Magic the Gathering Commander players have been screaming for a true leader for Squirrel tribal for many years.

Tarnished Citadel – A Magic the Gathering Card Review
Tarnished Citadel, a nonbasic land card from Magic the Gathering’s Odyssey set, has been and continues to be a key component of Darien, King of Kjeldor EDH decks even in 2022. Not only does this land offer you the opportunity to tap it for colorless mana, but it also gives you the option to tap […]
Chameleon Colossus – A Magic the Gathering Card Review
Chameleon Colossus has always been a fairly valuable Magic the Gathering card. It was originally printed in Morningtide and saw some play in Standard back then. With his versatility and power level, the Colossus has remained popular in tribal decks in casual “Kitchen Table” Magic, EDH, and even Modern. The price of Chameleon Colossus dropped […]
Adeliz, the Cinder Wind – A Magic the Gathering Card Review
“(Insert name of uncommon legend creature here) is good” could easily be a theme in the Dominaria set. But, Adeliz, the Cinder Wind is actually quite good. Even as an uncommon, Adeliz quickly found herself on buylists for bulk rare price or even slightly higher. She also has had a positive demand curve. Adeliz, the […]
Cleaving Reaper – A Magic the Gathering Card Review
Before the printing of the Kaldheim set, Magic the Gathering hadn’t printed an Angel creature which was mono-Black. One of these Black Angel creatures is the Cleaving Reaper. Like another Angel being released in the set, Valkyrie Harbinger, the Reaper is only available in Theme, Set, and Collector boosters. The Reaper is an Angel Berserker […]
Nissa, Vital Force – A Magic the Gathering Card Review
Nissa, Vital Force is one of two Nissa planeswalkers in Kaladesh. This 5-mana planeswalker is included in the set itself, whereas the other Nissa, Nature’s Artisan, is included in the Planeswalker decks for this set. How good is Nissa, Vital Force when compared to past Nissa planeswalkers? From the looks of it, pretty darn good. […]
Eater of Hope – A Magic the Gathering Card Review
Eater of Hope was one of the pre-release promotional cards for Magic the Gathering’s Born of the Gods sets. At the time, these sorts of cards were often interesting, if pricey to cast, creatures that could be useful in draft or sealed deck. There were five promos, one in each color. Eater of Hope was […]
Why is Juzam Djinn So Expensive?
One of the most expensive cards from Magic the Gathering’s Arabian Nights expansion, Juzam Djinn on Magic’s Reserved List. This means it can’t ever be reprinted, making it a chase card for collectors. Today, a single copy of Juzam Djinn can sell for a price high as $2,000 USD with professionally graded copies fetching over […]
Gideon, Martial Paragon and Friends – A Magic the Gathering Planeswalker Deck Review
While the planeswalker Gideon of the Trials making waves in Magic the Gathering’s competitive Modern format, it proved easy to forget that there another incarnation of Gideon somehow simultaneously existed on the plane of Amonkhet. Featured in one of the two Amonkhet Planeswalker decks, Gideon, Martial Paragon is a powered down, but still very interesting […]
Purity – A Magic the Gathering Card Review
The Lorwyn set in Magic the Gathering had many strange and unusual creatures from both a game-play and flavor aspect. While not one that saw much Constructed play in its day, Purity is quite an interesting card from a gameplay perspective, but my most favorite parts of the card are its artwork and concept. The […]
