It's like having your B button be jump and your A button being attack. You've had to live with it and suck it up, but you know it's wrong and are truly unhappy with it. Then you discover button mapping, letting you to fix things. Suddenly your sorrow turns to elation as things finally feel right.

Was this the best use of my time today? No. Is it the most amusing way I could have spent the last 90 minutes? Absolutely. Pattern is free here: bit.ly/4nGGCGc

the rage I felt for this card when it was first printed

Tonight I'm going
To New York city
The place I'll call my home
And tonight I'm going where the climate's shitty
Where I won't feel so alone
And I will build it up right from the ground
With my own bare hands
Until the sun doth set
On the silhouette of this broken promise land
Say Anything "My Bare Hands"

Hades II is amazing. There are nods to both Lattimore's and Wilson's Odyssey translations.

Lattimore: “Tell me, Muse, of the man of many ways…”
Wilson: “Tell me about a complicated man…”

Hades II: “Some know him as the man of many ways; certainly he is a complicated one.”

Wait a minute, it’s Halloween! And my giveaway has nothing even remotely Halloween themed!

Luckily I have the perfect solution! Adding this pair showing my favorite part of one of my favorite Disney movies.

I will add reposts to this, so repost both to double your chances!

Pulling a winner Nov 2!

Actually, seeing a man of color, getting scared, and calling The Police, is pretty typical racist behavior

A conversation with @basswakil.bsky.social this morning reminded me that I was briefly interested in how to make Commander decks that can also work as their own, distinct casual formats. Maybe I should revisit that idea.

This week’s giveaway is:

Vaguely Disney themed?

Didn’t have a plan for this week, so I just pulled some cards out of my giveaway box that had a bit of a theme to them.

As usual, follow and repost to enter. I will pick a winner Sunday, October 26!

I miss when "it's good in Commander" was code for "it's bad in every other format."
