vynnset is hard. I'd win so much more if my favorite hero type wasn't "play 100 matches before you call yourself a beginner"

ok maybe i don't need a cold foil anymore

I would like each tdov to not feel progressively more bleak and desperate than the last in my lifetime thanks for being here with me

crushing it on vibes tonight

I have a dire shelving situation

god damn I love runeblade

look at my cute girlfriend. this is a threat.

the speedrunning community was as toxic and as much of a boys club (if not more) as many others not too long ago, and the transition to it being a more queer-positive and inclusive event wasn't inevitable. GDQ's shift has been really meaningful and it's a lesson for what a lot of other spaces can be

this surfaces in my mind again as I watch people actually experience disappointment when their hero gets support because it spells the end of getting to play it. it would take a lot of effort to come up with a system where people cheer against their favorite cards, but here we are

Maybe we just aren't smart enough and LSS is methodically dragging the power level of the game backwards. God knows the format right now kinda rips, even if we're desperately lacking diverse gameplans. Re-introducing powered down complex decks in OMN might be the start of a new era

this is how I interface with card games: I fall in love with a deck, and focus on it. I spend years personalizing the aesthetic and mastering the deck. I bought into FaB under the promise I'd get to do that here. I don't really get to do that in FaB. A year or two is actually just not that much

trying to wrap my head around "FaB is a game that rewards specializing in a hero" and "you can't actually play that hero for very long unless it's terrible" this is a criticism of the Living Legend system

playing on Deathrite Shaman for a decade and then switching to Twilight Diviner follows a couple of really funny narratives about my life

taking a more passive, observing role in the FaB hype machine for the last 12 months has showed a weird pattern: it's more-or-less objectively incorrect to hope for or anticipate reusing old cards it seems like the design focus prioritizes subverting expectations over player desire is that good?

we should, at some point, start calling FaB a live service game and not a non-rotating one

LSS really went

giving oscilio a terminal diagnosis is crazy

I've had such a good Sunday, I'm excited to play my new cold foil Channel Lightning Valleys on May 29th

@infinitokens.com on a FAB stream???

But also, another piece of feedback: make sure you have a way of hearing from players in my shoes. I don’t want to presume, but I’ve never seen a public survey like the kind that magic does and I’m concerned you’re not going to get the positive feedback you deserve for one of your biggest wins.

alright fine I'll be a runeblade player damn

"James White is becoming a brand liability on social media" was not on my bingo card

date dayyyyy

I think I'm allowed to be a little mad they FINALLY printed elemental cards and then went haha fuk you we designed new element heroes where you can't play them

played my first handful of vynnset games last night and I fear i may be addicted I also learned that many of my opponents have played spellbound creepers into me incorrectly for a long time lmao

I played Magic for years, but Flesh and Blood brought back the excitement I was missing. Made a video about why I made the switch and what I love about flesh and blood . ⚔️ youtube.com/shorts/zJAdc...

the mtg/linguistics/trans nerds have translated "death before detransition" into phyrexian.

when you're mean to me, this is who you're being mean to

is it June yet

they got me

I hate how often I'm reminded that pointing out systemic violence against trans people is treated by liberals as offensive as the violence itself because they can't pretend it doesn't exist for that moment

gotta say, living somewhere you don't have to regularly flee the state from for fear of your own safety is surprisingly good for the mental

#fabtcg decks names on stream rocks so much, please keep doing that. characterizing your players with that is sooooo good

I realized yesterday I have 7 active commander decks 6 are from lorwyn or alara 1 from bloomburrow

played commander commander fun

my wild baseless speculation is we get two marvel Zyggys

close enough, welcome back waning moon

wow a canonically queer character like the day I went "damn we sure are overdue for one" yay the 18 months of not being that hype about fab is over

"im whatever you want me to be"

zyggy gives double trouble and that makes me so happy. god dammit I'm gonna love this set

okayyyyy I'm hype. you can't give me cunty genderfucked they/them illusionist with a weapon that sounds like aphrodisiac and expect me to just not be excited

Hey all, I'm doing a lil survey about representation in the FaB community. This survey discusses gender, sexuality, ethnicity and disabilities. I am curious to see the statistics within the game's player base. Please take it if you have a moment! #fabtcg forms.gle/PXuYSEBuJiy9...

*glancing at mtg bsky does fab bsky need to be hornier?

the funniest thing is all of these arcane damage memes write themselves, i barely play the class lmao

it came up again

this bill is legitimately a three-alarm fire. if they manage to define trans existence as explicit then there is nothing stopping them from genocide. i need every single cis person talking about this, calling their reps, getting out in the streets.
