Magic Online has a problem. A card value problem. In a recent Channel Fireball article, Florian Koch showed just how much card prices have fallen over the past few years: That's right. To own a playset of the cheapest version of every Magic card ever printed on MTGO would have cost you roughly $28,000 in […]

Welcome back, folks. It's been a while since I last wrote an article, in large part because I've been unwilling to make any financial moves on MTGO before reading the December 6th announcement about competitive play on Arena. What is announced there could have major ramifications for investing on MTGO, and so I've been very […]

Pauper is a MTG Online format that only allows cards printed as Commons in deck building. Though the format was meant to be a cheap and accessible way to play Magic, some of the staple Commons are now worth multiple dollars. Many popular archetypes have been converted into Pauper decks. Some of the most common […]
