    Magic Memories: Tolarian Academy

    These days, major Standard tournaments following the release of new sets are the norm, and now they even name tournaments after new sets, so we have "Pro Tour Dominaria." But that was not always the case. Large-scale tournaments used to be seasonal affairs, so sometimes the tournaments would be...

    Event Decks: Spidey (Wrath of the Mortals) vs Oversoul (Ultimate Sacrifice)

    Sorry about the delay. Got sidetracked with other stuff. And here I was grabbing Conquering Hordes thinking that surely you must be confused, but then I reread your post. Makes sense and I believe I have Ultimate Sacrifice already sleeved up from testing it against my casual deck a couple of...

    Magic Memories: Tolarian Academy

    I don't want to extend the scope of my analysis to say which of those cards should or shouldn't have been banned/restricted. That's not what I'm trying to get at here. Instead, what I want to emphasize is the sheer volume and the apparent thought process. It seems completely fair to say that...

    Magic Memories: Tolarian Academy

    Humor my crass summation of some mid-00's cinema. It is my primitive attempt to emulate the human construct known as "metaphor." And in drawing this tenuous connection, I expend more exposition than I save. A futile gesture, but that's what I'm all about... In the movie Kill Bill, the...

    Dominaria Magic Story

    It's actually the opposite in Magic. Irritating because the D&D model was already established, I know. Early depictions of demons were inconsistent and devils were extremely rare prior to Innistrad, but eventually WotC went with something like... Demons: big, strong, powerful, have wings...

    Magic Memories: Necropotence

    Well, I've probably rambled on about Necropotence enough for now. So I'll move on to some other topic unless some relevant Memories surface on this one. Some of my fondest memories in my history of playing Magic are of playing Necro control decks in the late 1990's. But as much as "The Skull"...

    Event Decks: Spidey (Wrath of the Mortals) vs Oversoul (Ultimate Sacrifice)

    So, unlike the other Event Decks, March of the Multitudes was made for the Modern format, not Standard. If you're aware of that and want to throw it into the mix anyway, I'm game.

    Event Decks: Spidey (Underworld Herald) vs Oversoul (Inspiring Heroics)

    Yeah, I think I just got a stronger start with the Underworld Heralds deck and had enough removal to push damage through. Good game. I was anticipating that you might do the same to me, but the topdeck gods were apparently not favoring you this time.
