Two days ago I qualified for worlds and it means a lot to me. I have been playing professional Magic for 11 years, I have never played worlds, not even after I won the Pro Tour. I play Magic for glory, and there is no stage more glorious than the World Championship. See everyone in Atlanta!

If it’s not too late, please @magic.wizards.com do not make people who had years and years of HoF eligibility eligible again without multiple new top finishes. Let’s focus on how great JED is not whether Wyatt Earp really did clean up the game in 1988 or whatever.

I don't know what the cards I like say about me anymore, but I put some of them in this thing. Certainly I have become more of a Temur mage as of late.

Many people have been asking me questions about the Spellementals deck The Boulder played to a 72% winrate at the PT. If you want to know of all our secrets for $20 see the below deck guide: t.co/TOYOfUGea9

PAUL'S DAILY DRAFT I went 1-5 in draft at #PTECL after registering maybe the best standard deck in the history of the Pro Tour. If I'm going to keep trying to win at the top level I have no choice but to really do everything I can to finally get good at limited.

For many years I have said that any Pro Tour where my team plays multiple distinct decks I consider a personal failure. For this Pro Tour, for the first time ever, we succeeded.

Exact details! Day 1 the source stream doesn't start until round 4, so we'll get underway at 1:45pm local time = 11:45pm Eastern Friday night. Day 2 begins at the start of the day (round 9) at 9am local time = 7pm Saturday local time. See you there!

Still waiting on exact details but next weekend is not just Vegas and Antwerp and Calgary, but Yokohama as well, which means I'll be live on twitch.tv/ajlvi overnight Fri+Sat to supply English language commentary. For the first time in a few RC cycles I'll be joined by @ajelenbogen.bsky.social!

Great changes to Standard. More or less exactly what I would have done in WotC's shoes. The Pioneer ban makes a lot of sense to me, although I wish I got to play the format enough to really explore the implications. Mid-RC Modern ban was never happening. Overall, nice work WotC.

Here it is: 18K words on how to win with Sanctum Amulet at upcoming RCs. It's the best deck to play in modern - even if you're just okay at it. Put a ton of work into this one, so it's $15 or a $5 sub (comes with all my other articles). @fireshoes.bsky.social www.patreon.com/posts/140190...

I have no idea what you mean. Greg and I have at least a moderately successful twitch stream and everyone we have met through it, creator, friend or fan, has been just awesome. What kind of bizarro world is this from?

I went 2-2 to 11-2 at the GP last weekend, which I am proud of regardless of the result. But then I looked back and learned that the last two times I q'd for the PT I, at some point, won 9 matches in a row. I guess you just need to go on a run to do well in Magic in general.

Question: At the moment, if a player is disqualified at some event A, is there any mechanism whatsoever to prevent them from playing event B, presuming A and B are run by different Tournament Organizers?

I have watched @tiddypills.bsky.social go from one of the strongest up and coming players on the NRG circuit to more or less retired to the Regional Champion of the United States. I have tested with her for numerous events and she never fails to keep things fun. Congratulations to Jesse!

How much larger is RC Charlotte expected to be than RC Portland? It's pretty clear to me it's going to be larger but the extent of it is an open question.
