Disappearing Act

(Editor’s Note: Against my better judgement, we are going to run yet another “Magic just hasn’t got the same appeal anymore”, but this one feels different. It just might be the last for a while as I explore other games.) At this point, I’m not even sure that I can call it a lull anymore. […]

Back in the Saddle

(Editor’s Note: Holy shoot! We haven’t been around for a month now! No podcast, no articles, no videos, only a few tweets. This is no way to run an operation. However, we’re back and have some new things in development that we will be unveiling over the next few weeks. Stay tuned!) You may have

Quick Hits: Magic Origins Duels

(Editor’s Note: Please report any one you see playing only basic mountains in their deck. If you see something, say something. Together, we can defeat this red menace.) I have not been a fan of Magic Origins so far. Initially, I wanted the set to be good. I got back to a point where I

Making Friends

(Editor’s Note: Two straight articles about Origins sealed, new deck ideas, plus a possible new play group. Not bad for a set that neither one of us really likes all that much. The MtG universe is indeed a strange one.) Neither Chris nor I are remotely sociable creatures. We’re both content with a small circle

Quick Hit (MtG: Origins)

(Editor’s Note: We promised two new articles and Episode 7 of the podcast a week or so ago. This article was supposed to be 2 out of 3 ain’t bad, but it never happened. If that didn’t implant an earworm firmly into that part of your brain, enjoy the following video.) I finally broke down

Is the Magic Gone?

(Editor’sNote: We’ve been AWOL here for about a month. I know that I said that wouldn’t happen again, but I misjudged the amount of work that this summer class has taken and it got in the way. I won’t promise that we’re all the way back, but two articles and the latest episode of the

Episode 6 – Do You Want to Build Some Standard?

First, apologies for the sound quality.  We got a new set up and I didn’t test it.  I thought that I had it figured out before recording, but I didn’t.  The sound quality will be much better next month. On the Tabletop – We give a review of Dragons of Tarkir finally and talk a

My Case for Proxies

(Editor’s Note: TLDR: Don’t counterfeit Magic cards, but proxies definitely have a place in the community.) We went to our “usual” place on Saturday for Free Comic Book Day. I put usual in quotes because this has only be a tradition for two years running but we have gone to the same place both times.

Dudes Playing Magic

(Editor’s Note: Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, as they say.) I have expressed my admiration for the Star City Games stream on the page more than once. Some of the play leaves a bit to be desired and can be painful to watch, especially in the early rounds. To be honest, all around
