was to leave a window for potentially problematic cards in various non-rotating formats to be […]
MTG The List Is Losing 260 Cards and Appearing in Drafts!
It came seemingly out of nowhere, hitting the MTG community fast and hard. Draft and Set Boosters are a thing of the past. The new Play Booster will be replacing them, attempting to fuse the gameplay provided by Draft Boosters with the collectibility and excitement of opening Set Boosters. These products created an awkward interaction […]
Wizards Announces Brand New MTG Play Boosters for 2024
Before 2019, buying Magic: The Gathering Boosters was blissfully easy. All you had to do was walk into your local game store, ask for a Booster, pay, and the deal is done. That’s all it took, no confusion, no faff, but ask, pay, get, and play. For better or worse, however, once Throne of Eldraine […]
Missing Secret Lair Leaves MTG Community Baffled
The MTG Secret Lair line has grown a lot in the past few years. Once considered rather controversial, especially when the mechanically unique Walking Dead cards were released, the line originally got a lot of criticism for taking away business from local game stores. Fast forward a few years later, and the Secret Lair line […]
MTG Lead Reveals Another Aftermath Set Is “Pretty Unlikely”
Each year, Wizards of the Coast releases an awful lot of MTG sets and products. Between major releases and Secret Lair Drops, MTG players are inundated with cards, both new and old. As if that wasn’t enough, in 2023, Wizards premiered a brand new type of MTG set with March of the Machine: The Aftermath. […]
New MTG Bundle Provides Excellent Commander Value
Unfortunately, as much as we love it, Magic: the Gathering is not a cheap game to play. No matter what format you’re playing, it’s worryingly easy to get carried away, spending hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Thanks to this, it’s no wonder that MTG players are often on the lookout for a good deal […]
MTG Ixalan Vampire Demon Commander Just Got Leaked!?
Even though Doctor Who hasn’t even released yet, it appears as though players are already starting to see more cards from the next set. Alongside a full draftable Standard-legal set, The Lost Caverns of Ixalan has four new Commander decks releasing alongside it. We covered the revealed themes of those decks in a separate article. […]
MTG Players Demand Compensation After Format Warping Changes
Unsurprisingly for a digital game, when first launching in 2018, MTG Arena was hardly in the state it’s in today. The economy was troubled, sets were lacking, and there were even fewer formats for MTG players to enjoy. Thankfully, over recent years, 2023 especially, many of these issues have been rectified thanks to oodles of […]
