Midwestern nerd. Collector, player, and worst L2 Judge of Flesh and Blood. He/Him. My PFP's name is Bran, and he will steal your shoes.
Just a normal day at Armory today.
Had a first round bye, watched some good games, then played a Rhinar and a Prism. Got there both times on RKO, my favorite new deck since Ice Lexi.
It's very satisfying playing FaB in paper a couple days a week. I love this game and my community so much. #FaBTCG

2-2 in the 10am sealed and 3-1 in the 6pm sealed, with a 3-0 start in the latter (just barely!) That's my favorite scenario, I love offering a ticket split and just having a chill fourth round. Those are some of my favorite games at events.
Lots of love for the Taipanis playmat today too.

I'm definitely not upset to be a literal block away from fifty delicious sounding restaurants in Philly's Chinatown for Flesh and Blood Worlds and judge stuff you week. I picked one at random after checking in, sat down, and ordered this. It arrived in twenty seconds.
I may never return home. #FaB

Friends, I really like RKO. It's the most fun I've had playing a new deck since Tales of Aria. Please don't hate him 🥲
He can block well, loves to pitch stack, can handle arcane damage and can be defensive or aggressive. Loves rolling Scabskins. Never draws cards. Blues are flexible. Don't hate.

Huge respect to my two locals at table 1 in round 7 (of 8) of the Chicago #FaBTCG Battle Hardened. David Bruner is on Florian and Brandon Robinson is on RIPTIIIIIIIDE
Oh and Brandon won. 7-0 Riptide locked for top seed in the top 8. What a world.

Just once it'd be nice after a major event to see social media posts asking folks to share their positive interactions with judges. It's so heartwarming reading fifteen posts from someone who wasn't at Event X laying out the latest conspiracy claiming we're out to ruin your hobby and end your joy.

Day six of #FaBTCG collecting that brings me joy!
I like collecting things that aren't just game pieces, like these empty boxes. But there's too many now for my bookshelves, so I am putting up some new ones. There's room for an LED strip too.
I'll need a new plan when set 38 comes out, I guess >.>

My second #fabtcg High Seas treasure pack ever was a different kind of unique
Fortunately it was not an actual lost treasure and somehow not bent far enough to crinkle! It'll flatten out just fine.

Heck of a door prize tonight at my first #fabtcg High Seas prerelease of three for the weekend! Also pulled an RF Gold-Baited Hook in my sealed pool, and had a pretty cracked Marlynn deck even without it. It's probably going to join my limited Hall of Fame.
Hoping I can buy a box at tomorrow's!

Had a fun and casual 8 player The Hunted draft for this week's Armory at Valhalla Hobby today; they squirreled away a few English boxes for days like this.
I'm so glad #FaBTCG focuses on draft play for every set, it's my favorite format by far. Lots of fun joking around the table and great games.

I'm parked now, but the audiobook for the third Dungeon Crawler Carl book just had me screaming cheering laughing like a damned maniac, twice in as many minutes. Instantly one of my favorite book experiences of all time and I'm a voracious reader.
Can't recommend any harder.

Attn politicians, if you want my vote now and forever, work to pass a law that allows me to deduct my 401k losses on my tax return whenever a massive dip is precipitated by dumbass self-own government action
