Cashing in on Gatecrash Gatecrash Boosters finally rose above 3 tickets. I’m not sure if this price will hold, but I took advantage of the rise to cash out a few. -1 Trostani, Selesnya’s Voice -5 Gatecrash Booster +20 Tix Players are obviously drafting DGR furiously trying to get their hands on DGM cards like [...]
Life is life, and sometimes you don’t get to play cards. One of the big issues with trying to go infinite in a format where the metagame is always changing is that you have to generally do it rather quickly. Single Set Block for instance is an old standby, but it doesn’t start up again [...]
More Guidelines for Momir Basic After basically a break even week last week I decided to give it another week to see if I could get the EV in my favor. I’ll post the results, but I wanted to dive right into some other things I’ve learned after grinding about 30 games last week. These [...]
I watch a lot of Call of Duty gameplay on YouTube. For those of you who watch streams or YouTube you may only watch pro’s, or you may watch good players who aren’t quite as good as pro’s but who can identify their mistakes. I’d consider myself in the second category. I’m not a pro [...]
I’m not sure if it’s because of recent discussions or not, but two of the most searched terms on my blog are about the Momir Basic format. Despite WotC halving the number of daily events, the format is rather popular and I find myself playing it a lot more than when I was first introduced [...]
As I’m not actively grinding PTQ’s this season I made a decision to sell the ZEN Fetchlands I’ve been hanging onto arbitrarily. I wasn’t sure if I was going to share this or not, but based on this graph, I think those of you who have subscribed would like to know. I got just over [...]
Does anyone ever feel like this guy? There are a lot of reasons you can lose a game of magic. Sometimes you get outplayed. Sometimes your opponents deck is designed to exploit the weaknesses of your deck and you get a bad match-up. Sometimes you get mana screwed. All of these factors are a part [...]
Updates to Going Infinite I have been working on two projects to enhance this blog. The first is to get some games recorded. I thought I finally had my recorder working so I jumped in a M13 Release Draft and recorded it. Unfortunately the playback was shaking so hard it was impossible to render. I [...]
I started this week (March 1) with a few trades: -4 Garruk, Primal Hunter -3 Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon -3 Inkmoth Nexus +3 ISD Booster +3 DKA Booster +47 Tickets The packs actually were a mistake. I was attempting to get into a DKA release sealed event but packs are not an entry option. You [...]
Last week I promised to show you a Pauper deck that I built for 0.93 tickets. I really got excited when I realized how cheap this deck is because there are so many new players getting started online and they don’t really want to spend a ton of money without knowing the client. This deck [...]
