Knowledge Vault: Syphon Soul
In an Old School MTG 93/94 multiplayer game (Brawl or otherwise), resolving a Syphon Soul chips 10% off of each of your opponents’ life totals, with some life gain upside. However, is that impactful enough to run maindeck? Let’s Crack the Vault™ and find out!
DM Panic: Random NPCs 3
For this DM Panic, I got an unexpected source of inspiration while watching some cartoons. Here are four characters whose roles I summarize as a ruler, the right hand, an animal companion, and a wizard. These characters are fluid enough to fit in nearly any setting, and any of them can be the villain of a last minute plot. I’ve also included some plot suggestions at the end of the article if you need help coming up with ideas. Read More
Persuasion Check: Five (5) reasons why you should play Old School MTG 93/94

Ready Review: “Kards” closed beta, a digital card game by 1939games.
On January 9, 2019, 1939games’ new digital card game, #Kards, entered “closed” beta. I say “closed” because I got my invite less than twelve hours after my request. Do you like Hearthstone? Do you like World War II? Then this is the game for you.
Knowledge Vault: Plague Rats (in Alpha 40)
The fledgling Alpha 40 format (minimum of forty cards and any number of the same named card) does not use the decisive rule which renders Plague Rats unplayable (“100.2a …A constructed deck may contain… no more than four of any card with a particular English name other than basic land cards…”). Therefore, with an average opening hand (2-3 Swamps and 4-5 rats), average draws (two rats for every three cards drawn), and no opposing board-sweepers, you can expect five 5/5 Plague Rats on turn six.
