Hi. My name is Jake and I love games. If you love games too, pull up a chair, have a seat at the table, and let's talk games.

I've seen a lot of chatter about the chonky cactus, but almost none for my new moogle friend. Obviously there's a lot of ridiculous things you can do when you donate stuff to your opponent, but this one is on color, has innate hexproof, and is standard legal!

I'm generally a fan of the new bracket system, but I fear the Mass Land Denial identifier is going to cause a lot of problems. There are going to be a lot of post-game complaints about how "you didn't tell me you were running MLD!" (More than usual) #magicthegathering #mtgcommunity #commander

I think at one point in time or another, we've all accidentally piled an opponent's card into our own at the end of a game. I strongly recommend a top loader, a dice, or something else to keep your cards clearly identified when they travel around the table.

This is one of my favorite combos of all time! When it fails, you are left with no permanents at all and when it succeeds you usually win on the spot. Just be sure you have a way to spend your infinite mana and get rid of your loop at instant speed or you draw the game. #magicthegathering

Do you ever get ahead in a game and then start to lose ground? Have I got the answer for you! Man lands, activated abilities, and whatever is left in play is the new name of the game. Drop this following an end of turn Overloaded Cyclonic Rift is usually a win. Just beware of Boseijus! #mtgcombo

One of my favorite combos over the last 20 years is still going strong in Premodern. With access to several angles, wishes for all combo pieces, and enough counters and bounce to control the board, it's an extremely flexible deck that wins out of nowhere!

Come one, come all! See the mysterious Hecatomb! It may look intimidating needing to sacrifice four creatures, but don't be alarmed! In response you can tap the same tapped swamp a million times to really make the sparks fly! #magicthegathering #combo #unhinged

I'm a big fan of reliable recursion and packages of cards that exist within a single set. Grab this in a draft and enjoy your infinite blocker or sacker!
Throw in Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim and let the real fun begin. It will always be an angel or a demon due to the way replacement effects work.

An imaginary organization's logo depicting a hand of magic cards championing the visibility of the decrease in reprints in recent years called "Save our Reprints". The movement is championed by other organizations such as the "Commander Reprint Proliferation Program", the "Blind Eternities Park Service, "Token Rights", and the "Brother's War Recovery Fund".

Every year since the first reprint in the Blind Eternities, we have seen their numbers diminish. According to a study published by the Blind Eternities Park Service annual reprint numbers have hit historic lows and are at risk of extinction due to elimination of their natural habitats, the Core Set.
