GAMING: DCI Says Jace and Mystic banned from Standard
The DCI, the ruling body for Magic: The Gathering tournaments has banned two cards for the Standard tournament type. Stoneforge Mystic and Jace the Mind Sculptor are no longer legal for tournament play in standard, with the somewhat strange exception that, as long as you are playing with the “War of Attrition” Event Deck (and no alterations are made to it) you may still use Stoneforge Mystic in standard tournaments. This is the first time a card has been banned in Standard since 2005.
Have you come up against these two in the past? Are you happy about the change? Hit the comments section and let us know what you think.
ADVANCE GAME REVIEW: Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012
I’ve spent a good deal of time playing the original Duels of the Planeswalkers which I would categorize as very enjoyable.

MSP#49: Haiku This, Taffy Man!
The azure bug is out of a home! And so’s the giant squid! And so’s the Rat-man! For a change of pace, Batman fights the Joker… Kirk gets his ride pimped… Constantine gets his groove back… And Rodrigo ends up sword-fighting his way past the palace guard and riding out of town in style, only to end up huddling in an inn while a reality storm passes overhead.
