Christmas Fiction: The Great Gift Tree
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone!
It’s become a bit of a tradition around here for Brandon Scott to write a Christmas tale. And this year, he’s been hard at work making sure it’s another good one.
Mythic-Level Elves: A Standard Deck Tech
I said in my recent Foundations article that elves were really strong—and I proved my statement. I got Mythic with a standard white-green elves list. And, since it is the holidays, I figured it only made sense to pass on the gift of a strong deck.
Friday Fiction: Snowfall In The Living Room
The holiday season is so strong in the air now. I feel it. And, apparently, so does our resident author, Brandon Scott. This time, we’re getting a short, cozy fantasy story set around Christmas time.
It Came From The Archives “Doctor Who Special Reviews: The Church on Ruby Road”
The Church on Ruby Road marks the beginning of Ncuti Gatwa’s tenure as the Doctor, and while the episode was a mixed bag, Ncuti did such a good job.
Review: Lucky Girl, How I Became A Horror Writer by M. Rickert
Lucky Girl, How I Became A Horror Writer (I’m shortening that to Lucky Girl) is a story that purports to be about Krampus. It’s not really. Its genre is horror—but it’s almost never scary. And the tagline about a person becoming a horror writer is a portal to so many other issues I’ll rant about later.
Friday Fiction: Frozen Army
It’s the future. But not a nice one. An army of indestructible machines simply called “The Marching” have done serious damage to the planet, destroying so much in their wake.
Foundations: The 5 Best Artifact Cards
In most sets, most of the artifacts aren’t usually that impressive—but Foundations is different. There are quite a few good ones. Five, in fact, that I think are so good they’ll especially stand the test of time.
Foundations: The 5 Best Multicolored Cards
Foundations actually has a lot of multicolored cards—including some legendary creature reprints that I think have interesting implications for standard. But in regard to the top five cards I think will see a lot of play through Foundations’ lifetime, most of the ones I picked are low-cost, helpful cards with a strong impact on the board.
Friday Fiction: The Life of a Four-Man
Time for a weird sci-fi concept! This time, we’re checking in on the very first Four-Man. Being a Four-Man comes with a power, but also some difficulties.
Transformers One: A Baffling Movie
Let’s make something clear about my reviewing Transformers One: I have no horses in this race. Transformers is not my fandom. I have no notable history with it. I am aware of it through other people talking about it, but that’s about it. So, I can speak on it without nostalgia, without a sense of fan betrayal for whatever aspect they changed. I am not objective—this is a critical media review—but I’m judging it as a standalone movie.
Foundations: The 5 Best Green Cards
The Green Foundations Cards Have Clear Themes There’s a version of this Foundations list that is just green elf cards. The synergy and power level are fairly high there. But sometimes you don’t want to play a deck based around one creature type—and, as I outlined in the very first article of this “series,” this…
Friday Fiction: Dungeon Sales Force
We have a new subgenre today! For—if my memory is correct—this is the first LITRPG-style story we’ve ever featured on the site. It’s not exactly a LITRPG; it more just explores one part of such a world, but the similarities are there.
