Unique Board Wipe and Mill Engine Dominates Major Standard Event
In the current Standard environment, it’s natural to expect the vast majority of top performing decks in a tournament to be either Izzet Cauldron or mono-red aggro. If you’re playing another strategy, you need a strong gameplan against these two decks in order to compete. Well, in a recent Standard Challenge, a brew not only […]
Exciting Donate Combo Makes Waves in Standard Out of Nowhere
One of the most amusing ways to win games of MTG is to have your opponent gain control of a permanent you own that comes with a major downside. Back in the day, using Donate to send Illusions of Grandeur your opponent’s way was a pretty sweet combo. More recently, we saw a combo play […]
Banned Sorcery and EDH Game Changer Could Provide Major MTG Arena Shakeup
Like many recent sets, MTG Spider Man comes equipped with a fully fleshed-out bonus sheet. These 40 reprints feature some major powerhouses from across Magic’s history. While players won’t be able to play with the Marvel versions of each reprint on MTG Arena, all 40 cards appear on the Through the Omenpaths bonus sheet. Many […]
Banned Powerhouse Revolutionizes Classic MTG Strategy
At this point, it’s well-known just how powerful Up the Beanstalk is. The card is now banned both in Standard and in Modern and consistently shows up in a couple Pioneer archetypes. It even has what it takes to make a splash in Legacy. While the enchantment most commonly shows up in value-oriented control decks […]
MTG Spider Man Uncommon Enables Multiple Infinite Combos
Prerelease events for Spider Man may be at our doorstep, but excitement for this set seems to be a lot lower than expected. Considering this is a Universes Beyond crossover with a massive franchise, there should be a lot of anticipation for this set. Instead, players seem to be rather indifferent to this set, compared […]
Broken Standard Combo Breaks Out in Older MTG Format
At this point, everyone knows how absurdly strong Izzet Cauldron is in Standard. The deck’s ability to apply pressure, generate value, and win the game out of nowhere thanks to the power of Agatha’s Soul Cauldron makes it difficult to gameplan against. As it turns out, the strategy is so powerful that it’s even making […]
Wizards Has Made Five-Color Commander MTG Cards Boring
As much as Standard has been growing in popularity recently, Commander is still Magic’s biggest format on paper. With unmatched creativity, freedom, and support on offer, it’s no surprise that Wizards prioritizes this format. Each modern MTG set is loaded with plenty of cool new Commanders and options for the 99. Out of all the […]
27-Year-Old Enchantment Makes Dragons a Competitive Commander Strategy
One of the most beloved creature types in Magic is undoubtedly Dragons. Since Shivan Dragon was printed all the way back in Alpha, Wizards of the Coast has made it a point to continue printing exciting Dragon haymakers. As fun as playing with a bunch of Dragons in EDH can be, though, it can be […]
Massive MTG Meme Turned Into Corporate Tool After 10 Days
It’s no secret that a lot of players have taken to Through the Omenpaths. Even without much in the way of additional flavor, the new characters and art have seriously impressed. In fact, many MTG players are already wishing for in-paper reprints of this entirely digital set. In particular, there’s one card that players want […]
MTG X Nickelodeon Panel to Reveal New Collaboration

Players have the opportunity to experience everything from Fortnite to SpongeBob reimagined with a Magic twist, whether they’ve wanted to or not. For better or worse, it seems that anything goes now, as we’ve even had […]
