MTGGoldfish News Flash

Tiny Leaders!

TinyLeaders is the hot new format on the block and is taking the Magic scene by storm. It's a hybrid format between Commander and EDH where you play a commander in a 50 card singleton deck and your cards must be three mana or less! We have you covered here at MTGGoldfish, so check out Tiny Leaders: Introduction and this week's podcast where we cover our initial impressions of the new format. What are we playing at MTGGoldfish? SaffronOlive is playing Esper Control, Richard is playing Tempo Geist, and Tomer is playing Tempo Shu Yun. What will you play?

Commander and Tiny Leaders Support

We've added support for Commander and Tiny Leaders decks to the site! Since there aren't major tournaments like Standard, we're collecting data from users like you! Be sure to submit your deck! Check out the metagame and user submitted decks section below:

Single Scoop: Izzet is Still a Problem Post Banning

The bannings will weaken Izzet but Izzet has so many good cards that I think it'll still be a top tier deck thanks to efficient answers like Into the Floodmaw and powerhouses like Proft's Eidetic Memory!
