Oh yeah, its dopamine time. fuck ICE: www.gofundme.com/f/cube-for-a...

The videos from @cubeforacause.upkeepnewyork.com are slowly making their way up to our YouTube channel! These streams were a ton of fun — if you couldn't make them live I'd highly recommend checking them out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvwi...

blankly, without shade — decks are value synergy machines that take ~10 game actions per turn. every card is three cards. just unrecognizable to me as standard.

tuned into standard this morning and watched 20 mins of commander

Spent my Friday night writing over 3000 words about the latest changes to 100 Ornithopters because I have brain worms cubecobra.com/cube/blog/bl... Video coming next week before it’s featured at @capitolcube.org

OH SHIT, new A Life Well Wasted!?

A little bit of a later start today, but we will be live very shortly! Blessed with @tiddypills.bsky.social’s presence in the booth m.twitch.tv/luckypapermt...

Tune in tomorrow for more!

Time for the second draft of the day, and with none other than Dirt/Patrick in the booth m.twitch.tv/luckypapermt...

I forgot how nice it is to wake up on a Saturday and throw on a magic tournament!

Come watch Andy and I commentate doubleton synergy!! We’re about to start the games, and the deck we’re following seems sweet as hell. Value tags @fireshoes.bsky.social @b101nf0matr.bsky.social

We are live! Really excited about this stream I hope people will tune in www.twitch.tv/luckypapermtg

Getting real excited for this weekend’s stream! @nickzlmhc.bsky.social helping us test out @nyc-mtg.bsky.social’s sick setup. Got a great line up of cubes coming your wall all Saturday and Sunday. m.twitch.tv/luckypapermt...

Kind of telling that companies apparently feel like they need to apologise more for using AI than for transphobia

Love that when there is a news story about a whole flight being cancelled because a woman had terrible diarrhea on board I hear about it from *three* of my weekly podcasts.

I’ve been working hard on planning this weekend’s stream of @scottmirts.upkeepnewyork.com’s Cube for a Cause — I’m really excited for the vibe we’ve got planned. Hung up on one detail: we will need a break for lunch, what, if anything should be on stream during that time?

Y'all I'm so proud of @andy.luckypaper.co for this week's intro luckypaper.co/podcast/265-...

Parker's retrospectives are great, and I especially enjoyed this one with Odyssey Block being a fascination of mine. It harkens back to an era where tournament players were considered the primary player base, and all of the "interesting" (see: not fun) implications of framing the game that way.

Idk how I missed the first episode, but one of the GOATs is back on the mic!

Very grateful to the Shoebox team for having a lot of trust in me for some ambitious design concepts, on which there is much more to come!

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all: “If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.” Israel just killed him.

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

We’ve got 27 for #cubetuesday! I’m trainwrecking the Bun Magic Cube and handing out Ws to my opponents like candy

a record THIRTY-ONE in attendance for our Queer Magic Night tonight!!!

Updated our operating costs and income for July, which includes our first month of Patreon income and also, very excitingly, $500 paid out to people to help them attend a local cube event in what we're calling the "Cube Fellowship". More on that to come! luckypaper.co/operating-co...

A few weeks ago @anthony.luckypaper.co and I flew all the way across the country to attend Inland Northwest Cube Fest. @janemckinney.bsky.social put together probably my favorite menu of cubes for an event like this. We talk about our experience on this week's episode: luckypaper.co/podcast/263-...

Parker has been churning out these set design retrospectives — a soothing balm for Cube designers who aren't vibing with contemporary sets. They are well worth your time!

I need you all to see the photo Patrick submitted for his headshot, and enjoy with me how completely normal it ended up looking thanks to the treatment the C4AC graphic designer put on it. Absolutely hilarious.

I’m hyped that we have Andy and Ollie on our commentary crew - but there’s still 2 more folks! Our next #mtgcube commentator needs little introduction! The one and only @tiddypills.bsky.social joins us at #C4AC! Join us in person or on stream 8/23 & 8/24 Tix: www.upkeepnewyork.com/c4ac-ss25-ti...

Really excited to do some more coverage, and this time with some more creative control 😎 Even if you're nowhere near New York and can't attend, put it on your calendar because it promises to be a great time.

hell? yea, brother

What are your favorite creative old school ways to abuse Phyrexian Dreagnaught? I’m talking Altar of Dementia, Fling, and Greater Good instead of Stifle and Vision Charm.

magic the gathering players when they walk into any games store now

We have 34(!) for #cubetuesday and are going to need to start bringing a fifth cube. I’m actually sitting out because there is no room!

Attention Cube-ists! 🧊 Two-Headed Giant Juggernauts! ✌️ And Pauper... Peeps? ❤️ We are SHOEBOX, a BRAND NEW Magic event coming to St. Paul Minnesota in 2026 and we want to see YOU there! Will you be ascending the Judge's Tower? Or just drafting some crazy creative Cubes? Let us know below! 👇

This week on the show we’ve got @joe-cube-anderson.bsky.social on to talk about “story moments” in Cube — what they are and why they are so valuable to him. luckypaper.co/podcast/261-...

Parker is just churning out great article after great article. He’s a machine!

Starting off Inland Northwest Cube Fest with a Stone Soup draft, @dsb-cubes.bsky.social’s brilliant format where everyone brings 45 cards without any prior coordination, then mashes them together.
