Remember to hit reload every day or else the new card may not load!

Check out my handy-dandy archive list organizer! You can find this table at the top of the list that is sorted by color, and at the very bottom of the page. The color list is cleaned up fairly well, and is alphabetized. I also have the list sorted by date just where it was before. I plan on keeping it for ever in addition to the nice color/alpha sorted lists. I disposed of all temporary dead links for a little whlie. I marked files on the color list that have been updated within a week with the words NEW!. Chris

In this web page, I hope to present to you strategies, combos, and obscure uses for a new Magic: The Gathering card every single day.

The Card of the Day is...

R Summon Ali Baba


1/1
"R: Tap target wall."

When Ali Baba when in print, there weren't too many walls you'd ever see in tournament play. Now that this famous character is out of print, walls are hip to play with again. What gives? Even though Word of Blasting is probably my favorite wall-whacker, Ali Baba does an excellent job of making walls almost useless for almost no mana. Word of Blasting and Tunnel are both more efficient at taking care of walls, yet Ali Baba can not only mess with multiple walls (he's pumpable--tee hee), but he can attack for a few damage here and there. Once your opponent's walls are no longer a problem, you can sacrifice Ali Baba to something neat like Skull Catapult or block a Tolarian Serpent with him just as well as any other dinky creature. Sure, I usually use Ali Baba as a sideboard card (not more than 2), yet there are some ways to make this often overlooked thief quite much more dependable:
