Hello everyone, A lot of people have been talking about the newest set that brings a nostalgic feel back to Magic.

Scarabs of Discoveries
Hello Alchemists! Before I begin with today's deck tech, I want to tell everyone that the last brew I posted here went 4-0 and won me a Dominaria PR Pass so if you want a fun, competitive and quite consistent deck in standard, I suggest you give it a whirl!

Pia’s Revolution
Hello everyone, I just got back from Singapore and managed to squeeze some modern games at night and stumbled upon Scrap Trawler being used in the Krark-Clan Ironworks (KCI) combo deck and while seeing it in action, I wanted to do something similar in Standard. In Standard, Scrap Trawler looks unimpressive because it needs an... Continue Reading →

The Pros of the game are naturally good at this especially the Japanese who are known for building bizarre decks that look like a hot mess but takes a Pro Tour... Continue Reading →
Dino-mite!
Hello everyone and welcome back to the lab! Today's deck tech is inspired by a friend of mine, Ian Joshua, who played GW aggro that uses Adorned Pouncer, Sram's Expertise cascading into free Servo Exhibitions, and Appeal-to-Authority to give his Adorned Pouncer a huge boost in power and trample to hit me with 14-16 damage....

Golem Stockpile
Hello everyone, It's Saturday morning and I picked up an idea while I was taking my BW tokens deck apart. BW and Abzan tokens are the most successful go-wide strategy in standard as of late and much to their success is the crazy synergy that the deck plays. Hidden Stockpile is the main cog in...
