Decided to do some cube updates, no more Shadow of Doubt and going to test out Symbiote Spider-man instead, I debated superior but giving the non reanimation decks so love for value seems worth testing #cube

I’m very happy to see no bans in Modern, I was hoping we might see some unbans but the format is quite healthy.
Standard makes sense bye Vivi.
Legacy reanimator needed a hit so we’ll see how things settle
Nadu also number 1 bird I’ll be enjoying him in cube and Canadian Highlander

Started doing some analysis of my magic content on YouTube comparing 2024 to 2025. It can be tough in this space when yo compare yourself to other creators. Try reframing your mindset towards growth against yourself.
2024 I had 563 subscribers by 2025 that grew to 935 and now I’m partnered

One of my buddies picked up the Ghost of Tsushima secret lair for me today because he knew how much I wanted it and knew I couldn’t get it at work

The downside to being a teacher when secret lair drops hit that I really want, I miss out on them. Really wanted to Ghost of Tsushima drop 🫠

My take on the hybrid man debate. The weird cases with 3 color hybrids muddy things too much to make me comfortable with changing the rule. If you want to play more hybrid cards play cube or 60 card formats 💚 want to play hybrid in commander build a commander cube with that style in mind

Most people just decline when this hits the table now but I like this card as a way to help myself but offer ways to help someone else at the table. Especially if you are playing a lower power game where you want everyone to feel like they got to do the thing it can help someone who is behind.
can y’all share your opinions of Tempt With Discovery?
I run it, assuming it’s going to grab a nonbasic, and maybe let a landfycked opponent get back in the game
But I have had folks get uber salty when I cast it.
Far beyond just “everyone vote no” and moving on
And it feels like an overreaction

Working through my bulk and old commander decks to make a new cube this time focused on mechanics and being a 4 player. Going to try to put together a video about the experience but here is a little preview I’ve added a couple old theros path of the hero cards since they make perfect conspiracies
