Idk which MTG players need to hear this today, but you play one of the most complicated games in the world... FOR FUN. Odds are, you're pretty darn smart. Maybe even smarter than you think you are. You can strategize under pressure, too. I think you're capable of doing some incredible things.

Neoliberalism is designed so that individuals become so atomised that the only question in response to rising fascism is "what can I do?" & the subsequent answer is "nothing". But the moment you reach out to an org asking & answering "what can *we* do?" the impossibility of action is proven false.

A smiling person stands in a board game shop, holding a Magic: The Gathering card (Void Winnower Store Championships Promo). They’re wearing a beige beanie with the words “mom jeans.” on it, and a light gray sweatshirt with the word “charm” on it, with board games behind them.

I woke up late and didn’t fully prep my deck the night before, so I forgot to bring my basics and 2 rockface villages to the store. but I had a bye round 1 so i ended up buying 2 packs of Bloomburrow and ended up opening a Rockface Billage for use in round 2.

Are there 5 sweeter words in the English language than "announcement of a general strike"? Solidarity & strength ✊

my favourite moment at #f2ftour #rccalgary : after making day 2 with my friend (who i tested burn vs demons with about 10 times), we got paired in the 7-3 bracket and had a yugi/joey duelist kingdom moment so happy he won 2-1 with rakdos demons and eventually qualified for the pro tour! (10/3/0)

Two people smiling at the camera at the regional championships in Calgary, sitting at a table with a playmat and Magic: the Gathering cards, and dice.

Of course that's your contention. You're a first year RCQ grinder. You just got finished reading some SCG articles, "Who's the Beatdown?" probably, you're gonna be on that until next month when you get to Reid Duke and start talking about "Thoughtseize You" and top-down thinking

Loot is very clearly depicted as a Noble in his Magic cards, and thus is implied to be a part of the wealthy elite of Magic. And as well all know, we should eat the rich. In this essay, I will reveal how no matter how cute Loot may or may not be, he is, ultimately, food. 🧵
