Can’t think of something to post. I got stuck at work in the office in the past few days, doing keyword research and writing Google ads for my new client. This just popped out of my mind while searching for online marketing stuff. I’ve noticed that a lot of bonuses and freebies are given every time you join their coaching program or buy their products. These marketing strategies are also applied in Magic card and creature spells. Here are some of them.

Magic: the Gathering – Two Deck Ideas

Okay, I might confuse you with the title. I will not be posting any new deck ideas I came up with (as if I have formulated any) but rather I’ll just share with you the two decks I’m choosing to pilot for this Saturday’s Standard Tournament.

Hey guys, I hope you had a fun weekend and did well in your respective weekly tournaments. As for me, I didn’t perform well at the tournament. I hate to go into detail of it so just don’t mind.

Deck of the Week: Mono Black Aggro
This week’s deck feature is a Magic: the Gathering Standard take of one of Magic’s favorite decks: Mono Black. It was created by Jim Stafford and got 7th at State Championships 2008 in Wyoming. The list uses the powerful black creatures in Standard like Ashenmoor Gouger and Demigod of Revenge, and spot removals like Unmake and Nameless Inversion. It also uses Dusk Urchins, which served both as a beater and card drawer source.
