Shardless BUG and Magic Tournaments
This article is going to cover two separate subjects. One is Shardless BUG in Legacy (with a recap of my tournament at SCG Syracuse) and the other is on recent Magic tournaments from my perspective. If you're not in to legacy, I recommend control F-ing to "This next section" , and if you're not interested in Magic tournament behaviour, here's a link to a cat video!

Comparing Miracles
If you’ve been watching the legacy tournaments, or if you’ve been flattering me by reading past tournament reports, you might notice that there are two very different builds of Miracles recently posting strong finishes. We have Joe Lossett (TEDitor's Note: Ron's not-so-secret crush) playing what he calls Cheater Miracles, but which you might also see referred to as Legendary Miracles, and we...

Tournament Report with UWr Miracles
