He is the Peter Pan of Magic, because he can convince the rest of the children that they can fly. They can't really fly, but they think they can. It's because of the hallucinogenic mushrooms he found on the island and then fed to the rest of the kids, just like in Peter Pan. You don't […]

This article is part 6 of a 10 part series covering the Singleton Guild Wheel Project, a 10 deck project where there is only a single copy of any non-basic land among the 10 decks. Each deck uses the color combination of a different Ravnican guild. The methodology is introduced here and expanded upon each week […]

It is very hard to build a deck when you limit yourself from using any of the suggested cards on EDHREC. I'm just saying, making a deck that doesn't use or is a weird and wild experience. Why am I doing this? So that we can have this talk. This talk where I show you […]

Hello, and welcome to my article series “Ultra Budget Brews”! This is a series where we attempt to build fun, and relatively competitive decks in which no card, commander included, costs more than a single George Washington (that's one U.S. dollar, for our non-American listeners). Before we continue, I should introduce myself. I’m Andrew, and […]

Greetings everyone, I'm back once again to highlight deck construction through the use of Pyramid Theory. This time I want to focus on themed decks. A themed deck is a deck which is build around a theme, rather than a commander. Tribal decks are some of the most common examples of this. Some other possible […]

Commander Showdown is a series that compares and contrast two similar commanders, analyzes differences in strategy and deck construction, and evaluates how those differences are represented by the data here on EDHREC. Modern Masters 2017 is just around the corner, and the set is chock full of amazing cards and sweet draft archetypes. The one […]

Some things stand alone. French fries, for example. The phrase "with a side of fries" is a tragedy and shouldn't exist. I'll take fries a la cart any day, giving much thanks for such a bounty. But...have you ever had fries with a milkshake? Now, hold on, because you read that wrong. You see, what […]

In this installment, I continue last […]

Power to the Polis I watched the best player at the table crumble. Yes, I did want to stomp his face in for taking me out first in the prior week’s commander pod, but it was much more than that. He was the clear enemy to me and the people to my left and right. […]

Hello friends and fellow lifegainers, 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. In previous articles we focused on present day Commander favorites Atraxa and Breya, so I felt […]
