We're excited to announce that due to overwhelming response, we are extending the event to two days! November 9th is now included in the schedule. What do we need?

Hello everyone! As you may know, our friend at @infinitokens.com was recently injured during Magic Con Atlanta. This injury has created some difficulties that may result in a loss of revenue. To support our friend, I have partnered with some others to bring you #NotAFundraiser p1/?

This is such a neat idea! Loved seeing two fantastic brewers discuss each others distinct takes on the same deck.

Two brews, head-to-head! I challenged @manacurves.bsky.social to a Jaws brew-off and we want YOU to choose the winner!

Thanks to my sponsors @moxfield.com @cardtrader.bsky.social and CardConduit for making this video possible:

This looks so good! Also playing on top of the framed mat at events would be a hilarious bit, please consider this for the future.

This is a classic. I used this with new roommates to start boundaries discussions before moving in.

Last day that I will bug everyone about this (because this is the last day of Pizzamas!) but if you want to buy a D&D one shot I wrote with:
- gobs of magic items
- branching paths & areas
- 2 message boards!
- and a sweet & funny little story

Today's your last chance!

What can I say, the man was all charisma and it was a formative time for me.

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 5d

It's none of those. The whole set is Double Dare. Every creature is Marc Summers, every artifact.some intricate slime contraption.

The Foundations box has 10 20-card decks but the OP one has 3 full constructed decks plus the curated upgrade packs, but it is twice the price.

I'd like to look at the tutorial books more (I don't have them), but it looks like they take you through 90% of a game with 2 decks.

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 5d

Could I play my second game without referencing rules? Definitely not. But I have an understanding now of not just turn structure, but different lines you can take with certain resources/blocking/interaction/sequencing, and I want to play again.

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 5d

I bought the One Piece TCG's Learn Together set and I keep thinking about how great an introduction it is.

With 3 scripted turns using 2 of 3 decks, it clearly shows when and how to use each of the main mechanics in the game, lets you loose to finish the match, and has upgrades for all 3 decks.

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 5d

Brave having the least Guild-focused one be your favorite Ravnica set, but I get it. It stands on its own really well.

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 9d

Hell yeah, man! Great job!

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 12d

Ayyyy happy birthday!!!!!

As a T1 Diabetic and a lifelong Magic player, Breakthrough T1D is deeply personal to me.

Vintage vs. Type 1 combines my passion for #MTG with advancing diabetes research and support.

I started it a little over an hour ago and I am having a blast!

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 14d

I think we're reasonably at 5 serious contenders now? Clair Obscur, Blue Prince, Silksong, Hades 2, Death Stranding 2. A lot of folks expecting Ghost of Yotei to be in contention too.

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 14d

Michelle this looks amazing!!!

I was surprised you said that you were since it's a pretty quiet spot with maybe 5 regular posters, but you were so convincing that I believed you!

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 15d

Thanks! And for sure, it's always a pleasure hanging out.

C&C Power Hour @cncpowerhour.com · 15d

Likewise! I think between Thursday and Sunday, we got to chat for maybe ten minutes. But it was lovely to catch up. I am so glad you were able to make it down.

Also these are the only photos on my phone from this weekend.
