Local games stores also thrived amidst reduced foot traffic and pinched wallets. Heck, playgroups adapted to being at […] - Read More
Vault’s Denizens: Sebastian Belgica
By: Juan Miguel Salcedo (reposted from July 2020) “**** Sebs!” “******* Sebs!” “*********** Sebs!” If you’ve played at Vault during the afternoon, you’ve probably heard these three lines (and its many variations). If you find a playgroup that includes the guy above, he’s the cause of all the frustration. His name is Sebastian Belgica and […] - Read More
Vault’s Denizens: Joaquin Gonzales
By: Juan Miguel Salcedo (reposted from August 2020) To call him an enigma would be an understatement. He’s one of those players who’s hard to read at the table and then wins from out of nowhere because the whole table decided someone else is the threat and not his low-to-the-ground, combotastic strategy.

A curfew has been set to hinder the disease from infecting any more than it already has. Streets, malls, and even restaurants are empty due to a recent executive order to prevent the […] - Read More
Flight of the (Mechanical) Valkyries
By: Juan Miguel Salcedo Vault has had five successful seasons of its EDH League and has seen both veterans and newbies enjoy the competition. With the fifth season about to begin, now would be a good time to give focus to a deck that has everyone confounded every time they face against it. Teshar is […] - Read More

REVEALING SECRET LAIR
By Mark Heggen I was in fifth grade in 1993 when Beta released. My friends and I bought as many Starter Decks as our allowances would permit, but to actually get enough cards to make playable decks, we each picked a color and blindly traded everything else to each other, so I ended up with […] - Read More
