⚫🟢⚪They Gain 200 Life...And We Still Win! 😉 | MTG Arena Abzan Standard

PowrDragn @powrdragn.bsky.social · 21h

This Abzan Counters deck is full of awesome, fun cards. It also rolled past opponents at 6-0 in our Standard on the MTG Arena ladder.

I'm thinking of reaching out to some new sponsors. I particularly want to look for a gaming accessories sponsor, but I likely have time and bandwidth for 2-3 general sponsors moving forward.

Who do y'all think I should reach out to?

That's something I think many folks missed with AJ being Taker's last opponent.

It doesn't need to stretch though. All Cena's last year should be is fan service. It's like when Kobe retired. Every arena played a tribute video. Fans bought tickets to see one of the greats, win or lose. Nothing more to come. That's OK.

Lots of fan service for those in the know was a nice touch.

Three Blind Mice is a forgotten card, but this fun Bant deck for Standard plays it alongside a bunch of other enchantments as the way to win on the MTG Arena ladder.

Only gripe was the women's CJ match could've been about 5 minutes longer. But, I imagine with the Cena match and men's CJ match going as long as they did, it was a time constraint.

Oh trust me, even when we've joked about doing it, there were tons of folks riled up to be part of the conversations, so there's be nothing wrong with it being content in that regard.

If people are happy watching us be geeks, that would be the easiest money. 😉

He probably did. And likely believed it until they found a path to rig it. Now you won't hear about again I bet.

So a Felon47 supporter bought Dominion Voting and rebranded it to Liberty Voting.

Y'all know it's rigged now, right?

Bet you forgot how crazy Manifest is. This Standard Simic build plays stupidly large creatures for basically FREE starting turn 2. And Turn three happens a LOT on MTG Arena games.

I don't know about all that. I do know they are missing some of the nicer simpler things in life though.

Sometimes timing just works out.😜

Selesnya Rabbits was still playable, but these additions were surprisingly good and led to a 9-4 record on the MTG Arena ladder.
