Single Scoop: Is Elfball A Meme Now?

by TheAsianAvenger // Apr 24, 2025

It feels like it's been ages since Elves have been good. Maybe that finally changes since Tarkir Dragonstorm has brought us Craterhoof Behemoth !

We're still missing Collected Company but we sure as hell can try to win with some elves. The deck doesn't get blown out by Temporary Lockdown but cards like Day of Judgement and Sunfall certainly exist but our game plan will be to 'Hoof people before that point. Surely "honest" Magic can still work?

Single Scoop: United Battlefront is a Bonkers Card

So maybe making a Collected Company for non-creatures was a little too wild. United Battlefront is definitely a bonkers card that is so much fun to cast!
