MTG Ancestral Recall Lookalike Sees 522.5% Price Spike After Selling Over 5000 Copies
It’s rare that a new meta deck explodes as violently onto the scene as Izzet Lessons has in the MTG World Championships this year. Despite two bannings of Izzet strategies in recent Standard, yet another deck utilizing the color combination has risen to the top again. Interestingly, this time, it’s due to a bunch of […]
Golgari Dragons Showcases Metabreaking Potential at World Championship
Day one of the Magic World Championship 31 has now concluded, and it’s safe to say that MTG Avatar has had a major impact on the Standard metagame.

MTG Bloomburrow Card Hits $30 Following 414% Price Spike
Throughout 2025, the MTG Standard format has been really going through it. We’ve had ban-worthy menaces cropping up one after the other, effectively ruining the format.

MTG Avatar Uncommon Spikes 1938% in Price After Attaining Staple Status
For better or worse, it seems MTG Avatar has no shortage of expensive cards. Some of the set’s best cards are selling for around $70 a copy right now, which is obscene.

Exciting Tempo Shell With 20 Lessons Dominates Entire Format
Of all the design choices featured in MTG Avatar, the one that received the most controversy was undoubtedly the return of Lessons. Despite this spell subtype making a triumphant return, the Learn mechanic that players expected to see alongside it wasn’t featured in the set at all. With this in mind, some players, including me, […]
New MTG Reprint is a Hyper Efficient Double-Edged Sword
Since its printing in MTG Avatar, Badgermole Cub has emerged as a multi-format all-star. Cub has such incredible upside potential despite only being a two-drop, especially in decks with mana dorks or other support elements. In fact, players have already started clamoring for the two-drop to be banned less than two weeks after its release! […]
MTG World Championships Reveals Multiple Busted $0.75 Uncommons
The MTG 2025 World Championship breakdown is out, and it contains a lot of surprises. Thankfully, no deck looks potentially banworthy or overly dominant at the moment, which is certainly refreshing.

Players Frustrated with Popularity of Instant Win MTG Designs
Over the years, many MTG cards have been printed that are capable of running away with games almost singlehandedly. As power creep has been on the rise, these cards that feel like “I win” buttons have only become more popular and more efficient. Unsurprisingly, these designs don’t always lend themselves to the most fun of […]
Underrated MTG Card Stops Broken Infinite Combo
Avatar: The Last Airbender released some incredibly powerful MTG cards into the ecosystem. It’s great to see new cards causing change in formats as old as Legacy, but this is also a clear sign that some aspects of a new set are clear power outliers. Badgermole Cub is certainly the talk of the town, but […]
