A glorious day for EDH! I will begin the important work immediately.

If your win condition is something other than, "exile all cards from all decks from the game, with the last card being exiled also ending the turn," just keep refining.

Right, I was thinking of Lost Mine duplicating the effect of a Tendrils, rather than using the actual card. The treasure token from the Mine Tunnels room is sufficient for Bomat Courier and Elixir of Immortality to provide unbounded dungeon venturing, not constrained by initial library size, as...

Thanks Oversoul! The timeline you presented gives some really interesting and informative context, makes me excited to see if Magic maintains its momentum and what that might bring about for the early 2030s, based on those patterns. Your personal insight on popularity is really helpful as well...

Hello again all! This is Psarketos; the site changes over the past few years seem to have eaten my old account information. Looking at Magic again for the first time in a while, I am wondering what perspectives you have on the Pioneer format. Does it have a strong long term future, or does it...
