Un-Mander Showdown — Lazav vs Phoebe

Shifting Shape As of two days ago, January 15th, Un-Mander is officially over. The Unstable season has ended, and silver-bordered cards are no longer legal in EDH. Some players are happy about this, some are sad, most probably don't care one way or the other, but it is definitely over. So why, you ask, am […]

Combo Corner — Infinity Golem

Unstable introduced some really interesting concepts to the game of Magic: the Gathering, some of which are probably straight busted when built around properly. I'm specifically thinking of Rules Lawyer. The only problem is that the people who would want to build a deck around Rules Lawyer are people who already know how he works […]

Un-Mander Showdown — X vs Sen Triplets

X Gon' Give it to Ya Un-mander is here for only a few more weeks, but before the format goes back to normal, we need to have at least one more silver-bordered Showdown. Unstable gave us a commander that easily wins the Most-Difficult-Card-To-Search-By-Name award: X. This sneaky Inspector Gadget spoof infiltrates an opponent's hand and plays […]

Un-mander Showdown — Grusilda vs The Mimeoplasm

The Monster Mash Silver-bordered commanders are here for just a few short weeks, and while Un-mander isn't usually my thing, there's one legendary creature from Unstable who hits so close to home that I absolutely must write about her. I'm lucky to have many commander decks. Most are budget, several are just experiments, but there's […]

Low Market — A Great Un-dertaking

Grusilda, Monster Masher art by Mathias Kollros Here on Low Market, we've only just started playing with Unstable, and we're already having an un-credible time with it; so much so that we're coming back around with another silver-bordered commander. This time, though, we're building for flexibility, with a deck capable of using a silver-bordered commander (Grusilda, […]

60 to 100 — Ramos the Un-Dragon

Well, hello everyone! This week we're going on a wild and crazy adventure, where no man has gone before. Or woman. Or...anyone really. Except for Nate Burgess, but that's only because he's better at writing articles than I am. Where is this place you ask? This place is scary to some, exciting for others and […]

Commander UNFocus — Baron Von Count

Okay FINE. Yeah. We'll look at Unstable commanders. Sometimes a new legendary creature comes out that values other cards in a new way, making cards that were previously useless suddenly amazing in the right EDH deck. The last time I wrote about this sort of thing was with Mairsil, the Pretender and a fresh look […]

News Update — Silver-Bordered Cards Legal Until January 15th

Unbelievable Yes, you read the title correctly. No, this is not a joke. In fact, here at EDHREC we were actually thinking about doing an "Un-cards are legal!" prank for the next April Fools. Turns out the Rules Committee beat us to it and legalized silver-bordered cards in Commander until January 15th. I'll repeat that […]
