Sygg-nature Move In honor of the recent release of Duel Decks: Merfolk vs Goblins, we're going to do something fun for this week's Commander Showdown. Normally this series compares and contrasts commanders with similar abilities. For example, Tishana vs Zegana focused on two Simic card drawing powerhouses, and Hapatra vs The Scorpion God honed in on commanders that use -1/-1 […]

Ultra Budget Brews - Daxos of Meletis Hello, and welcome back to another addition of Ultra Budget Brews, the column that builds entire EDH decks that contain no card costing more than $1. As someone who writes about EDH, you would assume that I probably play more EDH than any other kind of Magic. You'd […]

Way of the Fist Hello EDH enthusiasts, and welcome to the Underdog's Corner! If you have never read this series before, I want to wish you a warm welcome and thank you for reading. For this series, I often cover a commander that gets overshadowed for one reason or another. That general may have a […]

We've all been there. At some point this game which once inspired such lustful joy becomes a frustrating grind. Somewhere between the reserved list and the banned list, netdecking and token promos, boundless infinite combos and constricting real-life circumstances; it is here that players must reconsider the spaces for Magic: The Gathering in their lives.

Patrick Sippola here, reporting from front lines of the jank wars, bringing you what can only be described as combos. The best thing about finding new interactions between cards is that sometimes an idea strikes you to just make a small change to a type of deck that is already out there. This month is […]

The release of Amonkhet brought with […]

Do You Feel Lucky, Cyberpunk? Cyber security is something that most people (and until recently many businesses) take for granted. You throw up your firewall, install Norton, and call it good. You’re safe, right? After all, it’s just some hooligan in their mom’s basement trying to get your credit card to buy a new Xbox. […]

This article is part 7 of a 10 part series covering the Singleton Guild Wheel Project, a 10 deck project in which 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 […]

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 […]

Suppose, theoretically, that you are already bored with [card]Atraxa, Praetors' Voice[/card]. You've already built Atraxa as Infect, Planeswalkers, Thallid tribal, and even Angel/Horror tribal just to tone it down a notch. I've played multiple games recently against two different Atraxa builds at the same time, which is a testament to her power, popularity, and versatility. However, maybe you want […]
