Strictly Eternal 101 – The Steel Men Cometh!

Howdy folks! It’s Joe here again with another edition of Men of Steel: The Actors Who Played Superman and Why We Love Them.

Strictly Eternal 101 – Surgically Speaking

Howdy folks! It’s Joe here again and it’s time for another edition of Jace’s Anatomy!  Or rather a good old fashioned Legacy rant time. We haven’t had one of these in a while, so let’s get right into the thick of it.  This week we’re gonna be talking all about everyone’s favorite graveyard hate/combo hate card, ! SURGICAL.  IS.  A.  CRUTCH. Let’s get that right out of the way.  Like every card in this game, Surgical Extraction has its complexity in regards to how one should be playing it.  Surgical is probably one of the most heavily misplayed cards of
