Back in 2020, amysterious trailerpopped up on YouTube for an ethereal skateboarding game, aptly namedSkate Story. The teaser was brief, but its distinct abstract style and mysterious premise immediately grabbed me. It didn’t hurt that I’ve been a lifelong fan of the skating genre thanks toTony Hawk’sand, embarrassingly, Disney’s Extreme Skate Adventure. That initial trailer was four years ago, but Skate Story has managed to stick in my mind for the duration and has only looked better with each new, infrequent showing....

Summary Modern Horizons 3 isn’t a particularly bombyMagic: The Gatheringset, instead concentrating most of its power on archetypal synergies atthe common and uncommon level. That’s not to say there aren’t any bombs in the Limited format, rather that the lower-rarity cards keep pace with the average power level at rare. This set can be a little sneaky with its rares, though. Some of the Limited bombs have walls of text that can be hard to decipher, and some feel out-of-place for the color or color-pair they represent....
