Back To Basics with Anatoli Lightfoot
Anatoli Lightfoot

I have been playing Magic for a long time now, nearly ten years, and for about half of that time I have considered myself a serious player. Anyone who has played as long as I have will have picked up a thing or two, and part of my aim is to share these things with some of the newer players out there. Perhaps some of the better players might benefit from someone else's perspective on things too, you never know. Who knows, maybe I'll manage to improve my own game by trying to help you guys. In any case, this column is going to be primarily a Magic theory column and as such if you're not interested in either competitive play or game theory then it may not be for you. I will try to make it as interesting as I can though!

So here I am with a fresh new column. What shall I do with it now? The possibilities are endless... well, maybe not endless, but there are certainly a plethora of them, rather than merely an abundance.
Alas, now I've gone and started it by rambling on like an idiot. You might say that's not the most auspicious of beginnings, but I prefer to think of it as building a relationship with my audience - at least, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

13-09-2004
Some time ago a friend said to me “Equipment sucks, I hate it. It's actually awful.” He was talking about Mirrodin block Limited, and at the time I thought he was out of his mind. Since then I have come to realise that in many ways he's right. Not completely right of course, some Equipment is always good.
