Dinos on a Plane

We're not talking about Ixalan here my brothers and sisters. We recently held our store championships here in Manila and a friend of mine won the tournament with UB control that played Nezahal, Primal Tide. This Loch Ness Monster of a dinosaur is priced so cheap it's criminal! It wins games on its own, it's... Continue Reading →

Izzet GPG

Hi Alchemists, God-Pharoah's Gift is one of the most flavorful cards from Amonkhet, letting you raise an army of Eternals every combat step. It was also very successful in the standard format which forced some decks to play graveyard hate in respect to its power if left unanswered. There are two ways to build the... Continue Reading →

Dubious Challenge

Hello Alchemists, Today I am sharing with you a fun looking deck from an avid reader and follower of the blog. He goes with the name Pan Doe who brews deck while traveling the world, literally, because he is aboard some ship and kills time by playing and brewing. Today I want to share his...

BW Toolbox Control

Possible breakthrough ahead. So I re-analyzed how the BG Azor toolbox deck works and found out that it can actually be ported to White which makes the deck better against aggro decks. I also noticed that the BG shell can take some time assembling the pieces to win the game which is not always good... Continue Reading →

Big Fat Flier

Hello Brewers! This won't be a long deck tech because I don't have the time but I don't want this idea to slip pass me! So this deck tech is my attempt to revisit my Favorable Winds deck that used flying pirates like Siren Stormtamer and Kitesail Freebooter to win a tempo-based game and crash... Continue Reading →

Azor’s Gateway

Azor's Gateway went into a BG shell that went 5-0 in an MTGO competitive league. This caught Eric Froehlich's attention and he wrote about it in Channel Fireball. In my local meta, I also found RB players and Mono-Black players trying this artifact out thanks to Reddit and Saffron Olive who made a deck that... Continue Reading →

Jund Value.dec

Gonti, Lord of Luxury is one of my favorite cards in standard and I pre-ordered 4 copies because I knew he was a decent piece in a mid-range deck. Cards with ETB abilities can be treated as a 2-in-1 card because you get a creature and a spell-based effect in 1 card. Gonti has a... Continue Reading →

Angrath Control

With Protour Rivals of Ixalan in the books, we all witnessed the power of precision control elements that can deprive opponents from playing normal Magic. Ensnaring Bridge together with a hand-less strategy and milling your opponent off of key cards that can remove the Bridge was a solid game plan against a meta filled with... Continue Reading →

Bant Lands

Today I took a deck I read about and studied online that was piloted by Jim Davis which he called Bant Lands. Basically its an Approach deck at its core but instead of playing a straight control shell, Jim played a more proactive list using ramp to accelerate his mana, thin his deck and cast...
