Good value in the Fifteenth Anniversary Leagues starting today

I am very excited for the Magic Online 15 year annniversary.

First there was the Battle of the Planes. I was not very excited about that but I know some people were, like my buddy Binkabi.



What I am excited for is the added Treasure Chests for anyone who does a 5-0, 4-1 or a 3-2 in the friendly leagues on Magic Online during June 21-28. That is what I am excited for. I am reluctant to play Leagues as I make a living doing internet content and the value in the leagues is not very good ... but now it is !

I will be taking RG Ponza into a Modern Friendly League and if I do well I might even try some Pauper. I think you should join me.

The Pauper Gauntlet is coming to mtgolibrary

Pauper is in quite a sad state right now. The Daily Events are gone. The Premier Events are not firing. Pauper prices are falling. But I think Wizards did not intend Pauper to fall this deep and will do something about it.

My guess (and thats only a guess) is that they will revive Pauper through Constructed Leagues that are supposed to be released when Limited Leagues finally return to Magic Online. That has been promised to happen during 2014. On the other hand, Wizards promised that Leagues would return in 2011 as well.

If you don't know what Leagues are, you may be in for a pleasant surprise later this year.

I still think Pauper is an excellent casual format at this time and to underline this I have decided to run something I did in 2013: The Pauper Gauntlet.

Everything will start on August 31st here on mtgolibrary.com.

If you want to know more, here is my video announcing The Pauper Gauntlet season two:

Coming to you on mtgolibrary.com and MagicGatheringStrat.

I hope to see a lot of interesting brews.
