That MTG Bicycle

Much like most of you, I haven't had a chance to play Magic in person at larger tournaments since 2019. Sadly this means most of my modern decks are out of date or out of meta. So now is the time to study the Mets and look for a deck that appeals to me! Luckily at my LGS there is an amazing group of course players who want to see our local group thrive.

The decks that I had built back when I played was Mono Green Tron, Green Devotion, Simic Infect, and Golgari Elves. Barring the Green Devotion, which is my pet project rogue deck, all of these decks do still see play. Even if they do see play they have changed so I need to decide if it's worth updating or just to focus on new decks.

This is a journey in looking forward to and I'm going you'll join me and let me know what you think! In upcoming posts I'll be breaking down the old decks and ideas on how to make the deck better!

New Year, New Goals

Sorry for taking so long to update the MTG Whale blog, I know you've missed me! OK well, maybe not but a guy can wish right? So it's a new year, 2022! Right now we are seeing a return to more in person events so the team and I have been planning on decks and travel. I have finished up most of the sorting of cards  as I posted about before, almost everything is scanned in, I have to redo Gold and Lands, and I have decided what decks I am actually going to build! All of them! Well not all of them exactly but I am building five different decks and buying the missing cards for several other archetypes so I can do quick swap outs.  The first decks I worked on was bringing the two decks I had built to modern standards. Mainly that was just swapping in a few cards here and there. We are still debating on what to do with Mono G Tron. We moved some of the sideboard cards into the main deck and visa versa, the big question is if we should add in Baby Karn or not. This is hone

Time to Get This Sorted Out

Image
In the beginning there were cards When I started to get into this process of sorting my collection I didn't know what I was undertaking as the project kept morphing as it went along and the scope changed a few time. I am sure I now know exactly what I want to do with this, for the fifth time, ok maybe I still don't know for sure but I have a good idea. The original idea was to revamp how I stored bulk rares to make it easier to find them. My original inventory was to have anything over $5 as a playset into a BCW 12-pocket binder that is coordinated by color, then anything under $1 where kept in the bundle boxes and scanned in, really with no reasoning behind organisation. The cards between $1-5 where in a box by color.  Several things all came to a head at once that made me decide a new system of inventory was needed. Several cards in the bulk cards spiked at once, several decks where being created that needed cards from the bulk area, and as I went through sorting
