I’ve had countless evenings wrapped up in the timey-wimey awesomeness of Doctor Who, with my younger brother right by my side. In my wildest dreams, I’d envision myself leaping into my very own Tardis, zipping through time and space, and embarking on epic adventures. Little did I know that Wizards of the Coast would work their magic and merge the Whovian multiverse with the world of Magic: The Gathering, and even more thrillingly, it was all tailored exclusively for EDH players like me.

“Power” is an abstract term that has been thrown around in Magic since the very beginning of the game and continues to dominate social discourse and how player’s think about, discuss, build decks and play the game, especially in Commander.

Hey everyone!
I’ve been dipping my toes into all sorts of formats lately as RIW Hobbies began their 1K series. There are opportunities to win boatloads of store credit and I want to have as many shots as possible. Last month I split the finals of the Pauper 1K and now I’m trying my hand at cEDH with the RIW 25th Anniversary 1K on October 29.

I’m back with a top 4 split at the RIW Modern RCQ last weekend playing Rakdos Scam. There were 67 players with plenty of Michigan ringers so it was no small feat. I won $275 credit which was used to buy cEDH staples for the RIW 1K on October 29. Today I’m going to share the list I used in the event and some general thoughts on the deck.

Hey everyone!
Today I’m going to discuss my current Dimir Terror list in Pauper as well as provide a sideboard guide for key match ups. Mono Blue Delver is currently the most popular way to build around Tolarian Terror, but I believe the black splash is the way to build for a Mono Red metagame.
