My first Modern trophy since 2023 is a 61 card special 🤣
Jokes aside, I love this deck so much and would definitely encourage Prowess and Cutter fans to try it! Only difference from my list at the Modern Super in ATL is adding that 61st card (3rd maindeck Boomerang). I love every card in the 76 ❤️🔥

Gosh I wish Pioneer was a relevant format. Wanted to be able to cast Academic Dispute while jamming Arena: X-2 from Plat to Mythic with Nem + Rage finishing the journey. I miss casting my best bear and my best girl in Standard 🥹

Well... a bittersweet trophy finishing the last league I started before the Spotlight. Beat Jeskai Ctrl, Izzet Lessons, and Mono G Landfall today (no clue what I beat pre-Spotlight).
Love to see the adventure off Bonecrusher Mouse securing the final points of damage 💪🐭

Just dropped a free post on Metafy with my thoughts after SCG Atlanta. It was an up and down and up again weekend that helped me finally finish my equation that answers the equation "is it worth it for me to travel to the next RC?"

While the main event clearly didn't go the way I wanted it to with a 5-4 record, I'm still very happy with my performance overall this weeke

After a really good Friday I failed to make day 2 of the main event on Saturday. Luckily that meant I could play my fav format on Sunday - split the finals of the Modern Super RCQ today 🙂

Still scraping together the last few cards in paper so I don't have a nice #deckpic yet but very happy with where I've landed for Spotlight Atlanta. The mouse package still has a lot of punch, the bunnies help out-scale red removal, and white has excellent interaction.

61st for $250 and an RC inv with the THICC boys in Hartford. Happy-ish with the result overall but every day ended on quite the low note. Bittersweet weekend 😅
Friday: cracked a molar at dinner
Saturday: double mull to 5 in round 9
Sunday: found 14 lands with opponent under 5 in my PT win and in

Clean 5-0 10-0 with my version of Prowess. Abundant Harvest is cracked, and Questing Druid is just the best 2 mana draw spell for the strategy. Pending carries a lot against all forms of random hate crap, and Phalge sweeps the mirrors. Really liking the list.

Expected this to be a meme but gameplay was absolute 🔥 last night. Turns out cheating in big dudes might actually be a viable strategy for countering a meta tuned to beat the speed plan. It pains me to exclude Slickshot but the gameplay speaks for itself.

If you enjoyed last week's keep or mull video then I have good news for you: a sequel was commissioned and I just posted it to YT! I wasn't sure how gameplay-free educational content would go over but the reception was warm so thanks everyone and I hope you enjoy the sequel!

A bit nervous about this week's video as it's something I've never done before: no gameplay, purely educational content. The video was commissioned as an examination of opening hands with Mono Red Aggro that aren't snap keeps/mulls. Hope you enjoy!
