Greed is good! 3:0 in #MTGSOS draft. Never resolved the Capstone (although it made an opponent concede twice), and didn't feel I had enough big spells for the Lute. Firstpick Emeritus made me want to greed hard, so I took all fixing, but another player took all converge Spells. Whoops.

First #mtgecl draft, 7:2. Firstpicked Grub, because goblins. You can never have enough grub. Dream Harvest didnt make the deck originally bc curve, got rage readded after losing m2 to flood. only drew it m9, when i never hit land 5. Looping Grubs with Mischief = fun. lost m2 vs vivid, m8 vs hobbits
rad little BR goblins draft deck from ECL. highlights are 3 Grub, 2 Mischief, a cursecrafter and pretty much no removal beyond 2 tweezes. Collective inferno and Dream harvest are included for questionable spice.

Dear @magic.wizards.com, the lorwyn story is a fantastic yule gift. Being reminded that the core of magic rules so hard is a treasure we shouldn't take for granted.

A Hummer is a weird brand name for Germany. Because it's never a Hummer, depending on if you pronounce it correctly or with German phonetics, it can become either a Hammer or a Lobster.

Yes, having Ancestral Recall in standard is the most busted part of that deck - but have people complained (enough, or even at all) about the egregious colour pie break that is Combustion Technique, a red (better) Murder? #mtgatla #mtgstandard

@shivambhatt.bsky.social Just heard your little rant about the Metallic Dragons being an incoherent assembly of alloys and pure metals, and I absolutely agree. One addition: bronze is already an alloy of copper and tin, just a more famous ancient one than brass. Makes no sense.

@mtggoldfish.com some #mtgfishmail, if you will. Nothing about magic, but about the goldfish crew. Who is in it? Seth, Richard, Crim are the podcast. Tomer, Phil and Morgan are on Clash. What about Joe? He does only write, is he still considered a member? Has Niuttuc been fully replaced by Morgan?

Just listened to maro's podcast on hybrid in commander, and rarely have I disagreed with something more. He basically says that it doesn't work as designed, and that's bad. I say yeah, it doesn't work as designed, because commander is a weird little corner of the game, and it should be like that.

Just 7-2'ed a Dragonstorm Draft. MMR must be in the basement, as this deck had no right getting there. 4c dragons with no white, no orbs, no Wildling, just a handful of exhales, a Ureni (that never got cast, my boards were just too good) and a dream. Played vs Shock Brigade into Roamers Routine...

Pioneer may be a dead format on the official wotc circuits, but Pioneer in the Clouds 6 today in Neumünster was a fun 61 player event. I even made top 4 with this beauty: www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/7400042... (Might post a pic later but am on the train now.) #mtg #pioneer

@shivambhatt.bsky.social @wheeler.bsky.social Once again I'm listening to a great new episode of you loving Magic, and feel the need to defend a broken card... Loved how much you guys talked about Golgari Grave Troll, but I believe its unban in modern was fine at the time and would be now, too.

Leute sagen, wenn man sie als Nazi bezeichnet, macht man das Diskussionsklima kaputt. Ich sage, wenn man sie sinnvoll als Nazi bezeichnen kann, haben sie das schon lange selbst geschafft und sie müssen sich diesen Schuh anziehen. Leider sind Social Media Moderationen da nicht auf meiner Seite.

Once I learnt that the gaming event GenCon is short for Geneva Convention, I enjoyed the pun, but also was once again deeply confused by the European America settlers' desire to give every place an already taken name.

@shivambhatt.bsky.social One note to a card on the Aftermath episode of SAWLM: Yeah, Deification might be annoying with the right Superfriends (although I usually see it do nothing bc creatures die). But it's not just "power of love". It's a [[Worship]] using Therosian "godhood via followers".

Just seen the original Child's Play. Weirdly good, but not scary at all. Feels a bit like a movie with no audience, too tame for horror fans, to horror coded for others... Is it just baby's first horror movie? Was it intended to be that?

I see all these people so hyped about the FF magic set, and I just can't care. All I see is cards that look nothing like magic cards, and I have zero nostalgia triggers at all, having never played any of those games.

@shivambhatt.bsky.social just listening to the aether revolt episode, I had no idea about the consulate dreadnought - we don't have 7/11 over here, and we also don't have indian run convenience stores, I technically KNOW apoo is bad, but it's not engrained here. Unusually tone deaf by maro, wow.

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

Just got six golden units super quick and free on a Ninja/slayer board, was even only missing one Shen when the game ended. One of the craziest easy games of #tft I've played in a while. Think I ended on a 12 win streak after pivoting out of contested Cultists.

Okay, I did not see that coming. Just a harmless little tempo/control pile casting a few card filtering spells, amped raptor? Okay, weird choice for a value card with no energy... Wait, wtf? Really nice with all those alchemy cards pulling no lands without showing me their deck 😅 #mtgarena #brawl

I guess I'll be happy for the FF enjoyers, but I have zero nostalgia for those games, so I'm mostly flabbergasted why they'd start previewing cards when the last set hasn't even been officially fully released for a week. Then again, magic: cars also doesn't strike my fancy too much, maybe FF helps.

With how advanced tech seems now on Avishkar toake the "steam" even more inaccurate than at its birth with aether, and the new consulate making the "punk" angle kinda moot, magic could really need a new take on a steampunk plane.

In the second episode on C11, @shivambhatt.bsky.social is being sad that Hydra Omnivore isn't worded in a way that's neat with white cards for combat damage. I, Gruul player, want to hold against this that the way it's worded now instead makes it apply quadruple damage via a single Furnace of Rath.

@shivambhatt.bsky.social wow, awesome, a Tad Williams episode? Completely forgot about the guy, loved his novels when I read them as a teen, up unto Bobby Dollar. Gotta check out his new stuff, then. (And yes, he is kinda big here. Not the biggest, but bigger than Dragonlance or Redwall xD)

Opponent seems to like drafting Juggernauts, but not playing them. Kaito looting doing heavy lifting. #MTGFDN #Draft
