The Knowledge Pool — Admiral Beckett Brass
Welcome back to the Knowledge Pool! My last two articles focused on decks aiming to do "big" things, and have been inspired by decks I've personally built in real life. This week, I want to go in a different strategic direction, and focus on a commander that's new to me. As Dominaria spoilers begin to […]
Underdog's Corner — Tishana, Voice of Thunder
Recent-Past Reviewed Hello, everyone! Welcome back to another edition of the Underdog's Corner! As we move closer towards the release of Dominaria, I thought to look back on the last block, Ixalan.

Pure // Simple — Lose Weight, Not Games Part Two
Last time on Pure//Simple, the article series that explores the why behind the best cards in the Commander format, I went over a few “I win” buttons.

Today, on this Monday of seeing the entirety of the Master 25, we get down on some fun from the set that celebrates our beloved game throughout the years.

The Knowledge Pool — Maelstrom Wanderer Part 2
Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Knowledge Pool. Last time I wrote about the times when the decks we build don't meet our expectations, and I introduced you to my Maelstrom Wanderer deck. If you have not yet read part 1, it can be found here. At the end of my previous article, I requested […]
Weird Harvest — Control Denied
It’s that time again! Welcome back to Weird Harvest, where misfit commanders wield forgotten spells to create head scratching situations. This week we tackle a reader request from Darrenn E Canton! He asked if we could break [card]Ertai, the Corrupted[/card]. We’re going to shatter this jank commander or die trying. Ertai: Just Add Oil This […]
Uncompetitive Spirit — Closing the book
It's time to put this series to a rest. At least for now. I do have some suggestions I want to mull over and test with my own playgroup which I might cover in the future. An example is the "EDH with Planeswalkers for commanders" variant, which I personally find extremely interesting. That said, it's […]
