So much to look back on from MagicCon, but a definite highlight is getting this artist proof from @evynfong.bsky.social. It was a delight getting to talk with you!

Highlights from the past week: Pretty foils for premodern and some damaged dazes that will find an un-sleeved home. I’ve had a copy of “Jigoku” for a while. Well worth the watch. 50-50 martinis have been the drink of choice lately. Salty snacks on the side.
Two foil magic cards held in front of an off white wall. Cards from left to right: impulse and recoil. Two magic cards held in front of an off white wall. The card on the left is facing backwards and has “Peek V” written on it in pen. The card on the right is a copy of “Daze” with the bottom right corner ripped off. A pamphlet for the movie “Jigoku” (Nobuo Nakagawa, 1960h is held in fromt of a wall. The pamphlet is orange with swirling red flames. A martini with a twist of lemon on a table. There is a hand coffee grinder and a brass espresso machine in the background.

I enjoy the conceit of introducing the cards physically to Sam in the Strixhaven debut video. Similar to the advertising and art direction push for physical mediums in Lorwyn Eclipsed, this is a subtle way of highlighting that magic is a physical media with people that are excited to share it.

Did you know you can do things? That the horrors of the world are being carried out by people who only do so because the *feel* protected, by money, & pieces of paper, & fear? Did you know all of that can be taken away if enough of you are organized? Did you know the world is yours to win?

Great video! The impact on game design becomes more clear with every release. This is a game. Playability will affect its success. What good is getting more players involved in a game that is a mess to play.

I thought this was a Spiderman comic? In all seriousness, I love this cover art and I’m very excited this exists!
A hand holds a comic with text “Magic: The Gathering. Untold Stories: Elspeth.” The cover shows a woman in colorful armor and flowing clothing. She holds a black spear the emanates a black magic. Columnar buildings ascend a hillside behind her.

To clarify I think there are pushed cards in every set, but I think it's pretty clear that the level of creep in UB sets is different than the level of creep in UW sets.

UB spiking power creep is for sure a factor, but the rapid release schedule that overwhelms players must overwhelm development. This game is so good. How good would it be if there were two less sets a year and development had that time to cross check work and revise things?

Edge of Eternities prerelease. Got to play “Shrimp Fried Rice.” When it got going this deck really cooked. Lacked a little consistency but it was so fun to play.

I have many arguments for why Grislebrand should be unbanned in EDH, but the most important one is that the cute nickname potential is endless. He’s just a lil guy named Grizzles.
