It's been a while what with a slowed down summer and a new website in the makings, but whiffys here this week with the last 3 PE'S, 2 decks and 2 top 8's!

Today I take a final look at one of my most favorite Standard decks. Fish may not be losing much, but it's losing one of the better cards it can have in Lord of Atlantis. Will the deck be able to compete after the rotation? I take a look at one final PE, and make a few suggestions for where the deck could go when Shards of Alara comes into the format, and Time Spiral Block leaves!

Walkerdog is back and takes a look at the Classic Format, and has a tournament report to go a long with it! Did you know Classic is starting to get more than one PE a week? People should play the format. It's a blast!

Time Spiral, Planar Chaos, Future Sight and Coldsnap will all rotate out of Standard when Shards of Alara rotates in. The best time to buy cards from those blocks is now - here's what's worth getting and keeping.
