Not everyone feels welcome at their local game store — and that’s a problem worth talking about.
@janeplaysmagic.bsky.social joined us for an honest look at what real inclusion in Magic should feel like. youtube.com/shorts/hxbke...

So real talk: Did MTG have hype cycles when it was strictly their IP? I've been on and off for decades, but when I was heavy in standard (up till last year) I never said, nah I'll skip this. But honestly. Spider-Man, ATLA, I have no interest. It's weird. This is probably a me problem.

Entering the busiest season of the year for work and life. I promise, I'm here, still grinding, supporting other creators and popping out my own content. Going to take a production break at the end of the month. I should have enough stuff to schedule into the new year.

Weekend responsibilities in the gamerdad house involved helping clean up at my parents house. Found this box was used from one of their moves.

Pendragon Deck of the Week: Weapons Vendor + Wrecking Ball Arm (mono-W Voltron). Vendor makes anybody a 7/7 for one mana; evasive attackers make it hit even harder. If this sparks an idea, have fun with it. youtube.com/shorts/Y5KIR...

One bump for the Saturday crowd.
People are losing their minds over hybrid mana in Commander.
Here’s the truth: hybrid isn’t the issue — the pattern is.
Every time we stretch the rules, the format gets easier, flatter, and less distinct.
Let’s talk about what’s really happening.

The test went well. Feedback sent to the right place. Bottom line. This app will be better than Spelltable in the next 6-12 months. Maybe sooner. Thanks for being a competitor in this space @girudo.bsky.social
First hands-on test of @girudo.bsky.social tonight over on @jessehogie.com's Twitch for our bi-weekly Friday Night Sealed. We got settled in the app early today, man that camera is crystal clear. Looking forward to something that will give Spelltable a run for its money even if it's early!
