there was definitely ante in ice age limited. but ante was probably used in earlier limited formats too? but maybe that was the first official prerelease.

matt nass is in that stage until 4-5 hours post decklist deadline. :P

sounds like tournaments should be played 1v1 or 2v2. but not multiplayer.

few things feel better than countering something with a disrupt.

while i really love this brewing phase when everyone gets excited and tries stuff, i'm not convinced that unbanning mox was a good idea. :)

enjoy them until they get banned again. :P

@maxrushden.bsky.social @barryglendenning.bsky.social easy way to avoid duplicates: type your top X lists in something like google sheets or excel. when you start writing a name in a new cell and the app auto completes it ... you could still typo player names, but you'd never do that, would you? :)
