In this last(?) installment of the Overdriven! series, I take the online Modern meta, put on my best “mad doctor” persona, and perform some basic gene splicing before your very eyes.

Because of the onset of Theros online, Ryan uses the downtime to check out the Modern format. In these videos he pilots a powerful Merfolk Aggro list into a DE.
The Blippy Manifesto
Stealthpants (_Stealthpants and Kahleya on MTGO) stops by the Academy to provide a brief guide on how to play his successful BW Avatars brew in Modern constructed. This deck is powerful and synergistic, and runs a number of oddball cards. It should appeal to Timmy, Johnny, and Spike!
After a recent bout with Anencephlia, I struggle to come to terms with the online meta’s evolution, and offer some thoughts on upcoming GP Detroit. Woo hoo! Motor City Madness!
