RIP in peace to the only deck in this game that you can goldfish on your desk. You'll be missed everywhere except in real games, friend 🫡

With two RC invites I'm done with the deck for now, and hope to be done forever (hopefully it'll be gone by the RCs). But if YOU want to play the most broken TCG deck I've ever seen before it gets banned (I'm expecting post-LA), check out my guide! www.patreon.com/JasonILTG/po...

one amazing thing about Riftbound that no one ever talks about is that the game engine is fundamentally incapable of ever producing the card Simic Growth Chamber

It's a great time to play Riftbound

3-0'd the next one everyone is done for (modern deck still awful)

Paul Green @pg8.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

My modern deck is unplayable. I've 0-3'd my last two drafts. I'm in my zone.

It's wild to me that the Riftbound 10k in Pittsburgh this weekend is using Topdeck, notable Nazi-run tournament software. I was planning on going at first but after seeing this fact I don't wanna touch @excaliburevents.bsky.social with a 10 ft pole. Topdeck context: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Lost the finals of the LTQ. Can't be upset after how much I've struggled with draft this year. I really think I improved dramatically at limited by reading @r-condon.bsky.social's fundamentals article, it's like I'm playing a completely different game now. 5-0-2 RW Sealed 2-1 BW Draft.

11-5 for 33rd. Only 11-5 to not get the Tamiyo, rip. Feels good to pick the best deck again.

Paul Green @pg8.bsky.social · 02/05/2026

3-0 with a nearly perfect UG deck dropping no games. Don't ask about my deck from yesterday.

It's a good day to win one match of Outlaws of Thunder Junction Booster Draft

Well I 0-3'd draft (no clue how to draft OTJ) and 5-0'd standard again (Landfall is broken)

Paul Green @pg8.bsky.social · 01/05/2026

I love Outlaws of Thunder Junction booster draft!!!!
