Magic the Gathering News Vol 10: Innistrad, B&R List, Promos

Hello everyone and welcome back to another emporium update, this is your monthly edition of the Magic News, this edition of the monthly news is all about Innistrad, the Banned and Restricted List and all the neat promos that are coming up, so let's go.

Innistrad arrives on store shelves today and is sure to bring a lot of fun to the table, with the arrival on a friday as per usual, this means draft format which is currently Magic 2012 switches over to Innistrad Draft, for those curious about Double-Sided Cards in this format i suggest looking at the rules of Innistrad itself, remember for those whom play draft it's not M12 anymore so you don't have to remind yourself to make sure to snag those titans and stuff again.

The banned and Restricted list for the month of september was quite a doozy, we had a few changes to multiple formats for the first time in a long while, Legacy, Modern, Vintage and EDH all had some changes and for the full announcement on these changes i suggest using my article found here ---> Banned and Restricted List Update which detailed everything in one shot not like the usual wizards shenigans of course.

Promos abound this month, we have one more FNM to win Teetering Peaks which will be below of course


Today is your last chance to win this card, next month's FNM promo of choice is Contagion Clasp from scars of mirrodin and that will also be below.


It's in another language but we all know what Contagion Clasp does since i have like 5 copies of the card lying around in boxes, November's FNM promo of choice is rumoured to be Go for the Throat which is a mighty fine FNM promo no picture as of yet, but will keep you updated as usual, remember FNM is usually standard, so make sure the deck you bring is standard legal which means it can contain cards from Scars of Mirrodin, Mirrodin Besieged, New Phyrexia, Magic 2012 and of course Innistrad and when Dark Ascension releases in Feburary of next year that will also be standard legal, anyways that's about it for now and apologies for the short update, but this will be the last true update for the month and we will begin anew tommorow with the draft reports and how i did in FNM, till next time this is vergil signing off.
