Each year, one Chinese city is selected to host the prestigious “Orlov” Legacy tournament, gathering the country’s entire community for one big event with arguably the most profitable payout in the history of the format. In 2018, this honour would fall to the nation’s capital Beijing, where on December 15th
It’s 11:57pm on a Sunday night. Two men in their early 30s gather around a table in an abandoned hotel lobby. Their bodies are tired, hungry, and exhausted from a long day in a foreign town. They have spent the last two hours roaming the suburban streets, desperately trying to

Disclaimer: This was meant to be a long and thorough article about Slow Play in Magic, particularly in Legacy. Unfortunately, I never had the time (pun unintended) to finish my earlier draft of it, but still really wanted to get the word out there. I have never been this pissed
Grand Prix time! The annual event the entire continent’s Legacy community is looking forward to. It’s quite a shame Wizards of the Coast decided to hold both the US and EU one on the same weekend, given how interconnected the community is, with several players usually flying across the pond
First of all: big Shoutouts to MKM and their tournament organizer JK Entertainment for finally putting Germany back on the map of big international tournaments.
