Mechanics in Magic!  As a new player it is sometimes hard to understand all of the nuances of the various mechanics of the game.  After understanding basic game play in Magic you need to next understand the different mechanics that pop up as you play, especially in paper Magic.If you are new to Commander it is especially important for you to learn the different mechanics and this episode is for you.  We chose just a few of the mechanics that gave me (Joel) trouble as a new player and hope this information can help you as you are learning the game.  Also, if you've been playing a while there are still things that can "stump you", this episode is for you as well.-------------------------------------------Welcome to the Commander's Journey!
