Top 4 in today's sealed Super Q for an RC invite! My sealed deck was absolutely insane. I have now won 3 Standard RC invites this year playing Modern, Legacy, and Sealed, but never Standard

Top 8ed today's Modern Challenge with Twiddle, haven't been posting every top 8 since it's still the same decklist and Ring is about to get banned so it doesn't really matter, but I was especially proud of some of the games I played today.

I won all 3 of the games pictured.

I decided to do a play on Spotify Wrapped to reflect on some of my experiences with Magic this year.

Ran it back for another Energy challenge top 8 this deck is very good vs. energy but I still can’t wait for the B&R

R1: LWW Jeskai Energy
R2: WW Boros Energy
R3: WLW Mardu Energy
R4: WW Boros Energy
R5: WW Boros Energy
R6: ID
QF: LL Broodscale Combo
Got a small modern challenge top 8 with some more Twiddle. Basically 3-0ed my R6 opponent by conceding both postboard games to put another Energy player in top 8 🤷

Today on trans day of remembrance, I am thankful to have the people I do in my friend circle and my family.
I’m lucky to have them and broadly thankful they exist in the world.

If today applies to you and we’re not close, I’m glad YOU exist too.

Trans rights are human rights.

Challenge top 4 with this build of Twiddle. 1-of Wish was actually... fine? The rest still feels great, deck still is great against Energy but this build feels like it fixes up a lot of the bad matchups I was experiencing

For everyone migrating from Twitter—here's my Modern Twiddle Storm guide. It is not completely up-to-date, if The One Ring remains legal after the next B&R update I will update the guide accordingly, otherwise the deck will likely not be top-tier anymore at all

Tried a slightly different build of Twiddle in this weekend's challenges with Wishclaw Talisman (and mainboard Tome Scour) instead of Wish, and mainboard Vexing Baubles. Felt decent, got two top 16s and a 2-2 drop, gonna keep working on this
