Non-Basically Speaking — Lady Evangela
Hello friends and forgotten Legends, 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. At this point in my Commander career I believe I owe it to myself to build […]

Partner Focus — Kraum, Ludevic's Opus
Just for fun, try going into an IKEA, buying a few things at random, then dumping all the parts in one pile and throwing away the instructions. See what you come up with, Ludevic-style. Kraum.

Intellectual Offering — Ghoulcaller Gisa

Low Market — Zada Spellslinger
The Daily Grind Here on Low Market, we do our level best to balance out what sorts of budget decks we build, in terms of both colors used and highlighted archetypes. Unfortunately, there are occasional deficiencies. Today we push the pendulum back towards equity by shining the spotlight on an underused color (mono-red) in a […]

School, work, the responsibilities of life; each has the potential to become menial tasks we're perpetually chained to. Of course there are ways to cope with this stark truth.
