Web Hopping with The Cardboard Witch

Well folks, as promised I've been working my little butt off writing about Magic on the inter-webs over at Mana Deprived and Legit MtG .

It's not easy, but so far I'm doing a pretty good job of keeping up with the pace of writing for growing Magic websites with large readerships. The people I work with at both sites are pretty amazing and in particular to thank Dave Mantel, Justin Duewel-Zahniser and Heather Meek for making my job so much easier. Of course it's also great to be working with Jon Medin and KYT; both of these guys work tirelessly to make Magic a better place and I'm proud to be a part of helping their websites grow.

Unfortunately I don't have a lot of news for you folks except to say that I've published a few articles and I appeared on Episode 14 of the MtG Podcast: Heavy Meta with regular hosts @MattyStudios and @KevyMetall with special guest @MTGOFerret. Check out the links below:

A Triggered Response: The Woman in the Mirror. - A personal response to the second round of trigger rules in competitive Magic (since changed a 3rd time).

Chasing the White Whale - over on Legit MtG.com we take a look at Duskmantle Seer, a new card from Gatecrash with amazing potential that might struggle to find a home in Standard.

Heavy Meta Episode 14 - The Ferrett, the Witch and the Bottle! - my aforementioned first every appearance on a Podcast. We talk about the Gatecrash Pre-Release, the banning of Bloodbraid Elf in Modern, Financal Advice with the MtGO Ferret and some long winded shoutouts. I had a blast and the boys said I did a good job but you be the judge.

Tha Crossroads: The Passing and (Potential) Rebirth of Jund in Modern - This is a more detailed look at what the Banning of Bloodbraid Elf means for Jund in Modern. Hint, it's not good.

Well folks, until next time thanks for reading and I hope to see you again real soon. Keep it weird.
