Take a look around you right now. Are you reading this from a desktop surrounded by loose Magic: The Gathering cards, hopelessly arranged in semi-complete decks of 20-100 cards, some of which are so old that you don’t even remember which MTG set...
Read moreWe had so much new Magic in 2020. A new Theros set was released, companions and modal double-faced cards (MDFC) were introduced, and more bans than any of us want to see again. But we got through it, and 2021 is starting us off with our first new...
Read moreOne of the first sets to ever have a Commander focus was Commander Legends with loads of new cards and reprints for our favorite free-for-all format. It was the first set to mix two of the best formats in Draft and Commander, a set in which you...
Read morePlayers have been enamored with Maze’s End since its release in Dragon’s Maze. It suddenly capped off the cycle of Guildgates with an alternate win condition that demanded you play five colors (or close to it). While Maze’s End decks never took...

Read moreMagic players love giving things nicknames. Mill became the recent keyword for putting cards from a library into the graveyard after years of the nickname given from the card Millstone. Steve, Bob, Gary, the community loves shortening things. We...
Read moreManic Monday, Taco Tuesday, Thirsty Thursday, Friday Night Magic. We sure love our days of the week, don’t we? Midweek Magic might be a little more vague (what, pray tell, is midweek?), but it still kinda rolls off the tongue, right?
