Unique MTG Cat Typal Deck Crushes Competition in High-Powered Format
The release of MH3 had an absolutely massive impact on Legacy. Various Eldrazi builds featuring cards like Sowing Mycospawn have been consistently putting up results.

MTG Eldrazi Winter Menace Begins to Take over for a Second Time

Rakdos Zombie Combo Dominates Major Modern Event by Surprise

MTG Common Fixes Failing Breakout Combo Deck
Two combo decks were at the forefront of Pro Tour Modern Horizons 3. One of the two decks, Nadu, Winged Wisdom combo, went on to dominate the entire event. The deck performed so well, that Nadu actually became cheaper after the Pro Tour. This is due to players expecting it to be banned at the […]
