Esper Dragons Brew Crushes Competition in High-Powered Format
Tarkir: Dragonstorm was an awesome set for Dragon enthusiasts. In addition to bringing a bunch of bombs to the table, a multitude of thematic payoffs (like the Dragonstorm Enchantment cycle) helped these Dragons make an impact on Constructed.

Tarkir: Dragonstorm Powerhouse Turbocharges MTG Combo Archetype
It’s now been over a month since Underworld Breach was banned in Modern, and the metagame has certainly shifted as a result. Decks like Boros Energy and Eldrazi ramp only grew in popularity given the void that the ban left behind. However, the ban was not a death sentence to Mox Opal combo decks by […]
Tarkir: Dragonstorm Commander Deck Upgrade Spikes 1021.92%
Tarkir: Dragonstorm’s time in the spotlight is slowly coming to an end. While Dragons are always going to be popular, there’s no matching the might of Final Fantasy.

Banned MTG Combo Piece Makes Waves in Alternative Format
Standard is currently a rather hostile environment. Izzet Prowess has been on an absolute tear, representing over 35% of the field on day 2 of the Regional Championship in the U.S. While this has made it a bit difficult to successfully innovate within the format, there were still some unique strategies that found success at […]
