MTG Designer Reveals Wizards ‘Throttles’ Controversial Mechanic

Dishing the dirt on discard.
Poor Gameplay Makes Flagship MTG Format a Bad Experience

Since the release of MTG Foundations, we’ve seen a lot of different decks pop up in Standard. A decent mix of red aggro decks, black midrange strategies, and multi-color ramp shells gave players the opportunity to pick their weapon of choice in a diverse environment. We’ve even seen Esper Pixie and Azorius Omniscience combo emerge […]
MTG Aetherdrift Buy-a-Box Promo is a Neat Typal Payoff Vehicle

Now that Innistrad Remastered spoiler season has finally concluded, it’s time to look ahead towards Aetherdrift. Aetherdrift is the first premier set in 2025, scheduled to release on February 14.

Bloomburrow Rabbit Spikes 549% After Escaping the Sideboard

We’re still weeks away from the first MTG release of 2025, but the game’s financial markets are already moving. Following parallel high-profile tournaments last weekend, the Standard MTG format is very much in vogue. Thanks to this, we’ve already seen some majorly impressive price spikes to kickstart this year. Unsurprisingly, the best Standard decks are […]
Unloved The Big Score Card Spikes 250% After Tournament Win

The Big Score is a strange MTG ‘set’ if we can even call it that. Once planned to be Outlaws of Thunder Junction’s Epilogue release, it was bizarrely mushed into the main set before release. Ultimately, The Big Score occupied the same space as The List and contained 30 mythic rare cards. Somewhat unsurprisingly, not […]
