Rob talks about one of the reprints in the upcoming Masters 25 set.
Modern
Since last Monday, it seems like Jace and Bloodbraid are everywhere. This should hardly be surprising. Exciting, powerful cards promote similarly excited brewing, and as the decklists reveal, players are actually following through. But this isn’t Eldrazi Winter, and the new decks aren’t obviously overpowered. There’s more going on. It will take a few months before […]
Rob starts the week with a review of a resurgent mythic finisher!
Bloodbraid Elf and Jace, the Mind Sculptor have been unbanned in Modern for a week now. Contrary to what we’ve heard since the announcement, the format is just fine, and perhaps even better: it’s fresher, to be sure, with new decks popping up abusing Modern’s newcomers and benefiting from the metagame warp. One development I […]
The unbannings of Jace, the Mind Sculptor and Bloodbraid Elf are having a big impact on the market, and Adam shares some cards that have the potential to rise in the hype.
What an absolutely wild week for Modern. Playing with Bloodbraid Elf and Jace, the Mind Sculptor legal has been incredibly exciting and exhausting. With so many shells to try, and so many changes in deck-building philosophy (particularly for control decks) I feel like I’ll never have enough time to explore all the avenues! Today’s Blue […]
So, a new set released and I haven’t addressed it at all. It’s not that I didn’t want to, or lack things to discuss. I was just a bit busy with a far more important project. And then with watching a Pro Tour. And then with chaos. I realize that talking about Rivals of Ixalan is […]
It’s too late to capitalize on Jace and Bloodbraid themselves in the MTGO market. But plenty of opportunities still exist to take advantage of the tumult caused by the unbannings.
Rob returns with an analysis on one of the hot lands in the market today!
Last weekend’s unbans were met with mixed reactions from the Magic community. I found myself a little conflicted, as well; I generally like shake-ups and “fresh meat,” but the back-to-back Pro Tour and GP weekends, which featured incredibly diverse metagames, had just proven Modern to be a format smack in the middle of its golden […]
Jace, the Mind Sculptor and Bloodbraid Elf have been unbanned in Modern. Adam breaks down which cards have gotten better and are in position to rise in price as a result.
With Jace and Bloodbraid freed in Modern, some major changes to the metagame are certain. Brian looks over the cards best suited for gains in the new environment.
Thanks to Wizards’ bombshell unban announcement, Modern is on the cusp of a great age of experimentation. Established and rogue archetypes alike will be examining their 75s in efforts to either combat or incorporate the format’s latest newcomers, and I fully expect some new archetypes to appear in the wake of these powerful additions to […]
