The author's original use of 'they' has been restored.] Let me be straight with you for a minute, readers. I am very new to writing. Such a shock, I know. Therefore, this […]

    Burning Inquiry — Yelling "YOLO" with Yidris

    I'm getting old and irrelevant FAST. However, being a high school teacher does keep one fresh to the way young people talk (pause while young people everywhere groan).

    Dig Through Time — Mercadian Masques

    Today's Dig Through Time brings you some of my top card picks from 1999's Mercadian Masques. This set is unique because it didn't introduce new mechanics but new creature types: Mercenary, Rebel, and Spellshaper. I won't talk about Mercenaries or Rebels, because they're a touch too parasitic; however, Spellshapers, I believe, don't get the credit they deserve. While […]

    Partner Focus — Ishai, Ojutai Dragonspeaker

    Suppose, theoretically, that you are already bored with . You've already built Atraxa as Infect, Planeswalkers, Thallid tribal, and even Angel/Horror tribal just to tone it down a notch. I've played multiple games recently against two different Atraxa builds at the same time, which is a testament to her power, popularity, and versatility. However, maybe you want to try […]
