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

You can't be out here calling them Commanders like that people are actually gonna fall for it (the game is so sick)

Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 15/07/2026
Yeah, I think the notion that combining two things we like would produce something we like even more, while maybe intuitive, is just not correct in general. Magic with Universes Beyond is a glaring example of it, and I don't think it's a matter of quality of execution per se.

If I understood it correctly: Football(?) player who was a guest in a bunch of Commander videos is making his own 1v1 competitive Commander format where his Discord votes on bans, but he's also bragging about buying up cards for it. Personally, it kinda feels like the MTG version of a rugpull to me

Day 5 of testing Tron: 3-2 R1 D harmonywoods Esper 2-0 or 2-1, I don't remember R2 P Doomsday 0-2 R3 D Yorion UWx Control 2-1 R4 D Death n Taxes 1-2 R5 D Naya Initiative 2-0

Testing Tron in Legacy, day 4: Took a break today to play Invasion Block draft. Fascinating format - it's like half modern Limited, half old Magic with all the colour-hosing stuff etc.

Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 08/05/2026
Day 3 of Tron testing: 2-3 R1: Stryfo Pile, P R2: Affinity, D R3: TES, D R4: UR Delver, P R5: BW Death n Taxes, D I think my mulligan decisions are still off. The Affinity match was close and came down to my opponent playing very well by forcing a Disruptor Flute that would've hit Emry.

Testing Tron in Legacy, day 2: 1-4 R1: Mardu Pyromancer, D 1-2 R2: Naya Depths, D 1-2 R3: Yorion Beans, D 0-2 R4: Forge, D 1-2 R5: Grixis Midrange, D 2-0 A bunch of misplays in this league that cost me some wins. Tron is good at beating sideboards, but I need to learn where I can't be patient.

Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 07/05/2026
I decided to be conservative with mulligans in this league, took maybe 3 total across the entire league. Like other Planar Nexus decks, this one probably mulligans really well, so I'll mulligan more aggressively going forward.

Testing a new deck, day 1: 3-2 R1 Forge, Draw 0-2 R2 UW Control, Draw 1-2 R3 Naya Midrange, Play 2-1 R4 BG Moonshadow/Hogaak, Draw 2-1 R5 Esper Vial, Draw 2-1

Got my first ever 5-0 Legacy League today with trusty old Big Dimir! The deck feels like home at this point. R1 UW Blink 2-0 R2 Does Machines Storm 2-0 (super sweet deck) R3 UW Blink 2-1 R4 UB Tempo 2-0 (Moonshadow + Shredder) R5 UR Cam Combo (Emry + Cutter)

I find that user's perspective fascinating, but so different from how I see these things myself. I'm much more aligned with you in the sense that I think friction and tension bring excitement and novelty. I think there's a parallel to the AAA vs indie video game experience there as well.

This place is probably gonna be flooded with Magic B&R discourse today, but some good news from yesterday: I won my store's Riftbound release event! Game is super sweet and surprisingly complex.

Oh yeah I feel that, I already don't love doing it with an actual teacup when it's too large. Nowadays, my usual setup is whichever number of ~25-30ml teacups fits the volume of my vessel

I tried it with a friend last weekend, and even with the basic Proving Grounds starter decks, the game was already surprisingly deep. I'd say give it a try, if only casually, and see how you feel afterwards.

Those are the exact bans I'd like to see. Sadly I don't expect all four of them to happen either, but I hope that we can at least get started on trimming down that list.

Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 23/10/2025
I'm seriously considering buying a deck on MTGO and will likely do so after the next BnR. Having a small cushion of play points would be a massive help with being able to run leagues back after having a rough one.

Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 27/09/2025
I was gonna comment on your first post by saying that while I think the cards we've seen are really interesting and creative so far, I've been worried about the recent trend of in-universe sets increasingly relying on references and callbacks, so I'm happy to see you point that out as well.

Finally back on here after my PC had been broken for the past 2 weeks. Won this with Cradle Nadu at a local tournament a couple of weeks ago. Also, look at this unrelated Tundra.
000
Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 04/09/2025
Got a nice little 4-1 with good old Cradle Nadu, only losing to honestly one of the coolest decks I've seen in a long time.

Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 31/08/2025
3-0-1 at the local Legacy monthly with Cradle Nadu. I felt lost in the format ever since the lack of BnR update, but I think I found a comfortable spot. R1 BW Death n Taxes 2-0 R2 mirror - intentional arrogance draw with a friend R3 Mono W Stompy (Clarion Conqueror and friends) 2-0 R4 UB Tempo 2-1

Yeah, as good as the one before this one was, the most recent one was just rough - even regardless of whether one would want anything banned or not. The text itself just showcased such a massive disconnect

Looking at this second graph, it feels like we might genuinely be in a format with a Tier 0 deck at this point.

Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 28/06/2025
Yeah, she's probably the best generic card in Legacy right now. I love playing with her and would be a bit sad to see her gone, but part of me would also be excited to play UB with 4 Strix if she does leave. I'm gonna be on UR Cutter for now though, deck is fun
010
Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 27/06/2025
Sounds like I picked a good deck for this weekend then - UR has also performed really well in my testing. UB Tempo can be a tough matchup, but mainly if they run Barrowgoyf main. UR can usually go wide around Nethergoyf with Cutter and win the race in most situations.
100
Sigi @guydrinkstea.bsky.social · 17/06/2025
I this this is a neat card and I'm tempted to try building something with it for Legacy. But realistically speaking, Barrowgoyf is probably just better as a 3 drop.
