Privileged Perspective 1: Genesis
Hi! My name is Ross. I typically prefer to keep these initial introductions pretty short, since you will hopefully learn more about me through my writing than a ham-fisted miniature biography. Perhaps you are familiar with some of my many award-winning tweets? Haha, you’re right, that WAS a good one! Take that, status quo! The...
Post-Pro Tour Finance: Khans of Tarkir
As I’m sure all of you are aware, the pro tour was last weekend and with it came an bunch of unsustainable spikes. What does that mean exactly? I’m glad you asked! The Hype Many cards spiked over the PT weekend based on the amount of play and success they saw. Among them are [card]Pearl...
Casually Infinite – Learning to Better Assess the Power of Our Decks
With the exception of drafts that occasionally go truly awry, we frequently find ourselves playing with an unimpressive pool of cards, only to do very well in a tournament. On the other side of this coin, I frequently come out of a draft very happy with my cards only to pull off a mediocre finish....

Conjured Currency #35: My Story
Welcome back! I’m going to preface this week’s rant by mentioning that there’s a low likelihood of Magic finance material ahead.

To be completely honest, I’m not 100-percent sure...
Unified Theory of Commander: Threats
What kind of deck do you really want to build? This question is at the starting point of every Commander deck, isn’t it? There’s no sense in building a deck that won’t be fun to pilot. So EDH players need to start with this question and then continually revisit it to make sure that the...
Weekend Magic: 10/10-10/12 (Pro Tour KTK Edition)
Welcome back, guys! I have some very exciting things to share with you today thanks to Pro Tour Khans of Tarkir happening last weekend.

What Wizards Wants: Reprints
Magic players can be selfish. When Wizards of the Coast makes a decision or a change to the game, most people talk about how it affects them. Standard players talk about how it affects Standard, Cube enthusiasts talk about possible inclusions from the new set, Modern and Legacy players look for playable eternal cards, and so...
