con-gratulations 😏 (but srsly congrats)
in-universe sets only get a handful of legendary creatures now because universes beyond needs 100+ legends every single set.
this is a healthy and normal thing that is unavoidable and not a symptom of larger issues! thank you for your attention to this matter!!!
i'm not a gambling man, but having worked with genesis before at cons, getting to see somebody's face when they open a mox is absolutely priceless.
i'm not big on vehicles but mighty servant of leuk-o is a card i've really come around on. a 6/6 with protection that draws 2 cards for 3 mana is pretty easy to justify in any deck that has a decent amount of incidental creatures.
happy birthday dude
most of my commander decks are the direct result of trying and failing to do something stupid in a 60 card format. it really boggles my mind that there are people who just jam edh and don't have any involvement with other ways of playing.
steph has brought this concept to my attention and negotiations on rights and ownership for this innovation are already underway.
i need you to know i am willing to arrange an extremely fair profit sharing agreement with you on this.
part of me feels like including this in my work portfolio is obviously a terrible idea, but another part of me wonders if the job application reviewers might not also be thrilled by the prospects of my daring innovations. 🐜 🌭 🤔
update: yeah this shit rules. 🤮
it's worth noting that these goals are all equally valid and that you could rearrange the paths into any order and it would be the same.
it's also worth noting that your goal does not dictate your experience. you can have fun and socialize on the path towards winning at all costs, etc.
to me the best approach to "power level" categorization looks weirdly similar to the planeswalker symbol. diverging paths with different destinations but the same starting point.
you can't go from one path to another without going back to the start and choosing a different goal to aim for.
🚨 banger alert 🚨
my bracket 1 all-horizontal edh deck has fetches and duals and is legitimately poop from a butt.
it's a factor. if you have a very powerful deck with the basics and taplands of a precon then you will often be a turn slower. my all-legendary deck has really bad mana which helps put it in bracket ~2. each list is different but lands can shift the balance. you can have a bracket 1 with duals tho.
the entirety of magic is just a long con to get people to watch star trek: below decks.
mtgstocks streamlined their website to make it look cleaner and i think it's a big downgrade. lighter rules, more white space, and subtle color indicator on price changes makes the page look smart and modern, but reduces legibility.👎
imo it's better to have sites that are ugly but functional.
love the little pestermite and conscript portraits.
i'm at the gorilla shaman. i'm at the plaguebearer.
i'm at the combination gorilla shaman and plaguebearer. 🦍🧟🔥
i still strongly believe that the 1-5 bracket progression is a huge disservice to the concept of edh. to me each bracket is more like a different genre. comedy isn't a watered down version of horror, they have different goals entirely. they exist parallel to one another.
an older woman in my rotary club announced this morning that her son was ordained as a minister and that her daughter was chosen to portray “yoshi the green dragon” at the super mario theme park. 🐉
real saint george type situation brewing.

when i'm desperate for something interesting i always look at options that can technically be run for less colors. selesnya kaust would at least be different.
wow i never noticed the archaic in this. i don’t think it’s tagged on scryfall.
i've played against ysholta and it is the blandest commander design i can imagine. the fact that it is so popular is legitimately kind of sad to me.
flubs is the complete opposite tho, it's weird and difficult to pilot. so it's surprising that it is ranked alongside so many boring generic options.
yes, they still do some physical test prints. we saw some prototypess of sothera in the eoe teaser video. only the bottom left version made it to print. for regular cards that don't involve novel printing techniques they probably just do a few sheets as proofs and a few that become prize wall items.
pteron would qualify if it wasn't for the legacy legal criteria.
like all llm based products, this isn't for anybody. it exists exclusively to fleece investors.
i realize it's not important but the inaccurate representation of the newton's cradle really bothers me. the swinging ball on the end is much too high given the depicted spacing.
you have a point. there are only ~28 cards with firebending tho, so it's not a huge burden. only 5 of them don't have a red color identity tho, so i guess it cuts both ways.
