$2 a starter deck……..do I have a problem about buying this game?

being without internet for over 24hrs put a wrench in my editing process. Slight delay on this week’s podcast, but expect it late Friday/early Saturday.

Hey everyone having some computer issues tonight podcast release will be delayed till Saturday at the earliest. Thanks for hanging in there!

Does any one else miss when launching a game from desktop shortcuts actually opened the game instead of a platform launcher? I already gave you my money for the game, just let me play it.

With a lot of long time Pioneer staples at all time lows thanks to the lack of competitive focus ($5 for Thoughtseize is crazy!!!!), what cards are you going to stock up on ahead of the format’s return?

Very disappointed that I was able to make a showing myself, but very excited to see the new wave of people finally giving Speed Racer the appreciation it deserves. Excited to get my 4k Blu-Ray in a few weeks

Apparently Hasbro used to offer replacement helmets for this figure since they messed up the helmet head…..turns out they stop offering those 5 years later, not my best line work but I think it turned out well considering how the helmet is actually molded.

Heads up it’s my anniversary today (4 years already 🙀), so this week’s episode won’t be edited till tomorrow meaning a weekend release. It’s going to be worth the wait though, there’s a point Inthink I caused @manaricflair.bsky.social actual psychic damage.

Very fun episode this week where we were joined by a very special guest! Shame they didn’t really say much at all on the episode……..

The boys have been sick the past few days, but we were able to record a quick podcast about our amazing weekend at @HBM_TO and some pre-BNR thoughts. Episode will be out this weekend!

Hoping to find my foil Hallowed Fountains this weekend to finish my baby! Really wish I could get an alt art/borderless Rattlechains/Supreme Phantom

Made it to DFW ahead of this weekend’s events! Had an hour before my hotel checkin so I stopped by Holocron in Ft. Worth and picked this cool Droids cartoon coloring of Boba Fett and this Emperor Palpatine figure with coin for my Power of the Force collection

As crap as this game was to play, it does have a sweet playmat.

This list was hard to narrow down, and I definitely had to leave a few cards on the cutting room floor, but I think these definitely encapsulate my time in Magic! #My9MTGCards

Turning my @quivertime.com Bolt into a FAB Silver Age battle box. Was able to fit all 4 of my decks double sleeved and I think I could for sure fit one maybe 2 more! Plenty of options for pickup games and local.

Biiiiiiiiiig cube update incoming! Already updated the cube cobra page with the Boros Equipment update, the rest of the changes will be updates very soon!

Forgot to share one of my favorite birthday pickups fro the other week! Stopped by a local LGBTQ book store and snagged their last anniversary edition of Nimona……Netflix give me a blu-ray already!!!!!!!

Forgot to post this a couple weeks ago, went vintage toy hunting hand happened to stumble on one of my personal grail’s I’ve been looking for! Box is a little crunched up in one of the corners, but Like is still in its hand so we’ll take it! Bonus the store was moving so got it for 50% off!

LGS owners, the store champ promos this set are very popular, valuable, and desirable. Please be prepared for higher than normal turnouts, and plan accordingly. Sincerely, someone who had a panic attack from sensory overload and had to drop because of the noise in a small store

While Texas thaws out, let me remind you that this weekend we have a double header of Pioneer events! First up is a celebration of the format and one of the best podcast cohosts around…..the Spotlight: Ricky! melee.gg/Tournament/V...

Hearing people throwing a fit about Prince Adam’s cubicle name tag include his pronouns in the Masters of the Universe trailer is bafflingly hilarious. It’s He-Man, his name is already a pronoun!

Team “R”uckman is ready for world domination!

Want to win this awesome champion ring and a to be disclosed every increasingly ridiculous trophy? Join us January 31 for the Spotlight Series: Ricky!!! melee.gg/Tournament/V...

Apologies, I went right to bed after editing the podcast and forgot to upload it to our hosting service. Keep an eye out for it later today!

Reminder that we’re helping host an amazing double header of Pioneer events at the end of the month in Central Texas. These are events are going to be a blast if you can make it! melee.gg/Tournament/V...

Vasilios Nikolaou brought Boros Dragons to Magic Spotlight: The Avatar in Atlanta! "I love going against the grain, and I thought this was a good opportunity to get in and shake things up a little bit," he said.

Early birthday gift to myself, traded some cardboard in for a spaceship!

Played “the Crew3” team deck with @manaricflair.bsky.social yesterday to a 3-2 finish. Deck felt strong but had some bad openers. Bought a wearable camera mount to try out a new way to make some content with, going for sure mess with the idea some more. Also sick yolo OTJ Pack.

Got to stop at the AMAZING Toy Federation in Greer SC on part of our drive back to Texas today. Didn’t have a ton of time to dig around, but snagged these. Will definitely need to make it a point to be able to spend more time there next time we’re in the area! (Vintage Wampa is my son now)

Reminder that there’s no podcast this week, buuuuuuut you can still vote for the 2025 Crew3 Awards we’ll be going over on our first episode in the New Year!!!! forms.gle/YjwT3DMNtmC6...

Oh, we’re just gonna speed run Lorrowyn Spoilers huh? Maybe we’ll finally get to see some of Strixhaven soon since they keep showing us every set but it.

Getting to go live and determine our 2025 SAVIOR OF PIONEER! www.twitch.tv/crew3mtg (5-min delay)

Can’t wait to give @manaricflair.bsky.social and @captain1nsano.bsky.social their Christmas gifts so I finally post them here, they’re great.

There are two wolves within me this standard season…….

Outside of magic and warhammer on of my favorite casual hobbies is hunting for weird/random action figures when my wife goes out thrifting. Usually I buy stuff from when I was a kid, which is why I think PoF is THE BEST Star Wars figure line, but sometimes I see things I can’t resist………like this guy

I think the schadenfreude around Pioneer has been the hardest thing this year. It’s an echo chamber of negativity for people with nothing to gain. Meanwhile wizards is just surprise Pikachu face when numbers are down on a format they refuse to run events for.

Being sick, editing episode 300, and preparing for extra life are taking a toll this weekend……..buuuuuuuut it’s all going to be worth it!

Recording episode 300 this week was a crazy experience. Something wouldn’t have been possible without our amazing community and the love and support of my two best friends who agreed to record a podcast with me SIX years ago! Gonna be delayed release because it’s a big one, thanks for understanding

I was joking when I said they were going to give Huey 5minutes for an announcement and then spend the rest of the time talking about why your commander deck is a seven……….this game is cooked.

Sorry Pioneer, but it’s time for real gamer hours. BO JACKSON BATTLE ARENA 10K
