Judge question: at the end of five turns and there isn't a winner, is it allowed to use both hands and battlefields to determine a winner (assuming a draw is bad for both players)?

Another rcq another event we are calling up friends to try and hit 8. This is pathetic.

Good points here. Mono Red rising quickly and many tournaments don't feature the homogenized Vivi metagame we see on coverage. I often see sentiment at the LGS level about being tired of the best deck without having ever played against it.

Split top 4 of RCQ with Dimir. Riddler was a cool transformational sideboard plan I came up with later in the week when red decks have a bunch of removal for small creatures. Lost top 4 when we played it.

Definitely have that brewing itch flowing. Serum Powder/Cosmogoyf/Slime Against Humanity ftw. Decklist in ALT #riwhobbies @riwhobbies.bsky.social @fireshoes.bsky.social

But but but the games are so good.

Just reiterating that Standard rotation *in paper* occurred with the Edge of Eternities prerelease yesterday. Be extremely careful of trusting sites that display legality, because they may be set for online rotation, which happens on Tuesday for Arena and MTGO. 😅

Magic taught me to read, get the job I've had for twelve years, and introduced me to my wife.

Going to draw into top 8 of the rcq. Coming off three top 4s in a row. Will see how far psychic frog carries me this time. Changed 1-2 cards from my sideboard guide. Continues to impress.

riwhobbies.com/dimir-frogti... I continue to go on crazy win streaks with Frogtide so I'm bringing a free updated sideboard guide! There are a few weeks left of the modern RCQ season to put it into practice. Shares and reads appreciated as always =)

I've created a spreadsheet compiling any free written MTG primers/guides/sideboard guides that I come across. I love the sharing of knowledge that happens in this community and want to do my part! docs.google.com/spreadsheets... #mtg #mtgguides @fireshoes.bsky.social for exposure pretty please 🥹

Had a blast playing some spice in Modern tonight on stream. #RIWHobbies @riwhobbies.bsky.social @fireshoes.bsky.social

THERE IS GOLD IN THE @mtgarena.com STORE! #STONKS

Into top 4 of row rcq with the frogtide deck I wrote about. Bear two energy and esper ketramos. Three strong pilots so far and I got to make some sweet plays each round.

2-0 in this rcq with izzet prowess. Cast both thoughtseize and pending post board round one. Tormods crypt ate a pick your poison to save cori steel. Wilding.

Izzet is cool but Gruul is Gruul. Live in 5! twitch.tv/ross_merriam

I would like to see more tournament promos help alleviate supply-constrained uncommon prices. There are far too many cases of 8-10 dollar uncommons.

Split finals of local Modern with updated Frogtide. The singletons all felt pretty strong. Edict answers Ugin, Ketramose, Tamiyo, Grist, Kappa.

I've been fighting off the flu this week, going to cancel tonight's stream. I'll be back at it next week with a couple new brews. In the meanwhile enjoy my new favorite modern deck. #riwhobbies @riwhobbies.bsky.social moxfield.com/decks/J70WqV...

Manufacturing is coming back to the US starting with global recessions.

As much as I would like a Jace in the sideboard to be right I think it should be another Kaito.

If I played a Domain mirror in Standard I would likely intentionally draw game one to have enough time for three games (they play out faster post board). What is the current procedure after a game one intentional draw?

Great B&R update. Breach clearly had to go. Cool to see a big shakeup in Pauper, too.

I don't typically listen to magic podcasts but I gave this a try and you should, too.

riwhobbies.com/dimir-frogti... Modern Frogtide article is up! @Mengu09 gave the 75 a spin on his Youtube channel as well (link in article). RTs appreciated =)

www.twitch.tv/starcitygames Excited for the RC coverage this weekend. Corey and Jim is a great pair in the booth. Especially when Breach is going to be featured often and you have a master walking us through.

Split the finals of local Modern. Katio was awesome and the list was chunky enough to keep up with BW.

I didn't care about too many game franchises when I was little, but was a big fan of Final Fantasy. Finally a product that's actually for me.

This is the most important time for VML to exist so far. Bring it back.

riwhobbies.com/standard-gol... In an era of $15 sideboard guides I offer one for free! I go through 8 matchups with the 75 I used to split top 4 of RIW's RCQ. Reskeets appreciated as always =)

Picked up a nice one at RIW yesterday.

Split top 4 of RIW's RCQ with Golgari. The key performers were the maindeck cards that typically belong in the sideboard. Went undefeated on the day and felt a cut above.

riwhobbies.com/golgari-midr... New Standard Golgari Midrange article on RIW! I split the finals of an RCQ last weekend and am running the archetype back at RIW's RCQ this weekend. Reskeets appreciated =)

Split finals of local Modern. This 75 felt very good. Less mulls than the stock build. Two Trespassers and Subtlety in the board allowed for a pretty serious pivot away from the graveyard when needed.
