From The Vault: Tabletop as Brain Food
I’m working on some board game write-ups and reviews, and it’s worth remembering why board games are an awesome way to spend our time. I’ve put myself on a path to improve my physical well-being. Being more mindful of what and how much I eat, walking with the intent to start running, looking into a… Continue reading From The Vault: Tabletop as Brain Food
Making Magic More Metal
It’s been a few months since I’ve even considered looking for more than a few minutes at truly competitive gameplay. There’s been a lot going on, and I haven’t really taken the time to consider how that could be helpful to me. Things like constructing a deck in Magic and building efficiently in a RTS… Continue reading Making Magic More Metal

Specifically, I’m curious about a number of the decks in the format. I saw quite a few at the event, running all sorts of strategies from naked flat-out… Continue reading Building a Legacy
Limited Magic: BREW It Up
Art by Zoltan Boros & Gabor Szikszai I’ve written a great deal about Constructed play in Magic: the Gathering, but it isn’t the only format out there. While everything from Standard to Commander falls under the Constructed umbrella, there are other ways to play the game that don’t involve spending a great deal of time… Continue reading Limited Magic: BREW It Up
The Legacy of Magic
Art by Greg Staples I’ve been playing Magic: the Gathering off and on since I was introduced to it in high school almost 20 years ago. Quite a few things have changed in the game since then, but nothing in the game has changed so dramatically that the old cards are strictly unplayable. In fact,… Continue reading The Legacy of Magic
