Hey everyone, Kya here! Happy belated April Fools! I hope everyone enjoyed our little gag! After some recent games, I thought I would shift my focus onto a slightly different subject this week. At various points throughout your EDH experience, you might find yourself stuck in a competitive environment. I know that where I live […]

The Knowledge Pool — Admiral Beckett Brass
March 28, 2018 by
Scot Sutton 
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
March 27, 2018 by
Mason Brantley 
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. This week's entrant is one that always seemed powerful, but never received a lot of attention. I certainly never gave it much attention […]

Pure // Simple — Lose Weight, Not Games Part Two
March 19, 2018 by
Jeremy Podczerwinski 
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. Cards that when you cast them in the right situations and you’re practically guaranteed victory. This time, I’m completing the list with a few more powerful Commander spells, […]

Weird Harvest — Control Denied
February 23, 2018 by
Christopher Russell 
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 Ertai, the Corrupted. We’re going to shatter this jank commander or die trying. Ertai: Just Add Oil This […]

Uncompetitive Spirit — Closing the book
February 22, 2018 by
Robin Kaas 
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 […]
