IF YOU'RE A MAGIC PLAYER AND NOT FOLLOWING ME YET you probably use Bluesky at work or in public in which case kudos for your good judgment.
Looks like Apple is doing to discontinue Rosetta 2 support after the next couple years, which I guess makes sense because most apps switched to being Apple Silicon native years ago.

(except for Arena, which is still broken unless you run it with the much slower Rosetta 2 mode)

i don't make games but i do write fiction. and i know it's been almost a decade since @maro254.bsky.social wrote this but i still think about lesson 11 — if everyone likes your game but no one loves it, it will fail — all the time:

i really should start playing in these tournaments, i have so many of these silly play-in points.

being able to convert them to another currency would be so niiiiiiiiiice

I've been playing Historic since the beginning of the format, and I think this may well be the worst meta I have ever seen.

The fact that the recent B&R announcement didn't even mention the problematic cards (Sorin/Elendra) has me convinced that Wizards simply doesn't care about the format at all.

i don't tweet about magic often these days, but suffice to say: i don't think it will ever again design a more broken Bo3 Historic deck.

is it called science FICTION because there’s no bureaucracy? or excel spreadsheets?

can't remember the last time i pulled off an infinite kill combo in limited, but big thumbs up to whoever at wizards snuck this into foundations

i stopped posting on @bsky.app a year and a half ago because they didn't do polls yet. now i'm back and it's still not a supported feature.

is it too much to ask for a social media website to have polls with five options, so i can ask what the best magic color is†?

†it's blue
