What's up, Bluesky? I'm Trentyn, and I am probably the biggest Talrand stan you'll ever meet.

This, is #TalrandPosting, the place where I show you my favorite deck: a $20 Talrand deck that I'm in the process of blinging out to it's fullest, most expensive form.

Welcome 💙

Me: "well... maybe next weekend"

Okay so this was actually a W for me but this shit whips so bear with me.

I'm playing white-border Talrand, yes you read that right. I am DEAD. On board. D-E-D DEAD. I have one out, and it has to be in the top 3 cards of my library. I have to draw exactly Mystic Sanctuary

I think I officially have a single complaint about NerdGear:

Shipping times 😩

Like, I know I live in a state that might as well be a foreign country, but hooolyyy shiiiit does waiting almost 3 weeks for a pack of sleeves to arrive feel super lame.

And the playmat shipped from the Netherlands? 😩😩😩

Our 4th has to work next Sunday so no Magic for me, but what does that mean is I can watch the @loadingreadyrun.com CanLander Year End Top 8 instead 👀👀👀

Keep hybrid mana as is, let people Rule 0 it in if they want.

Please never unban Iona.

Griselbrand would be cool.

I disdain Rhystic and Smothering Tithe and wouldn't mind seeing them go, I don't think the "people love them" argument is very good.

Aside from that, no notes
In addition to the unbans / bans today please continue to read this article for details specifically on: Rhystic Study & Thassa’s Oracle, Jeweled Lotus & Hybrid Mana. As well as the three cards we heavily discussed - but weren’t unbanned today.

I think the hybrid thing is funny because they want to play some of the worst cards in off colors/color IDs that they wouldn't even play in the decks those cards CID fall into lmao
