On Monday, March 5th, Wizards of the Coast finally posted a ban update for Legacy. [[Expressive Iteration]] and [[White Plume Adventurer]] were banned in an attempt to bring URx Delver and Initiative decks more in line with the format. These are good changes and will change the Legacy metagame and how The EPIC Storm prepares Read More »
The EPIC Storm (TES) has a long history of playing as many colors as it needs to access all of the effects that are relevant for a given metagame. In more recent times, TES has been a three-color deck and then a four-color deck with the adoption of [[Veil of Summer]]. Modern Horizons II has Read More »
Modern Horizons 2 was a set that I was a little bit terrified for, especially after how the original Modern Horizons influenced Legacy. Fortunately, Modern Horizons 2 seems to have provided many new options for The EPIC Storm! Cards For the EPIC Storm [[Aeve, Progenitor Ooze|]] [[Aeve, Progenitor Ooze]] is the first creature in Magic Read More »
For the past six months, The EPIC Storm (TES) team has been experimenting with many lists cutting [[Rite of Flame]]. extra lands, main deck copies of [[Carpet of Flowers]], and more moxen were all underwhelming and [[Rite of Flame]] was slotted back in. Recently, however, [[Mishra's Bauble]] has taken those [[Rite of Flame]] slots and Read More »
Legacy recently had one of the most monumental shifts in the format: the bannings of [[Dreadhorde Arcanist]], [[Oko, Thief of Crowns]], and [[Arcum's Astrolabe]]. The two weeks since this banning have been a flurry of brewing and seeing resurgences of older strategies that have been dormant during the height of FIRE-era Legacy. Some of these Read More »
Over time, it is common for decks to evolve and cut cards that were once essential to their strategy. The EPIC Storm cut [[Infernal Tutor]] for [[Wishclaw Talisman]] to great success in 2019. Identifying cards that can seem to be linchpins, but can be upgraded is essential to evolving and continuing to improve in new Read More »
Commander Legends is the newest supplemental set to enter Legacy, and it has fewer cards than expected to impact the format. For The EPIC Storm, the two most impactful cards are both one-sided lock pieces: [[Hullbreacher]] and [[Opposition Agent]]. [[Hullbreacher|]] [[Hullbreacher]] Creature - Merfolk Pirate Flash If an opponent would draw a card except the Read More »
!mbt is a common command in a couple of Twitch chats. It spits back out the meme, "I don't know what that is, and I'm not playing around it". For a long time in Legacy, playing against a [[Mindbreak Trap]] (MBT) was just someone's choice addition as a sideboard slot. If it happened it happened Read More »
[[Empty the Warrens]] has been a defining card of The EPIC Storm for most of it's existence. There were points in time where there were up to four copies in the 75. More recently, there is only one copy of [[Empty the Warrens]] in TES and it is used only about five percent of the Read More »
[[Underworld Breach]] is banned! Though it was in Legacy for just a short time, it proved to be an incredibly dominant and format warping card. Obviously my analysis of the card and its power level were flawed, but some of the ideas were correct. [[Underworld Breach]] was not a [[Yawgmoth's Will]] in that it did Read More »
This awesome mini token set is printed on actual playing cards! A superior smooth 330gsm quality card-stock with a high-quality finish!
These tokens are literally half the size actual cards (44.45 × 63.5mm) and will not fit in standard size sleeves!
But you wouldn’t want them to any way — they’re double-sided and have creature tokens on the backs!
