Well it’s spoiler season again and with the cards that were shown off this weekend it got my excitement back up to a whole new high.

Mirror Box: Power Ramp
This bit of janky info comes to you from the twisted mind of BDC. We’ve already gone through a great deal of legendaries that work with the new card, Mirror Box, from the set, Kamigawa, Neon Dynasty. But there is so much to this amazing card. Besides the bonus of having more than one ofContinue reading “Mirror Box: Power Ramp”
Mirror Box: Legendary Gamechanger in Standard
With the addition of Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty, I feel there was a much needed influx of great cards and a return to even greater mechanics. I, personally, haven’t been this excited about a set in a while. But, although I’ve took a tour of the many strong deck builds, I’ve found myself enamored with oneContinue reading “Mirror Box: Legendary Gamechanger in Standard”

A few of you called me crazy and reassured me that TRANSFORMATION as it was inContinue reading “Did Midnight Hunt Fix the Werewolf Mechanic?”

No doubt, there are a lot of great cards from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms that will see play in Commander.

But one of the deckContinue reading “Desert Doom Draw: Iymrith Casual EDH”
Will Orc Tribal Finally Get Its Due in Forgotten Realms?
Now first of all, this is a speculation article not a spoiler. I have no new info about the upcoming MTG set, Adventures in the Forgotten Realms. Unfortunately. What we have plenty of here in the Magic Tavern is opinions and speculation. Lots of it. And we’ve had a discussion recently about some possibilities ofContinue reading “Will Orc Tribal Finally Get Its Due in Forgotten Realms?”
Location! Location! Location: Lands we want in MTG’s Forgotten Realms
Adventures in the FORGOTTEN REALMS is just around the corner and we could not be more stoked for a MTG set. Being old school D&D players and, especially, cutting our roleplaying teeth in Faerun aka The Forgotten Realms, we are the prime target for this type of product. One of the things that sets thisContinue reading “Location! Location! Location: Lands we want in MTG’s Forgotten Realms”
