Picture in your mind an elf that taps for mana. These are colloquially known as "mana dorks". Given that descriptor, you can probably extrapolate some ideas about this type of character. Do those ideas include decent power and toughness, haste, and an urge to charge into combat? [card]Grand Warlord Radha[/card] is in fact an elf, […]

Currently, there are 24,011 decks in the EDHREC database running [card]Explosive Vegetation[/card] and not a single one of them should have it as part of the 99. Welcome back to In the Margins, a periodic column where I say that 24,000+ decks are doing it wrong, because if there's one thing I've learned about people on […]

Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Knowledge Pool. This week we will be doing a continuation of our series on Kydele & Thrasios as commanders of a UG combo style deck. If you have not yet read Part 1, I strongly encourage that you do so. Part 1 can be found here. Efficient Evolution Last […]

Greetings Planeswalkers and Gatherers alike, my name is Christian Alexander, and welcome to the Scrambleverse! I played my first game of Magic right before Theros came out, attended a draft a couple weeks later, bought 2,000 cards with my friend Eric from some random guy on Craigslist, and never looked back.

During each of your turns, you may play up to one permanent card of each permanent type from your graveyard. Oh my... Your Graveyard and You For Muldrotha, the graveyard is a […]

Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Knowledge Pool! This week we're going to be looking at another deck I've personally built and remodeling it with the hope of reaching a more coherent deck list. I was quite happy with how our experiment turned out with [card]Maelstrom Wanderer[/card], and I think the deck I'm presenting today […]

Oh, hello there! My name is Seth Cross, and a few months ago I finished my first and only series for EDHREC.com, “Replacement Commanders”. The series went over each of the two alternate legendary creatures from the four Commander 2017 decks in some fun and crazy ways. For the eighth article, I announced that I […]

Counters, Tokens, and Combos When people think of Commander cards, there are often a few EDH-specific cards that come to mind. [card]Sol Ring[/card], for example, or [card]Cyclonic Rift[/card]. One of the biggest is [card]Doubling Season[/card], a card whose price is exorbitantly high and whose demand comes almost exclusively from Commander players. While it's true that […]

The dawn of a new format has arrived, and we don’t yet have the tools to solve it. With EDHREC supporting Brawl with full functionality there was a need to create articles that sift through the information. Understanding a format takes time. The announcement was less than a week ago as I write this article. […]

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.
