I would've put up Dookie if you didn't lead with Green Day. But instead I'll offer an album so good it set the vibe for a movie genre 20 years later

I would've liked this art in a Return to Battlebond set, but such is life

I like organizing more than I like updating the decklists for their banned cards. Still multiple players of mycospawns but I sure as shit can find 'em

Sample pack from a 4-player cube I've been working on. It's newbie-friendly so the mechanics are relatively low in complexity and avoids wordier cards. My favorite piles so far have been "mono red" aggro piles that stitch a wide band of mechanics together with hybrid mana.

I should not be nearly as annoyed as I am over the "Animal May-Ham" ability. That is the weirdest assemblage of "animals" that excludes a HUGE amount of magic animals and makes no sense whatsoever. This is an Un-card with an ability of random words that doesn't even support the standard format...

Vorthosers: do we know what this claw belongs to? I'm not recognizing the hand from any of the species in the stories or set types so far. #Vorthos

Been getting heavy into Spirit Island after way too long of a time away from the game. There's too much replayability for its own good, but I would be perfectly content if the rest of my plays were just this spirit scaring colonists so badly they get lost in a liminal space for a bit.

It's been a long time since I wrote anything that wasn't about DNA, but with Spiderman on the horizon to join the many creatures of Magic: the Gathering, I thought it'd be fitting to ramble a bit about my favorite bit of disconnect in creature design www.dietdrew.com/2025/07/the-...

I feel all warm inside when I play this and then flicker it the next turn. Eventually, those basics have to run out.

This looks like such a sweet slot-in to the bevy of modern decks that capitalize on a density of 7-drops for Ugin's Labyrinth (fitting). Innate removal, draw, mana and an ultimate that will set you up for the long game. Eldrazi ramp is gonna be eating good.

Been getting deep into the escapism lately with our Frosthaven campaign

This is what I want to do on turn 3.

I love a good night of being an absolute villain in #EDH, especially after the fourth boardwipe.
