this is wonderful — a game where you guess which magic card's printing is more expensive: mtgpricequiz.netlify.app

BUG Depths for Mid-2016 Legacy, quite possibly my favorite deck of all time

regret to inform the haters that ub fans have acquired a potent new reply with the mister fantastic promo artwork

Played a local premodern monthly with GroATog (GAT) and lost in top 4. I expected a lot of red and goblins but also shoutout to the calls of the herd I saw from joyfulwaffle. shoutout to @kmcsleevesusa.bsky.social and cc @fireshoes.bsky.social @mtgbanding.com @lannynyny.bsky.social

also finished my set of aura fractures

have always thought a format panel for legacy would be tricky but I may have to change my mind…

organizing some cards today and discovered I apparently have a set of miscut/shifted swords to plowshares

Trying out premodern naya terrageddon! @ twitch.tv/jarvisyu cc @lannynyny.bsky.social and @mtgbanding.com

does this combo work the way I think it does? #Premodern h/t @mtgbanding.com

1/ more thoughts since people have asked influencing is about taste and aspiration. it's hard to demonstrate taste in magic because there is one company that makes magic cards. imagine how difficult it would be for a fashion influencer if uniqlo was the only clothier out there

hi taylor may I sit with you for game five

I think it’s interesting that magic has very few influencers but many content creators. someone can be both but they are not the same.

tokens and the original artwork have arrived

pov: I am an underling that just unwittingly ruined dr doom’s plans

I think it is very cool that both premodern and vintage had high prizing events over the weekend ($5k and power nine, respectively) and both had eight different decks in their top 8

thinking about red-orange artwork on non-red cards

Today’s video marks 250 paper Premodern matches on the channel ❤️

Dipping my toes into Premodern for curiosity's sake, and it's been a fun journey going through the decks to only go down the rabbit hole of finding out why the deck is named the way it is (Iggy Pop, Full English Breakfast, etc). #MTGPremodern

winner's plaque has arrived for nyc's big premodern event. also shown are the two previous champion decklist cards.

what is this? a library for ants? how can we be expected to to teach our children to read if the books are the same size as a magic card?!

excited to reveal this year's commemorative token for nyc's annual premodern event — every participant gets three of them. illustrated by animalmothership (on ig).

spent 15 minutes to draw a temporary logo for a new premodern podcast so they wouldn’t have to resort to ai tools you can just draw things!

I can think of one thing that wotc can do that would be even more popular

mtg sales posts on fb be like "prefer to sell as a package" and it's 12 of the most unrelated cards you've ever seen

aristocrat decks software engineers 🤝 burning through tokens

rebecca guay is planning to auction her sketchbooks from when she first started illustrating for magic... here is a sample of what is included

the other four landscapes we commissioned from donato giancola: > corona park in queens > midtown in manhattan > botanical garden in the bronx > pier 1 in brooklyn

nyc's premodern crew commissioned donato giancola to paint five landscapes related to our city (special shout to andy). here is the first one:

going to try out some lobstercon t8 FEB with andrew shrout (survival combo) @ twitch.tv/jarvisyu cc @mtgbanding.com @lannynyny.bsky.social

Moneyball Black, the only deck I brought to #Lobstercon 2026 I went 4-5 in the main event, but had a very good run in the Enemy Fetchland side event, going 7-1-2. Finished in 5th place out of 71 players. Match-ups in the comments Thanks to Duress Crew for hosting another amazing Lobstercon 👏👏

what actually happened with the one ring reprint was even more diabolical

day two meta (6-3 or better) for premodern’s north american champs, courtesy of hodge. replenish in the lead but still under 10% of the meta!

there was a battle of wits deck on stream … what a hero

“I use five mana and 75 cents to cast…”

in case anyone from wotc needs suggestions of premodern cards to reprint...

Gonna post the youtube vod of the premodern 5-0 with stompy tomorrow, hopefully, but here's a snippet:

Played Zoo over webcam last night. Dryads felt ok, though they might need to be Wild Mongrels. Everythig else was great. #mtgpremodern

designed a custom proxy back for nyc’s premodern crew (order of the sacred torch)

the price of this card is gonna spike

Recently played 4 matches of Oath meets Stasis in a Premodern League on MTGO with Andrew Shrout! Check it out here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz6T...

this mailday brought to you by selling off most of my legacy collection

magic substack is something else

wild that tourists to nyc don’t know the public transit rules > let people out before going in > stay on the right > offer sacrifice to the gods before embarking in hopes of safe passage > use exact change when paying the troll that lives under the bridge (doesn’t take omny)
