Burning Inquiry — Taking a Break from Magic
August 8, 2017 by
Eric Walter 
We've all been there. At some point this game which once inspired such lustful joy becomes a frustrating grind.

Joseph Schultz 
Let Me Tell You a Story Some time ago, I sat down for a game with my favorite deck, The Gitrog Monster. A short while into this game, I assembled a small army with an Avenger of Zendikar. An opponent wiped the board. I dropped a Rampaging Baloths and began to recreate the army, but […]

The steam engine broke society. It brought the world into the modern era. Industrialization, creating every modern amenity, would not have been possible without it. After the initial design by James Watt there were countless improvements, but there have been no developments with as large of an impact on the world since. When the previews […]

What I did not expect was a smattering of curses, which (save for Wheel of Sun and […]
