Gonti, the Thief in Chief, Rides Again!

Outlaws of Thunder Junction is here, and while I paid attention to Ghired two weeks ago, I want to look at the most popular commander from the set so far: Gonti, Canny Acquisitor! Original Gonti is a great time, allowing you the fun of stealing cards from someone else’s deck. The new version adds two ..read more

The Mana Math for Outlaws of Thunder Junction (and its subsets)

Outlaws of Thunder Junction is here, and good golly, this is complicated as hell.  It’s well-known by now that one special set of 30 cards was supposed to be an Aftermath-style set, but instead, they mashed that set into OTJ itself and now we have THIRTEEN special styles all present in one set of Collector ..read more

Will Assassin’s Creed be Dr. Who or Fallout?

We’ve had a lot of Universes Beyond products in the last year or so, and two of them have been spectacular and one has been middling. Fallout is immediately on a rocketship, with Mr. House causing all sorts of ancillary spikes. (Which I predicted in October.) Lord of the Rings, with summer and holiday editions ..read more

Checking Back In On New Commanders

I’ve made a conscious effort in the last two years to put my speculative purchases on a timeline. With the frequency of reprints, it’s pretty rare for me to say ‘this is a staple, I want to buy it while it’s cheap’ because repeated reprints are an occupational hazard now. Instead, I want to refine ..read more

Every set, we’re given a breakdown of how likely you are to open the cards you want. Sometimes we get detailed percentages, sometimes we get generalized information. Either way, I’m happy to break down the numbers and tell you how likely you are to get the card you want.  Fallout occupies an interesting space, in ..read more

Planning Potential Purchases of Pro Tour Previews

There was a lot of information  dumped on us this week, and some of it is more immediate than others, but my first thought was ‘no Commander decks for Assassin’s Creed? People have to build a deck from scratch?!’ and that means loads of things worth considering adding to your spec boxes. My second thought ..read more

A Brief History of Serialized Cards

While Fallout previews are going on in full force, I can’t help but be underwhelmed by the choice to make the bobbleheads the serialized cards for this set. We’ve got a wide range of legends to choose from in here, and I think this was a miss. I got to thinking about what the prices ..read more

Murders at Karlov Manor is out, and that means we’re seeing all kinds of things go down in price, and surprisingly, we’ve got some cards heading upwards. We often see one or two cards go up, but there’s multiple factors at play here that lead to the spikes involved. Those spikes will be addressed today ..read more

Murders at Karlov Manor, by the numbers

The set is finally legal for singles sales, after being revealed seemingly five weeks ago. There’s been a whole lot of pre-ordering going on, which is something not every TCG vendor can do or wants to do. The majority of sales on there are due to individuals, not big cracking operations. So this weekend, we’re ..read more

New set, same issues. They give us percentages and counts and then it’s up to us to figure things out for what exactly that means. Luckily, I’ve got years of practice in doing exactly that. We’ve got a new type of booster to talk about, we’ve got The List, Special Guests, and more serialized cards ..read more
