really really bad run this weekend in prague. after thoroughly engaging with standard since i started playing and the release of the very first strixhaven set i think im finally ready to take a long long break from this format 🫡

alien rewatch number i don't even know. no one shoots models this well. what trust.

feeling good about my deck for the RC this weekend. missing some pieces and im still worried about my pace of play (wonder what im on 🤔) but the list im running feels really really clean

🤑🤑🤑

ended a busy weekend by watching project hail mary with some buddies which was very 👍

made another top 8 with sultai living end, but this time i lost to affinity in the finals instead of quarters 😂😂😂

i think this will *just about* fix my elo after my horrific run in the main event. here's hoping circumstances in prague will be much better 🤞

4-2 in the limited qualifier over the weekend. very happy with my pool overall. could have played cleaner maybe but its sealed so its wtv i think. felt amazing into white aggro decks but i paired into so many jeskai control decks the games i played in were really close

crapped out in the spotlight series event today. played elusive otter prowess which i think was the correct choice, the only issue is after testing with friends on the friday and not getting much sleep i ended up playing on autopilot and made a lot of stupid mistakes. honestly really disappointed 🫤

technically two separate lists! i played a version with eldritch evolution + atraxa on the sat and a more stock list on the sunday. i placed about the same in both events (3-1-1) but the event on the saturday had a few no-shows so we only had a top 4 cut 🥀 matchups for both days below 👇

4-0'd our weekly with sultai living end. i was a little bit off on the consistency of the list before after getting more copies of formidable speakers i think that really helped. but the eldritch evolution package felt sweet into its worst matchups. 2 rcqs this weekend so ill post the list then 👍

alien rpg is amazing! my head has been buzzing after every session, and we're not even finished yet! i really think it's given me that feeling i used to get in my early days of playing dnd and then some. can't wait to see what free league has left in store for this new edition!!!

waow

probably cope in living end but i really really wanna try it so my force of negations make me feel something 🤤

bringing back converge for a set based on the clashing leylines of a plane, after a set where you made vivid a core mechanic is so fucking sick, actually

oops is a fun deck. 😊👍

If you work with Shahar Shenhar, I won't work with you.

modern locals tonightttt 🥳🥳🥳

FIRST TIME OSCAR WINNER JESSIE BUCKLEY See the full winners list: bit.ly/OscarWins26

won a smaller RCQ with mono red aggro. its been a while since i felt like i could play this deck again after the nemesis ban so im happy that the first time i do i end up winning the event after months of trying to qualify. obligatory @fireshoes.bsky.social 🫡 matchups below 👇

🗣️ “As an Irishman, he should be absolutely ashamed.” Kneecap rapper Mo Chara has criticised the Taoiseach’s planned St Patrick’s Day visit to the White House to meet Donald Trump. It comes after judges ruled Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh will not face a new terror trial. #VMNews

ive not been a big vorthos guy since MOM but as someone who was concerned with the fact that they killed off the majority of strixhavens faculty i think its p elegant for them to introduce the colorshifted planeswalkers as the replacements. might even sort out kasmina's story but rlly who knows lol

whywhywhy are we now blaming content creators on a poor tmnt prerelease turnout? i thought that was wotcs job? not everyone is a millennial who is hyped about this set with, lets face it, a lot of very uninspired designs. let them make a bad bet without making all these sour ass sanctimonious posts

we can't be precious about magic's future when every single decision nowadays is rooted in the collective past of an aging demographic

its funny about that excruciator match bc in game 2 after a mull to six and having been hit with a deceit on turn 2 i was left with a stock up, fabled passage and two lands in hand with a lantern in play (cont.)

4-1 today in a relatively small store champs. after swiss we ended up splitting 4 ways. id like to thank whoever at @sanctumofall.bsky.social built this harmonizer deck. games were sick. didnt dropped a game after losing round 1. i turn 4d ppl 3 times in 5 rounds. vibes were good, deck was busted 😂

so funny how the promos Wizards choose for RCs and RCQs are relevant specially a year prior to their release, and are usually banned into oblivion before falling into the hands of the players that win them

im not ready for the type of person i will become when this set hits shelves. i dont think anybody is

harbouring violent thoughts about a certain badgermole cub

you can tell how much i love magic by how much i hate it

hasbro continues to partner with companies and franchises whose futures are brimming with light

ran the new Alien RPG scenario rapture protocol last night. but despite being very out of sorts since new years and it being my first time actually running the game it was a super smooth and engaging experience. the quality of the handouts and stress mechanics were the biggest highlights for sure 🔥🚀

GRIS #art

oh neat looks like I can share this back cover art now for the Strixhaven: Omens of Chaos book for Magic The Gathering

back from my much deserved break from standard to say that anyone running more than one copy of this card in their simic jackal deck have no clue what they're doing

this birthing ritual deck is hot garbage tbh played out of my mind in antwerp after teching for prowess and ended up still only getting 2-3 in the main event with a 0-2 start. lost to prowess in 5th round bc even after endurancing him 3 times he still had the nut draw of double cutter for lethal 😂

cooking some insane shit for the RC next week. praying it works out 🙏🙏🙏

post-ban discourse will never get old
