Grave Titan being a “blast from the past” makes me feel so incredibly old
Here are some blasts from the past: Grave Titan and Erayo, Soratami Ascendant are both undefeated at 4-0 in Yokohama!

Takashi Boku is playing the black titan in a Grixis shell, while Erayo appears in Rodion Zudin's Izzet deck. So far so good for both these players!

Funnily enough after a booming 2024 of cube, this was the last time my community fired a cube event!

I’m gonna drop a new sign up sheet for December this year and see what the turn out is 😎
Exciting things happening for my local cube group! Hosting a year-end cash tourney

We have a community spotlight on gaytransmulldrifter's Old Border Kitchen Table Cube. From beloved icons, to forgotten jank, this cube embraces the reason we all began to play Magic in the first place. Spending time with friends. How would you start? #CubeCon2025 #mtgcube

My only experience with FF was watching my undergrad roommate play, but the cards look sick. Super excited for Cecil in my cube

Trans rights are human rights, because if one person isn’t free to be who they are, then none of us are free.

Having a cube group made up of constructed grinders has a lot of advantages but sometimes there’s a tournament every weekend until April and I just wait around like

Here’s the switchboard number for the House 202-225-3121 and the Senate 202-224-3121. You don’t need to make a speech. Just tell your reps yes or no on a particular vote. It’s that simple. They DO keep tallies, but they can’t read your minds. Calling & writing is like voting. Get in the habit.
Believe it or not, emailing/faxing your representatives to say "I am deeply unhappy about this for the following reasons" gives them ammunition to use on the floor. They quote constituent letters all the time. It won't do squat if he declares martial law + shreds the constitution but here we are

I’ve got a few cards to locate still but my newest cube is mostly sleeved up 😭 idk why it’s always bittersweet when the planning stage of a cube ends, but excited for the first draft!
