Didn't think I'd get my first 7-0 of the format with this, but sheesh is Katara not okay

3-0-ID at FNM with Cephalid Breakfast. No Nadu means the fair plan sucks again, so we went with Voice of Victory as a Defense Grid on legs to help insulate the combo. Still needs some tweaking, but it felt strong overall

The Avatar mechanics article has an error describing how earthbending works. The comprehensive rules show that the land will return under the control of the player that earthbended their land, not the controller of the land when it died or was exiled. #mtg #MTGxATLA

7-1 in my first draft of the format. Both of the rares were busted, and was surprised how strong earthbending is as a mechanic. Looking forward to drafting a lot more

The big things the Harmony cube currently up on MODO does right

1. The best standalone cards are Swords and Utopia Sprawl, not some individually broken "synergy card" like Esikas Chariot
2. Even the normal decks are synergy engine decks, but every deck is still 20-50% getting it done in combat.

Undefeated at first FNM post ban with UR Delver. Shamelessly stole INF's 5-0 list and ran with it. The deck still definitely isn't fully in my wheelhouse, but it's really strong

Really happy with the Legacy changes today. Still think Tamiyo and something from the colorless piles are in borrowed time, but really excited to see where things go from here

🔥Spicy Decklist Alert🔥

After missing FNM the last two weeks for World Series related reasons, I went undefeated w/ what I'm calling Russian Roulette. Saw the shell a few weeks ago, and cut clunk for Ponder/Flusterstorm. It's a lot of fun to play, and there's room to explore

it’s very smart of the Dodgers to keep running the Shohei Ohtani home run play

I get hating the Dodgers but how do you boo Shohei Ohtani, you've paid through the nose to watch a World Series and are unhappy the greatest player to ever appear in one is going to play in the one you're at?? crazy work

Long shot, but does anyone have a good way to get in touch with Marshall Sutcliffe? A student of mine is working on a year long project in a field Marshall is an expert in, and I was hoping to put the two of them in touch.

This is Brian Merichiko (left) and Dave Crowley (right).

Dave misplaced his Vintage deck filled with cards like Black Lotus at a local restaurant. Brian, an employee there, found the deck and somehow tracked Dave down at the EW and got him his deck back. What an amazing and touching story!

Good luck to all my friends battling at EW this weekend!
