Magic Card of the Day: Squirming Emergence

Reanimation for 3 is generally great, but being able to get back non creatures is rare! Mid to late game bring back whatever you need to turn the tide! Also I love a bureaucratic rule around hats. #mtg

Magic Card of the Day: Creekwood Liege

Lords are great! Double Lords are incredible! Lords that make more and more bodies to boost are the best! Try this in your next token deck! #mtg

Magic Card of the Day: Harness Infinity

If you aren’t nice to Golgari, you’ll be sorry!

Look 7 mana is a lot for this, and it means you might need to wait till you can use it on the end step before turn but the art is so good and the effect is unique! I just want to find a home for it! #mtg

My darlings, I'm just a weird little time traveling queer out here drinking tea with my best friend @teagrandarbiter.bsky.social and yapping about our favourite nonsense. This week, we're delving into our @seattlein2025.org schemes!

But it’s made by a…less than compassionate anti trans artist, so there is a desire to get new art.

Magic Card of the Day: Cerebral Vortex

Gotcha cards are incredible. Your buddy just drew half their deck. They are grinning, pleased with thier dreams of a future turn, and you then make them pay for their hubris. A well timed vortex makes this card read “delete target player”. #mtg

Magic Card of the Day: Flame of Anor

There are so many gosh darn wizards the conditional requirement of choosing 2 is so easy. Getting two is sooooo much value that it can set you up to tilt the table in your favor. Feel like a wizard by doing exactly what you need exactly when you need to. #mtg

Magic Card of the Day: Mirror Sheen

Yes, I have an unhealthy nostalgia for Shadowmoor. What of it? You really have to build your deck with this effect in mind. Cards that are narrow like this are uncommon in Magic these days but they feel amazing when you get them to work. #mtg

Magic Card of the Day: Role Reversal

Swapping control of creatures is always bizarre but this can swap anything, including lands? Give away your worst thing and take your opponents best. #mtg

Magic Card of the Day: Nivmagus Elemental

Izzet that time again? Time for some RU nonsense! Someone Mana Drain on your big sorcery? Deny them the mana and grow this guy. Protect yourself from Hive Mind/Pact combo. Merely exile your copy before it resolves. Izzet if all about odd one of cards. #mtg

I agree! Also mechanically fascinating. It’s an incredibly unique card.

Magic Card of the Day: Wheel of Sun and Moon

When you just need to punish a single graveyard player, like @josephmschultz.bsky.social for example, or to protect yourself from mill, try this incredibly narrow solution that works great in enchantress. #mtg

Magic Card of the Day: Voice of Resurgence

Leave my turn alone! Each time someone casts on my turn, I make a */* proletariat elemental token! Power equal to the people or in this case power equal to my creatures! #mtg

Being a little weird artist is a daunting experience, but sometimes, I get to make magic with other artists. Thank you forever to @drslayton.bsky.social, @atimpson.bsky.social, @everiotartist.bsky.social & @tmkutawrites.bsky.social for creating magic with us!
