by Leaf

After a one expansion hiatus Three Up and Three Down makes a triumphant return with Magic 2010.  The basic premise, in case you missed previous posts, is not only predicting cards duelists will play but also giving a good idea as to which cards they will replace.  Pulling Path to Exile from a booster is [...]

The Show isn’t Dead

by GatheringMagic.com

ManaNation has come in waves, being a budget project it is subject to real life. This isn't the first time we've gone through a lull but it is the worst of these sort of breaks. Even though Cool Stuff inc has been our sponsor, it is not a full time job. I work on it [...]
