Mind Bend - Naya Extra Turns
November 7, 2018 by
Jeremy Podczerwinski 
Time After Time “The world, I’ve come to realize, is a blank canvas on which to paint.” —Ixidor, reality sculptor Commander is the best Magic: The Gathering format for expression.

Andrew Cummings
Hello and welcome back to another edition of Ultra Budget...wait a second. I feel something. Do you feel it too? It feels as if a great weight has been lifted. As if my hands that have been ceaselessly shackled are now free. As if...I am no longer restricted by a budget. Also, as if a […]
