It is often said that green is the most powerful color in Commander, possessing a glut of useful tools that feel almost disproportionate to what other colors are capable of. Of course, I've played decks that use Green, like Muldrotha and Marisi, but I've never played a mono-Green deck......until...
Now that Core Set 2021 has been given some opportunity to percolate in the wilds, it's time to delve back into the Arena to see what we experience.We played two decks today, both Control decks. Though one was in Esper colors and the other was in Sultai.The thing this recording impressed upon me the...
Well, this was supposed to be the week I went to Anthrocon. You might be surprised to know that there is some fierce competition in the intersection between furries and MTG players. I have a Kenrith and a Muldrotha deck that I've been prepared for the occasion, but obviously the quarantine...
There's nothing quite like a knock-down, drag out battle where every player gets the chance to take command of the game at least once. Three decks, all of the same relative power level, making strong plays, and sowing fear and excitement into their competitors.This was the exact kind of match that...

For that reason, I thought it would be fun to give Brawl a shot.Building myself some new brews to test out this new (to me) format, let us see how the format,...
Finally, after two long weeks of no Commander gameplay from my playgroup due to extenuating circumstances, we managed to gather enough players for a round of my favorite Magic format. And on my birthday, no less.That's right, we're playing Tiny Leaders! No, wait. I mean EDH. Of course, I mean...
Every now and then, a deck comes to light that is so surprising in it's effectiveness that it takes seeing it in action to truly understand how powerful they can be. This is one of those types of decks.That's right, we're staying in the bike lane with a Jeskai Cycling deck. Don't be fooled by the...
