My deck has no pathetic cards
You already know it’s time for us to bust out this one

I’ve seen nothing but thirst for this Oko avatar (I get it) but nobody even mentioned VIVIAN GETS ONE TOO

Bright glass gear hull is my card of the year too!
Chasing the high of playing Ranger of Eos and Birds of Paradise in standard has done wonders for my enjoyment of the game as I pause between UB sets

While definitely not civilian and probably technically an “army medic,” I always liked the implication that Healers Hawks were helping distribute medicine across their planes
No battle healers definitely rules out a lot of cards on my cursory scryfall searches lmao

I love Acidic Slime for the iconography, but these are the 5-drops in my (heavily untested) Cube that I amalgamated from Legacy Cubes and Arena Cube

I’m debating cutting the Mammoth for Slime because I feel like I need more foretell cards for the gimmick

Worlds is very entertaining despite it becoming what I hoped Standard Magic would never be: “Gran-Gran copied by Spider-Man”

I would love for Strixhaven to print more cards like these into Standard

My first promo from one of my first purchases of Magic the Gathering :)

It’s a shame they made mechanically unique ones almost immediately after. Always enjoyed niche alt art promos collectible through some achievement based means.

Obviously I’m biased because I love Monster Hunter, but I’ll take this over a steering wheel, a belt, and whatever the OG ring of fire art is supposed to be

Would love to see everyone’s tier list tho
November 20, 2025 at 9:26 PM
I felt a Monster Hunter collab was inevitable given both companies history of collabs

I just want to say to @wotc-news.bsky.social that I would buy several of each if I could log in when I get home from work and not have to sit in a bot filled queue for the chance at getting one

This is the funniest goddamn announcement in a minute. I’m still giggling.

Every couple of months this bird gets banned somewhere I don’t know he was still legal.

He’s the mascot of these announcements.

I want people dressed up as him like Gritty at conventions.

Put him in the B&R banner jpeg

The brawl queue has been so heavily irradiated by Strip Mine and the queue changes, that I almost can’t even be mad about Leovold being in Arena.
Now you put this bad boy on there and you’ll never here me complain again

Re:Hybrid mana
If the proposal from the Wizards article were to hold, Lorwyn:Eclipsed actually introduces another asterisk to the rule other than Deathrite Shaman and the Guildmages that the opposing side is citing.
I personally don’t think it’s worth the rules load. Just play with what u want lol
October 24, 2025 at 7:22 PM
I love the companions and the Lorwyn avatars, but I agree. I just don’t think there’s a better rule that’s as clear, concise, and consistent to cover all these weirder edge cases
October 23, 2025 at 6:39 PM
I had the same thought with some other card mechanics as well. I’d never tuck anyone’s yum for playing them, but I just don’t think there’s an alternative rule as clear, concise, or consistent across all these corner cases
October 23, 2025 at 5:13 PM
It’s even a deeper discussion than that because Beseech the Queen was posited as potentially being legal in literally any deck
October 23, 2025 at 4:58 PM
In a world where this was changed I’d say specifically “hybrid mana in all of its potential costs and abilities” to avoid semantical confusion around the legality of these corner cases
October 23, 2025 at 1:20 PM
It’s obviously a different thing entirely, but I’m fascinated by these discussions and I respectfully try to ask anyone who is in favor of the change: What are your thoughts on a rule to make phyrexian mana functionally colorless identity? Or allowing a card like MOM Etali in Mono red decks?
October 22, 2025 at 2:29 AM
This is a totally separate discussion obviously, but I’m curious: would you be down with phyrexian mana rules changed to be allowed in any color?

I can be swayed over if I can put Pod anywhere. Sorry if you’ve talked about this at length in a video, I’m bored online atm and enjoy the thoughts
October 21, 2025 at 10:14 PM
Obligatory UB groan aside, going from “Legal actually asked us to change the type line of ‘Ninja Turtle’ on Kappa-Tech Wrecker to ‘Turtle Ninja’ for copyright reasons” to this collab will never not be funny to me
October 8, 2025 at 9:09 PM
Honestly might be this guy
September 20, 2025 at 5:30 AM
And on top of all this, I get cards from Ixalan, Ikoria, and Bloomburrow!

Imma be spending all day on the MtG Universe Project
September 8, 2025 at 10:22 PM
I care about the Magic Universe more than I do the actual card game engine and this project proves that ANYTHING can conform around Magic’s world building. My biggest fear was some of these arts would just edit Spiderverse characters out. But Wizards went above and beyond my expectations

Happy Birthday to me and star of my favorite Rom-Com, Cristin Milioti

I just learned yesterday that, on Arena (and despite DMC Xira not existing on arena), Fumulus actually makes these tokens lol

After attempting to play green decks in Standard for 60 min and not making it to turn 5, I have instead decided to queue into Brawl with my Vannifar deck only to turbo chain into Acidic Slime and clones to destroy lands.
I’m full on Joker arc, only WotC can stop me now
