The Artificer Who Stole My Heart Hi everyone! Welcome back to The Knowledge Pool! This week I'll be writing about a commander that I've been itching to talk about since her release: Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain. In fact, I would go so far as to say that Jhoira is my favorite new commander of 2018, making […]

An Artificial Apprenticeship Alright, my beloved readers, it is time to return to this year's Commander product and shining the spotlight on those Replacement Commanders, the legendary cards that were the right colors to be in the command zone, but found the deck's directions to not be as supportive for their abilities as the face […]

Joseph Schultz 
Back to the Future, Forward to the Past Our trip through the Dominaria preview season has been topsy-turvy, wibbly-wobbly, and of course, timey-wimey. From Muldrotha, the Gravetide to Firesong and Sunspeaker, this legendary plane has more legendary creatures than we’ve seen in a long time. Still, one of them stands out from all the rest, […]

Ultra Budget Brews — Kurkesh, Onakke Ancient

Andrew Cummings 
Hello, and welcome back to another edition of Ultra Budget Brews, the article series that (fondly) remembers when fast food places had actual dollar menus instead of 'value menus'. You aren't fooling anyone with that nonsense. Also, tangentially related, this is the article series that builds entire EDH decks that contain no cards that cost […]

Commander Showdown — Kess vs Dralnu
October 18, 2017 by
Joseph Schultz
Flashback Attack Almost exactly eleven years ago, the Time Spiral set was released, shaking the world in ways players never expected. 'Timeshifted' cards like Lord of Atlantis and The Rack brought the past into the present as temporal rifts threatened to destroy the beloved plane of Dominaria (which we'll return to next year.) If you'd like […]
