Paul’s Pre-GP Rundown
You have less than a month to sell your [card]Mutavault[/card]s or trade them away for something insane five minutes before a PTQ starts. This card should be in an event deck soon, and even if it’s not, demand can’t get much higher. There’s no upside left in the card, and it’s time to turn your...
Andrew Colman – Serum Visions: Sphinx’s Brew-velation
Hello and welcome to Serum Visions everyone It’s been a quiet week in the MTG world it seems. Or maybe I haven’t been paying any attention. I was stretching to come up with a topic that was related to the MTG world and my wife recommend to “just give them a good old history lesson.” I though...

DJ Johnson – Getting Value Out of Lesser Commons and Uncommons
I don’t think I would be alone if I said that the MTG finance world is surrounded by a lot of misconceptions, especially as of late. With the recent [card]Splinter Twin[/card] and [card]Phyrexian Obliterator[/card] price spikes, speculators are pointed at maliciously. Casuals and grinders alike believe that those of us who want to make money...
Brian Dale – Investing 202: Corbin v.s Ryan, Round 1
Go big or go home. Two wrongs don’t make a right, but three rights do make a left. I am never going to see a merman, ever! The Dow is up due to speculators. Oil is down due to speculators. These are common phrases in today’s investment world. One would think that speculators are responsible...
Anthony Capece – Going Deep
I am not really one for the called shot in Magic finance. Aside from the fact that there is no accountability whatsoever, I’m not the type to deploy my capital based on one person’s opinion (unless that person is me). I read two or three Magic finance articles each week that use this methodology for...

Welcome to the Puzzle Box, everyone! It has been an awesome Christmas season! Lots of family and food and beer. I’m lucky that my brother was the one to introduce me to Magic. I bring my cube and we always fire couple of quick drafts after everyone has tired of each other. There was lots...
Brian Dale – Investing 201: Tracking
Investing 201: Tracking Buy low sell, high. Double down when the dealer shows a six. Never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well known is this—always track your progress.
