In case it hasn’t been clear for my position on politics. As a special education middle school teacher, my motto at work is always “safety first” we are not safe right now. Fuck fascist, fuck ICE, continue doing what you can to keep those you know and don’t know safe

First round shoveling complete! Hope everyone is staying warm and safe out there ❄️

Got to hang out with some friends today and learn the Imu deck from one piece TCG I haven’t played the game much since Gecko Moria was banned and with the new set OP14 out I figured I could see what decks are like right now. I went 5-1 in practice games with my first time picking the deck up! 😍

I know people are excited about TMNT but it is wild how this rushed feeling took over so quickly with edge of eternities then avatar the last airbender. The same thing is happening now with Lorwyn people want to enjoy the set we are on but everything feels so rushed that I feel like I’ll get 1/2

Decided to start a 30 day challenge last week on my instagram and TikTok. Going for 1 video a day to get used to short form content compared to my twice a week long form content creation schedule of YouTube

Already opened up 2 shock lands. Make sure you get a playset of each shocks from Lorwyn Eclipsed, prices are dropping and you’ll be thanking me later no matter what 60 or 100 card format you’re playing!

Got together with my brothers to teach them riftbound. They are league players so they recognize the characters while I’m just a tcg nerd that plays other mobas like Dota and HotS

I’m working on brewing up more budget friendly modern decks starting with a snow control deck. Will probably add harbinger of the seas into this list as well but I feel like it’s at a good starting point

Need help keeping track of -1/-1 counters AND all of the other counter types on the same card? With InfiniTokens dry erase counters and tags, no more remembering which die is which counter!

This card makes me think about what flex spots I have in my Yawgmoth list with all those undying creatures. Or even my Dimir Oculus build with unearth 👀

Anyone out there good at turning long form gameplay content into shorts? I’m so bad with short form content but I understand how helpful it is for growth. 🫠

Have you wondered how the new Avatar the Last Airbender cards are doing in other formats?

We've got a player testing out Avatar Aang in an elemental build in modern using moonmist to flip him into the Avatar state. This is a best of 3 match from our LGS~!

Working on putting together some old school modern decks to add to our collection. Went with Bogles, Humans, and Burn.

What other decks should we add to the rotation?

I went undefeated last night with my Izzet Twin deck so I used some store credit I’ve been banking up to pick up some cube cards, modern cards, and Phyrexian/Spiderman cards for my collection
