Eldritch Moon previews start in earnest today, but last week brought five early spoilers to get us excited. Sheridan evaluates them for Modern today.

Sorry, Team #MaritLage and Eldrazi haters. Innistrad’s got a new “guardian,” and Lady Sprankle’s going to have a tougher job pulling off the prerelease cosplay this time. Eldritch Moon previews get their formal kickoff next Monday, but Emrakul had to make her promised appearance early just in case the suspense was still killing you. Of all […]

Eldritch Moon previews start today, but before we know a single card Sheridan is here to point out some hot spec targets.

In between acing some online leagues with Ad Nauseam and running into back-to-back Infect rounds in others, I’ve been watching and playing more Legacy than usual. Last weekend’s Grand Prix Prague and Columbus led to such an uptick in Legacy coverage that I couldn’t help it. How else am I supposed to get value out […]

Despite being geared mainly at the Legacy crowd, Eternal Masters has some decent cards to offer Modern. Sheridan breaks them down.

I’ve always been more of a paper player than an online one, but that changed a few weeks ago when I bought myself an MTGO deck as an early birthday present. Can you guess my purchase? Hint: if you’ve seen “ktkenshinx” around the tournament practice tables, chances are you’ve been eating Lightning Storms with Pact […]

Big decks can come with big price-tags, but Sheridan has scoped out five underpriced Modern staples to get fast.

Grand Prix weekend may be over, but with few major Modern events between now and the next GP bonanza, players will need to look to Charlotte and Los Angeles for the most recent Modern home-runs. And what a weekend of home-runs we got to enjoy! Between Jeskai Control solidifying Tier 1 status, Affinity making its inevitable […]

Moving into the Modern off-season, Sheridan explores the Taking Turns deck as a hot strategic and financial investment.

On Sunday afternoon, my darling Ad Nauseam won Grand Prix Charlotte. Hours later, David’s Merfolk won Grand Prix Los Angeles. Although neither of us could make it to those tournaments, it’s exciting to see our babies graduating to the Grand Prix spotlight they’ve long deserved, although at least David already got to enjoy it last […]

Grand Prix Weekend is in the books. Sheridan picks through top lists for neat Modern technology and promising specs in the aftermath.

So. Much. Modern. I can barely update the Top Decks spreadsheet fast enough to keep pace! Since May 1st, we’ve had two Star City Games Opens, over 55 events from the SCG States and Provincial Championships, another batch of 50+ events from TCGplayer’s State circuit, and dozens of online and paper tournaments in between. The […]

Nahiri, the Harbinger has been making waves across several archetypes in Modern. Sheridan is here to explain why the hype is totally justified.
