In the last four months, I’ve gotten into MTGO (as many people know). A big part of this was to help prepare for large events, one thing I found others doing was making spreadsheets to help them gather information. I decided to do the same, using the data I collected, it helped me make ...

Sensei’s Divining Top was banned if you live under a rock and haven’t heard. Other than Elves, I believe Storm is the deck that gains the most from this announcement. Because of this, The EPIC Storm went through an overhaul – see the changes below: Deck Lists Pre-Banning ...

A little over two weeks ago, I made the decision to split my Mac’s hard drive to run Bootcamp (I tried to run Parallels as well, but that just ran incredibly slowly). Something I’ve been pretty against for some time, I told myself I’d wait to run MODO until there was a version ...

The last two months I’ve been primarily playing a lot of Standard Magic (I know, I know, Shame on me, etc.), I was heavily preparing for GP: Pittsburgh, GP: New Jersey & PPTQs playing a sweet Grixis Dynavolt Tower deck. In the process I became distant from Legacy, yet alone Storm. ...

I am always trying to find a way to innovate and make The EPIC Storm a better deck, it never ends. I mentioned at the end of my Grand Prix: Louisville article that I felt the deck needed to move the Bayou from the main deck to the sideboard for increased mana stability. I had...

My Grand Prix: Columbus weekend began with hitting the road early Friday morning, which was something I’m not used to. Normally, I leave for trips after work on Friday, which normally works out pretty well — but Columbus is a seven hour drive. Joining me was Royce Walter, Adam Van Fleet, ...

Waking up at 5:30am to get to the Tales of Adventure Eternal Extravaganza 4 Satellite event wasn’t exactly great. I picked up a few people at our local game store before hitting the road at 6am. We arrived in Coopersburg, PA with roughly half-an-hour before the event started at 10am. I ...

At the end of the day Saturday, I had a pretty average record of 6-3. Which was not good enough for day 2. I don’t necessarily blame my deck list for my mediocrity on the weekend. Which you can view below: Main Deck 4 Burning Wish 4 Infernal Tutor 4 Brainstorm 4 Ponder 4...

Over the last few weeks I’ve been testing a hybrid storm list, a mix between The EPIC Storm (TES) and Ad Nauseam Tendrils (ANT). Basically, TES with a Past in Flames engine built in. I’ve been receiving a lot of questions from individuals who’ve caught my sporadic games on ...
