You have to hand it to Wizards: they really nailed the whole “One Ring to rule them all” thing when they designed The One Ring MTG card. There hasn’t been a card so good in so many formats for a long, long time. In fact, at Pro Tour Modern Horizons 3 last weekend, The One […]

Even next to the radically modern trappings of Duskmourn, MTG Foundations was still the big surprise of MagicCon Amsterdam. Some players had suspected another Jumpstart product would be released this year, but none were expecting what is essentially a new core set. Especially not one that will be legal in Standard for five years. There’s […]

The MTG discourse machine is truly relentless. Nary a new card can escape being scrutinized within an inch of its life.

Following […]
