Ultra Budget Brews — Daxos of Meletis
Ultra Budget Brews - Daxos of Meletis Hello, and welcome back to another addition of Ultra Budget Brews, the column that builds entire EDH decks that contain no card costing more than $1. As someone who writes about EDH, you would assume that I probably play more EDH than any other kind of Magic. You'd […]
Commander Showdown — Inalla vs Azami
Hocus Pocus Now that Halloween has passed, we can take off our wizard costumes... and pick up our Wizard decks! Tribal decks are all the rage this year, and one of the big decks from Commander 2017 is Arcane Wizardry, featuring . Boasting the bizarre ability to temporarily copy your creatures, Inalla has proven to […]
In the Margins — Fog
Currently, there are 2,536 decks in the EDHREC database running , and not a single one of them should have it as part of the 99. Welcome back to In the Margins, a periodic column where I make grandiose, dismissive statements about decent, playable cards like Fog. And Fog is absolutely playable. It's got a […]
Combo Corner — Paradox Engine
Just over half a year ago, a card was announced that made many people call for it to be banned even before it was in our hands: . Some even believed it would end up being banned in standard, which was hyperbolic, and at times I can even see why someone might want also banned […]
EDH Political Science — Duel to the Death
World at War When the world is thrown into the chaos of multi-sided war there is an air of unpredictability.

There’s also something janky about the idea of setting our opponents up to expect one thing and then hit them with another. I recently caught up on a bunch of episodes of […]
Low Market — Greatness, At Various Costs
Karametra, God of Harvests art by Eric Deschamps Greatness, At Various Costs Hopefully I don't sound like a broken record when I tell you that I love building packages (i.e. groups of related cards that can be searched for by a central card) in Commander. "Really Bryce," some of you might say, "I didn't catch on […]
Dig Through Time — Onslaught
Welcome back to another Dig Through Time—I apologize for the lateness of this article. I had some computer troubles, and some issues with work and getting ready for a second child. This week we're going to check out 2002's Onslaught set. Onslaught brought back the cycling mechanic which was first introduced during Urza's Saga, and which we saw […]

Way of the Fist Hello EDH enthusiasts, and welcome to the Underdog's Corner! If you have never read this series before, I want to wish you a warm welcome and thank you for reading.
