Especially since sites like untapped are probably far more damaging to that than MTGO lists.

I'm ignorant on the reasons why MTGO decklist data needs to be restricted. What are the pros/cons of doing so?
Pros: Formats don't get solved as quickly? More time for an innovative deck to break it?
Cons: Players not on a testing team won't have as much access to tuned lists?

Collector's Box #1 with GW Kithkin!
Best cards:
Eclipsed kithkin, moonlit lamenter, formidable speaker, dundoolin weaver, spiral into solitude
Even got to backdoor UU off formidable speaker and great forest druid to cast wistfulness

Hallowed fountain was kind of sick, can help cast and be grabbed by kithkin

Finished out the day with ANOTHER 5-0, bringing me up to 18-0 in last 4 sealed events, including 2 preliminary events.
Deck is in replies if you want to see pool.
Worst 3 cards were the changelings, frequently boarded them out for unnerving aim or perfect intimidation

sealeddeck.tech/6VUdiePWH7 here is the list
4/2 elf was boarded in a few times

Another 5-0 trophy in ECL sealed, I believe people are limiting themselves to two colors when there really isnt a need to.
Replied to this post is the sealeddeck to play with the build on your own

4-0ed a sealed prelim with this, feeling more confident in Lorwyn Eclipsed sealed.
Play naturalize effects main deck, tons of busted uncommon/rare targets
3-4 color is normal, games are slow and ham sandwiches can block 3/1s people have that are "aggro" decks.

I set my alarm for 1 hour and miracle of miracles today, it worked.

AC10 is tomorrow and Dimir Reanimator was my choice for the event! Looking to be a field full of Energy decks, which I believe to be a good matchup.
Went 12-1 in tonight's testing at rank 14 mythic, so feeling as prepared as I've ever been. #AC10

7-1 for first box in Arena Direct
Rares + Jelly is a consistent combination

Darkest_Mage - Twitch High level Magic: The gathering Constructed and Limited player. Also play casual RPGs.

Top 8 draft of sealed 500+ person RCQ starts in 10 minutes. It is on a 10 minute delay

Something to keep in mind with The Unagi of Kyoshi Island ward trigger, if they need to tap permanents, you can destroy them in response and the ward will counter the spell/ability.

Split finals of limited challenge with 4 color. Indoctrination and Cruelty overperformed, second metalbending and toph were awful.
Boarded in the cards on the right for those two depending on what I saw g1. @fireshoes.bsky.social

Any knowers out there know whether deathrite works with badgermole cub? I suspect not.

I instantly signed up for this, this seems great!

Got there 7th try in arena qualifier. Almost every pool from me and opponents was 4 color soup (not red, lol).

I've not seen how to even sign up for streamer events, do you happen to know?

Got there day 2 in the Arena Qualifier!
No info up on when or where or what format it is, but it looks like I'm playing in Arena Championship 10!

7-2 to make day 2 of the Arena Qualifier! Combo killed with Harmonizer a couple of times, Haliya valued the other ones out.

Got the easiest 7-0 for two boxes in Arena direct with this 4 color rare masterpiece. Won most matches by milling half their deck, then using requiem on their flier and then cut propulsion them, forcing them to draw 8 and deck out.

Two busted sealeds to win day 1 arena open and arena qualifier!

Thanks for the big raid after the broadcast! Finished the weekend of arena directs on a heater, winning three out of the last four attempts!
Matches: 86 - 57 (60.1%)
Total Events: 31 (5 Trophies)
$$$ Spent: 636
Boxes go for about 400 on tcgplayer, so maybe 325 IRL? @mtgarena.com

Been testing a lot of sealed in prep for the collector's boxes this weekend, this is the weirdest one yet. All fates scroll saved for 5 and 6, and each of the planets picked up wins. I think sealed is about going as big as possible with a bunch of removal and 18 lands.

Is innkeeper's talent viable here? I saw some other lists with shoopuf and the springbloom fellow (though maybe the new spacecraft is better?)

Took the Nautilus, ended up very open and easily 7-1ed!
I think the 3 drop I already have is so good with it (t3, t4 lander, turn 5 play it) that it makes sense. I think all are good choices though!

Still early in the format for me, what is the pick? First pack was bad, so no info there.

Got 4 boxes today in arena direct with these two decks. Should give some good ideas to those looking to play on what your decks should look like.
Qiqirn merchant was the best card in the UB deck, Sin was the best in the other.

On the eighth try, got there with UB splashing jenova. Had some really tight plays and also topdecked venos vs crystal's chosen in the final game.
