I was on the Creative Text team for Nauctis and it's genuinely the greatest set I've ever worked on. If you love more traditional Magic worlds, this is your moment. Pure high fantasy in a new setting with so much respect to both the real world natural inspirations and the story of the world itself.

Just a week ago, we celebrated Pip's 9th birthday and his 3rd year being tumor free. Needless to say, we're eternally grateful to the surgeons, nurses, and staff at Rady's. We try to express that gratitude any/every way we can. Extra Life is one such way. :)

Nando @nandob.bsky.social · 22/10/2025
At age 5, just before his 6th bday, he was diagnosed with a brain tumor - a pilocytic astrocytoma. Shortly after the diagnosis (a midnight MRI) we were admitted to Rady's Children's, and at the first available opening, the team there removed the tumor (thank you Dr. Levy!!!) cleanly.

Anyhow, if you can't tune in, but you're so inclined, I'd be super grateful if you could donate! Every little bit helps! Shoutout to Rady's Children Hospital's - the neurosurgeons there *literally* saved my son's life. 🙏

#MCAtlanta Reflection Time! 1. Out of all the decks you took with you, which did you enjoy playing the most? 2. Did really enjoy any of decks you played *against*? Or did they inspire you to explore something similar? #mtgedh #mtgcommander #wotcstaff
