When UW is not Available
Posted On 05/20/2008 20:16:17 by Losrithtilenma
Every shadowmoor draft I go into I am looking to draft UW.  I am very pleased by the evasion and tricks available in those colors.  Unfortunately I think the players in my area have caught on to the fact that UW is probably the best color combination available.  I feel that GR is also a fine color combo though.  Let's take a look at my first 5 picks to see what was going down in this last draft.1. Tattermunge Duo2. Safehold Elite3. Curse of Chains4. Safehold Elite5. Somnomanc... Read More

Breaking the Meta LRW Block Contructed
Posted On 05/16/2008 10:40:20 by mikeg542

Well I’m back sooner then expected, and I can just hear you all cheering now. Sarcasm aside, further testing and meta-delving done by my testing compatriots and myself have revealed a few powerful decks that currently have good match-ups against the field. The main decks that seem to be popular amoung the newly developing block crowd are Ub Faeries (obviously), Rx Aggro decks with Tattermunge Maniac and Flame Javelin, G(W/R)x mana ramp decks trying to play off the success of its standard c...

A Shadowmoor 8-man
Posted On 05/13/2008 00:04:43 by Losrithtilenma
Tonight the Monday night draft only had 8 people show up, but it was still going to be a fairly competitive event.  There are times when it is clear what you should be drafting and how to build your deck.  This is not one of those times.  I am not convinced I built it correctly. Draft PoolArmored Ascension

Breaking (or Making!) the Lorwyn Block Metagame
Posted On 05/12/2008 23:13:52 by mikeg542
Introduction
It’s that time of year again, a new PTQ season coming in a little over a month with a new, untried format waiting to be delved for powerful combos, decks and archetypes. While I may not find Lorwyn/Morningtide limited very good (linear mechanics are NOT something which makes my drafting experience more enjoyable), nor do I predict shadowmoor will be any improvement (Barely any removal in a heavy creature set? If creature stalls are your thing, this is the set to play!). While t... Read More

Two Writers in One Blog on This Week's Draft!
Posted On 05/11/2008 18:58:55 by spiffykyote

With only nine posts from our major writers (aka the paid ones) here on tcgplayer in the last eleven days there has been plenty of time to focus on us bloggers. In this tight knit community we bounce around decks, opinions and draft results, and even good tips for stew. Around here, one person can peel the carrots while another one cuts them up, and yet another person prepares the meat- and that's just offline. Once you edit- I mean spice up your stew, it may be ready for everyone to gobble... Read More
