Let this sink in. Before Ghalta got printed, Combustible Gearhulk usually hits betwee 0 to 18 because it normally goes to a deck that's filled with 6-drops. Saffron Olive made a deck that he called "6-drop Tribal" where everything in the deck costs 6 to maximize Combustible's damage output. There's currently an RG Monster list... Continue Reading →
So Ramunap Red is gone. Standard lost its free shock in the form of Ramunap Ruins and many RR players are trying to salvage the shell and find ways to put more reach into their decks. Together with the loss of Rampaging Ferocidon, RR players have more reasons to slap in more Chandra, possible go... Continue Reading →
Who's excited for the new Standard season? The banning will apply on the 19th of January and we will see a lot less energy and maybe a toned down Ramunap Red list in your local gaming shop every night. With standard going a 'forced' rotation we can expect a different feel with how decks will... Continue Reading →
Hello Alchemists! I hope everybody's pre-release were exciting and action packed! Nothing feels better than merfolks killing dinosaurs and vampires sucking on pirates in Ixalan, right? I recently got emails requesting to update some of the decks I've posted with new cards from Rivals. I think this was a valid request and I guess it's... Continue Reading →

For us Magic players, the best gifts are deck boxes, sleeves, accessories and of course, tons and tons of singles and sealed products. Before we go crazy this season, I'd like to share a couple for more decks... Continue Reading →
Hello All, Anointed Procession decks are now seeing less and less play - moving to the higher performing GPG decks. With the rise of enchantment-based hate like Ixalan's Binding and Cast Out the combo pieces are getting harder and harder to pull off. This got me thinking of making a more direct approach to tokens... Continue Reading →
Yesterday I was able to play my Abzan GPG for the first time and it proved to be very interesting and modestly powerful. The matchup I was up against after 4 rounds were Big Red, Abzan Tokens, RG Beatdown, and Sultai Energy. The Big Red match up was very difficult in both games. He had... Continue Reading →
Hello everyone, To those who kept visiting the page but couldn't see any new content, I apologize. It's been quite busy at work since we're approaching the end of the year. However I stumbled upon a brew that looks exciting and interesting. This brew was triggered by my friend borrowing my Chandra, Torch of Defiance... Continue Reading →
