Daily Dose of Core Set 2021 #9 – Top 5 Reprints for today’s Standard
Welcome all to the Daily Dose of Core Set 2021. Today I’ll be going over all the wonderful reprints in Core Set 2021 to see which ones will have the most impact on today’s Standard metagame. Reprints are one of the best things about Core Sets as you get a much larger percentage of them compared to the other three major expansions during the year. Some will see an immediate impact, and some...

Daily Dose of Core Set 2021 #8 – Going to the Air
Welcome all to the Daily Dose of Core Set 2021. Today I’m heading in for an aerial attack thanks to the new set. Flying creatures have always been an important part of Magic and is considered one of the best evasion mechanics in the game. There has been the framework for an Azorius Flying deck in Standard for the past few Standard seasons, but nothing has really stuck. With a few new cards from...

Daily Dose of Core Set 2021 #7 – It’s Time to Collect Them All!
Welcome all to the Daily Dose of Core Set 2021. Today it’s all about the Shrines coming in Core Set 2021. We first saw Shrines which are Legendary enchantments in Champions of Kamigawa. They are enchantments which get better with each additional Shrine you have on the battlefield. The difficulty is that they are Legendary and all in different colours. This means if you want to have the full...

Daily Dose of Core Set 2021 #6 – Its Time to Get Flashy!
Welcome all to the Daily Dose of Core Set 2021. Today we'll be getting flashy, thanks to three new cards with Flash! There seems to have been a trend over the past couple of years to increase the am0unt of Flash spells, to facilitate decks like Simic or Dimir Flash. We have seen some great success with those decks and some of these cards could be added to those decks soon. Let’s see if these...

Daily Dose of Core Set 2021 #5 – Count ‘em up!
Welcome all to the Daily Dose of Core Set 2021. Today it’s all about those wonderful things that you use dice, tokens, and money to represent +1/+1 counters. These counters have been popular in many sets. It has been a part of Magic for a long time and it’s great to see a set have a counter subtheme and deck archetype to build around. Before I talk about the new cards, there are some current...

Daily Dose of Core Set 2021 #4 – Seeing Red
Welcome all to the Daily Dose of Core Set 2021. I’m seeing red! It isn’t because I’m angry or am filled with rage, but more out of excitement about the three Red cards from the new set. Often when we think of a deck like Mono-Red, we think of aggressive creatures that deal damage quickly and burn spells that go straight to the face. Today I have three cards that are asking you to play a...

Daily Dose of Core Set 2021 #3 – Vertical Cycles starring Basri
Welcome all to the Daily Dose of Core Set 2021. Today I’m going to talk to you about a cycle of cards, but not one that spans multiple colours, but what’s called a vertical cycle of cards all from one colour involving Magic’s newest Planeswalker . Horizontal cycles of cards would involve cards like which are a part of a cycle of Charm cards from each Guild. In Core Set 2021, is take each...

Daily Dose of Core Set 2021 #2 – Bringing Back Two Old Friends
Welcome all to the Daily Dose of Core Set 2021! Today I’m going to be talking about the return of two planeswalker favourites. To be honest, though, they really haven’t been gone for that long. That’s right, it is the return of Teferi and Liliana. Every Core Set they usually print 5 mono-coloured planeswalkers, one for each colour. This continues in Core Set 2021, with Teferi replacing last...
