Yep. Not Alpha, Beta, Unlimited, Revised. Rather Anonymous Buyers of Used Reserved list cards. Naaah, I know, I didn’t really nail it… I thought I was pretty much done, buying playable cards from the Reserved List – recent price spikes and all that going on – but then I had some good offers, and I […]
Part 1. The introduction So Enchantress decks has been around since Alpha. Or almost. At least Verduran Enchantress has been around since Alpha. In the Old School metagame, we very rarely see the fine lady at the top tables. I think that is a pity. In this series of five, it is my goal to […]
Exactly when I can’t really seem to find the time to finish one of the articles I am working on, Ole Bonnichsen sends me an email containing a write-up of his latest indiscretions in the A40 league. Enjoy – not least the crazy deck pics! – Emil by Ole Bonnichsen Last month I participated for […]
I told you, this was on the way. A new mailday post was immanent. I have had mail. Quite a pile, even. And I still have at least one letter in the mail, containing about 70 cards more. Look at this: See, that is a nice pile of cards. Unfortunately they are not all Old […]
Short post incoming. Actually not really a post. It is not even a mailday photo post. I just want to share with you, that I am so looking forward to the coming week. There are about 200 cards on their way to my door, from different places in Europe, and expect all of the to […]
When I started playing Old School Magic, I was very aware of the prices of the cards. I did not like to pay a lot of money for cards that were objectively (from a Legacy point of view) bad. Cards like Basalt Monolith. I ended up buying a playset of Beta copies, even though I […]
I wish I could take credit for either the writing, the unbelievably cool deck or the rather impressive 4-4 finish in the Winter Derby along with a most spicy top8, but alas, all of that goes to Kristian Ringkjær Andresen, I only humbly provide the space in the cyber. Enjoy Kristians great and amazing recipe […]
A Danish old school regular, Ole Bonnichsen, played the Alpha 40 league in January. He was incautious enough to mention it, and I did my best to strong-arm him into writing a short report about his experiences. Enjoy the beautiful madness of Alpha-Only Magic! By Ole Bonnichsen Alpha 40 started in Sweden at n00bcon 2018 […]
Oh, I must say! I have been gathering strength to write this post for some days now. The hand-wrenching. The sweat and tears. I have been so worried! Since just before Christmas, I have been expecting a package of cards from Spain. And not just any cards. But they just didn’t arrive. The sender called […]
Back in the early days of Legacy, a quite fantastic deck emerged at one point – the AngelStax. Not a much played or very winning deck. But in my view, it has always been a great deck. I like the gameplan, I like the cards. I love the Angel! You can find the lists and […]
