I've been meaning to do more short form yaps... Build your Magic decks backwards ❤️

Cooked up a quick B4 Scarlet Witch deck last night and in 3 goldfishes, it's threatened a win on turn 4, 4 and 5 respectively. Seems good!

Scuttle Crabs hate him! Local Riftbound player exposes shocking crab secret. Learn this hidden trick for shocking results 🦀

Very excited for the Sydney Riftbound event this weekend. I'll be around all weekend and will be running it down in the main tournament on Saturday which I am WOEFULLY under-prepared for. Wish me luck, but also say hello if you see me!

Magic bulk piles up so fast... Good thing I checked it and realized I need to sort it properly before I give it all away...

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 10/05/2026

Haha, exactly how I found it tbh. I was working on an eldrazi combo deck based around spawns 😅

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

Why is this guy that only plays bracket 2 telling me a 4 mana card is bad 😅 come now that is vastly underating it. With a card like Warren Soul trader the activation cost is free. And in a Meren deck or similar deck with lots of creatures that did and come back or as part of a combo, it's good

Both are great, but yeah it was the yeeting stuff into the graveyard that surprised me

Leap is great, but I knew it existed, unlike this one :D

As a Meren enjoyer, how have I never seen this card?? It doesn't appear on her EDHRec page and is in only 21 Meren decks out of 20600 in the data. That's absolutely wild. I love finding hidden gems. What a banger.

Want to cast the net out here. Are there any alter artists that follow me that take commissions? Especially if you love and want to work on a Project Hail Mary inspired alter.

Still on Strixhaven... So you really liked Magic's most beautiful Counterspell yesterday. Whilst not foil, what about the most beautiful Brainstorm?

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

Given we're deep in Strixhaven... I'd like to present to the class my recent acquisition. The most beautiful Counterspells in Magic. Straight into my pauper deck, and yes I appreciate the irony in that😅

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 21/04/2026

OG Strixhaven brought me back to Magic, and I still love the Mystical Archive as much as I did last time round. The Foil Force of Will goes hard! Thanks to @magic.wizards.com for helping with my Strixhaven Education. #gifted

NO WAY! That's huge. What a beautiful card. Congrats! I went 1-2 in my prerelease :D

Not a bad week for the froge in competitive card games. 2-1 At Pauper with Dimir Control and 3-1 at my second Riftbound locals with Azir. Now to crack the two SoS collector boosters that found their way into my backpack....

I'm currently nursing a lost voice or I'd be yapping about it, but I have a card preview for you! Ennis, Debate Moderator is sure to be a solid addition to flicker focused white decks, especially in bracket 2 in commander. Thank you to @magic.wizards.com the preview opportunity #MTGStrixhaven

Not something I'd have expected when I first had the idea to do this. Accidentally becoming a magic frog has taught me many lessons and hopefully my turning into a frog has resulted in the same for you. Thanks for being part of the frog army <3

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 08/04/2026

Despite being a very mechanically focused player, the Strixhaven Japanese Mystical Archives cards are what brought me back to Magic in 2021. Without a doubt my favourite art and card treatment in Magic and Secrets of Strixhaven is running where the last set walked. Incredible <3

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

No way! We finally got the scuttle crab in Magic. Thanks Strixhaven!

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 02/04/2026

So the Japanese alt arts are why I got back into Magic, but I thought The Hobbit would definitely be the best set of the year. Strixhaven really do be saying hold my beer right now. What a set!

I've been looking at alter artists as I want to get an alter made and given well... frog... so I had to share these. Some of the cutest alters I've seen from @Seliemoonart. Do yourself a favour and go and look at their instagram. It's even better than you'd expect. @seliemoon.bsky.social

I'll be doing my best gromp impersonation at the Riftbound RQ in Sydney as a creator. I've challenged myself to compete, and no doubt there'll be a tale to tell and some lessons in the wake of it. If you're going, see you there! #RQSydney

For any late nighters, I'll be streaming at 11:30PM ET / 2:30PM Sydney time. I'm going to be working on my B3 Meren deck, updating my B4 Zhulodok list, chatting doing Q&A. This test stream will be only on Twitch at www.twitch.tv/baseddeckdept as it a test stream. Come hang out

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

Hey! yeah I use Moxfield/Archidekt as that's the easiest and least barrier to entry. It's also worth flagging I only really playtest one main 33 card portion. Because if that works well enough, then it's just about finding similar cards or tutors to fill out the other two 33 card lists / the deck

Seemingly much more commander focused than mine, but love the list. If I made a more recently focused list, probably half of those could easily be on mine

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 10/03/2026

There are many cards that could belong here, but I think these are reflective of the decks and experiences that most influenced what I enjoy in Magic... This is going to age me 🤣

No Magic video this week, too busy slaying spires. Absolutely loved the first game, and loving number 2 so far. #SlaytheSpire

It's a pretty good day to be a turtle enjoyer #MTGxTMNT

Based Deck Department @baseddeckdept.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

The turtles were a pretty big part of my childhood. So much so that I named numerous childhood pets after them. I am unsurprisingly very keen to crack these open. Hope I get all the Raph and Leo cards :D Thanks to Wizards of the Coast for the turtle power. #MTGxTNMT #gifted

Always love hearing when someone's come across my ramblings. You love to see it. I can only imagine how hard the little worker goes in a golbez list
