Let the Hunger (Tide) Games Begin

Rodrigo Martin | 2021-10-12

Modern is a vibrant format where the metagame constantly keeps evolving. While the Jund combination has traditionally supplied a generic midrange strategy, today we look at a different shell. It revolves around sacrificing your own creatures to Goblin Bombardment and Grist, master of the Hunger (Tide) Games!

The Redemption Arc of Modern Affinity

Marin Magda | 2021-10-06

Most Modern decks only die once, never to return, but such is not the fate of "classic" Affinity. One of longest-surviving Modern decks flat out died after the ban of Mox Opal, one of the format's strongest artifacts. Modern Horizons 2 managed to revive the deck, and we probably all know how … or do we?

The New Face of Blue-Red in Modern: Regent, Ragavan, Rage

Filip Skórnicki | 2021-07-15

Modern has seen many flavors of blue-red decks over the years. Between Storm, Blue Moon, Delver, Phoenix, and Prowess, there's always been at least one representative of the color combination present in the format's highest tier.
