This is the first article from my new series, MTG Questions. You might be familiar with the Hold ‘Em & Fold ‘Em series (rebranded as MTG Metagame Finance), which takes a tournament-oriented perspective. I decided to start this series to focus on more general aspects of MTG finance. The two series will work together, as when […]

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 […]

Many people have been saying there’s been a little less movement regarding Magic finance during the past few weeks or months. Some people are saying there’s a slowdown. Others are saying it’s normal because the holidays are around the corner and players have less money to spend on Magic cards. Regardless, Magic continues to move […]

Much like with Nekusar or Omnath, the Commander community is abuzz with excitement surrounding The Gitrog Monster. David looks at some juicy speculation targets that pair well with the newcomer.

Breaking up is hard to do. Breaking things in Commander is easy. Carlos is back with a Gifts Ungiven deck, minus the Gifts. Really!

What's resilient to hate, eats multiplayer tables alive, and locks down the game on a dime? A five-color, Child of Alara led land deck of course!

I am an Aggro player at heart. Since this is my first article, I thought I'd start things off with an Aggro deck that seems like it can float under the radar with your current meta. It's a Green and Red Aggro deck... I was working on a similar list, but since that was put on the shelf for now, I will work within what I call a “development list phase.”
