People complain about all sorts of stuff on here but this is actually a big scandal. Brand your tournament as "Arena Limited Championship", promise swiss rounds + coverage, rake tons of qualifier entries, then casually drop that it has no prizes? Very much hope this is just a miscommunication.

It's too late to learn Amulet 😢

I have been working tirelessly the past week to make this happen and it is now done. I put all my pro tour limited expertise into a SOS guide! If you want to succeed at LTQs, Arena Qualifier or just enjoy drafting at FNM or want to get insight into @handshakemtg.com limited ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Give Grixis Reanimator a try if you're looking for something different in standard - I worked hard on the list and almost played it at the PT! moxfield.com/decks/H9fksh... @handshakemtg.com @moxfield.com

8-8, one win short of an Amsterdam invite. It's been real 🫡

3-0ed draft we're so back

Sitting down for the pt draft never gets old!

After I 0-3ed two straight day 1 pt drafts the team staged an intervention

It's the night before Pro Tour deck submission and spirits are high at the Handshake testing house! @moxfield.com

watching rory crush has me fired up for the pt. time to get to work!

Modern is hot right now with a showcase tomorrow and RCQ season just a week away! I spent some time this week tuning affinity, here's my recommended build.

Magic online is doing no-banlist modern this week. I was enjoying it a lot until my Chrome Mox got shut off by Mycosynth Lattice 😠

ok will krueger is a VERY close second. what a sick rc season!

Relived my modo grinder era for a day. These big online sealed events will always be my favorite.

Many people have been asking me questions about the Spellementals deck The Boulder played to a 72% winrate at the PT. If you want to know of all our secrets for $20 see the below deck guide: t.co/TOYOfUGea9

This guy has only been playing magic for THREE years. He's unreal!

Good luck to Guglielmo Lupi in the top 8 today! His last four tournaments: - MOCS 1st - RC Antwerp 2nd - Spotlight Lyon t8 - PT Lorwyn t8 We are so proud to have this rising star on our team 💪 🤝 @moxfield.com

Congratulations to Tristan Wylde-LaRue, the US Regional Champion from #SCGPortland!

Nobody in magic easier to root for than @tristan-mtg.bsky.social!

Batsignal for 2 Oko, 2 Wistfulness, and 1 Formidable Speaker in Portland for the RC. Prefer foil, but ya know, anything works. 😅

I graded all the decks I played last year! @handshakemtg.com @moxfield.com 🔗 medium.com/@tangrams/20...

Hi @ajlvi.bsky.social who has the highest winrate for each of these since PT Phyrexia? (let's say minimum 6/9 PTs played) 🙏

As a Magic year, 2025 has been... surprising? With Universes Beyond rapidly spreading and eating at the game's identity, so much that even some "normal" sets (DFT, EoE) begin to feel hollow and disconnected, I still enjoy learning new draft environments and finding cube gems here and there...

hard to recapture that Christmas morning feeling as a 30-something, but waiting to open a mocs open pool gets pretty close!

My run last month was supposed to give me a direct entry into day 2 of this month's Arena qualifier. Woke up this morning to play and didn't have an entry, wrote to support with 3h left to enter and got ghosted. Really sad how far Arena OP has fallen in the last year.

Stuck around for an extra week after Thanksgiving to catch worlds live. Had a blast cheering everyone on and feeling fired up for Richmond now. See y'all there 🫡

Not qualified this year but still making big contributions to the team (reminding them to eat and forcing them to go outside)

10 years ago I was in college, I'd wake up at noon every Saturday and put GP coverage on one monitor, SCG coverage on the other. Nice to relive that for a weekend!

Help Paul!

Sharing my favorite brew from PT EOE testing. Retract pairs great with Weapons Manufacturing, procs all the munitions tokens and picks up your artifacts to make more. I jammed a few leagues this week and had some sick wins, give it a try! moxfield.com/decks/x3U0Zb...

My friend Dan wrote a great summary of the organizational issues with the Arena Qualifiers. wotc has announced they plan to hold arena qualifiers for their Limited World Championship. Things need to improve before then. nosferatumtg.blogspot.com/2025/11/is-a...

2 wins off the invite in the historic qualifier playing @tristan-mtg.bsky.social lotus breach. Weird format of mostly modern cards + a few niche legacy bangers. Probably some broken deck out there - I had fun trying and failing to find it! moxfield.com/decks/5cwLVa...

made day 2 of the arena qualifier, opened the client 20min before the window was supposed to open just in case something was screwy with daylight savings. Good thing I did because there were only 20 minutes left to enter??? Hundreds of players are gonna get locked out because of this @mtgarena.com

I love baseball

Hey Bluesky (that's when you'd like to be on Twitter I guess), in case there are still some unused Vivi Ornitier in the world, I'm missing three of them for Spotlight Series Liverpool this week-end!

Stayed up until 2am Friday night watching the Mariners clinch the alcs, concluded the only reasonable option was to cancel all my plans and make the drive to Toronto to see them live. Had an incredible weekend and made it home just in time for game 2!

you know it was a good magic tournament when you come home to 12 wholly unorganized stacks of cards strewn across your desk

For PT EOE I brought a weird build of Affinity and took it to a 7-3 finish! Here's my guide to the deck: 🔗 moxfield.com/decks/W88OoM... Big thank you to @tristan-mtg.bsky.social and @stefanschuetzmtg.bsky.social for their help in reimagining this archetype

Rollercoaster weekend for me. Started 0-3, ran it up to 10-4 to give myself a shot at worlds, then lost the last two rounds to miss. Still processing everything but happy to walk away with 2 more PT invites. Very happy with the affinity choice. Deck guide + tournament report coming soon.

0-3 draft but rallied in modern to make day 2. More memnite beatdowns tomorrow! #PTEOE

Third we have 3 players on Affinity. The Handshake take on this archetype omits typical inclusions Thought Monitor and Metallic Rebuke in favor of more cheap artifacts. moxfield.com/decks/5kgug7... @tangrams.bsky.social @apfriedr.bsky.social @tristan-mtg.bsky.social

For tomorrow's Pro Tour I'm playing a very sentimental card. This Mox Opal carried me to day 2 in my first ever Grand Prix - Modern Masters sealed - over 10 years ago! Some cards just stay with you.

🤝

Testing is underway at the Handshake @moxfield.com house!

The Seattle Mariners have unlocked a new winning methodology in pro sports ❌ Invest capital to build out infrastructure across analytics, player development, sports science etc. ✅ Pay a witch on Etsy $15 to cast a fortification spell on the team

9 hours later and it's time to draft!

battling it out in the biggest mocs open i can remember! good luck to all 482 sickos

couldn't quite get there. pool was nothing special

Made day 2 with the Interceptor Mechan special!
