Weird Harvest — Forget Cruel Control, this is Gruul Control!
Hello all and welcome back to Weird Harvest, the column that’s committed to keeping commander janky. Last week we fulfilled a reader request for a tribal treason deck, but this week I wanted to shift gears and try something that some of you may have never seen before. I’m sure that most of you are […]
Non-Basically Speaking — Balan, Wandering Knight
Hello friends and treasure seekers, and welcome back to EDHREC and our continuing biweekly column, Non-Basically Speaking, the series that strives to identify non-basic lands that should be considered valuable staples or hidden gems based on their visibility on EDHREC. I have to admit, selecting a topic of conversation this week was a bit tough […]
Low Market — Pi-rogues!
Admiral Beckett Brass art by Jason Rainville I Like the Cut of your Jib Getcher cutlass and hoist the mainsail: we're headed to the plane of Ixalan, a world of wonder and adventure and complex tribal mechanical themes. We had many options for this week's budget deck: a crew of pirates led by , […]
Dig Through Time — Weatherlight
Weatherlight came out in 1997 and kicked off the famous Weatherlight Saga—which has been compared to the more recent, more infamous Gatewatch, um...not-Saga? The set had three mechanics—flanking, phasing, and cumulative upkeep; while the Saga featured such famous characters as Squee, Gerrard, Captain Sisay, Hana, Mirri, and others. Flanking saw print again with last year's . Phasing […]
NEWS — An EDHREC Powered Scryfall
A message from Don, the founder of EDHREC: In this article, Josh goes through a new collaboration between EDHREC and Scryfall. These two websites do complementary things already and it's hard to build a deck without using both of them. Scryfall has become my and many of my friends' go-to card search website recently due to its ease of […]

NEWS — New EDHREC Feature! Themes!
A message from Don, the founder of EDHREC: In this article, Chris is going to go through our new features on EDHREC that revolve around "themes"! I'm really excited about it because there are so many fun hidden archetypes and this should make it easier to find them. Tribes were our first theme and those were […]
EDH Political Science — Land Ho!
Cartography has been political since the beginning of history. The act of making a map has an intrinsic relation to the boundaries governments set. Creating a world within a page for others to see manufactures a perception on the world it depicts. This could be a fabrication. John Smith created new towns and territories to […]
Ultra Budget Brews — Dragons
Hello and welcome back to Ultra Budget Brews! Normally, we build decks where every card, commander included, costs under $1, but this week we are doing something a bit different than normal. If you are invested enough into EDH to be reading this, then you probably are more than aware that WotC just released 4 […]
Commander Showdown — Mathas vs Queen Marchesa
Mardu Politics Commander 2017 has graced us with a host of new tribal commanders, from Cats to Dragons to Cat Dragons. However, for this week's Commander Showdown, I'd like to take a step back from all the tribal synergies and focus instead upon a strange and intriguing new inclusion to the 'Vampiric Bloodlust' precon. His name is , and he's out […]
