Phylactery Today’s word, children, is “phylactery”. A phylactery is an amulet or charm. More specifically a phylactery is that thing that your opponent uses to clean himself up after you play an indestructible 5/5 on the first turn – or at least that’s what it sounds like… Dark Ritual will help to ensure that Phylactery…
Playing casual is a lifestyle. As a casual player, you think less about sideboards and more about Fatties. You spend less time following the big decks from last week’s Grand Prix, and more time innovating combos that will rock your playgroup.

Cards like Porcelain Legionnaire Porcelain Legionnaire and T-t-t-Thundering Tanadon Thundering Tanadon (inside joke, but I hope everyone else feels as silly as I do saying…
There are many cards in Magic: The Gathering that are equivalents of cards that were printed in earlier sets or editions. These are typically called “functional reprints”, but I think that term falls short on account of the small (but significant) differences between the variations. There is also a long list of cards that are…
Scooping has become a recent and disappointing trend in competitive Magic. For those of you who have been watching coverage of PTQ events, know how disappointing it is to sit down excited to watch a Pro do what they do best, only to have them scoop the moment Jace TMS hits the board. Despite my…
