Eric's Nykthos image on the front page has a giant fucking cursor on it. Whomp whomp.

Decklists?

Setting some records today:

Shitty common: http://ow.ly/i/4hdu9

Somebody asked me a question about what type of chat bubbles are cuter. My Google Image search was unhelpful:

I gotta say, in the abstract, the multicolor gods are in a much better space design-wise than the monocolor ones. I hope they print some sweet ones so that we can abolish this "encourage monocolor decks in a multicolor draft format" nonsense.

True-Name Nemesis

We had our book club discussion on Ubik, and the overwhelming consensus was that it seemed like the author had like, three ideas for concepts he wanted to bake into a book, and ultimately chose the least interesting of the three. It seemed like the book was going to be fantastic about 25% of the...

Has anybody at Wizards explained why they gave Blue an army-in-a-can card?

I really like the idea of playing with a haste-granting tapland. Like, you gotta do some prep work and sequencing to get proper value out of it, but it can really throw your opponent for a loop. Hasty Grim Lavamancer, go!

Maybe Volrath's Stronghold.

Now I'm imagining some alternate-universe version of MTGS where you can include two copies of a card in your cube so long as they have different set symbols. I mean, what is really the difference between: and "Sweet, now our cubes can have two Mind Sculptors!"

But seriously, this is a good idea. Not really sure what to put in it though.

I dunno, after being so utterly unimpressed with their last Dark Confidant variant, I'm really not expecting much here. Drawing a card during your first upkeep with Confidant and being able to keep him out of combat provides most of the value. There are very few creatures Pain Seer doesn't trade...
