not pictured* two more bundles of silver dragonshield sleeves

These are 90-ish% dragon shield sleeves- a couple of the bundles might be ultra pro eclipse. They’ve barely been used if ever! Had this autistic habit of building tons of decks and never using them to play with.

Hey #magicthegathering #mtg #commander #edh bluesky family and friends: I have at least 42 full commander (99 sleeves at least) decks worth of sleeves after selling half my decks, would anyone like to make me an offer $? I’ll ship it anywhere in the continental USA. Can you share this too? I’m broke

Ugh, you no what fucking else? They have singlehandedly made common and uncommon foils far more expensive to obtain; "people dont love foils like they used to" excuse me? this is bullshit to justify lowering costs. Whelp, back to selling off decks I go. Every wotc decision makes it easier

I figure the possibility to be a magic influencer or to be a content creator anyone would ever gave a shit about has died on the vine; I peaked being a writer for Pure MTGO with the greatest editor @joshuaclaytor.bsky.social, So I'm not gonna pull punches about WOTC's corporate shareholder bullshit

This reads to me like: We noticed that the secondary market aggressively doubles the pricetag of collectors' packs, so people aren't buying them during a time when beef, gas & energy prices harbinger endtimes-capitalism. Our solution? Even more gambling. God packs: Spend your fucking money, pleb.

I put so many counters on my Heroes' Bane in Arena that the game would not let me double it anymore. Also when I tapped my Selvala after having 1073741823 counters on the Bane, it would only give me up to 400 of each colored mana. I wound up doing the most damage I've ever done, possibly in 30+ yrs

If it wasn't for the fact that I had 4 Rakdos decks already, a treasures deck in Mardu, and a blue-red Dragon typal deck, I would so build this

I'm going to attempt to get the Labyrinth secret lair with Hoggle in it, simply because I want Hoggle. The only other card I like in it is the Worm; is anyone else looking for anything from that one we can work something out? The Treefolk one is amazing though, it's my favorite.

Gonna rule zero this card put it in a regular 100 card commander deck with Whtz, put in a bunch ways to find it, then cast it and switch it with a 200 card deck once i get Battle of Wits out

The problem is other cis guys usually give me the ick unless they already wouldn’t need to be reminded about these things as a bare minimum default, and at work usually they are on their best behavior. The people needing to be called out usually insulate their social circles to be w/similar assholes

I’m hoping it was in the survey so when it overwhelmingly comes back as “nope thanks” the staff can show the soulless shareholders that it will cause more harm the ln good, but in a timeline where entire towns can ask capitalists not to erect data centers and be blatantly ignored, I’m pessimistic

Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
But I’m worried about playmats and deck boxes and cross promotions; HP world exclusive promo! And it’ll be in standard and all over arena; this isn’t some fringe worry there is a real chance this could happen because no matter what the staff want it’s an capitalist corporation

I know, I’m just really concerned that they’ll bank on hp fans buying the product enough to offset the people who boycott it and then if we were all comfortable with pinkertons and Pringle foils and deadnaming arena employees then surely we won’t sell our collections and we’ll just hop back in

He’s not like donating his time to a food bank he’s talking about stuff that’s directly related to his job

And the more popular it is the more he can command for a salary; my wife doesn’t get paid to make content but she’s a tattoo artist and her making content directly affects who buys her services. He doesn’t get paid to blog but the more magic that it helps sell the more secure he is.

Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Listen I can sense you like MARO a lot and I like you and yourxontent and blusky presence so I’m not trying to like just be a crab, but He’s also pretty aggressive sometimes in that blog whether or not you agree with the questions, he does it for free feels disingenuous. He’s directly paid by them
110
Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Okay then I hope you’re right and I hope I’m wrong; he’s paid a lot of money to be their spin doctor, despite likability, & I just don’t see Hasbro letting the rights deals go to waste; I’m picturing the “just don’t buy it” responses. not trying to be combative I just don’t have as much faith as you

Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Also I suppose this is subjective but actually I haven’t been wowed by in-universe sets this year, lorwyn was fine, nothing insanely special and I didn’t care for strixhaven or reality fracture. I’ve loved the magic storylines for ages but these fell flat to me

Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
I guess we’ll see together, but if hasbruh paid for a license and the R&D teams don’t want to use the license Hasbro can replace those teams; I’m just saying we’ve heard some very clear NOs in the past that have definitely turned to a YES and been given corporate spin as to why it had to happen

Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Right there’s clearly reasons I’m just saying its easy to envision a future where there’s “reasons” why mtg makes a HP UB; like I’d be allowed to be nervous even if there wasn’t a pattern of promises that have “reasons”‘why they can’t be promises anymore; maro is paid to be a corporate apologist
100
Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
I love UB, but he said it would be fringe, then said it would have in-universe equivalent, then he said it wouldn’t enter standard then he said he was still prioritizing in-universe sets, then market trends said we need half the blocks to be UB He says a lot then does what the shareholders tell him

Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Maro has “assured” us lots of times about lots of things that have then most assuredly not but assured, with the caveat that “trends have changed”

What I need @magic.wizards.com to understand is I spend absolutely all my fun monies, several thousands a year, solely on Magic. If they partner with someone who will use her share of the profits off of her involvement solely for persecuting trans people, I will sell and/or burn all my cards

Adrock Dadrock @chocoborborygmos.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
I’m really concerned about this because I will literally have to stop. This thing that’s already riddled with end stage capitalism and maximized for shareholder value that has been my hyperfocus for over 30 years, I will simply have to divest myself and pretend it no longer exists

Riding around in a ridiculously overtuned Honda Civic smokin' a blunt of dirt weed, not needing to pay rent, and listening to the Chronic 2001 on blast would fix me. I could find money for a couple slices and a can of coke in my fuckin' couch cushins.

Got old-man wistful today about the era of music videos, internet staying in one room, and going to blockbuster. I know it's a tired old observation but the Matrix saying that 1999 was the pinnacle of humanity was supposed to a throwaway line, not a modern day oracle's foreboding

Not to mention the fact that even if you pay double the amount of a mortgage for rent consistently that’s not good enough to qualify you for a mortgage you still have to make sure you paid a cc 29%. Apr long enough to make your arbitrary credit score with ever-changing rules high enough

they're not clueless or misled or anything, they are being paid to do what they are doing. "winning" for their donor class is not winning elections, it is maintaining the status quo, which means aiming for a political deadlock where no ambitious policies can be enacted
