After receiving such a shock to our collective systems, we had no choice but to attempt to find our next move. Sure, working with devils is probably bad, but this Bahamut crew also seems not so great. Maybe in this situation we are following “the enemy and my enemy is friend” but with the added …

Welcome back to Magic Gatherings! Last time we talked about the results of Pro Tour Battle for Zendikar, as well as the costs of Standard and some tips for budget deckbuilding.

Sure, things seemed awfully grim, but there has to be some arcane magics or divine assistance that we could harness. What is Geodude up to? That guy …

I wrote a bit about the requirements and spotlighted the new decks from the first major tournament that used Battle for Zendikar cards.
