Hi. I’m Ed (okonik on MTGO & Arena).
Finally managed to pick up a copy of Edge City, a board game that’s been on my wish list for years. Excited to get this to the table.

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is DMU, and the card is Tolarian Terror.

I really like building decks around cost reduction mechanics, and I love U spells decks. This card has also been one of my favourite additions to Pauper in a long time.

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is BRO, and the card is Phyrexian Fleshgorger.

I really like the Prototype mechanic in BRO. It makes cards versatile, creates interesting decisions, and makes for fun combos with blink and reanimator effects.

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is ONE, and the card is Glissa Sunslayer.

A really powerful and versatile 3 drop. Not necessarily the most elegant design, but a really exciting card that I’m always happy to draw.

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is MOM, and the card is Faerie Mastermind.

If I’m not playing a grindy black midrange deck, I’m usually playing a blue tempo deck. Invitational cards are always awesome, and this is one of my favourites.

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is WOE, and the card is Mosswood Dreadknight.

This is one of my favourite ever Magic cards. It’s fits my playstyle perfectly, and is in one of my favourite colour pairs. Plus the artwork is beautiful. 10/10

There are to many honourable mentions in this set to pick just one, so instead here’s the card with my favourite art of the set: Poison Dart Frog 🐸

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is LCI, and the card is Thousand Moons Smithy.

LCI was great. I love the theme, and enjoyed the draft format. Thousand Moons Smithy is another of the kind of build-around artifacts I really enjoy playing with.

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is MKM, and the card is Buried in the Garden.

It might not be the flashiest card, but is such a unique design, and is a great way to advance your game plan while slowing your opponent. I love the artwork too.

Honourable mention goes to Simulacrum Synthesizer from the Big Score bonus sheet. I love blue artifact decks, and this card has so many build around possibilities. It may well be my favourite card of the year.

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is OTJ, and the card is Caustic Bronco.

OTJ was a miss for me sadly, but Caustic Bronco is a great 2 drop that fits well with the kind of black midrange decks I love playing. Also, that artwork is just awesome!

My favourite art from Bloomburrow is Dour Port-Mage by @rpancoast.bsky.social. I love the atmosphere and the colour palette. Such a great piece.

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is #MTGBloomburrow, and the card is Mockingbird.

I saw the potential of this card as soon as it was spoiled, and it hasn’t disappointed. I’ve especially enjoyed copying huge token creatures for 1 mana 😎.

Honourable mentions go to the wonderfully designed Sheltered by Ghosts, and my favourite creature from the set, Abhorrent Occulus. Duskmourn is such a great set!

I’m posting my favourite card from every Magic set. Today’s set is #MTGDuskmourn, and the card is Drag to the Roots.

I really enjoy building around cards with cost reductions, and BG is one of my favourite colour pairs, so this card really hits a sweet spot for me.

I love blue artifact decks, so Simulacrum Synthesizer gets my vote. I still haven’t found the perfect home for it, but part of the fun is figuring out that puzzle.

Nulldrifter is an awesome choice tho. Great card 👍

Honourable mention goes to Sun-Blessed Healer. A versatile card with lots of potential upside. I’m tempted to put this in a Vintage deck so I can play it kicked on turn 1 to bring back Black Lotus!

To help you all get to know me, I’ve decided to post my favourite card from each set, starting today with #MTGFoundations.

My favourite new card from Foundations is Sire of Seven Deaths. Such a cool design, and lots of fun gameplay possibilities.

Skulking Ghost by Robert Bliss from Mirage. One of the first cards I opened, and I immediately fell in love with this art.
