The Deck is changing thanks to the new Onslaught fetchlands... And now that an entire color has gone the way of the dodo, can Vampiric... Read more

I do not own a real set of the Power 9, but I do own an Arabian Nights' Library of Alexandria and a near-complete set of the Collector's Edition Power Nine (missing only Timetwister)... And whoa! It sucks to have real and very good cards you can't use in tournaments. Read more

John says that one of the best matchups he encounters when playing his new TurboHaups deck is Oath - which he claims a whopping 72% record against. After Apprenticing... Read more

Right now, YMG is focussed on Standard for the Masters and Draft for the Pro Tour - but I had an idea for an Extended deck, and... Read more

If a Chill is in play, does it have any affect on the cost of morphing a Blistering Firecat? My instinct tells me no, since the card comes into play colorless and morph is not a spell cost. Read more

So I started playing around with trying to move popular OBC decks to Extended. Wonder Dog (U/G Madness) and Mono-Black Control easily made the jump from Odyssey... Read more

I will start off by congratulating Ben Dempsey on a very well-written article refuting my claims on TurboHaups. He is a much better writer than I am. However, I am a much... Read more

If you read this column frequently - and everyone involved hopes that you do - you know that I like to build and play my own decks. Sometimes the deck is a serious... Read more

It's time to look at the key components to building what many will call a Rogue deck - but you should realize that it is not a Rogue deck that you are building. You are... Read more

Watch as Nick goes through a draft, showing you the cards and his draft picks. Once again, Nick opened some ridiculous bombs - but the choices between bombs... Read more

As a math teacher, I like to start each problem off with the requirements or constraints. It seems like an Extended rogue deck needs early disruption and/or creature kill (preferably both) and to have decent matchups with Oath, Reanimator (B and U/B) and Sligh. And the card that... Read more

Fire-Marshal Bill is a new Extended deck that uses a basic Goblin Sligh build with the addition of Skirk Fire Marshal for a quick kill through a large blast of damage,... Read more

I decided to take The Rock, since I top 8'ed with it in the one PTQ I was able to make last year. I started with Darwin Kastle's deck from PT: Houston, and made some... Read more

Back in the day, Sligh was the deck to beat - and it needs to be the one to beat again. I want to recreate that power. Differently. Walk with me as I playtest my experimental Sligh Overrun deck against the top decks in the field! (And yet another deck using Skirk Fire Marshall -... Read more

So originally, I was going to write this really cool article on"How terrible is Onslaught-only sealed is"... But after a really cool start, I began to run into trouble, and I couldn't figure out why. Then it dawned on me: I was just whining about how terrible my sealed deck was at... Read more

The Ferrett's editorial comment that says Wizards couldn't forbid the use of these inserts in the current standard environment is misguided at best. Of course they could... Read more
