With the revealing of Phyrexian Fleshgorger, a new card coming in Brothers War, we were introduced to a new mechanic. It is called Prototype and is one of the most interesting and most usable new mechanic in a while, in my personal opinion. The only other one that comes to mind is Ward and possibleContinue reading “New mechanic: Prototype”

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”
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?”
This Week in JANK: Izzet Gods?
Hey, gang. It’s BDC with another Week in Jank. Just when you think there is no Jank to be had, you find those little tidbits in the strangest places. Full disclosure: The deck showcased today is still in development. And maybe it should be dismantled and made in to two or more other decks. ButContinue reading “This Week in JANK: Izzet Gods?”
This week in JANK (Or combos you may have missed)
BDC here. I’m not much of a netdecker. I do have a mono white life gain deck that has nearly gotten me to mythic that is your run of the mill for that color and gimmick. But that’s about as close as I get. For the most part, I’m always on the look for thoseContinue reading “This week in JANK (Or combos you may have missed)”
Nothing to Fear but Tergrid itself (Standard)
Of all the Kaldheim god cards, Tergrid, God of Fear intrigues me the most. I had already been tooling around with zombie tribal and discovered the Dragr Necromancer which is a powerful addition to this deck and can about run the show by itself (as seen in the above video). But Tergrid brings a bitContinue reading “Nothing to Fear but Tergrid itself (Standard)”
Kaldheim: Vorinclex Standard
By BDC Fresh off of Wotc’s Week of Metal where we got looks at some of the gods, equipment, dwarves and new planeswalkers among other things, how could we have known that lurking in the outer recesses of the fandom, there was a creature of unimaginable chaos about to descend upon us. I mean, weContinue reading “Kaldheim: Vorinclex Standard”
Dwarves: A Tribe Reignited
Dwarfs have been around since the start of Magic: The Gathering. It is one of the original tribes and to me one of the most underserved of them all. There have been cards here and there and they have even been really showcased here and there, mainly Kaladesh…
Weekend Speculation: Elves in Kaldheim
A great deal of us are looking forward to the upcoming Kaldheim set and, at the same time, are a bit apprehensive. And with good reason. Wotc has had their moments of brilliance and, at the same time, dropped the ball completely at times. So it should be no surprise that tentative optimism is aboutContinue reading “Weekend Speculation: Elves in Kaldheim”
