MTG Enchantment Sees 302% Price Increase Thanks to Competitive Soft Lock

Ever since Vivi Ornitier left Standard, the format has completely turned around. For the first time in a long time, Standard offers dozens of competitive archetypes in a format that balances itself. Thanks to this, there’s been a steep increase in demand for specific protection pieces that combat the ever-evolving metagame. In particular, High Noon […]

MTG Cheating Scandal Shows Need for Fundamental Change

Sadly, MTG has had a cheating problem for a long time. Some of the game’s mechanics, like the constant shuffling caused by Fetch Lands, give bad actors many opportunities to stack the game unfairly in their favor. Combine this with the surprisingly light punishments that cheaters receive, and there’s little incentive for bad actors not […]

MTG TMNT Card Spikes to $22 Thanks to Newly Discovered Combo

MTG Cool but Rude

In the lead-up to the TMNT set, the MTG financial markets were surprisingly stagnant. Outside of a few Mutants spiking in price thanks to new synergies, we didn’t see the usual reaction. Instead of the latest precon moving mountains, it seems Lorywn Eclipsed remained relevant for far longer than expected. Now, however, it appears that […]

The Most Expensive MTG TMNT Bonus Sheet Cards

As is now the norm for Standard-legal Universes Beyond sets, TMNT features a bonus sheet of Source Material cards. This time around, the sheet features a total of 20 different reprints from across Magic’s history. Many of them are valuable staples, too, further enhancing the pack-cracking experience.  Now that Prerelease is over and the set […]

Shocking MTG X TMNT Uncommon is One of the Best Cards in the Set

Following all of the rares and mythics being spoiled early, we didn’t expect many surprises from the TMNT spoilers season. With only one precon and lower-rarity cards to be revealed, it really seemed like we were in for a whole lot of nothing. In reality, however, it turns out that Wizards had tons of neat […]

Wizards Announces Controversial Decklist Changes To Increase Complexity

UPDATE: Following the massive backlash to the proposed MTGO decklist changes, Wizards of the Coast has announced they’re reversing their decision. In a new blog post, it was confirmed that decklists will continue to be published as they are now, which is a great win for MTG players. The original copy for the article continues […]

Upcoming MTG Ban Announcement Could Bring Major Commander Changes

On Monday, February 9th, Wizards of the Coast will announce the latest MTG ban list update. Usually, we’d say this ban list update has been a long time coming, but Wizards is trying something different in 2026. Last year, Wizards announced there would be seven ban windows throughout 2026 to prevent any deck running amok […]

New $2 MTG Promos Causes Massive Player Excitement

Magic’s recent punts at competitive promos have not ended well. The previous season’s Laughing Jasper Flint Promo, for example, was a complete flop. Not only was the reprint value of this card abysmal, but the Lizard Outlaw doesn’t see play in any competitive MTG format. Being awarded exclusively to Regional Championship Qualifier top finishers only […]
