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 […]

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.

Carlos is getting into the spirit of the season with Zedruu the Greathearted, but it seems Zedruu is better equipped to be dishing out vengeance instead of gifts!
