30 Years, Part 1 Mark rings in his 30th year working on Magic: The Gathering by exploring notable elements of sets he's been a part of.

It's my 30th anniversary, so I wrote a three-part #MakingMagic article about the top 30 design innovations added since I started working at Wizards. Today, is part #1: magic.wizards.com/en/news/maki... #mtg #WotCStaff

Yeah, I play Magic: the Gathering.

Picture of Rio, dressed as Waluigi, with a goofy expression.

Picture of a sealed costume set, a big white sticker that says “Purple Plumber”, along with the usual product descriptions

Mario Tennis was released 25 years ago (PAL region on this day, JP & NA earlier), and with that, my favorite character, Waluigi!!

I didn’t take a lot of pictures, but I did have a Halloween costume this year

Happy birthday, purple plumber (my favorite gender)

my other precious

Also the halfling

I pulled this

My precious

Lol

Very lucky so far!

The real ghouls of Halloween? Billionaires and corporate bootlicks

In August of 1993, I started playing Magic. In July of 1994, I started freelancing. And on October 30, 1995, exactly thirty years ago today, I started working at Wizards of the Coast. R&D made me a shirt to celebrate.

Uncolored Eldrazi Tron is very interesting, I think I'm going to start building that next

I want to try to get out to play Modern at my LGS after halloween I think! They do a Modern day on Sundays

Look at how she stares at me with those loving eyes and beaming smile. You know exactly what she's thinking without saying a word. My first Gaea's Cradle is arriving in the mail tomorrow! Cardboard-crack.com

That Look #MTG

when I realized I only milled 1 endurance out of 2 at the end

he had it in his HAND AAAAA

I also killed her from 76 with liliana and 2/2 zombies lol

Lol played endurance when @ikariosa.bsky.social had me at literally 0 cards in my deck, great value lmfao

petition to ban endurance in modern

no particular reason

Modern has been super interesting to engage with at the moment, been building an elves deck and a merfolk deck and thinking about getting out and playing

The elves deck is a bit of a meme but I love it lol

In my opinion it’s time to retire the Nobel prizes for fields where most of the important discoveries have already been made, like physics, and add prizes for newer fields where substantial innovations occur every year, like speedrunning
