I'm the back-to-back Boa Finals champion 🐍

I played Lurrus Cycling for constructed (set roulette) and a nice version of boros go-wide in atla limited! Avatar has been a really fun set so far

Thanks again to my friend @elgranboa.bsky.social and his sponsor Majestik Games 🤝

Next stop, RC Antwerp 🇧🇪

Split the finals of todays challenge with UwU after finishing 9th yesterday 😎

If you told me ater the release of MH3 that Azorius Control would be my frontrunner for a RC in 2025, I wouldn't have believed you lol

Please stop me from submitting UwU control at the RC 🥲

I'm really trying hard to be in my good deck era but this deck just speaks to me

Hey Bluesky (that's when you'd like to be on Twitter I guess), in case there are still some unused Vivi Ornitier in the world, I'm missing three of them for Spotlight Series Liverpool this week-end!

9th in the legacy showcase with Turbo Lands designed by Sprouts 🫡

I decided not to play my trustworthy forge, because I believed that the field would be too prepared after EW !

I skipped yesterday super qualifier and spent most of my day hiking, I felt fresh and sharp for todays tournament 😎

I really like watching my games against streamers, it's always a good learning experience!

But chatters really need to chill with the stream sniping accusations. Being called a cheater because you took the correct line is really not a something I appreciate. It's one of my biggest mtg pet peeve 😅

Top 8 in the saturday morning challenge with an old favorite 🫡🌩️

The metagame is shifting fast after the first US RC. Storm has a pretty solid matchup spread against the top decks but really suffers from being inconsistent

The bauble tech is serviceable, although I'm not sure about the numbers!

This is Brian Merichiko (left) and Dave Crowley (right).

Dave misplaced his Vintage deck filled with cards like Black Lotus at a local restaurant. Brian, an employee there, found the deck and somehow tracked Dave down at the EW and got him his deck back. What an amazing and touching story!

7-2 in the legacy showcase challenge with a vintage deck !

I'm focused on modern these days, so I just netdecked a very stock list.

This archetype has a very strong proactive gameplan and is really not easy to attack (I beat every null rods today).

Losses were to Doomsday and Mississipi River!

One month and a half before the european RC, I'm once again asking myself if it's too late to learn amulet titan 🐒

I split the finals of the last important event of the season to lock 1st place 🫡

The tournament structure was Duel Commander + EoE draft:
- In DC: Thrasios control, a new build created by Jules Lestienne
- In draft: UW flyers with a double spell subtheme

My prize was a revised Underground Sea 🤑

Top 16 in Vintage Super Qualifier! Ripped @xenowan.bsky.social 's list (minus a null rod cause my rental limit is 600 XD)

Decks sweet, vintage is sweet, and now I'm back to move prep LOL

Top 16 in the vintage championship with Dimir😼

Thanks to team Grindstone for working with me on that list! And especially to @univercemtg.bsky.social who found some great techs 🤝

I beat 6 Lurrus decks (3 Mirror, 2 PO, 1 breach) and lost to Dredge and a Tinker brew

Vintage token acquired thanks to the power of clown car 🤡🚗

I only get to play the format a few times a year, but it's always fun!

The shell felt promising, but the list is still very rough (especially the SB) and needs tuning. I liked the Nettlecyst "aggro" pivot

One of my mtg-related ggoal for 2025 was to play more paper events and try to become a better "paper player". I enjoyed the process and I think I did a good job!

I'm currently seating at #1 in the EUL national ranking for France and should get an invite for the final event 🫡

This weekend, I qualified for Turin playing a slightly innovative build of Belcher that I've been working on with Nick Cosgrove 🫡

With the metagame being so combo-centric, Flare is a bit worse while FoN gets better. Tamiyo and Stock Up gives you enough card advantage to support 7 pitch spells!
