Hi everyone, and welcome back. Let’s dive right in today, and talk about today’s creature/planeswalker, Chandra. Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh is able to transform into Chandra, Roaring Flame if you activate Chandra’s activated ability and have dealt 3 or more damage with Chandra this turn. Note that this doesn’t just count damage from Chandra’s activated […]

Transformers! How to transform Kytheon/Gideon
Welcome back. I know, it’s weird. It’s the weekend, and we’re updating! It’s not what you’re used up. But creatures transforming into planeswalkers is also weird, and we’re just so excited about these new planeswalkers that we want to talk about them But enough about that, let’s talk about Kytheon, Hero of Akros. Or, as […]
Ashiok et caveau du péril : encore plus de synergie pour les decks contrôles!
Ok! Toujours plus de synergies! Les decks contrôles souffrent de nuées agressives incessantes de créatures, du coups ont tendance à jouer des “swiper” comme ou . (, que tu nous manques…). Mais nettoyer le champs de bataille ne fait pas grand chose d’autre que vous achetez du temps si vous n’avez pas une menace […]
Ultimate d’Ashiok : Bien plus que de la perturbation
Nous avons dépassé le cap de la synergie à deux cartes : maintenant, nous discutons d’une synergie à UNE CARTE. Nous allons rester aux côtés d’ pour l’astuce d’aujourd’hui. À l’heure actuelle, vous savez probablement que le jeu considère que chaque Ashiok que vous jouez est un objet totalement différent des autres. Si vous exilez […]

We’ve gone a level past two-card synergy: now we’re discussing ONE CARD SYNERGY! Or we’re just throwing around the word ‘synergy’ more often than a late-90s office-slogan guy, take your pick. We’re sticking with for today’s tip as well though. Now, you probably know that the game considers each Ashiok you play to be a […]
Ashiok and Perilous Vault: Control Synergy

But wiping the board doesn’t do you much more than buy time if you don’t have a threat of your own! Luckily, Planeswalkers live through […]
How Chain Veil Really Works
The Chain Veil got a lot of speculative discussion after it was spoiled, before the release notes were available. We explain the now-official answer about how it works!
Planeswalkers, Burn, and Hexproof
By now, I hope we’re all familiar with the planeswalker redirection rule. This is the rule that says if a source you control would deal noncombat damage to an opponent, you can choose to deal that damage to a planeswalker they control instead. This is to get around the fact that something like a can […]
Using the planeswalker uniqueness rule for profit.
Under the new rules, you can activate your planeswalker, then cast a second copy, put only the old one in the graveyard (instead of both!), and activate the new one! Not always the best value, but a neat trick that can come in handy in certain situations.
