If you're like me, Kaldheim/Strixhaven may have soured you on dual faced cards. However, as I've said elsewhere I definitely let that bleed over into other cards that don't necessarily deserve it, so I've done some scryfall diving to see what I might have missed. I'm also not posting about any...

So @Jason Waddell I'm sure you've seen this already, but we've probably got a non-zero amount of past or current poker players on here, so I figure it's worth the echo. Jorbs is an excellent streamer, mainly does Slay the Spire but does branch out into other strategy games on occasion, and...

So apparently, according to Jesse mason, m25 draft is better than innistrad draft. Discuss

As much as I'd like to say I'd been staring at the empty text field past the "create thread" button, but that isn't really how I write. I tend to just start typing and edit if I find something really backward. While he hasn't been on these forums in a while, Lucas Childs, known here as Lucre...

Leaks from the set AFTER Hour of Devastation are apparently here o.O :5: Artifact Choose a creature type, they get +1/+1 and cantrip :2: Artifact Peek + Pithing Needle (Nice!) Daring Sabateur :1:? Creature - Human Pirate :2::u:: ~ is unblockable this turn When ~ deals combat damage to a...

So a few of these have been spoiled early, and this guy looks pretty interesting. That's not a horrible body for the cmc, and there's nice things you can do rebounding stuff. Plus it encourages attacking! Also a few terrible things: The cat dragon token is just as adorable as you think it...

So I think I might cave and add some special rules to drafting my cube (Challenging with customs to not overburden your players) I've had a lot of requests recently to add niche cards that only really work in one deck (Typically a pet deck of the requester) and basically go 15th pick the other...

The latest episode of TapTapConcede (the podcast the LRR guys do) is an interesting discussion of how culturally accurate Kaladesh is, lot of interesting stuff there. I especially like the basically totally accidental religious symbolism in Oath of Ajani :P

Well, I'm likely going to regret this, but: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/the-face-walker-problem So first things first: Saffron Olive is a great author, go check out his articles. However, this one is (In a veiled way) about MTG Finance and Standard, both topics I've never found...

So not everyone around here uses ranom art on the internet for cards, but I figure all of you can appreciate some of the cool ass stuff I find :D Here's some bomb ass shit: "Beneath" by Abrar Khan Reminds me of Dandân, but this is probably close enough to magic's current art style to not...

While the title sounds too big picture to glean anything meaningful from, I'd like to ask you a question: What about magic (or other games) do you find fun? I've heard a few common answers for magic specifically. There's a handful of people who love exploring the new sets and learning about...

Well someone ought to. We've got our first 3.5 cards! An interesting sweeper. That free spell is obviously powerful, but the difference between 3 to each creature and 4 (Languish) is too. It's trinket mage, but it searches for something that costs exactly 3. I suppose 0-1 was narrow...

Angle shooting and the like have always been a contentious topic in magic, one which I tend to treat with the attitude of "Oh man, that's neat. Never do that again" but I love seeing the stories of these weird exploits. Here's 3 articles which came up in the wake of the Kentroversy which...

See the title. Under what circumstances are you cutting a whole deck archetype from your cube? (One that's already integrated I mean, not what are you excluding in your initial design) It's a little hard to say "Too weak" or "Too strong" since you can shape the cube to make those statements...

http://whymtgcardsmith.tumblr.com/post/145778371209/a-fun-game-to-play-with-this-card-is-what-card In the grand tradition of fun MTG thought excercises, (See the "change a word" reddit thread for a fun time and a good laugh) Fan favorites from the comments are Warp World Each player shuffles...

Hahaha, gotcha! This is actually about racism and sensibilities (Mostly), but I do hope a few people get fooled by that title. So for quite a while now, this has been a card in my cube: It plays well, it fits well into the environment, it’s not overpowered, and (I think) the flavor works...

Nice article Jason (Link for the Lazy)

A white section can't just be creatures and removal, since that usually leads to too much of one or the other. This thread is for discussing the other cards you add in, things like planeswalkers, combat tricks, anthem effects, Anything that isn't a creature or removal spell To get things...

Received my cube Vault in the mail a week ago, thought it was about time to post my thoughts on the matter: Pros: -this thing looks and feels like it can take a bullet. Your cards are safe, and this thing won't break anytime soon. -fits plenty. My 450 cube is just barely more than one of the...

This card has been psudo-prieviewd for the upcoming summer multiplayer product "Conspiracy", alongside some {4}{B}{W} 4/4 flying day of judgement. Cogwork Librarian {4} Artifact Creature - Construct Draft Cogwork Librarian face up. As you draft a card you may draft an additional card from that...
