We’re going to brew a deck that reflects River Song’s unique abilities, and this is much needed since the rest of this proecon doesn’t really synergize with it (which may be in keeping with the lore of the character but isn’t exactly fun!).
Read moreJumpstart is one of the best ways to onboard a new MTG player. Lord of the Rings Jumpstart may be the perfect vehicle for teaching a friend how to play Magic.
