Hi! I am a #mtg player and former L1 judge, and father of a cool 4 year old son. He chewed on a Mountain when he was 10 months old, and wasn't impressed. So no red player :)

I collect the Magic card Lord Magnus, just for fun :)
Hi @wotcmatt.bsky.social

If you have time, I have a question for you that I didn't see answered in the Mechanics article: Is firebending giving a creature a red color identity? I assume not, as with extort the mana symbol is in reminder text, but I wanted to be sure :)

Thanks! You are cool :)

My god, Krenko is a beast.

I lost from a fairly casual Krenko deck. He only played 2 lands the entire game, but that did not stop him :P.

Granted, we all played lower power level decks, but still....Krenko hit the field, and the next turn we were all dead!

What a card!

I made a Tim #CMDR #MTG deck with The Fifth Doctor and Yasmin as Commanders, and I am loving it so much I wanted to share it :)

It is bracket 1 or 2-ish, and it just taps and slaps 😄

I got some #mtg loot in the mail today!

I am building Syr Vondam, and there are also cards for my existing Callaphe, Ognis, The Council of Four, Baba Lysaga, The Emperor of Palamecia, and Kotis Commander decks! Oh and Ezuri, Claw of Progress!

Care to guess which one is for which deck? 😁

I think I am going to skip 95% of Edge of Eternities. There are too many sets. And every time I get excited, like for some FF cards, it feels like an old set already.

Making The Emperor of Palamecia. I still need 4 cards, have never even played the decks, and 50+ new legends are already out.

Grmbl...yes, I should have picked them up when they were 10 euro and I thought 6 was enough, but I couldn't resist this one for 22 euro...now it totally expect it to win me games 😁

I can recommend bracket 2 Kotis Mutate Commander a lot! Probably not as powerful as the "Giant Growth" version, but so much fun!

I mutated these three on him and got soooo much value! A 10/10 flying indestructible that steals from the library hits like a truck 🤩

Last Commander game of the evening: my Benton vs Karlach/FF vs Dalakos. All blazing starts, but it was over in 10 minutes on turn 6. I had 25 cards in hand and beat the snot out of Dalakos and Karlach. What a great card. Thanks John :)

I just bought these two cards (among others) for a Commander deck and I am so happy they will actually get a spot in the deck and I will love them there 🥳🤟

Please @gavinverhey.bsky.social, stop being so unkind to people named Mark! My name is Mark, and I know you work closely with @maro254.bsky.social, but this is getting out of hand!

Why the witch hunt for Marks? 😉

Still, thanks for the Horn at least! 😁

Today's EDHREC Commander of the Day is an oldie but a... no, it's just an oldie. It's Lord Magnus, one of the first legendary creatures. He leads 27 decks, for a rank of 3,414. Anybody play this guy? #EDH #Commander

I had one of those core dad moments yesterday: my 5 year old can now ride a bicycle without using training wheels! :)

Hi @wotcmatt.bsky.social!

Since Hero has returned as a creature type recently, is there any chance the old ones that were printed as Hero will get reinstated as such? Thanks!

When considering what to buy from the Final Fantasy set, remember the usual advice: *do not pay inflated preorder prices*. Prices will come waaay down once supply hits the market. Wait 1-2 months for the prices to plateau before buying.

I am so the left two about FFVII and so the right one on any other version 😅

Hi @seraphsix.com! Is there a tag on Scryfall yet where I can search for all cards from FFVII for example? Or could that be implemented some day (**looks sweet**) :)

May the Fourth is always a bit weird on social media for me. My timeline is full of Star Wars memes (which I love), but May 4th is the day we remember the deaths of all those who died in WWII, and those who died in later wars.

I was 2 mins. silent today, together with a big part of my country.

My #mtg playgroup is playing #cmdr tonight, but I can't attend. They are sending me updates though, and I really liked this one! The accompanied text was "Unexpected fun combo!"

I agree! :)
