The 6 month old is bopping along to Dookie, proving once and for all that Green Day is for babies

Tyler hits with Infiltrate and banishes Sirens of Safe Harbor, then attacks with it. When the combat chain closes, what happens next? #fabtcg #fabjudges

At Nationals, Jo checks Tyler's card-pool after they have presented. Tyler uses a 2-compartment deckbox: an extra deck in one side, the inventory of the current deck being played left in the other. What is the proper procedure? (Photo © John Brian McCarthy) #fabtcg #fabjudges

At Nationals, Tyler looks at a card in Nic's graveyard that was turned face-down two turns ago, unaware this is against the rules. What is the remedy? (Photo © John Brian McCarthy) #fabtcg #fabjudges

The answer is C — Tyler must take the first turn. Per TRP 3.3, if a player who must choose who goes first looks at the cards in their opening hand before making that choice, they are required to take the first turn. #fabtcg #fabjudges

At an Armory, Tyler wins the die roll and must choose who takes the first turn. Before declaring their choice, they peek at their opening hand. What happens next? #fabtcg #fabjudges

What's the BEST thing about judging at a Pro Tour? 🌸 #fabtcg #fabyokohama

Pro Tour Yokohama blessed us with some of the best games to feature on coverage to date. I had the privilege to delve deeper into some of the decklists we saw, and a few off camera. Which was your favourite deck from the Pro Tour? #fabtcg

#fabtcg What was the hardest rule or game concept for you to learn when you first learned fab? (Not strategy- blocking isn't real)

I'm not sure if I did before and don't remember, or if I actually never posted this one thinking it didn't come out. Either way, here's Flourish, painted a while back for @fabtcg.com's 1st Strike - Terra. AD: Robbie Wen, Sam Yang

Dug the old flower bed out to fill the ditch and feeling pretty good about it

Putting the Glam in Glame Rules Violation

Tyler plays Blood on her Hands, choosing each mode twice(1x each for each of two Cintari Sabers(A and B). They attack with A, then B, and then A a second time. On the 3rd attack, Nic plays Tiger Trap. When Tyler attacks with B a second time, how much will it attack for? #fabtcg #fabjudges

Martin is a wonderful artist that I am lucky enough to live near! I am thrilled they took on this commission, and am filled with warm spring thoughts when I see what a fantastic job they did. Play the game, see the world, and fall in love with it in whatever way makes it your own! #fabtcg

Tyler activates Gold-Baited Hook and then Attacks with Scooba, Salty Sea Dog. In response to Scooba's attack trigger, Nic discard Ripple Away and declares no blocks. Tyler bottoms a Yellow card from their grave. Which is most correct if Scooba hits? #fabtcg #fabjudges

Tyler plays Avast Ye! and then attacks with Riggermortis. Nic plays Tripwire Trap. What happens next? #fabtcg #fabjudges

Been working on this on and off for a personal project, finally getting to something I feel happier with. Currently rigging (wish me luck) ~2500 tris, 256x256 textures

Tyler attacks Nic with a spectral shield that has a +1{a} counter on it, using Cosmo, Scroll of Ancestral Tapestry and controls no other ward. In reactions, Nic plays Reckless Swing, discarding a Wild Ride (red). What happens next? #fabtcg #fabjudges

Policy Time! In a ProQuest in Sealed Super Slam, you discover on turn 3 that Tyler presented a 29-card deck. What do you do? #fabtcg #fabjudges (Photo © John Brian McCarthy)

The good answer is B. Horrors of the past will get the base abilities of Creep during trigger resolution in the Attack Step (7.2.5) which is strictly after the point that triggers from attacking (7.2.4), so the inherited base ability never triggers. #fabtcg #fabjudges

Reread a quick write up I did a month ago and am appalled at the level of baby brain on display. To everyone I've interacted with in the last 4 months: I swear I'm just very very tired

The good answer is B. Since Compass of Sunken Depths does not have a {d} property, it doesn't not meet the condition to destroy it by AotD: Scale #fabtcg #fabjudges

Tyler attacks with Art of the Dragon: Scale, after playing Brand with Cinderclaw (red). it hits Nic, who has Compass of Sunken Depths Equipped. Which of these is most true? #fabtcg #fabjudges

The answer is A. GRV 2.1: warn the player. If caught immediately, do a simple rewind. If later actions occurred, try a partial fix; if that’s not possible, rewind. If neither works, leave the game as is and, if a significant advantage was gained, upgrade to IP2. #fabtcg #fabjudges
