Happy holidays folks. Here's a little something I worked on between all of the other things I do. I took the week off from writing the Vintage-specific articles and just finished this one. If you've played Magic for a long time, or are just interested in the mid-to-late 1990's era of the game, this might pique your interest.

Thank you very much. All of my research for this article made me realize that I could have written even more about the subject. There were a lot of really interesting decks in that era. Great Whale and Recurring Nightmare comes to mind, but there was also Turbo Zvi and others.

There will be more articles like this in the future.

The first combo deck I faced (thought I'm not sure if that was a proper combo deck) was an oath deck just after exodus. That deck didn't had any creature and won using manlands. Or something like that.

Great article, I always enjoy reading histories from old times Smile
