Adventures In The Forgotten Realms: 7 First Impressions (Part 2)
And that’s my take on Adventures in The Forgotten Realms. I think it’s cool how much work went into making sure the feel of D&D went into the cards.

Adventures In The Forgotten Realms: 7 First Impressions (Part 1)
Adventures in The Forgotten Realms dropped a few days ago. So, today, I’m going to cover my 7 early impressions of the set, and a few standout cards for Standard and Historic.
Mythic Deck Tech: Izzet Phoenix (56% Winrate): Part 2
Ready to see why I picked the cards I did for this Mythic rank deck? Well, let’s go!
Mythic Deck Tech: Izzet Phoenix (56% Winrate): Part 1
Any time I make Mythic, I want to share with you the deck that got me there. This time, however, it’ll double as a deck tech for how to play one of the most powerful and well-known decks in Bof1 Historic.
The Problem With The Mystical Archive Cards
Introducing the Mystical Archive cards to Historic has led to a lot of new decks, new strategies, and even some revivals of old options like Arclight Phoenix. I think no one would argue against them being a cool idea.
Strixhaven: 5 First Impression
Another Magic set comes out, and the meta is upset again. So, as I always try to do, I’ll give my first impressions/predictions for what this set will mean for Standard and Historic.
Mythic Deck Tech: Genesis Midrange (60% Winrate): Part 2
Genesis Midrange rewards understanding when you can ignore your opponent’s attackers and go for the ramp win and when you need to stall.
Mythic Deck Tech: Genesis Midrange (60% Winrate): Part 1
This deck can easily and routinely jump ahead two turns at a time in mana advantage and cast something big before they can respond to it.
Kaldheim: 6 First Impressions
As I tend to do when a new set comes out, I wanted to give my first impressions of Kaldheim. I wanted to cover what I think might happen with it in Standard and Historic (the two modes I play the most.)
A Defense of Magic: The Gathering’s F.I.R.E. Philosophy
And, as a happy and average player, I want to describe the appeal of the F.I.R.E. (“fun,” “inviting,” “replayable,” and “exciting”) philosophy.
Standard Is Good Again, I Swear
The current standard is one of the most balanced we’ve had in a while. It took a ton of bannings, a lot of failed experiments, but WOTC has gotten it to a good place.
How Zendikar Rising Changed Magic
Zendikar Rising snuck up too fast to cover the set before it came out, and I don’t draft enough to have a good sense of the whole card pool. But there is one aspect of the new set I think needs to be discussed.
