Caw Blimey, Birds in Premodern? I brewed this deck as a bit of a meme, but it ended up being so good I want to buy it in paper.

The other day I watched a Penn And Teller Fools Us bit with my daughter and worked out exactly how the trick was done and explained it to my daughter. Then when Penn and Teller did their keywords, they used the exact ones I thought they would to signal how it was done.

I am going away for the weekend and all I know about it is that I'm staying in a Hotel for 2 nights, it's roughly an hours drive away, and I'm going somewhere that requires tickets and some walking tomorrow. Should be interesting to see how it pans out.

These big climate summits are such a joke. Just a bunch of people talking nonsense about how they are opposing climate change whilst in reality they are taking money from fossil fuel companies and don't give a shit about the climate. If they cared, they call for an end to billionaires.

There are some really simple ways to highlight how our society is rigged against us that any one can understand If you take £5 out of the till because your employer didn't pay you, they can call the police and have you arrested If they don't pay you, the police do nothing, you have to pay lawyers

People need to understand that Labour would prefer Reform to win the next election rather than the Green party.

"Did women ruin the workplace". Even if you are specifically talking about Margaret Thatcher who ruined everything, you need to get in the bin because she sure as fuck has never been representative of "women".

The Avatar Set looks so much better than the Spider-man one. There are so many potential reasons for this, but I think having a more compatible setting certainly helps. Also, Waterbending is a dogshit mechanic and Earthbending's clause of the land coming back isn't a great design.

I think Avatar the last Airbender has amazing potential as a TCG and it's almost a shame to see it squished into magic instead of being a fully fleshed out thing on its own.

Mamdani not being an old white guy is already a big enough upset in politics, let alone the fact he's properly left wing.

The right wing calling Mamdani a communist is quite funny and the impact could be really good. Things are likely to improve under Mamdani in NY, so people will associate communism with good things and be like "we want more of this" moving forward and open up possibilities with more socialists.

Centrists will tell you that there's no point doing a wealth tax as it'll only raise 4 billion so isn't worth it, whilst simultaneously saying 2 billion of cuts to the most vulnerable people is a pragmatic necessity.

Billionaires buying up newspapers to intentionally push propaganda and lie to people and this guy just slurps it up and then throws out the nonsense idea that the only alternative is uncritically believing AP wire. With dogshit views like this, no wonder this loser has his replies are closed.

Been thinking about this card some more in Legacy and it's pretty great, apart from the fact that so many spell based decks also run Barrowgoyf in their 75s thesedays. Incremental chipping away in the world of Barrowgoyf sucks. Think I'm an official Barrowgoyf hater thesedays

The Greens will take more voters away from Reform than Labour will. There are a bunch of anti-establishment people whoa rent really tuned into politics who could be persuaded to vote Green purely because they offer an alternative and hope. Labour's politics are toxic to everyone.

Everyone knows the entire Secret Lairs process is truly awful, yet people still keep going through it only to complain how terrible it is every time. If you want something to change here, the only language they understand is money.

"The right wing think we should take money from people who have none, whilst the left wing thinks we should take money from people who have lots of money, I am a centrist clown and think both of these ideas are the same and should be disregarded"

I think it's saying a lot when even the dedicated Turbo Reanimator players would happily see Entomb banned if that meant UB Reanimator went away.

This chart that shows the problem with

. These are the cumulative top 8 placings of the top 10 decks since the last BnR. I've added the blue line in the middle to show the hypothetical top 8 placings of UB Reanimator if it's top 8 share matched it's play rate each week.

The awful way all the big names in the Democrat party are treating Mamdani should be an eye opener to liberals. It really exposes the lie of "vote blue, no matter who". Of course, the liberals will never learn.

Remember when Netflix made a Dark Crystal TV show that was one of the highest rated shows of the year and was critically acclaimed across the board. Then they cancelled it. Despite having built the puppets already.

Adding a new bit of data to my regular Legacy data breakdown tomorrow. Making the "graph of sadness" even more stark by plotting the top 8 placings line of UB Reanimator alongside its "expected top 8s if it's top 8 share each week was the same as its overall meta presence"

Nearly 10% of the people who've watched my BnR video have commented on it. Some often before watching the entire thing lol. I can't complain about the engagement, but I should be paid more to read some of these silly comments.

"You content creators are in a conspiracy to moan about cards you hate together and get them banned" Or, have you considered that a bunch of people who play the format a whole lot have come to the same conclusions because they play the format a lot and have more to base their opinions on?

I've played 20-40 matches of Legacy each week for the last three or so years, and watched 50-100 matches of Legacy a week during that same time. I find it funny when someone who plays a few times a year tries to tell me that Legacy is totally fine right now.

I watched Rosemary's Baby for the first time today. I really wanted to hate it because it's made by a piece of shit, but it's pretty decent. I think the first half is a bit clunky at times, but it is very good.

Posting a Legacy BnR video invited the clown show of comments to town One person claiming tempo Reanimator has been around for fifteen years? The inevitable "it's the blue cards, not Entomb that is the problem" People claiming every form of reanimator dies with Entomb! Do they even play legacy?

"You just want to ban cards until Delver is the best deck again!" Bro, Delver is already one of the best decks, I want to ban the stuff so that people can play Control and Midrange decks again, you know, the decks that can prey on Delver. Get outta here with your "ban Daze" bullshit.

Alright, my detailed take on how to fix Legacy and why Entomb needs to be banned (among other things). I also go over why other cards like Reanimate shouldn't be banned.
