Wednesday, May 27th – Suppose that one of your opponents has just played a Black Big Nasty Creature. If you are attacked by said creature, you will take the damage and die. You have no creatures out.

In your deck is a Terminate. What do you do?

Friday, April 18th – Want to know which cards will be hot at your prerelease this weekend? Which cards should you pick up now while they are undervalued, and which should you trade away while they are overhyped? Which older card is already skyrocketing in value due to Shadowmoor? If you want to be informed at your prerelease, you must read Ben’s analysis of the Financial Value of Shadowmoor!

Craig “The Professor” Jones, fresh from smashing through the Planar Chaos Black cards in last week’s article, tackles the other color of Magic that is particularly close to his heart: Red. The color of fire, the color of frenzy, the color of fun.

Maybe the four Standard decklists he brings to the table will help us find out…

At least one faithful reader noted that my advice from last week’s column (play first!) was a big help in his going 4-0 in his Prerelease flight, much to my delight, as I also saw more established players who were coasting in to rely on their overall experience to carry the day then choose to draw first and then lose some matches.

Friday, April 24th – Hello folks, and welcome back to the column that investigates various aspects of the casual world. Today I want to discuss the Divine Vs. Demonic decks after having played with them after I got the set from my order with StarCityGames.
