For ages the balance was this- wizards makes cards for Magic the Gathering. Commander, a fan generated format, chooses how to use them and which cards to use. The problem started when wizards began making cards for *Commander* instead of for Magic the Gathering.

I'm feeling some things while beating up on doomsday playing reanimator in EW Legacy Championship

6-2 with Dimir Necro at NRG today for 18th. I don't think the deck is good but I had a lot of fun and I did a lot of winning. Amulet 2-1 Affinity 2-1 Esper blink 2-0 Energy 2-0 Energy 0-2 Izzet prowess 2-1 Simic broodscale 2-1 Dimir frog 2-0

It's tough loving a team that is so good yet so non-clutch. Would not recommend

CeeDee Lamb? More like CeeDeez Drops

While walking the dog a man was handing out loaves of bread from his front lawn. You don't turn down a free street loaf of bread do you

On one hand this quote is really weird, but on the other hand I am a basic bitch and I am looking forward to Romantasy... Tough day out here for us basic bitches

I guess I will continue not to play legacy. I really really wish they were more willing to remove things from the format, I get the feeling they don't want to ban things for players sake in regards to $ but I think the format is worse for it and the player base is shrinking which feels much worse

Stitch fix has perfected girl math. They give 25% off if you keep all 5 items in the box, so it's basically always worth it to keep all 5 unless you really only like 1 or 2 things. Just every time I get a box I snap off all 5 because look at the savings!

Why are salads at restaurants so hostile to vegetarians? I just want a normal salad 😔

Am I a true basic bitch if I want an ACOTAR UB set more than Final Fantasy?

I don't know if this particular claim is true or not but I do feel like legacy has felt like it's been one good ban away from being a great format for a while now so much so that I don't really believe it's true anymore

Four cards to get to know me :)

Trumps obsession with manufacturing has made me realize the average person has a lot of feelings about manufacturing but has never set foot in a factory. I have spent 9 years in industrial automation and I have to read the worst takes. Maybe lowest on the grievances list but is my personal hell

It’s that time again! The new Legacy Small Talk episode is out featuring @samrosemurphy.bsky.social go listen! open.spotify.com/episode/5Xqt...

hey. a very unfortunate and upsetting thing happened to me this week, and talking about it publicly comes at a great personal cost so if you could take the time to read it, it would mean a lot tldr: wotc pulled the ad i made on all platforms due to the comments said ad received

Birthday Trophy with NBC Doomsday with Stockup! Felt good juking people again :) @fireshoes.bsky.social

if you see a funny post by a woman, remember that women are not funny and she is being serious. you must reply seriously. write up a whole thread explaining her post's premise back to her, in her own replies. if she appears knowledgeable on the subject? she is not. you need to correct her.

Was looking at Fox News to see what spin they were doing on everything and I think they are having some interesting thoughts over there

The "free speech" crowd deporting Mahmoud Khalil for leading pro-Palestine protests at Columbia is utterly horrific. Clearly this administration is continuing to do anything in their power to silence anyone they don't like. They will take all the power they can and they will come for you next

Everyone else keeps talking about the SpongeBob cards art and I'm sitting here fuming that they keep reprinting the wrong free black spell

Jesse was my first friend in magic, we hung out at scg Indy in 2019 when we were both new to comp mtg. Honestly she set the bar too high for everyone else. Obviously she is cracked at magic, but she is also the nicest and coolest person I've met in the magic community and it's awesome to see her win

i am a regional champion

You know you cooked (or are cooked) when melee doesn't have your deck name as an option

Am I the only one who loves to check their bag when I fly. Makes me feel classy and weightless

If you look like this dm me

I cannot believe there are people not registering breach for Charlotte. How dumb do you have to be? It's clearly the best deck. I say as I pack soul spikes instead of mox opals. My pet deck is clearly misunderstood

Inside me are two wolves Charlotte is a real fight between brain and heart

I'm from St. Louis and I firmly believe that it's got the highest amount of cool and unique things for it's size by a wide margin but everything else is so utterly terrible about the state and the area that it's hard to really stand behind

I appreciate that Kansas city doesn't have any celebrities of their own so they have to steal Jon Hamm from wonderful St Louis

Anyone have fear fire foes, obsedian charmaw and a seasoned pyromancer at the NRG by chance

Spoke with the hospital to get actually numbers. Since I now have that, I'm gonna make and post this. I hate asking, but it's a thing that has to be done. I expect nothing and appreciate any generosity. www.gofundme.com/f/surgical-c...

**if we are vocal about it, which is a choice we have to make**, WOTC is going to run into a pretty big problem because there is a wave of successful professional players coming that VML fed. It straight up worked incredibly well. Sanctum’s PT team has kept growing & growing & growing

So is Kendrick gonna call Drake a pedophile to the whole country or is the NFL gonna stop that because they hate fun

This card is the backbone of all cool decks in standard, kinda the goat

After work traveling a lot this year and eating out a lot, I have strong feelings on the fact that restaurants do not seem to make vegetarian salads. Why are they always so meat focused

The kind of presents you get when you have a brand

Selling my mox opals a year ago is really making me remember why I never sell cards

I'm clearing 100 nights at Hilton hotels for the year. The most miserable Samantha wrapped stat of the year

An underrated quality in people is your ability to disagree

You know when your parents had fancy plates for guests and you didn't understand it at the time but then you got old and now you have fancy plates you reserve for guests that you love but your partner chipped one eating a sandwich and now you are mad and you've never felt closer to your parents

I learned some new terms for my music listening this year. I apparently am a big fan of "Vlog Mid-Temp Melodic Dubstep", "Dance Party Popping French House" and "Serotonin Throwback Pop EDM". Think we may be going a bit overboard on genres

It's wild watching kids oriented content with my cousins children because a lot of the content is really amazing stuff that I don't mind watching and the stuff they really love is the AI drivel on YouTube shorts

Microcenter is kinda the perfect store. I want more nerds who love the thing they are selling working on commission

I'm thankful for my friends I've met in magic 💕

The woman checking me out at the wine store wouldn't even look at my ID 😭

I am your 2024 North America Vintage Champion!!
