~Happy Thursday MTG peeps,We are rounding out the week rapidly so don't forget to not only make plans to get off to your local gaming store for Friday Night Magic, but to perhaps also get there a bit early to pick up the Theros Holiday 2013 Gift Box as they go on sale tomorrow.

Magic: the Gathering - The Alara Work Environment
Little known fact - the Plane of Alara was quite frankly an OSHA and work insurance nightmare. Labor laws were simply ignored and never enforced.

Magic: the Gathering - Dark Apostle
Do you know what blows chunks? That there are only 7 demons in Standard currently, none of which unfortunately are stellar. I guess if you Modern you could probably party with Griselbrand. Anywhoos - there are potential shenanigans to be had though with Immortal Servitude.
Embarrassing admission - I had one or two Shadowborn Apostles in a casual kitchen table deck for lulz and just to funk with my opponent’s mind. Opponent played Momoricide to look in my hand / deck for a demon that just wasn’t there.

Magic: the Gathering - good gawd …
The gods of Theros are ethereal beings who live among the stars. If mortals’ belief in them is strong enough, they can manifest themselves and wage war beside them. There are five mythic rare legendary enchantment creatures that embody one of the gods of Theros. Each card has a low casting cost, but is not a creature until your Devotion to that colour is 5 or more. They all are indestructible, have one static ability and one activated ability — Heliod, God of the Sun, Thassa, God of the Sea, Erebos, God of the Dead, Purphoros, God of the Forge, Nylea, God of the Hunt. Along with these gods, there are also five rare legendary enchantment artifacts that give all player’s creatures a ability and have a activated ability for it own — Spear of Heliod, Bident of Thassa, Whip of Erebos, Hammer of Purphoros, and Bow of Nylea
