I've been working on a guide for my Dimir Moonshadow list for a while and I'm glad to announce that it's finally out (for free!) It has 5k words and delves into the sideboarding plans, deckbuilding philosophy, and gives many tips and tricks. drive.google.com/file/d/1aPo2... @fireshoes.bsky.social

T8ed my LGS' monthly event w/ UB Aggro Car. Idea was to combine @harmonyjwoods.bsky.social's UB deck w/ the smallest possible Car package to create a ReScam style deck that can win fair or unfair. If Car stays legal I think this is the way to build it going forward cc: @fireshoes.bsky.social

As an MTG historian, I love that the HoF has returned. However, I think the entry requirements are flawed. 23/48 members of the HoF wouldn't be eligible for induction given today's rules. 8/23 got there post induction, but who knows if they could have if not for the invite granted by being HoFers

The Avatar mechanics article has an error describing how earthbending works. The comprehensive rules show that the land will return under the control of the player that earthbended their land, not the controller of the land when it died or was exiled. #mtg #MTGxATLA

7-1 in my first draft of the format. Both of the rares were busted, and was surprised how strong earthbending is as a mechanic. Looking forward to drafting a lot more cc: @fireshoes.bsky.social

The big things the Harmony cube currently up on MODO does right 1. The best standalone cards are Swords and Utopia Sprawl, not some individually broken "synergy card" like Esikas Chariot 2. Even the normal decks are synergy engine decks, but every deck is still 20-50% getting it done in combat.

Undefeated at first FNM post ban with UR Delver. Shamelessly stole INF's 5-0 list and ran with it. The deck still definitely isn't fully in my wheelhouse, but it's really strong cc: @fireshoes.bsky.social

4-0 at FNM with Nadu Midrange. Stole einstein9998's list card for card, but forgot the 2x Faerie Macabre's were in a different box. You're really a dog to combo G1, but beating up on Reanimator/other fair decks is great. Haven't played the list enough to suggest changes cc: @fireshoes.bsky.social
