It's been 18 years since Magic: the Gathering started in 1993 and it's still running strong. But will it remain as popular in the future? I don't really think so and this is why:

[Brainstorming] Meandeck MUD with Scars of Mirrodin
Now if you're a mana and bombs person, this deck is perfect for you! The release of Scars of Mirrodin brought artifact bombs with it in the form of Wurmcoil Engine, Kuldotha Forgemaster, Myr Battlesphere, and Steel Hellkite. These seemed to have proved their worth when Michael Bomholt made 2nd place at SCG Indianapolis with Meandeck MUD.
Wait no more, here's the decklist:

Why Do You Play Magic?
I'm not one to make new year resolutions. But I do think about things once in a while. And with 5 days of Chinese New Year holidays, I have a lot of time to do that. I've been thinking of what I got from Magic, measuring up against what I put in, and debating whether it's worth it. Now, rather than me writing about funky deck techs and new ideas for Legacy decks, I'd like to know why you play Magic: the Gathering. Tell me the reasons why you play Magic!
Let's start by telling you mine first.

Mirrodin Besieged Legacy Preview

[Tourney Report] Top 4 Split with Merfolk!
After the ban on Survival, Legacy is in a state of flux. As you can see from the previous SCG events, Goblins and Merfolk, Counter-top and Junk, and even Deadguy Ale and Green & Taxes (Death & Taxes with green fatties) made top-8.
Now guess what I'd bring to a tourney without a best deck?

[Brainstorming] Legacy Hive Mind
Here's a blue deck that thrashes Merfolk consistently.
Serious.
At least it won 4 straight games against me, fighting through 3 Spell Pierce, 4 Daze, and 4 Force of Will main deck in the Jan 2011 Legacy tournament this past weekend.
Here's the decklist:
