Today's article subject spawned from a discussion that began in the QS Discord chat. One of our members was contemplating stepping away from the game for a while and wanted to know the best place to park his money and/or what to trade into. As expected, a lot of people immediately jumped to Power. The general […]

The holidays are in full swing and the new year is right around the corner. And as some of you may know, the stock market has been a bit shaky in the last month or so. But it seems Magic is still doing pretty well during this slightly volatile time. I think a good portion […]

Ultimate Masters is still in full bounce back mode, and the last World Magic Cup has come to a finish. Plus, some sweet Ravnica Allegiance spoilers have hit the market so there’s gonna be a nice mix of things to talk about again in this piece. Owing to the spoilers, this might be a little […]

Ultimate Masters has hit the market and there’s already been a lot of movement. The prices of the reprints dropped as they usually do when a set first hits the market. But it seems like the prices have started to rebound a lot quicker this time around. There’s a slight possibility they could drop again […]

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 […]

Boom. Midnight tonight is the first chance at a prerelease and I am stoked. I didn't even play in the last one so I am doubly stoked for this one. I plan to do a few events and I hope that if any of you have any stories about busted opens, sick plays or hot […]

Following the shockwave of last week's banlist announcement a lot will happen for MTGO speculators in February, including a Pro Tour, a Modern MOCS season and Fate Reforged release events. Sylvain tells us how to get ready.

Come see all our Fate Reforged spoiler coverage Renowned Weaponsmith I was pretty sure a card called "Vial of Dragonfire" would be in the set, and I'm puzzled that it's not. Heart-Piercer Bow is an uncommon from Khans of Tarkir, putting your chance of getting these two cards together in Limited somewhere between "diddly" and […]

Be sure to check out in-depth coverage on the spoiler page, but I wanted to highlight a few cards here that may have a financial impact. Sage's Reverie Foils of this seem like a relatively safe bet. I bet they start out at like $0.25 and I bet it takes a while for Bruna, Light […]
