Ok, Survival of the Fittest is banned, what about Jace?
featured 506 days, 20 hours, 20 minutes ago posted by ShadowSketchedShadowSketched 513 days, 5 hours, 21 minutes ago

Ok, Survival of the Fittest is banned, what about Jace?
When Magic the Gathering degenerates into a race between two players to play a card, the game loses much of the strategy and technique players crave. Survival of the Fittest does just that, providing a way to win and answer threats through its tutoring ability. Like Survival, Jace is also a win condition and threat response. Its power is backed up by appearing at maximum copies in six out of the eight world championship decks. Why or why hasn't Jace been banned yet? Check out the speculation here. (more)

MTGO Investor: 50 matches with GW Quest in Standard
The title may be a bit misleading, as this post is a follow-up on the last one. But it IS different - this will be my first take on deck-tech. I was planning to do a different post, but after playing 50 2-man queues with the GW Quest I just have to get this out of my system.As I've said, I've had 50 matches in the 2-mans, and I really like how the deck plays. I scored a 32-18 record, which I don't think shows how good the final version of the deck is. I have started with the following list: An ancient G... (more)
