    Teaching decks

    Well, this gives me a lot to think about. I was, at least in part, basing my notions on the approaches that WotC have taken themselves with this stuff in various attempts (Duels computer games, sample decks, starter products, etc.) and it's possible that it's conventional wisdom that doesn't...

    Sensei's Divining Top is banned in Legacy

    But really, I live 25 minutes away from that building. And I'm sure I can acquire an orange sign. So if that's what it takes, I can employ this method.

    Magic 2012 Event Decks: Spidey (Illusionary Might) vs Oversoul (Vampire Onslaught)

    You go to 10. Second main phase I'll sac Bloodghast to Viscera Seer, and then because I wasn't on the ball, I have to wait until I get home to see the top card of my library again...

    Teaching decks

    I've been thinking that it might be a good idea to put some decks together for introducing people to Magic... If you haven't already seen them, every year WotC produces decks called variously "welcome decks," "sample decks," "demo packs," and probably some other things. These are simple...

    Iconic Masters

    http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/hascon-and-kickoff-our-25th-anniversary-2017-04-20 Weird that they'd actually have a second Masters set this year. MM3 was great, but I'm already suspicious of this one... I am no fan of this relatively recent design philosophy that each of...

    Magic Memories: Fluctuator

    We had a guy in our playgroup named Chris, and for a while, Nick and Chris had similar schedules and interests, so they were hanging out together a lot and playing Magic. Ultimately, Chris probably became a better player than Nick or myself, but we knew him back when he was inexperienced, and...

    Amonkhet Preview

    There would almost never be a point in casting Nissa, Steward of the Elements with X at 0, because she'd have 0 loyalty and die as a state-based effect before you could activate her +2. But it's worth noting that a planeswalker that costs 3 mana often sees tournament play and is reasonably...

    Magic 2012 Event Decks: Spidey (Illusionary Might) vs Oversoul (Vampire Onslaught)

    I move the card I see from Scry 1 to the bottom of my library. UUD, Gatekeeper of Malakir with kicker, targeting you. Assuming no responses, I'll attack with Viscera Seer and Bloodghast. Done after that (if there are no responses, but I might be forgetting something with Phyrexian mana or...

    Warhammer Quest: The Sylvan Epic

    -Ty's Pit Training kicks in. He moves and attacks before the first round of combat starts. -Ty applies Blade Wash to his Fist Spike. From now on, it is a Magic Fist Spike. Also, for this turn and the next one, the weapon gets +1 to hit. -Ty charges the goblin big boss across from him, but gets...

    What are your top 5 most memorable cards?

    I recently saw a video that posed this question. I'll find the video again at some point. I gave it some thought and found restricting it to just five cards to be a bit challenging. There are so many that would be honorable mentions, or ones that I'd really want to include. If it was "top 100"...
