Scryfall takes donations and is always worth supporting if you can spare the cash. Couldn't think of a more important Magic website in this day and age. 🥳 scryfall.com/donate

Don't worry, it just LOOKS like my commander was hit in the face by a flying fish. It was an _ILLUSION_... No? That really happened? And my commander is dead? Okay. Sounds about right.

Between Zeta and MBC, the secondary market is going to be nuts come November, when both of these sets will hit hands and mailboxes. Again, buy singles if you're not looking to draft. And maybe wait a couple months if you can bare to wait.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

I think we can often get hung up on wanting to do the cool thing so much that we forget that sometimes a popular Commander lets us do the cool thing also, we should give newer players space to tread the same paths we've already been down blog.cardkingdom.com/you-should-b...

Though $20 boosters with a limit of 12 feels like it's meant to drum up drama. Don't make The Professor tap the sign. Buy singles. These are all reprints.

Good enough is actually a prime spot for cards to be in a game with 4 people. And these gold enchantments range from "good enough subs for expensive cards" to "actually good in certain archetypes" youtu.be/M7tK-deSk2g
