Knowing the Rules
Posted On 06/04/2008 19:21:33 by the_deck_tech
I’d like for everyone here to take a quick second to mourn the death of my psyche. As many of you have probably noticed, the Regionals Blog Contest is over.  It only makes mewonder if anyone else has appreciated the irony behind RBC as much as I have.  Of course, it was mostly my fault it was so ironic.  Let mere count a short story to you: I head to my favorite Magic: the Gathering website and notice that they are holding a writing contest.  I think to myself, “Great!  I’m a decent...

Rogue Deck for Regionals: Mono Blue Plumeveil Control
Posted On 05/27/2008 19:46:58 by DeeBarizo


I saw this decklist over at another Magic strategy site. It looks pretty good especially the Platinum Angel. Many decks will have a hard time destroying it. You have counters to protect it and Academy Ruins to replay it. And Plumeveil surprises most people. It's cheap and can block most of the creatures in the format.

Preparing for Regionals with Pro Tour Hollywood in Mind
Posted On 05/26/2008 14:11:56 by DeeBarizo
Now that Pro Tour Hollywood is over, many players will be scouring magicthegathering.com for the decklists of the pros. Pro Tours have defined regionals in the past and Hollywood will be no different.

What can we learn from Hollywood's results? How will Hollywood affect the regionals metagame?

Regionals Standard Metagame

One word: diverse.

The standard metagame post-Hollywood looks to be wide open. One pro commented that he played against eight different decks on... Read More

Getting ready for regionals: Fish for Dinner
Posted On 05/23/2008 12:19:19 by Destroyer51
Hi again all. Time for a standard article! With regionals coming up, I have played a couple times in the past week. On Monday, I played Faeries. Now, I decided to try an experiment. I took out 4 Ancestral Visions for 3 maindeck Thoughtseize and something else I can't remember, just to give it a try after looking at some lists. Do not do what I did! My deck actually hated me when I did this, losing my first 3 rounds and winning the last 2 to recover some rating points. Just. Don't. Do. It.&n... Read More

Strong Statements 5/20-Fairie Freakout
Posted On 05/20/2008 15:37:03 by mtglordtom24
Alright, since everyone with a deck in standard is either playing Fairies or worrying about the dominance that is Fairies, or they live under a rock. Pro Tour Hollywood is this weekend and, though I won’t be going, Fairies will be, en masse. I will predict that either Fairies or a deck running 3-4 Cloudthreshers between the main deck and sideboard will win. Not as bold a claim as it would appear, since Fairies was a house at the Star City 5k and 2k Opens and Cloudthresher is the best card agai... Read More
