The Last Stand at Grand Prix Weekend

Detroit. Bologna. Melbourne. It is in these three cities that Modern players across the world will unite for a last stand against the Eldrazi apocalypse. From March 4 through March 6, all eyes in the Modern community will be fixed on the much-anticipated Grand Prix weekend. It has been one month since teams at Pro Tour […]

Returning to Innistrad: Card Evaluation Guidelines

Welcome to no-Eldrazi Monday, where I scour the Modern environment for anything to discuss that isn’t colorless and didn’t skip leg day. Just kidding: even Legacy saw its reality smashed by Eldrazi taking the top Day 2 metagame slot at the StarCityGames Philadelphia Open. I’m having Treasure Cruise flashbacks and April can’t come soon enough. […]

Non-Eldrazi Takeaways from SCG Louisville

I’m not going to sugarcoat it: the StarCityGames Louisville Classic was a total nightmare. Not the nightmare where Wizards doesn’t reprint Damnation in Eternal Masters, or where Jeff Hoogland doesn’t drop his turn one Birds of Paradise (which, to my horror, I witnessed this weekend!). This was the kind of twisted, tentically nightmare normally reserved for H.P. […]

Insider: Virtually Infinite – Hope Springs Eternal

Alexander Carl returns to QS to discuss the impact Eternal Masters will have on MTGO. This set will be a big one for market movements, so make sure you’re informed.

Metagame Report Before the Pro Tour Storm

Brace yourself: the Modern Pro Tour is coming. Between the Oath of the Gatewatch exposition, StarCityGames’ Regional blowout, and Super Bowl Sunday, I’m going to be glued to a screen for every waking weekend hour. Will Affinity, Burn, and Grishoalbrand run riot in Atlanta? Can Von MIller’s defense stuff Cam Newton’s offense on the Levi’s […]

Insider: Early Pro Tour Indicators & More Modern Movement

Chaz takes a look at the post-banning landscape in Modern using data from Magic-League, before addressing the latest round of Modern spikes.

Seeing Snakes: GRx Blood Moon, Post-OGW

The Oath of the Gatewatch spoilers are upon us, and it seems like every other day Wizards reveals a Modern hopeful. Battle for Zendikar, Oath’s universally panned predecessor, is even making waves in the format as Bx Eldrazi Processors continues to pick up steam. New decks don’t always come from new cards, though. Modern’s vast card pool […]

Three Modern New Year’s Resolutions for 2016

New Year’s resolutions are the high point of every January 1st celebration. Or maybe that’s just champagne. Or bowl game blowouts so outrageous they make Jeff Hoogland’s weekend loss to Bobby Fortanely’s Amulet Bloom look fair. Whether you prefer the booze or the club bashes to the boring promises, I’m sure you made at least […]

Insider: Three Modern Predictions for 2016

2016 promises to be a big year for Modern, and Sheridan is here with three (and a half) predictions to ring in the new year!

Deck of the Week – BW Eldrazi

Welcome to 2016! Or, should I say, welcome to the Year of the Eldrazi! Cthulhu’s brood has been assimilating the Modern masses for about a month now, starting with EternallyRamza’s inconspicuous showing in an MTGO League on November 30 and culminating in Matthew Dilks’ 10th place run at the recent StarCityGames Open in Cincinnati. Every online Modern […]
