Another seven Foundations drafts, another three trophies.💪 (Only one of the seven didn't net gems.)

This remains the best draft format of the past five-ish years, and it's supposed to be some kind of perennial core set too. So obviously it returns to Arena far less than any other Standard release.😒

On paper, Magic still knows the difference between a "face-up thing" and a "thing that's face up."

Is a "horizontal heirarchy" an oxymoron plus typo, or is it some entirely new but, presumably, hereditary thing?

Monosists?

Should we be worried that this post is now AWOL? 🤔

Second draft, second trophy, but only 7-2, mainly due to wonky mana base.

First draft with #MTGEternities, first trophy, EZ 7-0.

Secret all-star was Kavaron Turbodrone, enabling all kinds of warp and tapped synergies—all while killing the opponent at speed, whereas station proved a little "stationary" in comparison. (Kavaron itself was still a gas Planet of course.)

Their own card may not be explicit about them being lovers, but the flavor text of this other card here is. (Someone at Wizards once confirmed that it references the same mythical founding daddies of Meletis.)

Actual gayest shit in Magic is the current mulligan rule. (It says you have to put 1, 2, 3 cards on the bottom before taking your 2nd, 3rd, 4th mulligan. So … according to the very rules, almost all players don't bottom enough.)

I started tracking the gold value of my daily quests in 2021. Now it finally happened! I got two 750-gold quests without rerolls on both May 15 and 16 and was successful with the reroll on an old 500 quest on May 15, rendering my May 16 reroll just moot.

I once wrote a piece which needed an example of a card that is valuable but sucks in multiplayer, and I naturally picked Force of Will. I may be principally out of touch, but I do still believe it's the kids who are wrong. 😳

Hey, @support.bsky.team ! Can you maybe make @bsky.app Firefox-compatible? As in, when a user uploads pictures using Firefox, they don't appear all black after posting? (See picture here, uploaded via *shudder* Edge.) That would be cool, and it might even get you more users. 🤔 Thank you! ♥️
