#MTGTarkir Preview Card πŸ“£

πŸ€πŸ–€πŸ’š

I know intimately that life will sometimes set us back.

And I know just as well that when it does, it also sets us up to come back stronger than ever before.

Perennation is a mythic that mirrors my own journey.

For that, I am so grateful to share it with you.

Every single year my anxiety brain tells me that this is the year no one turns out...and every single year we break the previous year's record.

Together, we raised half a million dollars for @translifeline.bsky.social!πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

Why are there only two Commander decks for Aetherdrift??

Today I dig into this question I've been getting a lot (tell me what you think about it!) and share a bit about how we designed the decks.

Come watch! youtu.be/lc49Agb9u9o

It is currently -4 F/ -20 C in Ithaca, NY.

Which means it is the time of year when I ask myself this:

We are sad to announce that we have been told by Wizards that they will no longer support the VML program with either funding or invites to Organized Play events. 

Without this support - especially the invites - it is impossible for the league to continue, and there will be no more VML seasons going forward.

Over the past five years, we’ve radically changed competitive Magic for the better. When we started the program with 26 players back in Season 1, we never thought that we would end up having served hundreds of competitors and with over a thousand people in our community. We have sent cohorts of people to the Set Championships, Regional Championships, and Pro Tour. As a result of our program, representation of people of marginalized genders at the highest levels of play has multiplied from a handful at each event to over twenty who will play at PT Chicago. Several of our team members and players have gone on to be hired to work at Wizards. 

We are also proud of the change we’ve created in the broader sense. The Magic community is a much more diverse, vibrant, and inclusive place than it was five years ago. The gender balance at in-person events has improved significantly, and the overall image of the game has changed for the better. We don’t claim to have caused all of that, but we are happy knowing our efforts have played a part. 

We want to thank all the organizations who have worked with us and supported the cause: Good Luck High Five, Lodestone Coffee, NRG, Team Arclight, MTG Melee, BOP!, and the many wonderful creators, personalities, and players who have contributed. 

To everyone who has been a part of the team here: you have all been brilliant, and without your passion and dedication we would not have made it this far. Every single one of you has gone above and beyond, giving your time and effort generously to the program and you should be extremely proud of yourselves. 

Finally, to our awesome community: we’re sorry that we couldn’t keep this projec…

Three copies of the Magic Aetherdrift card "Loot, the Pathfinder". Loot has three "exhaust" abilities that can each only be used once. Green adds one mana, Blue draws 3 cards and Red deals 3 damage to any target.

The first card has an InfiniTokens dry erase card sticking out from behind it with "R U G" written up top. The G is partially erased.

The second Loot has an InfiniTokens dry erase tag on top of it that has three mana symbols drawn across it: A green tree, a blue water drop and a red flame. The tree and water drop are crossed out.

The third card has a red and a blue InfiniTokens dry erase counter on it, with a green counter off to the side.

Keeping track of what abilities you have already spent doesn't have to be exhausting: Use some InfiniTokens dry erase cards, tags or counters! Whatever your style, you won't have to remember the entire time the card is in play.

Which one would you try?

Vnwxt and his borderless printing. Vnwxt is a homunculus announcer for the race and is an 0/4 for 1 and a Blue mana. Vnwxt has "Start your engines!" and the following abilites: You have no maximum hand size. Max Speed - If you would draw a card, draw two cards instead.

They're the host with the most and are always verbose, introducing Vnwxt! Not only does he look excellent in his borderless version but here are two new #MTGAetherdrift mechanics!

Reminder: the Mechanics article will go live on DailyMTG.com right after the WeeklyMTG Aftershow!
