Commander 2017 — A Brief History of Vampires
August 28, 2017 by
Dana Roach 
“He thought, in fine, that the dreams of poets were the realities of life.” The first pack of Revised I ever opened contained a Sengir Vampire. At the time it was a bomb card. A 4/4 flyer for five was insane. Better hope you draw that Shivan Dragon, son. Still, the power level of the card […]

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 […]

Commander Showdown — The Scarab God vs Gisa and Geralf vs Grimgrin
July 19, 2017 by
Joseph Schultz
Triple Showdown Two months ago, I wrote a Commander Showdown about the reigning zombie tribal commanders, Gisa and Geralf and Grimgrin, Corpse-Born. Then Hour of Devastation happened, unleashing one of the coolest and most frightening commanders we've seen in a long time: The Scarab God. The zombie apocalypse never stops, nor do its commanders. We've been […]
