what happened to " the duelist" magazine?
well first of all it got jewed - changed the name and incorporated poke'mon into it.
information about it can be found : here

oh, but wait it gets better - so you try to subscribe to TopDeck magazine?
not happenin' because you cannot subscribe, I tried to find out and find this tidbit here

( for those of you lazy who wont click on a link, here is a little snippet )

Johnny Wilson, group publisher for Wizards of the Coast, said, "Through extensive research, we have found that players that become experts in trading card games tend to use Internet sites to obtain most of their information. TopDeck magazine certainly created a new group of experts. These experts will now be able to receive updated and interesting news and features on our website 24 hours a day."

yeah. see. they dont give a shit about producing something you can buy and stash away and some time later re-read an article and remember " hey, that taught me how to build a deck "

fuckers.

but then there was mention of something called Sideboard magazine.
I looked into this. you can find it " online " here

it deals with tourney-talk. big pro " will this combo be big " shit ... and a bunch of other crap which I, quite frankly - dont believe holds anything against the articles I find in The Duelist because they seem too busy living up to themselves than " having fun " - it is almost as if now that there are pro-tournies an televised events they've forgotten that some kids still dont go to tournaments and play with their friends and have a local little group. This agitates me.

so.
if I can - im going to see if i can get ahold of a manner in which to actually publish something.
M:TG related. with articles that are fun, and about having fun.

Not about which combo will be seen in the next block.
or what mr. so-and-so had to say about Akroma's Vengeance.

Where is Mr. Suitcase when I need him?


( also - wrath of god is printed in 7th
better picture, in my opinion - more ... " akira " ish )
