Happy Wednesday MTG peeps,
The latest special Magic: the Gathering set, Modern Masters will be hitting store shelves this weekend and we are definitely excited. We here at MTG Realm don't really draft all that much as our fav format is constructed and dang!, do we ever want to get our paws on some of these crazy-awesome good cards and into a Modern build.
Anywhoos - we can't offer many tips for draft other than this - if you pull a Tarmogoyf, don't pass it as it's worth about $100 or Dark Confidant (aka 'Bob') as it's worth about $60. What we can suggest is to get to another Magic: the Gathering fan site with less derp than us and more strategy.
