Commentary - Why don't more women play Magic? →
This weekend, I attended the Magic: The Gathering Grand Prix at Dulles Expo Center in Virginia. And I wasn’t alone: a record-breaking 1,900 people showed up to play. It looks like Magic is popular again. However, out of that unprecedentedly large crowd, I was one of only about 30 women attending. What’s up with that?
That’s only a little over ONE percent. Read more though the link....

pschwartz:
So it seems that this is just not my weekend for magic. I’m having more luck at the casino. Hopefully I can pull something off at the WPN tomorrow. But I can’t complain too much I’m still having a good time. Gonna run r/b tomorrow and hope for the best.
Please wish pschwartz some luck!

Commentary - Duel Decks: Elspeth vs. Tezzeret
So, this announcement has stirred up quite a buzz. One of my favorite quotes is:
“For half the price of Elspeth, you get an Elspeth and two decks! But wait, there’s more! You also get a Tezzeret as a special added bonus!”

Current Favorite Card: Wall of Omens
gatheringstandard:
Imagine you are playing any UWx Control deck against Jund. They drop a turn 2 Putrid Leach. This is usually a control decks worst nightmare. You drop a Wall of Omens, draw a card, and pass the turn. They attack, pay two life, pump the Leach, and you block with the wall. Lets look at what really happened.
Essentially you just played an instant or sorcery that says: 1W:...

Rise of the Commentary - Jund, the Superfriends
Doing Sealed Deck in Rise is one of my favorite things to do in Magic the Gathering right now. It’s a much slower paced game than Zendikar and Worldwake were. With a great deal less removal, things stuck around for longer and Level Up really shined. It’ll be interesting to see how much the new Polymorph and U/W control decks will play after much Jund domination as well. Here’s...

Oh dear Lord. Goodbye life as I have known it.
I’m surrounded by the game, and the people who play it. My boyfriend plays it - he religiously collects foiled cards - and decided that he would help me learn due to my curiosity of the whole…. lifestyle ;D
