Politics wouldn’t be the same without lying. There is a precedent for it. Lying as part of any political system exists simply because there are clear advantages to doing so. A politician can get caught lying and still come out ahead. The fact that information is out there is more important than if it was […]

NEWS — New EDHREC Feature! Themes!
September 10, 2017 by
Christopher Russell 
A message from Don, the founder of EDHREC: In this article, Chris is going to go through our new features on EDHREC that revolve around "themes"! I'm really excited about it because there are so many fun hidden archetypes and this should make it easier to find them. Tribes were our first theme and those were […]

Quinn Miller 
Overwhelming Splendor art by Richard Wright Darn You to Heck When the two suns of Amonkhet were naught but distant lights on the horizon, we knew to expect two things: top-down Egyptian themes, and top-down Nicol Bolas themes. What I did not expect was a smattering of curses, which (save for Wheel of Sun and […]

Something's Brewin' At one point in building an EDH deck, you have to stop and think about how to kill your opponents. Sometimes it's with your big angry commander (see: Rafiq of the Many). Sometimes, it's with your big angry Fireball (see: Mizzix of the Izmagnus). Sometimes, it's with your big angry horde of tokens (see: Rhys the […]

Partner Focus — Silas Renn, Seeker Adept
March 7, 2017 by
Nate Burgess 
Silas Renn, Seeker Adept combines the sneering punchable face of Martin Shkreli with the haughty annoyance of C3P0's body. He's a fun guy at parties. But enough about the card art. He's a 2/2 with Deathtouch. If he does combat damage to a player, you can cast a dead artifact from your graveyard. You still have […]
