Last month, I sat down and talked Magic with limited enthusiast and former Canadian National Champion Marc Anderson @neo-mtg.bsky.social! We dive into some highlights of his pro career, discuss how limited has changed over the years, and talk a little cube too.

Big update to my Arena cube!
Swapping 10% of the cards (hopefully the largest change every) - a lot of backlogged changes I wanted to make since my list was locked for CubeCon, a lot of exciting adds from the Arena Powered Cube update :)

This cube was heavily inspired by Chapin's "The Theory of Everything" article I came across while working on my podcast.
The "seed crystal" was Wild Mongrel - I was enchanted by the direct exchange of cards to damage, and the tension it brings to combat.

This week I'm recapping my long weekend in Madison, WI at CubeCon! I'm walking through all SEVEN of my drafts, and making a pitch for why these cube events are the best way to play magic.

Won an insane match 3 to 2-1 and lock up top 64 tomorrow with @improphilo.bsky.social's Cascade Cube! Deck was pretty medium but grinded out a 1-0 match victory (my fourth 1-game match of the weekend 😵😵😵)

Flexed some "take the good cards" in a Synergy cube to a 2-1, got soloed by Lingering Souls in my loss
Should need 1 match win to lock up t128!
