http://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/132556780753/and-the-off-limit-ones-arent-even-necessarily#notes
Recently on Mark Rosewater’s Tumblr Blogatog, he was asked, in so many words, if a return to Kamigawa was a done deal. His answer: “I believe in Blogatog speak it’s code for ‘it’s already been designed.’” So with that revelation and Shadows over Innistrad and Battle for Zendikar, what’s the next return to set?

This week, Matt Sperling wrote an article entitled “Everything you wanted to know about Magic but were afraid to ask,” that has some excellent lessons gleaned from his two decades in the game. Such as “when a bad player wins a tournament, their deck is usually better than it looks,” and, “Trust everyone, but cut their cards.” So what’s another critical life lesson that you’ve learned from Magic that you’d like to share?

** Blast from the Past -

** The Finisher: 

The infamous foil Goyf from GP Vegas Top 8 is for sale on ebay for five figures, half of which goes to GamersHelpingGamers. My question is: What’s the next piece of magic history to find its way online for sale, and what charity will it go towards?

Magic Mics airs every Wednesday at 11PM ET on twitch.tv/magicmics! Join Evan Erwin, Reuben Bresler, and Erin Campbell in this special preview segment!

Pro Tours often feature teams who "scout" -- that is, note what other archetypes opponents are playing and powerful cards their limited decks feature -- and then use this to better play against them. Join us as we discuss the goods & bads.
