Bryan’s Brews No. 1 – Epic RUG Ramp
I’m kind of known as the dude that plays something different every single week. I love Magic: the Gathering for many reasons but one of the main reasons is because I always have something to think about; I always have something to work on. I love brewing decks and I love it when I see an awesome brew that someone is working on. Due to these reasons I am going to start posting here on AJMTG.com regularly with kind of like a “brew of the week” format for those that like reading and discussing this sort of thing. For the most part I will stick with Standard brews but I won’t say there will not be the occasional Modern or Legacy brew.
Standard Bruna – The Aura Authority
Bruna, Light of Alabaster, is a card that is begging to be abused. In Magic, getting anything for free is huge value, and she has the ability to get many things for free.
When one first sees this card, they automatically try to think of the best, beefiest, most powerful aura to try and get on her; but in reality, its a lot simpler than that. When building a deck that utilizes her, its a smarter route not to cram as many aura’s in the deck as possible. Instead try to find the perfect ones.
Average Joe’s Welcomes a New Writer
Greetings to all. Let me start by introducing myself and also by thanking Adam for allowing me to write for his website. My name is Christian Geohagan and I have been playing the wonderful game of Magic: the Gathering for a little over 3 years now. My first ever event was the Scars of Mirrodin pre-release. Since then I have been playing every Friday Night Magic I could get to. Although I have yet to play in any larger tournaments, such as Pro Tour Qualifiers or 5K’s, they are not far off.

For Your Consideration – Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013
I’ve been playing Magic for many years and in that time the game has continued to evolve. White borders all changed to black borders, card frames became more “modern,” painted pictures changed to photoshop paintings and style guides became a thing. Planeswalkers joined the party, cards started being two-faced and grew in power with each set. The game has even evolved into the digital age where people across the world can play Magic together online.

Casual Combo Deck – Semblance Anvil Tezzeret
Time to get my Combo on
Generally when building a new deck it’s due to a few possible reasons. It could be for a particular strategy type like making the opponent discard or having cheap efficient spells. Sometimes it could be to combat strategies in the current meta. Other times it is because there’s a card that looks like fun to build around. This article is about one of the “other” times.
