Father to a 🦖 and a 🌹- Nobody 'Cept Her - LSS Team - 1/3rd of l'Œil d'Ophidia - Paladin - Flesh and Blood Commentator/Player/Cheerleader
"Let's Go Again"
Today, BH Paris in Team Trio is my first time playing a competitive FaB event.
There were no BHs in France when I started playing, then I started casting, then working for LSS, so I just never had the chance.
I won't lie : I'm terrified.
But I'm playing with friends so I can't lose, right?

Bonjour x3

Well... That happened.

The commitment and passion these 3 guys put into preparing for this event was impressive, and I'm glad they're rewarded!

Tonight, for the very first time in my life, I'm going to see a Superman movie in a theater with my son.

Superman has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, he was my favourite superhero when I was a kid and even as I grew older (until now...), I kept being drawn to his stories.

Here I was, coming back from a work trip, to play a SEA Pre-Release at my LGS with my son...
And, out of nowhere, Calling Taipei Champ Evan "Tan Guy" Tanguy (shoutout to @howlingmines.com for giving him that nickname, fits perfectly!), comes to crush my dream of going 4-0!
ALMOST DID IT! ALMOST!

Nathan For You was the best exploration of our fucked up civilization but The Rehearsal is light years ahead of its time and S2E3 in particular is an absolute masterpiece.

Do yourself a favor and watch all of Nathan Fielder's work in order.

“The Rehearsal” Finally Achieves Liftoff
The new season of Nathan Fielder’s HBO series takes a bold conceptual leap—and, with Sunday night’s episode, it went from an assemblage of stunts to a work of art.

4 years ago to the day, 3 weeks after our daughter's birth, my wife had a stroke.

We had to uproot our family and leave Paris so she could rebuild herself, moving to the French Alps, where she was born.

It was tough for her, and for our family, but...

American (more precisely NOLA-based) @fabtcg.com friends : I'll be going to Pro Tour London next month.

If you are too, and can bring me a box of mixed Hubig's Pies I'd love you AND make it worth your time and effort!

It's obviously impossible to get them close to fresh in France...

Cannes was a blast and I'm so proud of the team and its dedication, sharing @fabtcg.com tirelessly and with passion!

Kids, families, TCG newcomers, we had it all...

We'll be going to a lot more conventions in France (and abroad) this year, we hope to see there.
The Flesh and Blood Learn to Play booth was recently at Cannes Festival International, with hundreds of adventurers experiencing Flesh and Blood for the first time! 🔥

Bring your family and friends along to experience FAB! Check out our upcoming conventions schedule!

I'm always proud of my son (and talk about it a lot ik) but tonight he's listening to the Sex Pistols and playing Cindra on Talishar, and as he's beating his opponent's Zen, he's screaming at the top of his lungs -with a deep French accent- "nooo futuuure for youuu", and I've rarely been prouder...

Son : "This year, my resolution is to work hard to be the first"
Me : "You don't have to stress out about being first, you're already very good at school and we're proud of you"
Son : "Huh?! Oh, no... I meant I wanna be first at an Armory".

Keep grinding, gamers!

Happy New Year <3

Had a great chat with @charlimero.bsky.social, talking about what is, imo, the best deck in Blitz right now : Data Doll!

Thomas placed in the Top 4 at Battle Hardened Florence with his decklist.

Enjoy the decktech!

In about two weeks, I'll be casting Battle Hardened Geneva with my friends from the Swiss community.

In conjunction with that awesome event, our latest video on L'Oeil d'Ophidia (link below) includes one of our biggest giveaways : CF Cosmic Awakening!

This is an amazing response to the public outcry over CYB.
I'm not a competitive player by any means, obviously, but I think the way Mercy approaches the matchup is great.
I love having a puzzle in front of me and I think CYB presents an interesting one!
I know many people felt frustrated by CYB watching the finals game, but I'll say I didn't feel frustrated while playing. The deck posed a very interesting puzzle that I was ultimately unprepared to counter with 0 reps into CYB Enigma. (3/x)

"Keep playing, you'll see". And I saw...

Also, in early 2021, the best FR player at the time (and I'm convinced he'd be the best FR player right now if he still played), Zhikan, taught me the fundamentals of pitch stacking and said "Swing with Anothos until 3rd cycle"
When you first started playing #fabtcg and were in the phase of just getting blown out by more experienced players at locals: what was the most helpful thing to hear?
