In today’s Deep Analysis, Richard Feldman offers the opinion that the building itself if not the tricky part; it’s knowing when to walk away that’s the true key to success… |

In preparation for his first Extended PTQ of the season, Kyle Sanchez believes he’s broken the pre-Morningtide metagame.

 Sullivan Library - Driving a Prius in Extendedby Adrian Sullivan Published on 2008-01-22 A StarCityGames.com Premium Extended article |
At first glance, it’s easy to spot the chase cards in Morningtide. There’s Mutavault, for example. And Murmuring Bosk. Another card that is warranting a lot of attention is the three mana beatstick Countryside Crusher. Today’s Sullivan Library sees Adrian examine some of the uses that this particular monster may have. Could he actually be… better than Tarmogoyf?! |

| Deep Analysis - Capitalizing on a Lack of Playtesting by Richard Feldman Published on 2008-01-17 A StarCityGames.com Premium Extended article |
|
Playtesting in the current Extended metagame is a nightmare task. You sleeve your seventy-five select, and then face ten, twenty, thirty possible gauntlet decks with pedigree and power. It’s so difficult to cover all the bases that the sane player concentrates on those decks he feels likely to make up the upper tier of the field. Today’s Deep Analysis posits the idea that, in order to pick up valuable percentages, it may be wise to run with once-popular fringe strategies. After all, not many folk will have tested the matchup… |
