**Worth Reading: “Andrew Jackson Highlander” series on EDHREC, by Brody Mikel. I mentioned this series of Reddit posts on the show, but now Brody’s been picked up by EDHREC and I’m really excited to read his work. If you like budget brews, you need to give this a read. The first article is on Skullbriar, the Walking Grave and it’s superdope.
Keep up with the conversation on Facebook & Twitter.
Community
“Whatever happened to X former staple?”: Sensei’s Divining Top
(I was thinking about this as a new community segment; plus, it gels nicely with this timeframe, as this marks the time in which I first remember seeing less and less of SDT, despite getting a reprint in June 2016 Eternal Masters)
Strategy
25 years of M:tG strategy:
Planeswalkers in EDH. What role does this card type play in a multiplayer context and how have they affected the game?
Top 100 Planeswalkers in EDHREC
Take for granted:
- Not as good in multiplayer as they are in 1v1
- Garner more hate than they deserve (usually)
- Ultimate abilities are strictly for Magical Xmas Land
How to run a “Superfriends” deck.
Technology:
