Qualified with my new version of @magic.wizards.com Simic Zoo, just add elephants. WARNING: YOU MUST SING/ PLAY THIS SONG TO WIN: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_A9... Speaker is Buh-Roh-Khen; card of the set ATM. Also, definitely need the Flood Maws; you lose too much to aggro without em @mtgarena.com

7-0 Standard Challenge with @magic.wizards.com Simic Zoo. There's a ton of Izzet & Reanimator, so I'm taking out the Flood Maw's and adding 3 Lanterns. I did two big misplays, but still feel really good about deck and my play. If I had money, I'd purchase the deck IRL😤 @mtgarena.com

Got three 7-win runs with @magic.wizards.com @mtgarena.com Selesnya Kona. Deck's great for Bo1; I think I wanna clean up the mana a bit - you need two white mana early. Also no reason for only 3 Evendo. Might cut 1 Seriema for something too. #MTGArena #MTG

Finally got 7 wins in @magic.wizards.com @mtgarena.com! (in Bronze LUL). I've never built drafting as a skill and wanna get better. I draft green + another color (and rare draft lmao). Might take it more seriously at some point and go back to in-person when I have free time. #MTGArena #MTG

5-0 with my version of Kampo's @magic.wizards.com Dimir Midrange. I think I'm taking out the last Sunset Saboteur for a 4th bat or 3rd Tidebinder and then the deck's probably perfect. Also 26 lands vs. 25 feels SO GOOD. Sideboarding is just 'put better cards in.' @mtgarena.com #MTGArena #MTG

Hello gamers! I've found a cozy medieval game that I've really been enjoying and think y'all will like as well. If you like Kingdom Come Deliverance or survival crafters, I would HIGHLY recommend Medieval Dynasty steamcommunity.com/profiles/765... #simulationgame #community #Steam
