We used to call it ‘Eternal Central plus Recall and Time Vault unrestricted’ or … Continue reading Restrictions: Less is More?
Here’s to one very special pile of cards. Thomas Ashby (TA), proud Toronto Citizen of Brass and lover of Magic cards, has built and refined his ‘Blasphemer’ deck over the last couple years. Maybe you came across it at Eternal Week-End last year, or at Toronto’s own Fire Ball and Winter Blast. What’s for certain … Continue reading Most creative! Blasphemer

I have a slight obsession with Guardian Beast. So I wanted to build a dedicated deck around it, which we rarely see. And let's face it: flipping Orbs has got to be one of the most fun things ever, bar none. I had been theory-crafting the deck concept for over a year, but it’s only … Continue reading Beast Island vs the DFC | Ottawa 2019
