Battle of Wits

• Magic is a game. You are having fun playing it and even more fun when you win. But it is always the same thing...


• You need to play creatures, attack with creatures and kill your opponent. Oh, there are also the mill decks, but everyone knows they don't actually work.


• They do after this came out!


• No, they still don't. Anyway, every once in a while, Wizards decide to grace us with something different, like poison or this card:

• This is extra fun! You enter the tournament with 237 cards cobbled together, and when you do win, everyone is amazed, befuddled, twiddled, asparagus and whatnot.


• So, we asked our inside man at the headquarters if they are willing to explore more of this type of cards. Guess what? He actually gave us some cards that will see print in the future, when the time is right.

First off:

A lot of tapping - untapping needs to be done for this to work, but there surely are many possible ways to cruise a deck like that to victory. If only I had a snow globe...

Then we have this:

This is an interesting one, as it will drive players to learn more about history and there are already talks for a GP in a castle in Britain, or in the Colosseum in Italy.

Moving on:

 This is rather amusing, since every time you attack with that Emrakul, or you are about to cast Ajani's ultimate, your opponent concedes. Well, not anymore! Also, this comes as a double spoiler, since it hints that the rules about concession are about to change...

Then we have this marvelous piece of marvel:

 All you need to do is find a witch, then burn her. It's a pity Thiago Chan is not a lady.

And finally, the one Battle that will always be remembered:

The answer is, of course, GP Columbus. Until next time, have fun winning differently!
