Stealing Things is Fun Rivals of Ixalan unleashed a cycle of new dinosaurs into EDH, from the enormous Ghalta, Primal Hunger to the terrifying Tetzimoc, Primal Death. However, one dino can still be heard above the rest: Etali, Primal Storm, the spinosaurus that bellows so loudly it shakes the top card of everyone's library loose. […]

Commander Showdown — Kumena vs Sygg

Joseph Schultz
Under the Sea Commander Showdown is back! We had a brief bout of Un-Mander articles during the Unstable season, but now we're back to black-bordered Magic, so it's Rivals of Ixalan time! I won't waste time with preamble—these fishy friends were the most-requested matchup for this week's Showdown. You know who they are: Kumena, Tyrant of Orazca […]

Un-Mander Showdown — Lazav vs Phoebe
January 17, 2018 by
Joseph Schultz
Shifting Shape As of two days ago, January 15th, Un-Mander is officially over. The Unstable season has ended, and silver-bordered cards are no longer legal in EDH. Some players are happy about this, some are sad, most probably don't care one way or the other, but it is definitely over. So why, you ask, am […]

Un-Mander Showdown — X vs Sen Triplets
January 3, 2018 by
Joseph Schultz
X Gon' Give it to Ya Un-mander is here for only a few more weeks, but before the format goes back to normal, we need to have at least one more silver-bordered Showdown. Unstable gave us a commander that easily wins the Most-Difficult-Card-To-Search-By-Name award: X. This sneaky Inspector Gadget spoof infiltrates an opponent's hand and plays […]

Un-mander Showdown — Grusilda vs The Mimeoplasm
December 20, 2017 by
Joseph Schultz
The Monster Mash Silver-bordered commanders are here for just a few short weeks, and while Un-mander isn't usually my thing, there's one legendary creature from Unstable who hits so close to home that I absolutely must write about her. I'm lucky to have many commander decks. Most are budget, several are just experiments, but there's […]

Commander Showdown — Vona vs Ayli vs Karlov
December 6, 2017 by
Joseph Schultz
Triple Showdown Back in June, I wrote Commander Showdown — Ayli vs Karlov, tackling the two lifegain-based Orzhov commanders, Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim and Karlov of the Ghost Council. Then Ixalan happened, throwing a new black-white lifegain commander into the mix. By now you're probably already familiar with her: it's Vona, Butcher of Magan. Yes, once again, […]

News Update — Silver-Bordered Cards Legal Until January 15th
December 1, 2017 by
Joseph Schultz
Unbelievable Yes, you read the title correctly. No, this is not a joke. In fact, here at EDHREC we were actually thinking about doing an "Un-cards are legal!" prank for the next April Fools. Turns out the Rules Committee beat us to it and legalized silver-bordered cards in Commander until January 15th. I'll repeat that […]

Budget Showdown Watch out world, because EDHREC has a brand-new feature in town. You may remember when we unveiled our new Theme Selection tool back in September. For those who don't remember, it's the thing to the right of the pie chart that looks like this: That's the Theme Selection tool for The Scarab God. Using […]
