MTG The One Ring Replacement Spikes 560% in Price
Last week, many MTG players, including ourselves, cottoned on to the fact that Insight Engine is actually quite good. Far beyond just being useful in some niche Commander decks, this card feels like a retrain of an overpowered icon. Admittedly, while this card follows in The One Ring’s footsteps, it is missing a few key […]
Teased $60 Phyrexian Altar Reprint Is Concerningly Good
Recently, Wizards of the Coast has rather worryingly been taking away suitable sources for reprints. Masters Sets have gone the way of the dodo, and bonus sheets are getting rarer and rarer nowadays.

MTG Assassin’s Creed Legend Spikes 278% Thanks to God of War Synergies
Thanks to a series of recent reveals, a handful of underrated EDH tools have risen in price thanks to their synergies with new Universes Beyond cards.

Unique Boros Tokens Shell Successfully Mashes Two Archetypes Together
Prior to rotation, Mono-White Token Control was one of the stronger archetypes in Standard. The deck’s ability to generate tons of value helped it dominate the late game.

MTG Secret Lair Delay Ruins Limited-Run Printing’s One Upside
Despite the immense excitement that Secret Lair products create, they remain incredibly controversial.

$0.40 Enchantment Unlocks Hidden Commander Ramp Engine
Many of Commander’s best cards cost a pretty penny nowadays. Many common Commander cards, from generic staples like Roaming Throne to Game Changers like The One Ring, can easily cost $30 or more.
