It’s that time again! Welcome back to Weird Harvest, where misfit commanders wield forgotten spells to create head scratching situations. This week we tackle a reader request from Darrenn E Canton!

It's time to put this series to a rest. At least for now. I do have some suggestions I want to mull over and test with my own playgroup which I might cover in the future. An example is the "EDH with Planeswalkers for commanders" variant, which I personally find extremely interesting. That said, it's […]

Down -- still unceasingly -- still inevitably down! I gasped and struggled at each vibration. I shrunk convulsively at its every sweep. My eyes followed its outward or upward whirls with the eagerness of the most unmeaning despair... At length for my seared and writhing body there was no longer an inch of foothold on […]

The golden city of Orazca—newly home to a massive free-for-all, a deadly and enigmatic artifact and of course, the rising of a bloody sun. Orazca seems to take inspiration from several legendary/mythical cities (such as the mythical El Dorado, the city of gold), but the one that seems most obvious is the city of Teotihuacan […]
