Is the new prize payout better or worse? Pete crunches the numbers and gives you the answer.

1,928Pete will be back to traditional State of the Program articles this Friday. Today he pulls something from a decade ago - about control decks. Like land destruction and infinite life combo decks, this is an archetype that Wizards no longer supports. It is a glimpse into a very different Magic.

This week, we are rerunning the tournament report featuring Pete's first old-style PTQ Top 8. This is old school: creatures are bad, spells are insane and damage still use the stack.
-
