The Hyperlane Report: Dice Based Pseudonyms – Legacies

Dice Based Pseudonyms Legacies Everyone excited for another entry in, probably, the best segment I don’t even creatively partake in! If you wanna know more about what this segment is, go here. This set had some really funny names and also some great cards so get ready for a pretty fun time! Modified HWK-290 – Turtle […]


The Scoop: Elementary EDH – Jungons

Before dinosaurs became a thing, my two favorite creature types were hydras and dragons. That really hasn’t changed. I’ve found that hydras have a harder time conforming to an effective deck (which hasn’t stopped me from running a good chunk of them in my Animar EDH deck), but thanks to […]


The Scoop: Casual Contemplation – Old Skittles

Running Infect is a stigma of Magic. It’s commonly frowned upon as “easy mode”. And for good reason. A good Infect deck preemptively cuts an opponent’s life total in half. It’s Wither and Poison put together into one mechanic. It was also one of my first decks ever, and it […]


The Hyperlane Report: Removing a Threat – Standard Update

Removing a Threat Standard Update With the release rotation documents for Star Wars Destiny, I thought it was about time to take another look at each faction’s dice removal again. This article will follow a similar form as the previous removal review article I did a while ago, but I will […]

The Hyperlane Report: Building for a Friend

Building for a Friend Recently I had a buddy of mine ask me to help him with a Star Wars Destiny deck for a new player. The player wanted to use Aphra and Darth Vader, but after banging our heads for a while we suggested Aphra and Seventh Sister. I had […]


The Scoop: Magical Supplements – Rivals of Ixalan Pt 2

The official release of Rivals of Ixalan was last week, so let’s take a look at four more cards from the set that I’m loving. In sets past, I’ve seen more obvious synergy jump out at me (beyond the obvious tribal implications). In this set, my eyes just weren’t focusing […]


The Hyperlane Report: Drafting, It Isn’t Just for Podracing

Drafting, It Isn’t Just for Podracing Drafting is now a thing you can do in Star Wars Destiny! A lot of people were waiting for this as a new way to enjoy the game and draft and sealed play is a huge deal for any CCG. With these new packs, […]


The Scoop: Magical Supplements – Rivals of Ixalan

The full release of spoilers has had time to simmer, so let’s take a look at a handful of cards coming out in the new set that could provide some spice for the Modern and Commander formats. And, of course, my love for the dinosaurs is going to come out […]
