"Gideon of the Trials" Deck Tech - "Magic: The Gathering"
This change in characterization can be seen in Chandra, Torch of Defiance, whose card we covered yesterday (November 5th, for Guy Fawkes Day!) as an Oathbreaker deck tech article.

"Liliana, The Last Hope" Deck Tech - "Magic: The Gathering"
I may have nearly worked myself to death! I even missed the chance to concoct a final "Oathtober" tech for the Oathbreaker format, a format created by the WeirdCards Charitable Club I'd already done four of them (Tibalt, Arlinn, Ashiok, and Sorin – not necessarily in that order), so I thought a fifth would be[...]
"Rankle, Master of Pranks" Deck Tech - "Magic: The Gathering"
We can also make them discard cards as well, meaning cards like what you'd normally see in my infamous Davriel, Rogue Shadowmage deck for Oathbreaker all shine quite nicely in here. Notable Inclusions Cards similar to Nekusar – The most important cards in Nekusar decks seem to be the ones which act redundantly to Nekusar himself[...]

"Oathbreaker" Ban List Updated - "Magic: The Gathering"
This past Friday (October 11th), the WeirdCards Charitable Club members responsible for the Oathbreaker ban list decided to do something amazing for the format: they unbanned Recurring Nightmare, one of the most controversially-powerful cards still on the Commander ban list.

"Sorin, Lord of Innistrad" Deck Tech - "Magic: The Gathering"
Last Friday, I wrote up a deck tech for Oathbreaker, a relatively fresh format for Magic: The Gathering created by the WeirdCards Charitable Club This tech revolved around Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded, a Planeswalker card which is seen a pretty bad in every other format Surprisingly, Tibalt is remarkably powerful in this one, and that makes worlds[...]
"Linden, the Steadfast Queen" Deck Tech - "Magic: The Gathering"
It's going to be a fair few weeks of techs (not to mention the Oathbreaker decks I plan to write about on Wednesdays), but by the time we are done, I'll have gone over all of the major potential commanders for the set How about that?

"Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded" Deck Tech - "Magic: The Gathering"
However, we will be doing this through the lens of Oathbreaker, a format created by a Magic-based charity known as WeirdCards. What's important about Oathbreaker is that this format makes Tibalt really, really good. Who, me? Source: Wizards of the Coast Yes, Tibalt, a planeswalker who has been tested again, and again, and again, by so many players enamored by his[...]

"Throne of Eldraine" Product Review, Part 1 - "Magic: The Gathering"
We get two of the rare ancillary card and four of the uncommon card, in addition to the face Planeswalker, of course. In playing with both decks together I found that the sooner a player got out their Planeswalker, the better – this actually lends itself very well to modifying these decks into Oathbreaker decks, a topic[...]
"Throne of Eldraine" Product Review, Part 1 - "Magic: The Gathering"
I made myself Oathbreaker decks for Oko, Thief of Crowns and the Royal Scions, two Planeswalkers I did get out of the booster box (I'll be showcasing these decks around November, when I've gotten them tuned more finely, but I will be writing about the Oathbreaker format tomorrow, so keep your eyes peeled!). I do have[...]

Now, I'm not someone who that release is 100% marketed towards, and as[...]
