Wizards of the Coast is releasing a new set of Kaijudo this weekend. They sent us some information about it and the set premiere which you can see after the jump. We’ll also have the trailer for the set in there, it looks pretty cool.
Last Friday, Nov 1st for those not wanting to think, Wizards of the Coast released their latest supplemental product for Magic: the Gathering, Commander (2013 Edition). While I’d love to do a review on this for you, I can’t as my local store sold out before I had a chance to get any. I can however give you Wizards’ take on the product and a brief rundown of some of the cooler things I saw due to the new cards when I played in a Release-like event over the weekend. Check it out after the jump.
It’s autumn, and for most that means new seasons. What those seasons are can depend; sometimes it’s the actual changing of the weather. For many of us it’s a time for new aspects of pop culture to come around, such as new or returning television series. Well for me, the best new aspect of the season is the fall set for Magic: the Gathering, because it sets off a brand new plane and all new mechanics to go along with it. This year Wizards of the Coast has sent us to the plane of Theros, a Greco-Roman mythology based setting (finally) and the first set in the Theros block came out last Friday. So I’ve got a Major Spoilers review to share with you after the jump.
You Made the Card 4 is finished, and Wizards of the Coast has shown off a mock-up of the final look.
So, that’s actually pretty good there. Especially if Theros is still in rotation when this comes out it may see play. You can see a more detailed history of how the card came to be here. But we now want to know what you all think of the card, use the comments section below to tell us.
The latest set from Kaijudo, Shattered Alliances, released today. To celebrate Wizards of the Coast is doing Set Premiere events at multiple stores across the country tomorrow, Saturday, September 14. For more information on the set itself, such as new decks, card count, and other events, go ahead and take the jump.
As we said Friday, the final two have been selected and the vote for the name we will give our Magic: the Gathering card for You Make the Card 4 has been put up today. The final two choices are. . . all eight options. Yet another issue with the software has been noted and instead of stretching this round further, we just get to choose from all eight in one vote. Here’s the eight.
Vile Plunder
Drudge Rummage
Waste Not
Spoils of Misery
Riches From Rags
Necroharvest
Skullduggery
Carpe Noctem
I noted my preference last week, and voted on it today. Go vote yourself and let us know what you feel is best. The poll closes tonight, so make sure to get your vote in, and don’t forget to take the code “MADETHECARD” over to PlaneswalkerPoints.com for a special achievement.
Though the week ended on a major holiday, and Dragon Con took the attention of many, there’s still a lot to talk about in all the stories that hit the web this past week.
Magic: the Gathering’s Theros Party was last night at PAX Prime and the spoilers have been sent out. We’ve decided to collect them all here for you after the jump. Take a look.
The first of the Theros spoilers for Magic: the Gathering at PAX Prime have officially hit. The official party isn’t until this evening, and I will try to bring you everything as soon as its available, with some additional commentary of course, but for now just have a look at Reverant Hunter and Gift of Immortality and let them speak for themselves, after the jump of course.
Press Release
Wizards of the Coast today announced that the Magic 2014 – Duels of the Planeswalkers Expansion will release on September 18, 2013*. Adding depth to the latest installment of the wildly popular Duels of the Planeswalkers franchise, the Magic 2014 Expansion will give players the opportunity to explore new planes, fight new enemies and face new challenges. Available on Xbox LIVE® Arcade, PC via Steam®, PlayStation® Network, iPad®, and AndroidTM via Google Play and the Amazon App Store, fans will be able to check out the expansion for the first time this weekend at PAX Prime (August 30 – Sept 2) in the Magic booth (#1642).
Apparently there was an issue in the system on Monday. This round of voting for You Make the Card 4 has to be redone. Here’s the official statement.
Howdy folks,
Something went wrong in our pairings last night. We dug back into it and it looks like there was a mistake in the tracking of the names for votes (not for the options displayed) so the numbers were correct but we had them attributed to the wrong pairs. Due to this mistake, the four options we put up to vote yesterday were incorrect. Below is Ethan’s article with the corrected pairing results and the corrected votes for this round of the bracket. Please cast your vote again!
//Trick
So get over there and vote for the correct pairings. This will only be up today and the finals will go live Monday instead of tomorrow as initially planned.
Riches from Rags vs. Necroharvest
Vile Plunder vs. Waste Not
Unfortunately for me, my first pick is out. I guess Necroharvest works.
