New Home

Hello, all. My hiatus is over now, but I’ve moved to a new site. I’ve joined an up and coming team, so you can find my new articles with GalaxyGameTV. Just look for Derrick “the Mad”. Thank you for your support! –BadMoonMTG Advertisements

Hiatus

Hello, all. It is with a heavy heart that I let you know that I am shelving regular BadMoonMTG updates for the foreseeable future. I had to pick up a second job and that has made life too hectic for me to keep up the writing necessary to even put out one article a month. […]

GB Aristocrats – Modern

One of my followers approached me recently with an interesting problem. He wants to play a Green/Black Modern deck but doesn’t want to shell out for expensive staples like Tarmogoyf and Liliana of the Veil. So, that is the challenge for this article. Can we find a Golgari budget deck in Modern?

Vaevictis Asmadi EDH

I like Dragons. Who doesn’t right? Dragons are majestic murder machines. So when I knew I was going to be writing another Commander article there was only one thing on my mind: Dragons.

Heroes and Villains

“Name one White villain in Magic,” says a random guy to his friend. “Nahiri doesn’t count, because she was a hero first.” “It doesn’t matter that there aren’t any,” replies the friend. “There could be one at some point.” This is a real conversation that I overheard between rounds of a Chaos Draft at a […]

Lost and Found

I’m looking forward to seeing what the contestants bring to the table and, in honor of this news, I’m doing something different today. I’m going to walk you through my process as I create my own cards.

Form Up Yargle-tron

There are times in Magic where a location, card, or character captures the hearts and minds of the community. It doesn’t happen often but, when it does, it comes out of nowhere and has a life of its own. Who among us doesn’t remember Fblthp fondly? Well, it has happened again. The clouds have parted, […]

Weenie Roast

Dominaria is on the horizon, and I was looking through the spoilers, as I always do before a new set release. There’s a lot there that speaks to my brewing instinct, but much of that is going to take some time to work up and will be coming later. In the meantime, something with a […]

Combustible Dinos

Everyone has their pet cards. Those cards that just speak to them and that they always try to fit into a deck, if they can. For SaffronOlive, it’s Panharmonicon. For a friend of mine, it’s Siege Rhino. For me, in Standard at the moment, that card is Combustible Gearhulk. This card was my go-to in […]
