April 25th - Post NPH Eva Green

Eva Green is a deck that has fallen out of favor over time, but I think the existence of Mental Misstep will give people a reason to play Suicide Black with Green again.

NPH - Let's talk Legacy

I've got to preface this entire review talking about Phyrexian mana in general; this is a game of resources.  This brings me back to a Vince Lombardi speech of, "This is a football."  When we're handling a new concept, it doesn't hurt to remember the basics of how and why we use certain cards in Legacy.

April 8th - Legacy UGB Tempo

This was intended for yesterday, but we got offset a day.

Anyone following Starcity Eternal articles has probably seen the UGB list championed by Brian Demars.  If you haven't - it's a Dark Confidant deck that has hand disruption, a lot of soft counters, and tempo spells.  Recently, at an Invitational Qualifier, this deck popped up, asking the question "Is it safe to play Dreadnought again?"

April 7th - Japanese Bant

Apologies to everyone who was expecting a Daily Deck yesterday, but schoolwork kept me too busy. To make up for it, I'm going to take a look at one of the more interesting competitive Extended decks just in time for the PTQ on the 9th.

April 5th - Zenith Zoo

On Tuesdays, I'm intending on telling people what I will be playing for weekly Legacy, and how I got to the deck.  Here's another take on Zoo, if you're not sick of it already.
