Complete with cards like Plated Spider, Pincer Spider, Bequeathal and Magnetic Web, this deck is designed to bring down any flower your opponent should cast. Since this deck was originally built there have been some better spiders. Check it out, rebuild it and have fun.

Eventide is the second set of the Shadowmoor block, and is expanding on the multi-color theme that we saw in Shadowmoor. With new creature types, and odd mechanics, what's to be expected of Eventide?   ~Ryuzaki~ Discuss Here.

Combo of the Day: Aether Charge - Cavern Harpy.
Cavern Harpy is useful in more than just your infinite Aluren decks... For instance, take Aether Charge for example.  With Cavern Harpy, for each UB you invest in recasting Cavern Harpy only to bounce itself, you deal four damage to an opponent.  That's a pretty efficient use of two mana in my opinion.  While the two cards don't share a color...

All Links Page Updated... Lots of Links Removed.
7/17/08 - I went through every link on the ALL LINKS page and removed quite a few.  It appears since I did this last (which was several years ago) there have been a number of sites that have died or became idle... ~Streetz~ Discuss Here.

Raiding the Dollar Bins: Glint Eastwood.   
7/16/08 - We’re back to Nephilim this week, and now we’re going to be looking at the most interesting combat-oriented Nephilim, Glint-Eye Nephilim. It grows by discarding cards, and then draws you a card for each damage it does to your opponent. It’s clear that any deck using this creature is going to have to turn its obvious weakness into a strength.~DBB~ Discuss Here.

Fit the Flavor 2008: Round 3.5!  
7/14/08 - Thanks can be offered to the guys who all did really well in round two. Why should you be thanking them? It is because of them (almost half of the players received perfect scores) that I have been forced to sit at the drawing board and figure out how exactly to increase the difficulty level of this competition... ~Chris Newton~ Discuss Here.

Land Visual Spoiler Updated with Eventide!

Casualties of Standard.  
7/11/08 - It may sound a little odd to say, but I'm new to casual Magic. Having participated mainly in semi-competitive Standard and Legacy for quite some time, I find it fascinating here at MDV to be part of an entire sub-culture of MTG that loves alternate win conditions, theme decks, and White mana... ~Drathro~ Discuss Here.

Raiding the Dollar Bins: Raiding the Mailbag #2.  
7/1/08 - You’re surprised, I know it. I promised a few weeks of Nephilim fun for you, and now I’m not doing a Nephilim deck.To be honest, it’s more like postponing the Nephilim decks. So what’s keeping me from writing about Nephilim this week? Mechanics, that’s what and an email from a member of the MDV Forums...~DBB~ Discuss Here.
