I am so sick of people telling me it’s rude to play the Final Fantasy Victory Theme when I win a game

WHY ELSE DID I BUILD 8 FINAL FANTASY DECKS

You’re lucky I don’t play music from the games DURING MATCHES

You are telling me I can play the Chad Kroeger and Josey Scott hit song Hero, when I beat people with my Spider-Man decks?

#tokentober 15 - Artifact - Banana - {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Add {R} or {G}. You gain 2 life.

#mtg #mtgart #magicthegathering

Yellow banana with a smiling face and a golden halo casting a healing spell with its arms. The spell is golden crossed and red and green sparkles. The card reads “Artifact - Banana - {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Add {R} or {G}. You gain 2 life.”

#tokentober day 15: Banana

This (surprisingly) is being one of the most popular tokens recently. I did it pretty much on a whip but it seems like people really like that deck lol.

It is still a tempo loss for the opponents if they play reasonably right? If you are talking cEDH the way manabases are constructed around rocks and rituals you are even more affected by that, because you're less likely to draw lands.

For day 15 of #tokentober I went Bananas... (sorry, for the dad humor) and did the OG Bananas.

(I actually remember very little about the show, but that there were two human sized bananas)

Two anthropomorphic bananas in sleep-wear dancing.

I love it. I tried my hand at a frog lizard the other day for tokentober, but it only ever looked like one or the other. Yours is so well readable

Day 14 of #tokentober I decided to keep it simple and drew an origami crane for a Thopter.

Update:
I kind of fell off the map last week,
TLDR had bronchitis and another one of our Kitties ended up the in the ER :/

That being said I am back to taking more client flow, even though I'm not at 100% quite yet.

I especially have openings Wed, Thu & Fri evening 1/3🧵

Do you think there could be a legit 2-colour blade build, or is that delusional?

merlinkiesel.bsky.social @merlinkiesel.bsky.social · 2d

Who doesn't?

For day 13 of #tokentober I tried adapting Mark Tedin's Eldrazi Spawn looking longingly at his mom caught in the Moon. I realised it's really hard making something sonalien readable, but alas.

This is something I've been pondering a lot. I'd stop buying. Full stop. I am internally cringing at some of the both-sidesing I imagine there would be.

I hope RnD would be able to avoid this. I don't believe anyone in that team would be happy to do it, but people might for their livelyhoods
