Alright dudes- I only have limited time to write this thing (“Real Life” is standing in front of me and making threatening gestures). Before we start I’ve got to be honest, I am still learning this deck- what the right plays are, what cards should be in the sideboard, ect.  I played a PTQ a few weeks back in Indy with a similar list but I was running Gift Ungiven and Dread Return (Get it, Sac Thopter tokens – LOL), Polymorph, Iona and Beacon of Immortality. I liked the power of Iona but the re-animation ... (more)

MTG Metagame: Midwest Master Series [Standard]

I layered the bedding on the floor between the sink and the wall. It was much warmer here then by the door. I crunched into my cave-like sleeping hole. The hotel fridge kept me from fully extending my legs. It was 2am and I was still awake. The Midwest Master Series in Indiana was seven hours away. I did what I always do to prepare for a big tournament, which is nothing. I might peruse some top 8 lists or play some local tourneys with my deck choice- but these are things that I already do in the cou... (more)

This post is for all you Timmys out there. I recently got an email from a friend asking for help with a Polymorph deck. I went to the drawing board and asked myself, “How I would build a virtually creatureless deck in standard?” This is what I came up with. Enjoy! Creatures 2 Progenitus Spells 4 Thopter Foundry 4 Angel Song 3 Path To Exile 2 Elspeth, Knight-Errant 3 Negate 4 Polymorph 4 Mistvein Borderpost 4 Fieldmist Borderpost 4 Ponder 3 Day of Judgment 2 Liliana...

The Beginning [Tricks of the Trade]

If you are looking to make money through trading cards and fuel your habit then you are in the right place. Before we jump into values, theories and resources – let’s start at the beginning. My journey into magic is a bit awkward. Magic has always been somewhat of a conflict for me. With so many important things in life, the question always stirs beneath the surface, “Why does Magic deserve my time and energy?” (more)

MTG Metagame: Ziggurat "Bear" Control WGBu [Standard]

The deck is in concept form but I wanted to get the conversation started. The deck takes advantage of Ancient Ziggurat to play multifunctional creature that allow you to “soft lock” your opponent. All of your creatures are white so Brave the Elements protects them from removal as well as lets you swing through their team if they have blockers. The deck is also packing what I call "PLAN B" (Plan Baneslayer Angel), which consist of hoping for an unanswered turn five Baneslayer and flying into victory. ... (more)

“Jund is Taking Over the World.” That was the title of my last blog for standard and that has come to fruition.  Five of the top eight decks at the latest SCG 5 were servings of the BGR Bloodbraid salad known as Jund. Here is the link to the Top 16 Don’t Panic I am hearing murmurs on the forums that "Jund is the new Fae" - it’s not. Jund was a Tier 1 deck at the end of last season and it stayed in tack after rotation. It has the thousands of hours of testing under its belt so it stands to reason ... (more)

Jund is taking over the world! [Standard]

I did some testing with my Bant deck against some of the Friday Morning (Midnight Madness) Drafters. The order of the day was Jund followed by Vampires. I have to say that the Jund deck is really good. I should distinguish that the Jund that I am talking about is Jund Aggro, not Jund Mid-Range. Mid-Range has Cobra’s, Ob Nixilis, Hellkites and Broodmates. Here is a Jund Aggro 2.0 list: (more)

MTG Metagame: Armed and Dangerous [Zendikar Pre-Release, Release Guide]

The week before every pre-release I do research on the coming set. This research isn’t about what cards to play in my sealed deck or what the top draft picks are; instead this research is based on getting the most out of the weekend financially, through enhancing my collection and building up my trade stock. I’m not a big-time dealer but I sell enough cards to support my habit and kick-in on the home-front when needed. To keep the cash flow coming I have to be prepared for pre-release/ release weekend. ... (more)

MTG Metagame: Bob, The Second Coming? [Lotus Cobra]

It's hard to find someone who will say that Lotus Cobra is just plain bad. The general consensus is Lotus Cobra is good, but the question is How good? I'm not going do what some magic writers do when a ridiculous card is released and just stick it in every deck known to man (I won’t mention any names Cough –Patrick Chapin -Cough)- "Look, Lotus Cobra Fae!". I would rather talk about the intrinsic value that the card brings. Landfall – Whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, y... (more)

MTG Metagame: Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy (Guide to Pimping your MTG Collection)

In the immortal words of Ice Cube: “Pimpin’ ain’t easy…”- this is not only true of rides (cars) and cribs (houses) but also of your Magic collection. When I first set my eyes on the pages and pages of pure pimping carnage that is “The Pimp Thread” in the vintage section of the Star City Games forums- I was amazed. My first thought was “I could never build a deck as pimp as that…”  This moment was short-lived and my despair quickly gave way to ambition. That’s all you really need to become a true pimper: ...
